Getting Your Appliance Ready for USE

NOTICE

After the appliance has been delivered, leave it to stand in its upright position for approximately 3 hours, before plugging it into the mains and switching on, to ensure proper performance.

Before placing food in the refrigerator clean the interior well with warm water and baking soda.

Thermostat setting

The thermostat setting will depend on the location of the appliance, room temperature and how often the door is opened. After plugging the appliance into the socket, make sure that the light is on when the door is opened. When starting the appliance for the first time turn the thermostat control to the coldest setting for 24hrs then adjust accordingly. After a few hours have passed, you can place fresh food in the refrigerator compartment and frozen foods into the freezer.

HOW TO USE THE REFRIGERATOR COMPARTMENT...

The temperature control automatically regulates the temperature inside the appliance

It is recommended that a medium setting be used.

To increase the amount of space, optimize arrangement and improve appearance, this appliance has a “cooling area” located within the back panel of the refrigerator com- partment. When the appliance is operating, this panel may be covered with frost or droplets of water depending on whether the compressor is operating or not.

Do not be concerned about this! The refrigerator is oper- ating normally.

If the temperature control is positioned on higher settings while the refrigerator is heavily filled and the ambient tem- perature high, the appliance may run continuously, resulting in the formation of frost on the back cooling area. This will lead to an increase in energy consumption.

To avoid this situation, just turn the temperature control to a lower setting so that the appliance defrosts automatically.
