Operating Your Appliance - Igloo FR834 Guide D'utilisation

OPERATING YOUR APPLIANCE

Temperature Control
Your appliance has only one control for regulating the temperature in the fresh food and the freezer
compartment. The temperature control is located on the upper right hand side of the fresh food
section.
The first time you turn the unit on set the temperature control to "6" or the high position.
The range of the temperature control is from position "1" the warmest to "6" the coldest. After 24 to 48
hours, adjust the temperature control to the setting that best suits your needs. The setting of "4"
should be correct for home or office appliance use.
To turn the appliance off, turn the temperature control to "OFF"
NOTE: Turning the temperature control to "OFF" position stops the cooling cycle but does not shut
off the power to the appliance.
If the unit is unplugged, power lost, or turned off; you must wait 3 to 5 minutes before restarting the
unit. If you attempt to restart before this time delay, the appliance will not start.
Defrosting Your Appliance
When? For the most efficient operation and minimum energy consumption, defrost the appliance
compartment when the frost on the appliance walls is excessive or 1/4 inch thick.
How? Remove the food from the appliance and place it in a cooler to protect the food.
During the defrost cycle, the ice melts into the water collection tray. The water must be removed from
the water collection tray as needed, to avoid overflow.
To remove the water, either removes the water collection tray and/or place a collection container
under the tray.
Dry the water collection tray and place back under the appliance compartment.
For those models with a self contained freezer compartment and no collection tray, water should be
removed regularly during defrost, with a sponge.
IMPORTANT NOTE: Never use sharp or pointed instruments to defrost / remove ice from the
freezer compartment. The freezer compartment contains refrigerated gas lines and if
accidentally punctured or pierced, will render the refrigerator inoperable and "VOID" the
manufacturers' warranty.
CAUTION
Do not use boiling water because it may damage the plastic parts. In addition, never use a
sharp or metallic instrument to remove frost as it may damage the cooling coils and will void
the warranty. We recommend using a plastic scraper.
