STARTING
Final Check
Before you start using the refrigerator check that:
1.The front feet have been adjusted so the appliance is level.
2.The interior is dry and air can circulate freely.
3.Clean the interior as recommended under "CLEANING AND CARE."
4.Insert the plug into the wall socket and switch on the electricity supply. When the door is open the interior light will come on.
5.You will hear a noise as the compressor starts up. The liquid and gases sealed within the refrigeration system may also give rise to noise, whether the compressor is running or not which is quite normal.
6.We recommend that you set the thermostat knob at 3 (three) and monitor the temperature to ensure the appliance maintains desired storage temperatures (See section Temperature Control and Adjustment).
7.Do not load the appliance immediately it is switched on. Wait until the correct storage temperature has been reached. We recommend that you check the temperature with an accurate thermometer (see; Temperature Control and Adjustment).
Important Note :
Ice formation at the back is normal, do not worry. (See Defrosting)
DEFROSTING | 2 | |
The larder refrigerator defrosts | 1 | |
automatically. The defrosting water runs to |
| |
the drain tube via a collection channel (1) |
| |
and is evaporated in a special container |
| |
at the back of the appliance (see diagrams). |
| |
Ensure that the container is fixed properly | Special Container | |
above the compressor. | ||
|
During defrosting water droplets may form |
| |
at the back of the larder refrigerator where |
| |
concealed evaporator is located. Some |
| |
droplets may remain on the liner and |
| |
refreeze when defrosting is completed. Do | Compressor | |
not use pointed or sharp edged objects | ||
| ||
such as knives, forks to remove the droplets which have refreezed. | ||
If at any time the defrost water does not drain from the collection channel, check to ensure that no food particles have blocked the drain tube. The drain tube can be cleared by pushing the special plastic plunger provided down the drain tube
(2).
