ARFG-42FB CONTROL SETTINGS AND TEMPERATURE ADJUSTMENT:
OPERATION:
This unit features a digital electronic control with automatic defrost cycles to prevent the coil from freezing. It operates by
lowering the cabinet temperature to your desired setting whilst regularly providing defrost cycles to the unit during
operation.
CONTROLS AND LOCATION:
Switch the unit ON using the main ON/OFF power switch, located inside the cabinet, below the light. Immediately after the
unit is switched on, the cabinet light and inside evaporator fans will start operating. Check the temperature setting which has
been set at the factory to 35°F.
ALFRESCO™ recommends starting the unit at 35°F for optimal operation, only adjusting up or down to your preference once
the units’ cabinet temperature has stabilized after 24 hours of operation.
To adjust the temperature set point, press and release the “SET” button, whereupon the display will start flashing. Using the
up or down arrow, adjust to the desired temperature, then press and release the “SET” button to complete the adjustment.
ADJUSTMENT ITEMS TO REMEMBER:
• FOR NORMAL OPERATION SET THE UNIT TO 35°F.
• DO NOT CHANGE THE TEMPERATURE SETTING WITHOUT ALLOWING TIME FOR THE PREVIOUS SETTING
TO TAKE EFFECT; APPROXIMATELY 24 HOURS.
• THE COMPRESSOR WILL START AND STOP OFTEN; THIS IS NORMAL OPERATION.
• KEEP YOUR REFRIGERATOR LEVELED.
USE TIPS & ENERGY SAVING IDEAS:
CLEANING:
Exercise caution when sweeping, vacuuming or mopping near the front of the unit.
For normal cleaning, mix 2 tablespoons of baking soda with 1 quart of warm water or use a mild soap. Do not use harsh
cleaners or abrasives. Do not splash or spray water onto or under the refrigerator.
TIPS FOR ENERGY SAVING:
Your ALFRESCO™ refrigerator is designed with the latest technology, to be highly energy efficient. However, following a
few simple tips can help save even more energy.
• Limit how often the door is opened.
• Close the door as soon as possible after opening.
• Don't put hot foods into the unit.
• During prolonged periods of non-use, set the temperature to a higher setting or switch the unit off.
• Keep door and drawer gaskets clean to ensure a proper seal.
IMPORTANT NOTE:
This refrigerator is programmed with
a time delay to protect the
compressor. When the unit is
powered on, the compressor will not
run for approximately ten minutes,
this is normal. The refrigeration cycle
will then start but it may be a further
five to ten minutes before cold air will
be perceived inside the unit.
