OPERATION
CONNECTING TO THE MAINS
The appliance must only be connected to the mains by means of an earthed
socket which has been installed in accordance with the regulations. Before
connecting up, check that the voltage on the data label (in the top left of the
inside compartment) Is compatible with the mains supply.
Do not cut or remove the grounding prong from this plug. Extension cords should
not be used!
SWITCHING ON
To switch on the refrigerator, plug it into the socket and turn the thermostat (in
the inside compartment) to position 2 or 3 in normal ambient temperatures.
The appliance will be cool in about one hour. As the refrigerator is equipped with
an absorption cooling unit which is completely silent in operation, you will not
hear any noise when the refrigerator is switched on.
The temperature inside the refrigerator is affected by location, room
temperature, kind of foodstuffing and too frequent openning of the door.
Adjustment of the thermostat dial may therefore be necessary.
TEMPERATURE CONTROL
The cooling capacity can be adjusted by means of the thermostat.
0 = cooling is switched off, from 1 - 5 the temperature decreases. When the
thermostat is at a medium setting (2 or 3) and the ambient temperature is
normal, the temperature inside the refrigerator is between 0°C and 7°C.
USING THE REFRIGERATOR
The refrigerator provides sufficient storage space for most kinds of food, milk,
drinks, etc.
Two can be used together to form a fulldepth shelf or they can be used sepa-
rately, leaving space at the front for bottles and other larger items.
Ideally all foods should be in covered containers or plastic bags or wrapped in
foil or plastic film. Liquids should also be covered. This is to prevent flavours
passing from one item to another and also to reduce frost build-up on the cooling
surfaces due to moisture coming from stored items.
