TEMPERATURE CONTROL AND ADJUSTMENT
Operating temperatures are controlled by the thermostat knob (see diagram) located on the
ceiling of fridge compartment. Settings may be made from
MIN
, 1 …
MAX
,
MAX
being the
coldest position.
When the appliance is switched on for the first time, the thermostat should be adjusted so that
after 24 hours, the average fridge temperature is no higher than +5°C (+41°F). We recommend
you set the thermostat half way between the
MIN
and
MAX
setting and monitor to obtain the
desired temperature i.e. towards
MAX
you will obtain a colder fridge temperature and vice
versa. Some sections of the fridge may be cooler or warmer (such as the salad crisper and the
top part of the cabinet) which is quite normal.
The normal storage temperature of the freezer should be -18°C (0°F). Lower temperatures
may be obtained by adjusting thermostat knob towards
MAX
position.
We recommend that you check the temperature with an accurate thermometer to ensure that
the storage compartments are kept to the desired temperature. Remember you must take your
reading very quickly since the thermometer temperature will rise very rapidly after you remove
it from the freezer. Please remember each time the door is opened cold air escapes and the
internal temperature rises. Therefore never leave the door open and ensure it is closed
immediately after food is put in or removed.
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).
