Temperature control

The temperature within the refrigerator is
controlled by the thermostat situated in the top of
the refrigerator.

To operate the refrigerator proceed as follows:

Position 1 = minimum coldness

Position 5 = maximum coldness

Turn the thermostat control knob beyond the «

»

position.

When you first start the refrigerator, we suggest
that you turn the thermostat control to a medium
setting.

For easier turning of this control, use a small coin.

However, if the appliance is working in unfavourable
room conditions such as

- poor ventilation,

-

high temperature,

-

frequent door openings,

it may be necessary to select a more suitable
setting.

Fresh food refrigeration

To obtain the best performance, do not store warm
food or evaporating liquids in the refrigerator; do
cover or wrap the food, particularly if it has a strong
flavour.

Do not cover the shelves with any protective
material, such as paper, cardboard or plastic, which
may obstruct the air circulation through them.

To help you use your refrigerator correctly, here are
some more useful hints:

Raw meat (beef, pork, lamb & wild fowl): wrap in
polythene bags and place on top of the salad
crispers.

Meat can only be stored safely in this way for
one or two days at the most.

Fruit & vegetables: these should be thoroughly
cleaned and placed in the bottom salad crispers.

Butter & cheese: these should be placed in special
airtight containers or wrapped in aluminium foil or
polythene bags to exclude as much air as possible.

Milk bottles: these should have a cap and should
be stored in the bottle rack on the door.

Using the fridge

Before use

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.

Normal Operating Sounds

You may hear faint gurgling or bubbling sounds
when the refrigerant is pumped through the coils
or tubing at the rear, to the cooling
plate/evaporator or to the fixed freezer shelves.

When the compressor is on, the refrigerant is
being pumped round, and you will hear a whirring
sound or pulsating noise from the compressor.

A thermostat controls the compressor, and you
will hear a faint ’click’ when the thermostat cuts
in and out.
