3. Cleaning

Clean the refrigerator thoroughly at intervals, as necessary. Remove the shelves; these, the cabinet interior and the door should be washed with a warm solution of sodium bi-carbonate. Finally wipe over with a cloth rinsed in warm water only, and dry with a clean cloth. Do not wash any plastic parts in water that is more than hand warm, and do not expose them to dry heat. The outside of the cabinet should be

wiped down regularly with a clean, damp cloth.

NEVER USE STRONG CHEMICALS OR ABRASIVE CLEANING MATERIALS ON ANY PART OF THE CABINET.

4. Positioning the appliance

When first using this refrigerator please consider the following points:

ENSURE REFRIGERATOR IS LEVEL

THE PIPEWORK AT THE BACK GETS HOT IN USE

THE REFRIGERATOR HAS NO 'MOTOR' AND IS THEREFORE VIRTUALLY SILENT

ALLOW AT LEAST 3 HRS. FOR SIGNS OF COOLING

During the refrigeration process, the appliance gives off heat from the condenser (under the upper part of the rear cover) into the surrounding air. The more ventilated the condenser is, the more

effective the refrigeration will be.

The other condition for satisfactory operation is that the appliance stands on a flat surface. This is best seen by placing a glass of water on top of the appliance.

It is important that the appliance is not directly exposed to radiated heat (sunlight, radiator, near an oven, etc.).

Please do not place the refrigerator onto thick carpet!

4.1. Installation instructions

This version is supposed to be freestanding. Cooling unit room cover protects from the hot parts of the cooling unit. Foot frame with grilles ensures sufficient ventilation.

5. Using the appliance

To start the refrigerator connect the plug to the socket outlet and switch on the socket. The cooling fins should show signs of cooling after about 1-2 hours depending on ambiant temperature.

5.1. Initial operation

The device must be plugged into a properly earthed socket.

The miniCool starts automatically with a self-test. The LED illuminates after plugging-in several times and after that continuous light can be seen if the door is open.

The miniCool achieves its operating temperature after several hours.

5.2. Temperature regulation

The usual setting required is in the region of the middle of the thermostat knob (Fig. 6), but this can vary with conditions of load and installation. If it is found necessary to alter the setting,the knob can be turned to a higher symbol to produce a colder temperature, or a lower symbol to produce a warmer temperature. The effect of any adjustment can be checked by means of a thermometer after leaving the refrigerator operating for a further period to settle down again.

6. Thermometer (Fig. 4)

Refer to the separate instruction leaflet supplied with the thermometer. The thermometer can be stood up using the attached stand or alternatively it can be fixed to the refrigerator door, in which case the sensor wire should be arranged so that it is not stretched or damaged when the door is opened.

The temperature sensor is located inside the refrigerator in the upper left corner in front of the evaporator.

The display will then show the current, maximum and minimum temperature inside the refrigerator.

After the first pull down of the refrigerator (allow four hours) please make a "reset" on the thermometer because otherwise it will keep as "maximum" the ambient temperature.

If you find lower than +2 °C or even negative temperature as a minimum on the screen, it must have occured due to a cutout in the electrical circuit. In these circumstance's the electronic thermostat will make a restart and start to cool down the refrigerator, without monitoring the refrigerator for 45 minutes. If you reset the thermometer again (1-2 hours later) and the normal +2 ... +8 °C is shown then you can be sure that the medincines have not been damaged or frozen.

The more medicines you store in the refrigerator then reduces the hazard of freezing, if the unit has a short period of time undercooling.

We take no responsibility for damage to vaccines through freezing, if there has been a cutout in the electricity for a short period of time.

It is important to reset the thermometer regularly to ensure that the temperature is maintained between 2 °C and 8 °C.
