Temperature control
The unit is activated by
connecting it to the mains. It
is only switched off completely
when the plug is removed from
the wall socket.
The temperature in the refrigerator cabinet can be adjusted by
setting the temperature control. Turning the control clockwise
will decrease the temperature, while turning it anti-clockwise
will increase it.
∙ After switching on, the temperature control should be set to
its highest setting.
∙ After approx. 30 minutes, the temperature should be
changed to a medium setting, which is usually suffi cient for
home or offi ce use. Following a power interruption, or if the
unit has been switched off on purpose, it may take 3 to 5
minutes before it switches on again.
Note: In position '0', the cooling function is switched off,
though the appliance is still connected to the mains.

∙ Remove the plug from the wall socket.
∙ Use a suitable screw-driver to remove the screw holding the
light cover and take the cover off.
∙ Take out the defective bulb and fi t a new one (max. 15 W.,
