INSTALLATION
It is advisable to clean the inside of the absorption refrigerator with lukewarm water using a
mild detergent, and then to dry it thoroughly prior to use.
The temperature in the appliance will depend on:
The temperature in the room
The frequency and duration of periods when the door is open.
How many items are in the fridge
It may therefore be necessary to adjust the thermostat from time to time.
The refrigeration system of the cabinet is designed to operate with the cabinet located on a
flat surface. Avoid tilting the cabinet side.
If the cabinet must be tilted on an angle for handling or moving purposes, allow it to sit in an
upright position 20 to 30 minutes prior to plugging it in and starting the cooling of the storage
compartment.
Grounding plug and socket should be provided in accordance with local regulations. The cable-size
should meet the refrigerator’s requirements. The unit must be connected to proper electrical
network, which is shown on the nameplate, through an omnipoplar circuit-breaker. To assure the
proper function of the refrigerator, please observe the following recommended.
1. To ensure the circulation, the unit should be kept at 2 cm, away from the wall.
2. Locate the unit away from direct sunlight. This will enable you to obtain the best performance
and save energy.
3. Under no circumstances should the top grid be covered by any objest. It will preclude the warm
air from circulating.

DÉBALLAGE
Contrôler lors du déballage du minibar que rien ne manque et que tout est en bon état. En cas de
dommages constatés, en avertir immédiatement le transporteur.
INSTALLATION
Pour obtenir un maxium de réfrigération moyennant un minimum de consommation, il convient
d'éviter de placer le minibar à proximité d'une source de chaleur ou de l'exposer directement au
soleil. Il doit être parfaitement de niveau pour garantir de bon fonctionnement du groupe
frigorifique. La grille de ventilation arrière ne doit pas être recouverte et l’arrière du minibar doit
être distante d'au moins 2 cm d'un mur éventuel.
Attention: Si le minibar ne fait pas l'objet d'une installation indépendante, mais et encastré
dans un quelconque élément d'aménagement, il faut prévoir une ventilation
suffisante du group frigorifique, par l'intermédiaire d'orifices d'admission et
d'evacuation d'air d'une surface d'au moins 200 cm2.
NETTOYAGE
Il est recommandé de nettoyer le minibar intérieurement et extérieurement avec de l'eau tiède
(additionnée d'un détergent doux et non abrasif) avant de le mettre en service. Le rincer ensuite à
l'eau et le sécher. Le joint en PVC de la porte ne doit pas être en contact avec l'huile ou la graisse.
Pour lui conserver sa souplesse et en prolonger la durée, le frotter de temps à autre avec du talc, en
particulier du côté des charnières.
Un fois par an nettoyer le groupe frigorifique, au dos de l'appareil avec une brosse ou un chiffon
souple. Ne pas utiliser de lubrifiants conventionnels pour les barillets de serrures, car cela pourrait
nuire à leur bon fonctionnement. S'il est absolument nécessaire de les huiler, recourir à un lubrifiant
spécial pour serrures à barillet.
EQUIPEMENT ÉLECTRIQUE
Le Minibar est pour 230V AC/50Hz. Avant de mettre le minibar en service, contrôler que la tension
indiquée sur la plaque signalétique correspond à celle du secteur, puis brancher le cable
d'alimentation sur une prise reliée à la terre.
Cet appareil est équipé d'une contrôle de temperature. Le thermostat est à régler sur une position
moyenne. Pour abaisser la température dans le compartiment réfrigérateur, tourner le bouton du
thermostat vers la droite.
Il dure environ 4 heures pour obtenir la température.

DÉGIVRAGE - automatique
CHANGEMENT DES CHARNIERES
La porte peut être montée avec ouverture aussi bien à droite qu'à gauche. Pour cela il faut dévisser
les trourillons de charnières et les reviser du côte opposé.
EN CAS DE PANNE
1.Contrôler que le minibar est parfaitement de niveau.
2.Contrôler que l'air circule comme il faut autour du groupe frigorifique.
3.Si le minibar ne fonctionne pas, contrôler le branchement et le fusible.
Attention: Ne pas stocker de produits explosifs (gaz pour briquets, essence, éther etc) dans le
minibar. Le groupe frigorifique au dos de l'appareil dégage de la chaleur lorsqu'il
fonctionne, aussi convient-il de placer le minibar de telle sorte que l'on ne puisse
pas toucher ce groupe, par accident.
Élimination
Quand l’armoire usée doit être éliminée, il doit se passer d’une manière que ne compromet pas
l’environnement. Veuillez prendre note des règles d’élimination et examiner s’il existe des
demandes et conditions spécifiques qu’il faut respecter.
