A. The refrigerator can be powered by the mains (230V), direct current (12V) or

liquid gas. Select the energy source that you want by means of the energy

source selector switch (A). The switch has four settings:

- direct current (DC) (12V)

- mains supply (230V)

- gas

- switched off

B. The thermostat controls the refrigerator temperature when the refrigerator is

powered from the mains (230 V) or gas. The refrigeration level is indicated by

the dots (the bigger the dot, the colder the setting).

C. The flame meter shows whether the flame is alight. The flame is alight when the

red needle of the meter moves into the green area.

D. Pressing the manual (piezoelectric) starter produces a spark that ignites the

flame in the burner.

4.1.1 Electrical operation

The refrigerator can be powered by electricity in two ways:

- DC (12V): Set the energy source selector switch (A) to

the refrigerator will now be powered by the battery of your car or camper.

Important! - Always use the gas connection or mains voltage to start up the

refrigerator for the first time and to cool it. Powering from the battery of your

vehicle is suitable only for maintaining the temperature of the refrigerator and its

contents once it has been refrigerated.

- When powered by a vehicle battery (12 V) the refrigerator works without

temperature control (i.e. constant operation).

- Mains voltage (230 V): set the power selector switch (A) to

- Set the temperature by means of the thermostat, rotary switch (B). (The bigger

the dot, the colder the setting).

4.1.2 Powering with gas

Warning! - Flammable material must be kept away from the refrigerator.

- For selection of gas type, see the information plate inside your refrigerator.

- For the pressure regulator model, see the information plate inside your

refrigerator and the table at the end of this booklet.

- The type of gas container and its location must be in compliance with the most

recent regulations. Ensure that the unit is installed in a location with good

ventilation and make sure that the ventilation openings in the gas container

storage location remain open.

- The changing of the gas container must be done outside in the open air and out

of reach of any possible sources of ignition.

- You are strongly advised not to use gas to power the refrigerator while you are

driving. If a road accident results in fire, there is a danger of explosion.

- You are strongly advised not to use gas to power the refrigerator in the vicinity

of petrol stations.

1 Open the valve of the gas bottle and the gas taps.

2 Set the Thermostat (B) to the highest level (the biggest dot).

3 Set the energy source selector switch (A) to

4 Ignite the gas flame:

Manual ignition (N80P, N90P, N100P, N112P):

- Press the thermostat (B), and keep it depressed.

- Press the button for manual ignition several times at intervals of between 1 and

2 seconds.

- Release the thermostat when the indicator of the flame meter enters the green

area. If it does not enter the green area, repeat the previous step.

Warning! Never keep the thermostat depressed for longer than 30 seconds. If a

flame does not appear, wait at least five minutes before trying again. If you fail to

observe this rule, there may be an accumulation of gas creating the risk of fire or

explosion.

- Set the desired refrigeration level by means of the thermostat (B). (The bigger

the dot, the colder the setting)

Electrical ignition (N80E, N90E, N100E, N109, N110E, N145E):

- Press the thermostat (B) and keep it depressed.

- Ignition takes place automatically. You will hear a ticking noise. If ignition was

successful, the noise will stop and the flame meter will turn green. Release the

thermostat.

- If the flame goes out, ignition will be repeated automatically.

- Set the desired refrigeration level by means of the thermostat (B). (The bigger

the dot, the colder the setting)

4.2 Switching off the refrigerator

- Set the energy source selector switch (A) to

- The refrigerator is now completely switched off.

- Use the special storage latch on the door locking mechanism to stop the door

from closing. This prevents unpleasant odours and mould in the refrigerator.

Important! If you are not going to use the refrigerator for a prolonged period, close

the valve of the gas bottle and the gas taps.

5 SWITCHING ON THE REFRIGERATOR (control

panel according illustration 7)

- It is recommendable to clean the inside of the refrigerator before you switch on

the refrigerator.

- Let the refrigerator run for at least eight hours before you place food in it for the

first time.

5.1 Smart Energy Selection (SES)

When you start up a refrigerator equipped with Smart Energy Selection (SES) you

should usually select the AUTO mode. The SES system will then automatically

select the best of the three available energy sources.

The system will apply the following priority:

- mains voltage (230 V)

- direct current (12 V)

- liquid gas

If an energy source becomes available that has a higher priority than the source the

refrigerator is currently using (e.g. if your vehicle engine is started), the system will

stop using the current energy source and switch to the energy source with the

higher priority.

If a fault occurs in one or more of the possible energy sources, the system will not

generate an error message while an alternative energy source is still available. The

SES system switches over automatically.

If none of the energy sources is available, the LED of the main switch will turn

from green to red and flash every second.

SES models additionally allow you to select the desired energy source manually.

5.2 Switching on the refrigerator

Important! The memory of the SES system saves every change made to the setting.

Consequently, the SES system will start up on each subsequent occasion in the

last-selected setting.

A = Main switch (on/off)

B = Mode selection switch

C = Cooling level switch

D = Display LED

1. Open the valve of the gas bottle.

2. Open the taps of the gas supply.

3. Press main switch (A). The LED alongside the main switch will turn green.

4. Use the mode selection switch to select the “Auto” function or one of the power

supplies that you want. The LEDs will show the option you have selected.

5. Set the desired cooling level by means of the cooling level selection switch (C).

The LEDs will show the cooling level setting you have selected.

A. Use the main switch to switch the refrigerator on and off. The LED alongside the

main switch will turn green. The display LEDs show the most recent settings.

After 10 seconds the display LEDs will go out. The LED of the main switch

remains green.

B. Press the mode selector switch and the display LEDs will show the setting for 10

seconds. Successively pressing the mode selector switch takes you through the

menu in the following sequence: AUTO, manual DC (12 V), manual gas, manual

mains voltage (230 V) and back to AUTO. Select either the AUTO option or one

of the other power supplies that you want to use. The LEDs show the option you

have selected. If you select the AUTO option, the system will choose the most

suitable power supply and the AUTO LED and the LED of the power supply

chosen by the system will both light up. Ten seconds after release of the mode

selector switch, the system will switch off the LEDs. They will go out.

C. Use the cooling level selector switch to control the temperature of the

refrigerator. When you press the cooling level selector switch, the LED showing

the currently set temperature will light up. Every time you press the cooling level

selector switch you set the refrigerator one position cooler. On reaching the

coldest temperature, the system will start again at the warmest temperature

setting. Ten seconds after release of the cooling level selector switch, the system

will switch off the LEDs. They will go out.

5.3 Powering with electricity

Powering with electricity can be selected both by the Auto mode and manually.

5.3.1 Auto mode

Mains voltage (230 V):

This energy source will be selected if the mains voltage is greater than 200 V. This

power supply requires a continuous current of 12 V to operate the electronic

control system.

Direct current (12V) :

The SES system will select 12 V powering only if a mains voltage (230 V) is
