Pay attention to the maintenance of the rubber door seals. They must always be clean in order to avoid mould.

NOTE: Do not use diluents, petrol, alcohol, kerosene, abrasive detergents, washing powder, acid, chemical products, etc. in order to avoid damaging the plastic. It is discouraged to spray water directly onto the mini-bar. This could cause rusting.

Maintenance

-If the power cable is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer, their after-sales service, or a qualified individual.
-Do not place your mini-bar close to a heat source (e.g. radiator). Keep out of direct sunlight.

In case of malfunction

1. If the mini-bar is not working:

Check if there is a power failure (check the fuses)

Check if it is plugged in.

1. When the mini-bar does not cool sufficiently:

Have you put something hot or too many products in the mini-bar?

Check that the door closes properly

Check that the door seals are not damaged

Check the ventilation surrounding the mini-bar

1. If condensation appears on the outside of the mini-bar, this could be due to excessive humidity in the room (change of temperature). Therefore this is not a sign of malfunction. Please wipe the appliance with a dry cloth.

Advice for reducing your energy consumption

• Take care to maintain a minimum distance between different products when you put them in the mini-bar to allow a good circulation of air.
• Opening the door for too long or too frequently can cause a rise in the temperature of the interior of the mini-bar. For this reason the door must be closed immediately after use.
• Ensure that the door's airtight seal is correctly positioned, and that the appliance's ventilation openings are not obstructed.
• If the layer of ice becomes too thick, this can affect the performance of the mini-bar. When the layer of ice is thicker than 5mm, the appliance must be defrosted.
• The various compartments, trays and shelves are pre-arranged in the optimum layout.
