OPERATION AND FUNCTIONS
Temperature control and adjustment
Operating temperatures are controlled by
the thermostat knob and may be set at
any position between 1 and 5 (the coldest
position).
The average temperature inside the fridge
should be 5°C (+41°F).
Therefore adjust the thermostat to obtain
the desired temperature. Some sections
of the fridge may be cooler or warmer
(such as salad crisper and top part of the
cabinet)
which is quite normal. We recommend that
you check the temperature periodically
with a thermometer to ensure that the ca-
binet is kept to this temperature. Frequent
door openings cause internal temperatures
to rise, so it is advisable to close the door
as soon as possible after use.
Before operating
Final Check
Before you start using the appliance check
that:
1. The feet have been adjusted for perfect
levelling.
2. The interior is dry and air can circulate
freely at the rear.
3. The interior is clean as recommended
under "Cleaning and care.”
4. The plug has been inserted into the wall
socket and the electricity is switched on.
When the door is open the interior light will
come on. And note that:
5. You will hear a noise as the compressor
starts up. The liquid and gases sealed within
the refrigeration system may also make
some (noise), whether the compressor is
running or not. This is quite normal.
6. Slight undulation of the top of the cabinet
is quite normal due to the manufacturing
process used; it is not a defect.
7. We recommend setting the thermostat
knob midway and monitor the temperature to
ensure the appliance maintains desired
storage temperatures (See section
Temperature Control and Adjustment).
8. Do not load the appliance immediately it is
switched on. Wait until the correct storage
temperature has been reached. We
recommend checking the temperature with
an accurate thermometer (see; Temperature
Control and Adjustment).
