Ice pack
If a power failure or malfunction occurs, the ice packs
can be used to slow down the thawing process.
The longest storage time is obtained by placing the ice
pack directly on the food in the top compartment.
The ice packs can also be used to cool food temporarily,
e.g. in a cold bag.
Active carbon filter
The activated carbon filter ensures that air is replaced
and odors reduced in the appliance. See chapter
