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 at the top of the
fridge section, on the inside of the cabinet.
o
The thermostat automatically regulates the temperature inside
the fridge freezer, depending on what number you have turned
the thermostat control dial
(K)
to. A green light
(V)
will switch
on to indicate that the fridge freezer is cooling.
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 <5> will give you a lower temperature inside the fridge
freezer.
o
Ideally the thermostat should be set to position <3>.
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 <5>), your fridge
freezer will work harder to maintain a lower
temperature. There is no need to run your appliance on
this setting for prolonged periods. Unless you are freezing fresh
food, you should have the thermostat control dial set to <3>.
