Using the Appliance
This appliance is designed for domestic use
only, specifically for the storage of edible
foodstuffs.
The appliance is designed to operate in ambient
temperatures (surrounding air temperature) between
10 °C and 32 °C.
If these temperatures are exceeded i.e. colder or
warmer, the appliance will not operate correctly.
Should the ambient temperatures be exceeded for
long periods, the temperature in the freezer section
will rise above -18 °C and food spoilage may occur.
Before Use
Remove all packaging and securing tapes. Wash
inside the appliance with lukewarm water and
bicarbonate of soda (5 ml to 0,5 litre of water). Do not
use soap or detergent as the smell may linger. Dry
thoroughly.
Do not use detergents, abrasive powders,
highly perfumed cleaning products, wax
polishes or products containing alcohol.
Putting it into use
Place the accessories into the appliance then plug to
the mains socket.
The thermostat knob is on the light box in the
refrigerator. You can switch the appliance on and set
the temperature with it by turning the knob clockwise.
The next paragraph will give instructions for setting.

To Start the Appliance
1. Allow the appliance to stand for 2 hrs after
installation.
2. Plug in the appliance and switch on at the mains
supply.
3. The thermostat interrupts the cooling automatically
for more or less time depending on the setting then
restarts it assuring the required temperature.
The closer it is set to maximum position the colder
it will be. When the thermostat knob is set to a
medium position (between minimum and
maximum), in the freezer a temperature colder than
-18°C, in the refrigerator 5°C can be
reached. Setting it to a medium position is
adequate for everyday use.
The temperature in the refrigerator is affected by
not only the position of the thermostat but the
ambient temperature, frequency of door openings
and the quantity of food put into it etc.
In the maximum position - in case of
increased demand e.g. during heatwaves -
the compressor may operate continually. This
does not cause damages to the appliance.
