Environmental notices

Ammonia (a natural compound of hydrogen
and nitrogen) is used in the cooling unit as a
coolant. Non-ozone-hazardous cyclopentane
is used as a propellant for manufacturing PU
foam insulation.

1.9.1 Disposal

In order to ensure that the recyclable packa-
ging materials are re-used, they should be
sent to the customary local collection system.
The appliance should be transferred to a suit-
able waste disposal company that will ensure
re-use of the recyclable components and pro-
per disposal of the rest. For eco-friendly drai-
ning of the coolant from all absorber refrigera-
tion units, a suitable disposal plant should be
used.
Appliances bearing this symbol
must be deposited at the designa-
ted local reception point for the
disposal of electrical and electro-
nic equipment.
It is not permitted that this product
be disposed of by way of the nor-
mal household refuse collection system.
Dometic refrigerators bear this symbol on the
data plate to be found in the interior of the
unit.

1.9.2 Energy-saving-tips

n
At an average ambient temperature of
25°C, it is sufficient to operate the refrigera-
tor at middle thermostat setting.
n
Where possible, always store precooled
products.
n
Do not expose the refrigerator to direct
sunlight or any other heat source (e.g. hea-
ter).
n
Ensure that air circulation of the refrigerati-
on unit is not obstructed.
n
Arrange the shelves evenly in the refrigera-
tor (in the cooling compartment) in order to
achieve the most efficient use of energy.
n
Do not overfill the storage grids and com-
partments to prevent obstructing the inter-
nal air circulation.
n
Maintain a clearance of approx. 10 mm bet-
ween chilled products and post-evaporator
("cooling fins").
n
Defrosting at regular intervals saves energy
(see section Defrosting ).
n
Open the refrigerator door only for a short
period of time when removing products.
n
Run the refrigerator for about 12 hours
before filling it.
