How do I use one of
your refrigerated vans or trailers?
When you rent from Petit Forestier, you can count on the expertise of the “Refrigerated Rental Company”.
Here are a few tips on how to get the most out of our refrigerated vans and trailers.
Vehicle
- Make sure that the rear doors are properly closed before you drive off.
- Remember to remove the key from the ignition whenever you exit the vehicle.
You are not insured against theft if you have left your vehicle parked with the key in the ignition. - Avoid parking your refrigerated van or trailer in direct sunlight for prolonged periods.
- The tailgate lift works off the vehicle battery.
Avoid using it too frequently whenever the engine is switched off.
Refrigeration Unit
- With the engine switched off, the refrigeration unit must be plugged in to operate. Use the extension leads issued for this purpose.
- Avoid opening the rear doors for long periods to preserve the cold temperature inside the refrigerated van.
