Temperature control and
adjustment
•Internal temperature changes of the
refrigerator which consists freezer compartment
and refrigeration compartment can be adjusted
by the thermostat adjustment knob on the
illuminated panel.
Operating temperatures are controlled by the
thermostat knob (Fig. 2-3) and may be set at
any position between MIN. and MAX. (the
coldest position).
The average temperature inside the fridge
should be 5°C.
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.
•Refrigeration compartment temperature
adjustment
The temperature of the refrigeration
compartment depends on the amount of air
coming from the freezer compartment. You
can make the temperature adjustment of the
refrigeration compartment by bringing the
adjuster that is placed on the back wall of the
refrigeration compartment between “1” and
“5”positions. (Fig. 3)
Please note that the freezer compartment
stops working if the thermostat knob is settled
to “0” position.
Important !
•The temperature of freezer compartment is
affected by environmental conditions and upper
compartments.
•When the temperatures of the freezer and
refrigeration compartments are adjusted to
maximum, food stored just below the adjuster
of the refrigeration compartment may freeze.
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).
