Turning on the appliance and setting the thermostat
You switch on your appliance by connecting it to your mains supply
and setting the thermostat. The thermostat is located on the upper
right hand side of the inside of the cabinet, next to the interior light.
o
The thermostat automatically regulates the temperature inside
the fridge freezer, depending on what number you have turned
the thermostat control knob to.
o
Position <0> means that the appliance will not cool. However
the light will still function.
o
Position <1> will give you a higher temperature inside the fridge
freezer.
o
Position <7> will give you a lower temperature inside the fridge
freezer.
o
Ideally the thermostat should be set to a position between <3>
and <4>.
o
The fridge section can maintain a temperature of between 4 – 6
degrees centigrade.
o
The freezer section can cool down to -18°C 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 fridge freezer and how often the
door is opened, will all affect the temperature being
maintained by the appliance.
o
On the maximum setting (position <7>), your fridge freezer will
work harder to maintain a lower temperature. There is no need
to run your appliance on setting 7 for prolonged periods. Unless
you are freezing fresh food, you should have the thermostat
knob set to between <3> and <4>.
o
IMPORTANT: Do not run the thermostat above position 5,
otherwise the defrost drainage hole will freeze.
