3 Notes for the customer 3.1 Purpose of the operating manual This operating manual contains important information for safe, correct and economical operation of the device. Observing the instructions will help to avoid dangers, reduce repair and increase the reliability and prolong the service life of the device. Danger! Please keep the manual for future use. 3.
4 Basic safety instructions A basic prerequisite for safe handling and trouble-free operation of this device is acquaintance with the basic safety instructions. It is not permitted to use the device for a purpose other than that stipulated by the manufacturer. Danger! Keep children away from the device at all times! Never open the housing of the device. Repair work on the device may only be carried out by Tec4med LifeScience GmbH or by authorised workshops.
5 Description of the device 5.1 Functional description The unit is suitable for both mobile and stationary use. It can cool goods down to max. 28 C below ambient temperature or it can heat goods up to max. 65 °C. In principle, NelumBox® is designed for the temperature ranges 2-8 °C, 15-25 °C and 37 °C. The unit is a wear-free Peltier cooling (thermoelectric cooling) device with heat dissipation by a fan. The use of the device can be carried out at up to 80% outside air humidity.

6 Commissioning and operation Before commissioning, make sure that the supply cable and the plug are dry. Danger! • If the unit shows visible damage, it must not be put into operation. • Do not use any electrical equipment inside the unit, unless this electrical equipment is recommended by the manufacturer. • Do not place the unit near naked flames or other heat sources (heating, strong sunlight, gas oven, heater, etc.).
6.2 Tips for saving energy A fan inside the unit circulates the air inside the chamber, resulting in better cooling / heating performance. • Choose a well-ventilated place protected from solar irradiation. • Do not open the unit more often than necessary. • Do not leave the unit open longer than necessary. • Once attached to the power grid, NelumBox® switches to AC-mode. In AC-mode, Nelumbox constantly keeps the temperature at the most efficient level to increase the runtime in mobile mode.
• Yellow: When attempting to open the door via button, but RFID is required. / Battery lower than 10%. / If the temperature deviates by up to +/-0.5°C, after reaching the target temperature range. / Door is opened longer than 22 seconds. 6.5 Connecting/ switching on NelumBox® Make sure that only items or goods that may be cooled or heated to the selected temperature are stored in the device. Warning! • Place the unit on a firm base. • Close the door.
6.6 Opening / closing NelumBox® NelumBox® is equipped with an electronic access control using RFID technology (optional). If the electronic lock is activated, the door can only be unlocked by RFID tokens/cards or via NFC. NelumBox® can only be opened when switched on (exception: emergency release; see chapter 6.4.1). To unlock NelumBox®, hold the RFID token/card to designated area at the front of the device. Successfully unlocking NelumBox® is confirmed by a green light on the buttons and via the display.
6.6.1 Emergency release In cases of emergency, NelumBox® can also be opened without power supply via cable / battery. In order to unlock NelumBox® via the emergency release mechanism, push through the sealed opening and trigger the emergency button on the downside of NelumBox® using a suitable device (e.g. a long pen). You can now open the door manually. 6.7 Transporting and storing NelumBox® • If the unit shows visible damage, it must not be put into operation.
6.8 Switching temperature profiles The control of the unit has a memory function: it remembers the selected temperature range for each mode (2-8 °C, 15-25 °C, 37 °C) once the device is shut off. The previously selected temperature range is set each time the unit is switched on. The selected temperature range is indicated by a white background at the top of the display. The basic settings are cold chain „2-8 °C“, ambient „15-25 °C“ and incubation „37 °C“.
• The heating process is indicated by a wave icon. • The cooling process is indicated by a crystal icon. • Once Nelumbox® has reached the designated temperature range and leaves the area, a temperature warning occurs. Hereby, Nelumbox® shows “Temperature Warning” (level 1) / “Temperature Alert” (level 2), the buttons start to flash in yellow / red and a warning sound appears, increasing in intensity. The sound can be disabled by pressing one of the buttons.
6.9 Running on power supply • NelumBox® is operated via the included power supply with the respective country adapter (100 - 240 V AC). • NelumBox® indicates the state of charge independent of its charging level by the appearance of power plug icon in the battery symbol. • If NelumBox® is switched off, it is not possible to charge the batteries. Leave NelumBox® switched on to charge the batteries. • If there is no charging in progress, the battery status is displayed as a percentage.
6.10 Switching batteries To operate Nelumbox® properly, the system must either be powered by mains power or by charged batteries. If both batteries are removed at the same time without mains power, Nelumbox® immediately switches off completely! Under certain circumstances, this may lead to damage to the loaded goods. Use Nelumbox® only with batteries provided and approved by the manufacturer. The use of other types of batteries can lead to failure or severe damage to the device.
• Nelumbox® indicates the battery being due for change on the display by indicating either “I” or “II” within the changing icon. • Please make sure to switch the correct battery. battery I battery II • Do not change the batteries at the same time to maintain the function of the Nelumbox®. First replace the first accumulator with a fully charged system before replacing the other accumulator with a fully charged system.
7 Cleaning and care Always disconnect the unit from the power supply or remove the batteries before cleaning and maintenance. Danger! Never clean the unit under running water or in rinse water. Do not use strong cleaning agents or hard objects for cleaning, as these can damage the device. • Clean the inside and outside of the unit occasionally with a damp cloth.
8 Troubleshooting and disposal Electronic equipment may not be disposed of with household waste! The insulation of the unit contains flammable cyclopentane and requires a special disposal process. Dispose the unit properly at the end of its service life. The RRC-Li-Ion batteries are part of the GRS-battery system and can be returned at any GRS collecting point globally. Returning the batteries is free of charge! For more information visit: www.grs-batterien.
