OPERATION
Before using
Remove all 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.
Setting the temperature
The temperature inside the appliance is regulated by
a thermostat with 6 temperature positions and an
ÒOFFÓ (
●
) position.
Position 1 = minimum coldness
Position 6 = maximum coldness
Turn the thermostat dial to the required position.
The intermediate position is usually the most
suitable (3-4).
The thermostat control regulates the temperature
both within the fridge and the freezer compartment.
The thermostat setting can vary as the temperature
inside the appliance depends on the following
factors:
Ð room temperature
Ð how often the door is opened
Ð how much food is stored
Ð position of the appliance
To Start the Appliance
Allow the appliance to stand for 2 hours after
installation.
Plug in the appliance and switch on at the mains
supply. Turn the thermostat control (A) to a midway
setting (3-4) and adjust the slider control, situated on
the back wall of the fridge section, to a midway
position between ÒcoldÓ and ÒcoldestÓ. The pilot light
(B) will illuminate. Leave the appliance for
approximately 4 hours for the correct temperature to
be reached before placing food inside.
To switch off the appliance turn the thermostat
control to position Ò

Use of an air circulation slider
control - COOL FLOW SYSTEM
Your appliance has an air circulation slider control
situated at the rear of the fridge compartment, which
controls the amount of cold air circulated through the
fridge compartment.
When the ambient temperature is between 10¡C and
16¡C, the slider control should be in the ÒcoldÓ
position.
When the ambient temperature is above 16¡C the
slider control should be midway between ÒcoldÓ and
ÒcoldestÓ.
When the ambient temperature is very high (i.e. hot
summer days) position the slider control to ÒcoldestÓ.
