Measures for energy conservation

Measures for energy conservation
The most important energy conservation measure is that the drawer fridge door not left open, this will cause increased running time and increased energy consumption.
Having good order and organization in your drawer fridge will save you much searching and time, and you will reduce the running time and energy consumption.

• Install the product in a well-ventilated room. Make sure it is installed so that it is not in direct sunlight or near a heat source.
• Hot foods should always be cooled before it is inserted as this increases the frost formation and increases the running time. Frozen food can be advantageously thawed in the product.
• The food will thaw more gently and frozen food will emit refrigerant to the product and this will save travel time and energy.
• Do not fill the drawers with too much merchandise, it is important to have good air circulation to cool the food in the best possible way.
• Avoid that the drawers are open over time, place the goods so you can easily reach what you need.
• Clean the magnetic strip around the drawer regularly to prevent them from getting dirty and make sure they are not broken so that cold air is released.

Delivery terms and conditions

Delivery terms and conditions for Norway. For other countries, contact your dealer.
11.1 Consumer purchases
These terms and conditions govern customer rights with respect to the supplier (Norcool) when purchasing new Norcool products that will be used in a normal manner in private housekeeping. Such as is determined in the following points, the supplier is obligated to remedy defects/omissions that arise.

1. Supplier’s warranty
   The supplier warrants that the product as it is delivered has the characteristics and the quality that has been prescribed in the supplier’s brochures or other written sales material. Minor deviations may occur in consequence of product changes. The warranty period runs for 2 years commencing on the day the product was delivered to the customer. Due to these devices having a complicated technical design, it is important that the customers follow the instructions for use carefully. The products will even with normal use be subjected to wear that may necessitate preventive maintenance, and thereby also replacement of wearing components (fans, starting equipment, compressor component with a variable lifespan depending upon their use and maintenance).

2. Purchaser’s rights
   The deadline for making claims with consumer purchases is 2 years. When the equipment or parts of it is intended to last significantly longer in normal use, the deadline for claims is 5 years. For such claims, it is a precondition for the liability for the deficiency to be valid that the deficiency was present at the point in time of delivery. Customers will in all instances lose their right to pursue claims if they do not make a claim within a reasonable period of time after they have detected, or ought to have detected, the deficiency. In the event of deficiencies related to purchasing law, the supplier has the right to repair the product with the deadlines that follow from the Sale of Goods Act. After the warranty period has expired, the terms and conditions for the scope of the supplier’s liability for deficiencies in the equipment will be governed by the Sale of Goods Act.

3. Supplier’s remediation (transport of products)
   The supplier and/or dealer in the supplier’s products may decide whether defects/ omissions may be repaired at the customer site, at its own site, or at a designated workshop in accordance with the following guidelines.
   a) The customer is obligated to place the product at the disposition of the repair technician. The supplier will defray the expenses of the repairs. this applies for products that are located within the natural sales territory of the supplier or distributor! What is meant by natural sales territory is a distance between the supplier/ dealer and customer by road of max. 20 km. If the distance is more than 20 km, and the dealer is the entity located closest to the customer, then the supplier will pay the travel costs regardless. If this would bring about unreasonable costs or drawbacks, then the obligation to undertake the remediation as mentioned above at no cost to the customer does not apply!
   Normally, this instance would be if the customer is unable to be reached by normal means of communication, and/or if the customer does not live where there is a connection to the mainland.
   b) Repairs/Remediation at the workshop. If customers can bring in and fetch the product without significant drawbacks, then they must bring it in to the designated workshop for repairs, or ship the product, in such case at their own expense and risk. If customers are unable to bring the product in to a specified workshop without unreasonable drawbacks and/or costs, then such in the lack of any other agreement occur in the most reasonable manner, and be sent at the supplier’s expense and risk to the specified workshop.
   NOTE: THE PRODUCT MUST BE PROPERLY PACKAGED!
   

4. Supplier’s liability to pay compensation
   Customers may under more detailed terms and conditions demand compensation for financial losses pursuant to the rules of the Sale of Goods Act. The Supplier is however in no instance liable for indirect losses (as mentioned in the Sale unable Goods Act, section 67(2)). If damage is inflicted on objects that have a direct or close interrelationship with the product’s stipulated function or use, then the supplier is only liable to the extent such are consequences of rules of law that cannot be deviated from. The same applies for liability for personal injuries. Damages and injuries of this nature shall in every instance be handled between the supplier and customer.

5. What the supplier’s liability does not encompass
   Customers have no ability to pursue claims against the supplier or dealer if defects/ omissions, or any possible damages/injuries, are a consequence of:
   a) Installation that has not been performed in accordance with the electric utility’s provisions or is in violation of our installation instructions that are to be deemed to be requirements. The cold room bust in terms of its technical construction satisfy the applicable requirements, including requirements for insulation, choice of materials and ventilation.
   b) Actions in violation of the instructions for use, or other indefensible actions. (Lack of maintenance!)
   c) Repairs or interventions performed by unauthorised persons, or use of non- original parts.
   d) Accidents or other circumstances after delivery to the customer that lie outside the control of the supplier/dealer, including voltage fluctuations beyond +/- 10 % of the rated voltage, lightning strikes, and electrical power outages.
   e) Corrosion/deposits due to the surroundings.
   f) Normal wear. (See point 1)

6. Disputes
   Disputes that concern the application of these terms and conditions may, via the consumer council’s complaints mechanism, be brought in for resolution by the industry’s complaints tribunal.

11.2 Business purchase
What is to be understood by business purchase is everything that is not a consumer purchase and which is used for example in cafes, restaurants, snack bars, hotels, motels, companies, or other business-related activity. As well as use in schools, institutions, rented rooms, preschools, athletics facilities, shared households, and housing cooperatives, plus instances where the customer in full or in part receives payment for use of the device, or where it is included in a shared house, possibly a leasing relationship. Or where the device is used to maintain a good that the customer sells. All these things are business purchases. The period for filing claims and the warranty period is then 6 months. This applies for any losses that the deficiency might cause, for example such as operating losses, lost earnings and other consequential financial losses. This limitation to the supplier’s liability does not apply if it is guilty of acting with gross negligence.
