screws, but remember to tighten them afterwards.
– Replace the top cover (4) and use the screws (1 and 3) to secure it (two screws at the front and
two at the rear).
If the unit has been tilted to more than 30°, wait for about 4 hours before re-connecting it to the
mains.
Temperature control
The unit is re-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.
The medium settings are usually most suitable for home use.
We recommend using a thermometer to check the actual temperature inside the cabinet and make
adjustments as necessary.
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.
In position '0' , the cooling function is switched off, though the appliance is still connected to the
mains.

Interior lighting
Changing the light bulb:
– Remove the plug from the wall socket.
– Use a suitable tool to release the locking tab (5) and remove the lamp cover (4).
– Take out the defective bulb and fit a new one (max. 15 W, socket type E14).
– Replace the lamp cover.
– Connect the unit to the mains power. It may take 3 to 5 minutes before it switches on again.
Freezer compartment door
To ensure that frozen food will not de-frost prematurely, the door to the freezer compartment should
be kept closed at all times. This will also prevent an undue build-up of ice and frost. Ensure,
therefore, that the door is only opened briefly to place food in the freezer compartment or to remove
it.
Freezing and storing food
– The temperatures inside the refrigerator cabinet and freezer compartment depend mainly on the
ambient temperature, the temperature control setting and the amount of food stored.
