Operating your fridge
Before using your fridge
Before placing food in the fridge it needs to be cleaned by wiping
•
the interior using warm water and a soft cloth. Wipe the fridge
completely dry before replacing the shelves and crisper.
Allow 12 hours before turning on the fridge to allow coolant gases
•
time to settle after the fridge is in place. Failure to do this may result
in damage to the fridge and such damage is not covered by the
warranty.
Using your fridge
Once the fridge has been cleaned and dried, plug into a power
•
socket.
Adjust the temperature control, which is located inside the fridge,
•
to between 3 and 4, this is the correct setting to use in a room with
an average ambient temperature of 20°C
Allow the fridge at least 4 hours before storing any food inside to
•
allow for sufficient
cooling temperature to be reached.
Adjusting the temperature
The ideal internal temperature of your fridge should be between 0°C
•
and 5°C. This
is regulated by the temperature control located internally at the top
of the appliance.
There are 7 settings on the temperature control, with position 7 being
•
the coldest
setting, position 1 being the warmest setting, and position 0 being off.
The temperature control should be set between 3 and 4 initially
•
and adjusted to achieve the correct setting for your environment.
Avoid setting the thermostat too high as this may reduce the
temperature to a point where some foods may freeze. If this
happens turn down the thermostat slightly.
