Using your refrigerator
Temperature Control And
Adjustment
Operating
temperatures
are
controlled by the thermostat control
(see diagram) located on the ceiling of
fridge compartment. Settings may be
made from min, 1 ... 6, max, max being
the coldest position.
Recommended temperature setting
knob position is 5. Please make sure
that it is set to 5 for ideal storage
conditions.
When the appliance is switched
on for the first time, the thermostat
should be adjusted so that after 24
hours, the average fridge temperature
is no higher than +5°C (+41°F). We
recommend you set the control half
way between the min and max setting
and monitor to obtain the desired
temperature i. e. towards max you will
obtain a colder fridge temperature
and vice versa. Some sections of the
fridge may be cooler or warmer ( such
as the salad crisper and the top part of
the cabinet ) which is quite normal.
The normal storage temperature
of the freezer should be -18°C (0°F).
Lower temperatures may be obtained
by adjusting the setting towards max
position.
We recommend that you check
the temperature with an accurate
thermometer to ensure that the
storage compartments are kept to the
desired temperature.
Remember you must take your
reading very quickly since the
thermometer temperature will rise
very rapidly after you remove it from
the appliance.
Please remember each time the door
is opened cold air escapes and the
internal temperature rises. Therefore
never leave the door open and ensure
it is closed immediately after food is
put in or removed.
