OPERATION

Before use

Remove all securing tapes. Wash inside the
appliance with lukewarm water and bicarbonate of
soda (5 ml to 0.5 litre of water). Do not use soap or
detergent as the smell may linger. Dry thoroughly.

Setting the temperature

The temperature inside the refrigerator is regulated by
a thermostat control knob with 6 temperature
positions and one «OFF» (O) position.
Position 1 = minimum coldness
Position 6 = maximum coldness
Turn the thermostat control knob to the required
position.
An intermediate position is usually the most suitable,
although the temperature will be affected by:

l

Room temperature

l

How often the door is opened

l

How much food is stored

l

Position of the appliance

In determining the correct temperature control setting
all these factors have to be considered and some
experimentation may be necessary.

When altering the temperature setting, allow 24 hours
for the temperature to stablise before making further
changes.

Important

During prolonged periods of abnormally hot

weather, if the thermostat is set on too high a
number, the cooling system may operate
continuously and the fridge cooling plate may
not defrost. Turning the knob to a lower number
will cause the automatic defrosting to resume.
If you wish to return to a lower temperature,
turn the thermostat knob to a higher number,
however you should turn the setting lower
occasionally to allow automatic defrosting.
