OPERATION

Setting the temperature

The temperature inside the refrigerator is regulated by a thermostat with 6 temperature positions and one «OFF» (O) position.

Position 1 = minimum cold Position 6 = maximum cold

Turn the thermostat dial to the required position.

An intermediate position is usually the most suitable, although the temperature will be affected by:

Room temperature

How often the door is opened

How much food is stored

Position of the appliance

In determining the correct temperature control setting all these factors have to be considered and some experimentation may be necessary.

When altering the temperature setting, allow 24 hours for the temperature to stablise before making further changes.

Ambient Temperature Switch

The appliance is designed to operate in room temper- atures of 16°C to 32°C, or down to 10°C if the ambi- ent switch is switched on. The ambient switch should be switched on when the room temperature drops below 16°C (the incorporated lamp will illuminate). If the room temperature drops below the above figures the temperature in the freezer may rise above -18°C, then safe storage of frozen food can no longer be guaranteed. It is most likely that the ambient switch will need to be depressed throughout the winter to allow for low overnight temperatures. No damage can be caused by leaving the switch in this position for a periodo of time.

Important

During prolonged periods of abnormally hot weather, if the thermostat is set on too high a number, the cooling system may operate con- tinuously and the fridge cooling plate may not defrost. Turning the knob to a lower number will cause the automatic defrosting to resume.
