OPERATION
This appliance is designed to store fresh food in the fridge section and to store frozen food or
freeze fresh food in the freezer section.
When switching on for the first time, leave the appliance running on setting No. 6 for
approximately 24 hours before storing food. The thermostat should then be set according to
the instructions below.
THERMOSTAT SETTING
•
The recommended normal setting is position 3.
•
The thermostat automatically regulates the temperature inside both the fridge and
freezer compartments.
•
When the thermostat control knob is set to the ‘0ff’ position, this shows that the
thermostat is switched off and no cooling is achieved.
•
Rotating the control knob in the fridge compartment from setting ’1’ to ‘6’ will achieve
varying degrees of cooling in both the fridge and freezer compartments, with ‘6’ being
the coldest.
•
As a guide, the colder the setting, the longer food can be stored.
•
PLEASE NOTE that ambient temperature (room temperature), the temperature and
quantity of recently stored food and how often the door is opened, will all affect the
temperature inside the appliance.
FOOD STORAGE
Refrigerator compartment
•
The shelf positions in the fridge compartment can be changed to suit your requirements.
To remove a shelf, lift the rear edge before pulling it forwards and then downwards.
•
The temperature varies from one section of the fridge to another. The coldest part is
immediately above the salad drawers and near to the rear.
•
Do not place hot / warm food or liquids in the fridge compartment. Warm food and
liquids should be allowed to cool at room temperature and placed in the fridge with
adequate air circulation.
