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
Р how often the door is opened
Р how much food is stored
Р 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

Ó

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.

gasket may not fit perfectly to the cabinet. In that

case, wait for the natural fitting of the gasket or

accelerate this process by heating up the part

involved with a normal hairdryer on a low setting.
