1.0INTRODUCTION

You have made an excellent choice by choosing the Dometic miniBar.

We are convinced that you will be satisfied with your new appliance in every way. Silent in operation, the miniBar fulfils high quality standards and guarantees

an efficient use of resources and energy during its entire working life, i.e. during manufacturing, use and disposal.

Please study the installation and operating instructions carefully before attempting to operate the miniBar.

2.0FOR YOUR SAFETY

2.1Warnings and Safety Advice

In the interests of children's safety:

When disposing of the refrigerator, remove all doors and leave the shelves inside. This prevents children from being accidentally trapped or suffocated in the refrigerator.

Never open the cooling unit - it is under high pressure.

Never store explosive substances, such as lighter fuel, petrol, ether or similar products in the miniBar.

The minibar is not suitable for the proper storage of medications.

The miniBar must be installed in such a way that accidental contact with the cooling unit (which heats up when in use) is impossible.

The appliance has to be connected to a properly earthed socket in line with the relevant valid country regulations.

Servicing must only be carried out by authorised service personnel.

2.2Coolants

Ammonia is used as a coolant.

This is a natural compound also used in household cleaning agents (1 litre of Salmiak cleaner contains up to 200g of ammonia - about twice as much as is used in the refrigerator). Sodium chromate is used for corrosion protection (less than 2% of the coolant).

If a leak occurs (which can be easily detected due to the unpleasant smell):

Switch the device off (pull mains plug, if applicable);

Ventilate room thoroughly.

Inform hotel personnel.

For the safety of hotel guests and personnel, it has been established by inspectors that the coolant poses no threat to health.

3.0WARRANTY AND CUSTOMER SERVICE

Warranty arrangements are in accordance with EC Directive 44/1999/CE and the normal conditions applicable for the country concerned.

For warranty or other servicing, please contact our Dometic Service department. Any damage due to improper use is not covered by the warranty. The warranty does not cover any modifications to the appliance or the use of non-original Dometic parts; the warranty does not apply if the installation and operating instructions are not adhered to and no liability shall be entertained. Parts can be ordered throughout Europe from our Dometic Service department.
