Switching on the appliance and setting the thermostat
You switch on your appliance by connecting it to your mains supply
and pressing the power button for 3 seconds. The thermostat dials are
also located on the control panel, which can be found at the top of the
fridge-freezer.
IMPORTANT: The fridge and freezer sections are controlled
independently and have separate temperature control dials.
o The thermostat automatically regulates the temperature inside
the fridge/freezer, depending on which setting you have turned
the thermostat dial to.
o If the dial is positioned nearer to the Low setting, then you will
get a lower temperature inside the fridge/freezer sections.
o If the dial is positioned nearer to the High setting,
then you will get a higher temperature inside the
fridge and freezer sections.
o Ideally the dial should be set to the midway position of ‘Mid’.
o Your refrigerator can maintain a temperature of between 4 – 6
degrees centigrade.
o The freezer section can cool down to -18 degrees centigrade and
lower.
o IMPORTANT: The ambient temperature of the room,
the temperature of food and the amount of food that
has been placed in the appliance and how often the door
is opened, will all affect the temperature being
maintained by the appliance.
o When positioned on or near the maximum setting (S.Cool / S.Frz or
Low) your fridge freezer will work harder to maintain a lower
temperature and will increase the energy usage. There is no need
to run your appliance at this setting for prolonged periods. You
should generally have the dial set to ‘Mid’, as outlined above.
