Caring For Your Carrier
Trouble Shooting
Your vaccine and sample carrier is designed to provide you with many years of service but
there are some simple steps you can take to increase it’s performance and longevity:
• Always unplug the unit before cleaning
• Clean and dry after use with a soft damp cloth. DO NOT use an abrasive cleaner
• Never let water enter the carrier
• The carrier is not designed to carry unpackaged liquids or ice
• Do not run the carrier for long periods of time
• Do not use near heat sources such as direct sun light or close to a radiator
• If ice forms inside the carrier, make sure it is thoroughly defrosted and dried before
further use
• Do not leave plugged into a vehicular power socket when the engine is not running
• Always ensure the front vents are unobstructed and there is a good air ow
• Make sure the carrier is secured when used in a vehicle
• Try to keep the lid closed as much as possible when in operation
• Use the insulation panel to help preserve the interior temperature
• Never use with wet hands or near water
• Always unplug the carrier after use and allow it to get back to room temperature before
storing
• Do not overll the carrier to ensure the contents have a good air ow
My carrier is not working
• Check that the carrier is plugged in and the plug socket is turned on
• Try another appliance in the power socket. If this appliance works but your carrier doesn’t,
please contact your retailer
• If using a vehicle power socket make sure it is not dirty and a good connection is being
made
There is water in my carrier
When used at low temperatures ice can form on the inside of the carrier, especially if used in
unusually high humidity. Simply unplug the carrier from it’s power source and remove the
water and dry fully before using again.
My thermometer shows a dierent temperature to the set point
This is normal. The actual temperature varies in normal operation, especially if the lid is opened
or a large amount of product at room temperature is added to the carrier. To help improve
the stability of the internal temperature it is recommended that you use the insulation pad
included.
