4.0 Refrigerator operation

The refrigerator is equipped to operate on
three power modes:
Mains voltage (230V AC)
Direct-current voltage (12V DC)
Gas (liquid gas propane/butane)
Select the desired power mode by the MODE
button (MES, AES). Appliances with automa-
tic energy selection (AES) are additionally pro-
vided with "automatic mode" function. The
AES system automatically selects the best
energy source for each particular situation.

Cleaning

Before starting up the refrigerator, it is recom-
mended that you clean it inside and repeat this
at regular intervals.
Use a soft cloth and lukewarm water with a mild
detergent. Then wipe out the appliance with
clean water and dry thoroughly.
To avoid material alterations, do not use soap or
hard, abrasive or soda-based cleaning agents.
Do not allow the door seal to come into contact
with oil or grease.
4.2
We recommend maintenance following an exten-
ded shutdown of the vehicle. Please contact our
customer services.
