Temperature control and adjustment
Operating temperatures are controlled by the
thermostat knob.
If the thermostat knob is in position "0" the
appliance is off. In this case neither the lamp
for inside lighting will light.
If the appliance works correctly the following
temperatures are obtained:
- Low temperature compartment (marked with
4 stars
): -18
temperature.
- Fridge compartment: 0 + +5
The inside temperatures can vary according
to the use conditions of the appliance:
location, ambient temperature, door opening
frequency, charge with food. The position of
the thermostat knob will be modified
according to these conditions. Generally, for
an ambient temperature of 25
thermostat knob will be adjusted on an
average position.
Avoid a thermostat knob position which could
result in a continuous operation of the
appliance. This leads to the decrease of the
temperatures below 0
drinks and fresh food freezing, and of
excessive ice build-up on the evaporator and
on the evaporator door as well as of
decrerasing the energy efficiency of the
appliance (increase of the energy
consumption).
Before operating
Final Check
Before you start using the appliance check
that:
1. The feet have been adjusted for perfect
levelling.
2. The interior is dry and air can circulate
freely at the rear.
3. The interior is clean as recommended
under "Cleaning and care."
4. The plug has been inserted into the wall
socket and the electricity is switched on.
When the door is open the interior light will
come on.

5. You will hear a noise as the compressor
starts up. The liquid and gases sealed within
the refrigeration system may also make some
(noise), whether the compressor is running or
not. This is quite normal.
6. Slight undulation of the top of the cabinet
is quite normal due to the manufacturing
process used; it is not a defect.
7. We recommend setting the thermostat
knob midway and monitor the temperature to
ensure the appliance maintains desired
storage temperatures (See section
Temperature Control and Adjustment).
8. Do not load the appliance immediately it
is switched on. Wait until the correct storage
temperature has been reached. We
recommend checking the temperature with an
accurate thermometer (see; Temperature
Control and Adjustment).
Freezing fresh food
Please observe the following instructions to
obtain the best results.
Do not freeze too large a quantity at any one
time. The quality of the food is best preserved
when it is frozen right through to the core as
quickly as possible.
Do not exceed the freezing capacity of your
appliance in 24 h.
Placing warm food into the low temperature
compartme compartment causes the
refrigeration machine to operate continously
until the food is frozen solid. This can
temporarily lead to excessive cooling of the
refrigeration compartment.
When freezing fresh food, keep the
thermostat knob at medium position. Small
quantities of food up to 1/2 kg. (1 lb) can be
frozen without adjusting the temperature
control knob.
Take special care not to mix already frozen
food and fresh food.
