Getting started
Once you have installed your appliance in an appropriate location, follow the start up
procedure below:
•
Before you plug in the appliance, clean thoroughly the inside, and any accessories
with warm water and bicarbonate of soda (0.5ml to 0.5 litres) and dry with a soft
cloth.
•
Leave the appliance to stand for 2 - 3 hours to allow the refrigerant to settle
following installation and cleaning. If the appliance has been transported
horizontally, it must be left to stand vertically for 12 hours before installation.
•
Once dry, plug the appliance into the socket.
•
Turn the thermostat to the required setting - a medium setting is usually suitable.
•
Leave the appliance for at least 4 hours before storing any food inside to allow a
sufficient temperature to be reached.
