OPERATION

Before using

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 and the freezer is regulated by a single thermostat with 6 temperature positions and an “OFF” (O) position.

Position 1 = minimum coldness

Position 6 = maximum coldness

Turn the thermostat dial to the required position.

The intermediate position is usually the most suitable (3-4).

The thermostat setting can vary as the temperature inside the refrigeration compartment depends on the following factors:

–room temperature

–how often the door is opened

–how much food is stored

–position of the appliance

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.

Low Room Temperature Switch

When the room temperature is + 16° C or less, the Low Room Temperature Switch, located next to the thermostat control knob, must be switched on to maintain the correct temperatures inside the fridge and freezer compartments.

Please note that in this setting the interior light will remain on, even if the door is closed.

No damage can be caused by leaving the switch in this position for any period of time (see page 10 Low ambient operation). However should the temperature rise above 16°C remember to turn the switch off again.

The freezer compartment

The four-star freezer compartment is suitable for storage of commercially frozen food and for freezing fresh foods.

Freezing fresh food

It is not necessary to adjust the thermostat setting when freezing fresh food. Depress the ambient switch at least 12 hours before loading food to be frozen.

In any 24 hours you can freeze up to 6 kg. of fresh food.

Place food to be frozen in the bottom drawer of the freezer as this is the coldest part.

Caution

In the event of a power cut do not open the door. The food in the freezer will not be affected if the power cut is short and if the freezer is full. Should the food begin to thaw, it must be consumed quickly and must not be re-frozen
