IMPORTANT
The wires in the mains lead of this appliance are coloured
in accordance with the following code:
GREEN-and-YELLOW:
EARTH
BLUE :
Neutral
BROWN :
LIVE
As the colours of the wires in the mains lead may not
correspond with the coloured markings identifying the
terminals in your plug, proceed as follows.
Connect the GREEN-and-YELLOW coloured wire to the
plug terminal marked letter E or earth symbol
or
coloured green or green-and-and-yellow.
Connect the BROWN coloured wire to the plug terminal
marked letter L or coloured red.
Connect the BLUE coloured wire to the plug terminal
marked letter N or coloured black.
SETTING THE CONTROL
To start the fridge, plug into the socket outlet, switch on,
and turn the thermostat dial (inside the cabinet) to setting
number 3 or 4. There will be signs of cooling in about
an hour. Note that the fridge has an absorption type of
cooling unit, which is virtually silent in operation. You will
not therefore hear anything start up when the fridge is
switched on.
The refrigerator temperature will be affected by location,
room temperature, and frequency of door opening and
adjustment of the thermostat dial may be needed to allow
for this.
Temperature control
The temperature in the fridge is from 0° to 7° C, when
you set the thermostat dial to 3 or 4, in normal ambient
temperatures.
If colder temperatures are needed in the fridge turn the
thermostat dial clockwise to a higher number: if less
cooling is required, turn the dial anti-clockwise to a lower
number.
USING THE FRIDGE
The fridge compartment provides suitable storage for
most kinds of food, milk, drinks, etc. and door shelves are
provided in the RA 140 for bottles, jars, and small
packets.
All models except RA 80 and RH 200 are equipped with
half-depth cabinet shelves which can be rearranged as
you wish. Two can be used together to form a full-depth
shelf or they can be used separately, leaving space along
the front for bottles or other tall items.
Ideally, all foods should be in covered containers or
plastic bags, or wrapped in foil or plastic film. Liquids
should also be covered. This is to prevent flavours
passing from one item to another and also to reduce frost
build-up on the cooling surtaces due to moisture coming
from stored items.
