Allow the cabinet to run for a period of 24 hours
whenever the temperature setting is changed. This
will allow the temperature to stabilise inside the
cabinet.
Switching off
Turn the control anti-clockwise past the click
position to "
•
".
Remove the power supply plug from the wall socket.
Temperature inside the fridge
A suitable temperature inside the fridge is approx.
+5°C. If the thermostat control is set to a too cold
temperature, food with a high water content may
start to freeze if it has been placed in the coldest
places in the fridge. The picture shows the coldest
and warmest places inside the fridge.
(+ warm, - cold)
Meat, fish and milk should be put in the coldest part
of the cabinet.
The temperature will be affected by:
· How often the door is opened
· How much food is stored
· Position of the appliance (See chapter
Installation)
Measuring the temperature
If the temperature is measured using a standard,
single thermometer, this should be put in a glass of
water centrally placed inside the cabinet. This will
reflect the temperature inside the food products. Do
not place the thermometer hanging or lying directly
on the shelf.
Hints:
· Distribute foodstuffs to allow cold air to
circulate freely between the products.
· Do not place food products directly against the
cooling plate on the rear wall since they may
freeze in this case.
· Also never put warm products into the cabinet.
Wait until they have cooled down.
· Cover all foods properly to avoid odours and
flavours from tainting other food.
Cabinet interior
The shelves and door compartments are removable
and can easily be re-arranged.
Certain shelves must be lifted up by the rear edge to
enable them to be removed.
The lower door compartment and the glass shelf
above the vegetable drawer must not be moved.
They are required for proper air circulation inside the
cabinet.
Shelves with a raised edge should be placed with the
raised edge facing the rear wall of the cabinet, and
thus prevent food products from touching the
cooling plate.
