About Your Refrigerator

THIS APPLIANCE IS DESIGNED FOR STORAGE OF FRESH FOODS, STORAGE OF FROZEN FOODS, AND MAKING ICE.

Storage Volume

The model 1082 Free-Standing refrigerator provides 7.5 cubic feet of usable storage volume.

Controls

The Norcold free-standing refrigerator utilizes a single combination control to determine and regulate the mode of operation (Gas and Electric). The control is operated by two control knobs. The first knob selects the operating mode and the second controls the thermostat setting. The control consists of a gas shut-off valve, safety valve, thermostat, and electric interlock. The interlock prevents the possibility of operating on gas and electric at the same time.

During normal operating conditions, set the thermostat at a mid-range setting. When the refrigerator or freezer door is opened frequently or the ambient temperature is higher than 90 degrees, set the thermostat to a colder position.

On initial start up, it is recommended that the refrigerator be empty until the desired temperature is obtained. Cooling to the desired operating temperature will take from eight to twelve hours, depending upon ambient temperatures.
