Frequently Asked Questions - BC 189 CEEM

How do I adjust the temperature of my BC 189 beverage cooler?

Turn the thermostat knob to a higher number for lower temperature (colder) and a lower number for higher temperature (warmer). The recommended setting is Mid-range. "OFF" stops the compressor.

Can I reverse the door swing?

Yes, the door is reversible. Follow the instructions in the manual: remove axle sleeves, hinges, and stoppers, then reinstall them on the opposite side. This requires careful disassembly.

How many cans can the BC 189 hold?

The cooler can hold up to 115 standard 355ml (12oz) cans. Actual capacity may vary with larger cans.

What should I do if the cooler is not working?

First, check if it is plugged in and the power supply is working. Ensure the temperature control knob is not set to "OFF". Also check for tripped circuit breaker. If the compressor runs continuously, it may be due to high ambient temperature or frequent door openings.

How do I clean the beverage cooler?

Unplug the cooler. Clean interior with a solution of two tablespoons of baking soda and a quart of warm water. Wipe with soft cloth. Clean shelves with soapy water. Exterior can be wiped with mild detergent. Do not use abrasive or organic solvents.

Are there any safety warnings I should know?

Yes, the cooler uses flammable refrigerant and insulation. Keep ventilation openings clear, do not damage refrigerant circuit, and do not use electrical appliances inside. Also, prevent child entrapment by removing doors if discarding the appliance.

Is the refrigerant flammable?

Yes, the refrigerant and cyclopentane foaming material are flammable. Do not expose to flame or dispose of by combustion.

What climate class is the BC 189 suitable for?

The manual does not specify a particular climate class for this model, but it is intended for household use. The climate classes range from SN (+10 to +32°C) to T (+16 to +43°C). Ensure the ambient temperature is within a reasonable range.

Can I store other beverages besides cans?

The cooler is designed for beverage storage, primarily cans and bottles. It can store other sealed beverages, but avoid overloading and ensure proper air circulation.

How do I dispose of the beverage cooler?

Follow local regulations. The refrigerant and insulation are flammable, so it must be recovered by a qualified company. Remove the door and shelves to prevent child entrapment before disposal.
