HOW TO START THE REFRIGERATOR
Leveling
In the boiler ammonia vapor is distilled from an ammonia-water
mixture and carried to the finned condenser, where it tiiuifies.
The liquid flows to the evaporator, where it creates cold by
evaporating into a circulating flow of hydrogen gas. If the evapo-
rator coil is not level the liquid readily accumulates, forming pock-
ets which can impair the gas circulation or even block it, in which
case, of course, the cooling will stop.
If the refrigerator is properly installed, e e the freezer shelf paral-
lel to the floor, the refrigerator will then also perform well.
Gas Operation (Fig. 4)
1. To start the refrigerator turn the knob A to position “GAS”.
2. Turn the thermostat knob B to setting 4.
Push the button C to stop and push the button D of the piezo
igniter. The pushing has to be repeated until the gas is lit at
the burner. This can be observed through the reflector E.
4. After the gas is lit keep the button C pushed for 10 seconds.
Release the button and check through the reflector that the
burner flame stays burning. If not repeat the lighting proce-
dure.
To shut off the‘refrigerator turn the knob A to off position.
NOTE: As soon as the necessary cold temperature in inside
the cabinet has been reached, adjust the thermostat
knob to required setting.
Electric Operation (Fig 4)
1. Check that the attachment plug is correctly connected to the
main supply.
2. Turn the knob A to desired position for electric operation.
3. Turn the thermostat knob B to setting 4.
To shut off the refrigerator turn the knob A to off position.
HOW TO USE THE REFRIGERATOR
Food Storage Compartment
The food storage compartment is completely closed and
unventilated, whiih is necessary to maintain the required low
temperature for food storage. Consequently foods having a
strong odor or liable to absorb odors should be covered. Vege-
tables, salads etc should be covered to retain their crispness.
The coldest positiins in the refrigerator are underneath the cool-
ing evaporator and at the bottom of the refrigerator, and the least
cold positions are on the upper door shelves. This should be
considered when diierent types of food are placed in the
refrigerator.
Defrosting
When the frozen food storage compartment is covered with frost
the refrigerator must be shut down temporarily till the frost is
melted.
Empty the refrigerator leaving the drip tray under the finned
evaporator and the cabinet and freezer doors open. If desired,
defrosting may be speeded up by filling the ice tray with hot water
and placing it in the freezer.
When all frost is melted, empty the drip tray and dry the interior of
the refrigerator with a clean cloth.
Replace the drip tray and ice tray, replace all food stuffs and set
the thermostat to MAX for a few hours.Then reset the thermostat
knob to its normal position.
Before the refrigerator is restarted the compartment should be
dried, the ice trays washed and refilled with fresh water:
When the frost on the finned evaporator section has melted
water will be collected in the drip tray. The drip tray should be
emptied at regular intervals.
