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 ÒOFFÓ (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:
Ð room temperature
Ð how often the door is opened
Ð how much food is stored
Ð 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 Ambient Temperature Switch
To ensure that the appliance is working efficiently

when the room temperature drops below 16¡C, the

switch mounted next to the thermostat control should

be switched on.
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

When freezing large amount of fresh food turn the

thermostat to maximum approximately 1 hour prior to

freezing. When the food is frozen return thermostat

to normal position .
In any 24 hours you can freeze up to 3.5 kg. of fresh

food.
Place food to be frozen in the upper drawer of the

freezer as this is the coldest part.
To guarantee a good operation of the appliance

during normal use, the drawers should not be

removed.
