Operating Your Refrigerator
Temperature Control:
Your appliance’s evaporator system is out of sight behind the interior
rear wall.
The interior temperature is controlled with a thermostat knob located
inside the unit, towards the upper right-hand corner. Turn the knob
clockwise from the STOP ( 0 ) position toward the higher numbers for
colder temperatures. Higher settings on the knob (higher numbers) mean
lower temperatures (colder) in the refrigerator.
On the coldest settings, temperatures in some spots inside the cabinet may drop below 32°F.
Use higher thermostat settings only when required or recommended. When the ambient
temperature is normal, we recommend a medium setting.
Changes in the ambient temperature affect the temperature inside the refrigerator so choose
an appropriate setting of the thermostat knob, depending on ambient conditions.
In the STOP ( 0 ) position, the appliance does not operate (the cooling system is switched off),
yet the power supply is not interrupted (the light still works).
The temperature inside the refrigerator also depends on how often you open the door.
In all small refrigerators without interior fans, temperatures are coldest near the bottom, and
occasionally near the rear. Place contents accordingly. It is best not to operate these units
mostly empty. If temperatures are erratic, try putting some water bottles inside to create a
load for the compressor.
NOTES:
1. Shelves are adjustable. Certain models include glass shelves (see
Technical Information
,
page 5). These shelves stop short an inch before the back wall, which is essential for air flow
and the proper operation of the automatic defrost system. Do not block these gaps.
2. a) Interior lighting on the FF6 series models is controlled by a switch that is activated
by the opening and closing of the refrigerator door.
b) Lights on the other models are controlled by a manually-operated rocker switch. To
maintain the proper interior temperature, keep the light on only as long as
necessary.
3. If the refrigerator is unplugged, has lost power, or is turned off, you must wait 3 to 5 minutes
before restarting it. If you attempt to restart before this time delay, the unit will not start.
Defrosting Your Appliance:
This appliance operates with an automatic defrost system, so the refrigerator defrosts itself.
While the compressor is operating, ice will build along the rear cold wall (the evaporator plate is
behind the wall). During the compressor’s off-cycle, ice will melt, drip down, collect in the trough
at the bottom and drain through a small hole into a tray above the compressor; where the
compressor’s heat will evaporate the water. If you notice excessive ice build-up on the rear wall,
try setting the thermostat to a slightly warmer setting; be sure that the door gasket is sealing
well and that there is no obstruction of the drain hole at the bottom rear of the interior cabinet.
