OPERATING YOUR APPLIANCE

Temperature Control

Your appliance has only one control for regulating the temperature in the fresh food and the freezer compartment. The temperature control is located on the upper right hand side of the fresh food section.

The range of the temperature control is from position"OFF" the warmest to "6" the coldest.

The first time you turn the unit on set the temperature control to “6” or the max-position.

After 24 to 48 hours, adjust the temperature control to the setting that best suites your needs. The setting of “4” should be correct for home or office appliance use.

Changes of the ambient temperature affect temperature in the interior of the appliance (choose correct setting of the thermostat knob).

To turn the thermostat off, turn the temperature control to "OFF".

NOTE:

Turning the temperature control to "OFF" position stops the cooling cycle but does not shut off the power to the appliance.

If the unit is unplugged, power lost, or turned off; you must wait 3 to 5 minutes before restarting the unit. If you attempt to restart before this time delay, the appliance will not start.
