Section 3. Operating the Appliance
3.1. Switching on the Appliance
-
Allow the appliance to stand for a minimum of 4 hours after installation.
-
Plug in the appliance and switch on at the mains supply.
-
Set the thermostat control to the required setting as detailed in the
Temperature Control section (3.2.).
-
Leave the appliance for approximately 4 hours for the correct temperature
to be reached.
3.2. Temperature Control
The temperature control knob is located just above the door on the front of
the appliance (See ‘Description of the Appliance’ on page 3). Set the control
as follows:
-
Setting “Min”: Warmest Temperature
-
Setting “Normal”: Normal Operation (adequate for most situations)
-
Setting “Max”: Coldest Temperature
Important!
During high ambient temperatures e.g. on hot summer days, it may be necessary to
set the control to the coldest setting (Max). This may cause the compressor to run
continuously in order to maintain a low temperature in the cabinet.
N.B. If you site this appliance in a garage, out-building or a cold room where
the ambient temperature may fall below 6 to 8 degrees C, condensation may
form on the outer cabinet and ‘pool’ under the appliance. This is quite normal
and does not indicate that there is a fault with the appliance.
To prevent condensation building up on the outer cabinet ensure that
the ambient temperature is above 8 degrees C.
