Operation; Setting The Thermostat Knob - DARTY Proline DD 221 WH Manual De Instrucciones

Allow at least 10cm of space at the top and 10 cm of space on both sides of the appliance and between
the back of the appliance and the wall for adequate air circulation. The appliance is not designed for
recessed installation ("building in").
Install on a good firm level surface, and any unevenness of the floor should be corrected prior to
installation, slight unevenness can be overcome by adjusting the front feet.
NOTE: If the appliance is positioned on a carpet, soft floor covering you should readjust the front feet
once the appliance has had time to settle.
OPERATION
 This appliance is designed to operate in ambient temperature between 16℃and 38℃. If these
temperatures are exceeded, i.e. colder or warmer, the appliance will not operate correctly. If the
ambient temperatures are exceeded for long periods, the temperature in the freezer section will rise
above ‐18℃and food spoilage may occur.
 Remove all packaging materials from the appliance. Wash the inside of the cabinet with lukewarm
water and bicarbonate of soda (5ml to 0.5 litre of water). Dry the appliance thoroughly.
 When you use the freezer for the first time or after defrosting, set the thermostat control to the
maximum position for at least 2 hours before introducing food to be stored, and then readjust to the
normal position.
 If there is a power failure, do not open the door. Frozen food should not be affected if the failure lasts
for less than 12 hours. If the failure is longer, then the food should be checked and either eaten
immediately or cooked and then re‐frozen.
Setting the thermostat knob
The refrigerator is controlled with a thermostat knob located inside the fridge, towards the upper
right‐hand corner. Turn the knob from the STOP (0) position towards the higher numbers for colder
temperatures. The knob can be adjusted from setting 1 to 7.
Higher settings on the knob (higher numbers) mean lower temperatures (colder) in all compartments of
the appliance.
Changes of the ambient temperature affect temperature in the interior of the appliance so choose a
correct setting of the temperature control knob, depending on your ambient conditions.
In the STOP (0) position the appliance does not operate (the cooling system is switched off), but power
supply is not interrupted.
Set the thermostat knob to a middle position to achieve ‐18℃ in the freezer compartment.
Please Note: If the appliance is switched off you must wait at least 5 minutes before restarting the
appliance or re‐inserting the plug into the wall outlet. This is to allow the protection device in the
compressor to reset.
