Before switching on your appliance make
sure that the mains cable is not trapped
underneath or behind the appliance.
Thermostat setting
The thermostat setting will depend on the
location of the appliance, room temperature
and how often the door is opened. When
starting the appliance for the first time turn
the thermostat to the 5 setting for the first
24hrs then adjust accordingly.
* The thermostat automatically regulates the
inside temperature of the refrigerator and
freezer compartment.
By turning the knob from 1. to 5.,
colder temperatures can be obtained.
* The “OFF” position shows that the
thermostat is closed and no cooling is
available.
* For short term storage of food in the
freezer compartment, you can set the knob
to the 3 setting.
* For long term storage of food in the
freezer compartment, you can set the knob
between the 3 and 5 position.
* Note: The ambient temperature,
temperature of the freshly stored food
and how often the door is opened,
affects the temperature in the
refrigerator and freezer compartments.
If required, change the temperature
setting.
* Ideally, when you first switch on the
appliance, you should try to run it without
any food in for 24 hours and not open the
door. If you do need to use it straight away
try not to put to much food inside.
Running in the compressor
Your appliance is operated by a compressor,
which maintains the appliance internal tem-
perature. For the first few months the com-
pressor has to work a little harder and may
result in more noise than usual.
* If the appliance is switched off or unplugged,
you must allow 5 minutes before restarting in
order not to damage the compressor.
Refrigerator RSB20
* The freezer of the refrigerator can cool up
to -12˚C.

Thermostat setting
The freezer thermostat automatically
regulates the inside temperature of the
compartments. By turning the knob from
position 1 to 3, colder temperatures can be
obtained. The position “O” (off position)
shows that the thermostat is closed and no
cooling will be available.
Freezer thermostat setting
The temperature in your freezer should be
maintained at -18˚C or colder. The ambient
temperature of the freshly stored food
and how often the door is opened,
affects the temperature in the freezer. If
required, change the temperature control
setting at the rear of the freezer (setting 3 is
the coldest.).
