Temperature control

and adjustment

Operating temperatures are controlled by the

thermostat knob (Fig. 2) and may be set at

any position between 1 and 5 (the coldest

position).

The average temperature inside the fridge

should be around +5°C (+41°F).

Therefore adjust the thermostat to obtain the

desired temperature. Some sections of the

fridge may be cooler or warmer (such as salad

crisper and top part of the cabinet) which is

quite normal. We recommend that you check

the temperature periodically with a thermometer

to ensure that the cabinet is kept to this

temperature. Frequent door openings cause

internal temperatures to rise, so it is advisable

to close the door as soon as possible after use.

Before operating

Final Check

Before you start using the appliance check that:
1.

The feet have been adjusted for perfect

levelling.
2.

The interior is dry and air can circulate freely

at the rear.
3.

The interior is clean as recommended under

"Cleaning and care.”
4.

The plug has been inserted into the wall

socket and the electricity is switched on. When

the door is open the interior light will come on.

And note that:
5.

You will hear a noise as the compressor

starts up. The liquid and gases sealed within

the refrigeration system may also make some

(noise), whether the compressor is running or

not. This is quite normal.
6.

Slight undulation of the top of the cabinet

is quite normal due to the manufacturing process

used; it is not a defect.
7.

We recommend setting the thermostat knob

midway and monitor the temperature to ensure

the appliance maintains desired storage

temperatures (See section Temperature Control

and Adjustment).
8.

Do not load the appliance immediately it is

switched on. Wait until the correct storage

temperature has been reached. We recommend

checking the temperature with an accurate

thermometer (see; Temperature Control and

Adjustment).
