4. OPERATION
4.1 Switching on your unit
 OFF setting: Unit off
 MIN setting: Lower cooling temperature
 MED setting: Normal temperature (suitable for most situations)
The thermostat knob is located on the right hand side wall of the
refrigerator interior. On high ambient temperature days, for example in
summer, it may be necessary to set the thermostat to the coldest setting
(MAX position). This may cause the compressor to run continuously to
maintain a low temperature in the refrigerator.
The first time you start the refrigerator, set the thermostat to MED. The
thermostat knob controls the temperature: when it is in the OFF position,
the refrigerator will not be running.
Allow the refrigerator to cool down completely before putting food in it. It is
best to wait 24 hours.
4.2 Noise inside the unit
You may notice that your unit makes some unusual noises. Most of these are
perfectly normal, but you should be aware of them!
These noises are caused by the circulation of the refrigerant liquid in the
cooling system. It has become more pronounced since the introduction of
CFC free gases. This is not a fault and will not affect the performance of your
unit. This is the compressor motor working, as it pumps the refrigerant
around the system.
4.3 Food preservation tips
 Cooked meat and fish should always be stored on a shelf away from raw
meat and fish to avoid possible transfer of bacteria. Store raw meat and
fish in a container large enough to catch any juices that may be
released and cover it properly. Place the container on the bottom shelf.
 Leave space around the food and allow air to circulate inside the unit.
Check that all parts of the unit are well ventilated.
 To prevent flavour transfer or food from drying out, store or cover food
separately.
 Always allow cooked food to cool to room temperature before placing in
the refrigerator. This will help to maintain the internal temperature of
the unit.
 To prevent cold air from escaping from inside the unit, try to limit the
number of times the door is opened. We recommend that the door is
only opened when food needs to be taken in or out.
