BEFORE USING FOR THE FIRST TIME
• The appliance may be placed with its rear panel directly against
the wall.
For good circulation, the vent at the back of the unit must not be
blocked. Your Husky Personal Drinks Refrigerator should be placed on
flat and firm surface for quieter operation.
• Do not expose the appliance to direct sunlight or a heat source such as
ovens, radiators, heaters, etc.
• Do not under any circumstances place heated beverages or frozen food
in your Husky Personal drinks refrigerator.
• Do not open the door more often than necessary to lessen the escape
of cold air.
• For better air circulation, do not overfill your Personal drinks refrigerator.
• Adjust the temperature regulator according to the amount of product
and the ambient temperature.
BASIC OPERATION
Your Husky Personal Drinks Refrigerator must stand on an even surface.
If the appliance is to be placed on carpet, support it with a wooden board
underneath. Be aware that placing the appliance on carpet may mean that heat
from the compressor may cause the carpet to fade.
To operate
1. Clean the inner compartment.
2. Plug in your Husky Personal Drinks Refrigerator.
3. The first time you turn the unit on, set the
temperature control to the max. position “5”.
4. After 20 minutes, adjust the temperature
control setting to “3”. This setting should
be correct for home or office use.
5. To turn your Husky Personal Drinks Refrigerator off, turn the
temperature control to “0.”
NOTE:
• Turning the temperature control to “0” stops the cooling cycle but does
not shut off power to the unit. If the unit is unplugged, power lost, or
turned off you must wait 3 to 5 minutes before restarting. If you
attempt to restart the unit before this delay, the unit will not start.
Tips for refrigeration
Adjust the internal temperature according to the amount of product and the
ambient temperature.
Winter (5-10°C/41-50°F) — Setting 1-2
Spring and Autumn (10-15°C/50-59°F) — Setting 2-4
Summer (15-25°C/59-77°F) — Setting 4-5
The inner temperature varies in different parts of the chiller. The back of the
chiller is coldest.
