6.0 TEMPERATURE CONTROL

The refrigerator is designed to maintain an internal storage temperature in the refrigerator compartment b2C  to + 5C.

To enable adjustment of the temperature in the appliance it is fitted with an adjustable thermostat located in the fridge compartment, which

can be adjusted from setting 1 (warmest) to 6 (coldest). For normal working temperature it is recommended to adjust the thermostat con-

trol to the midway position, after a few hours readjust the thermostat to the desired temperature. There is also an off position “OFF”. Which

turns OFF/ON the refrigerator freezer compartment. Please Note this dose not disconnect the appliance from the mains supply. To do this

you must remove the mains plug from the socket.

To obtain a lower internal temperature turn the thermostat temperature control clockwise to a higher number. To obtain a higher internal

temperature turn the thermostat control anticlockwise to a lower number. However, the internal temperature and temperature control set-

ting is dependent on a number of factors:

1. Varying ambient temperatures.

2. The number of times the appliance doors is opened and how long the doors remain open.

3. The amount and temperature of the food and drink introduced into the appliance.

4. The weather conditions and time of year e.g. summer/winter.

5. The positioning of the appliance and an adequate air circulation to the sides and back of the cabinet.

Never place hot or warm foods into the cabinet or leave the doors open for longer than necessary as this will raise the temperature and

cause excessive amounts of moisture thus increasing the amount of ice in the refrigerator / freezer compartment.

7.0 THE INTERNAL LIGHT

4.0 INSTALLATION 

Position the appliance and allow to stand for two to three hours before it is turned on for the first time to allow the system to settle. Do

not position next to any heat source e.g. cooker, boiler or in direct sunlight etc.

A clearance of 5 cm must be left between the sides of the appliance and any adjacent cabinets or walls to allow 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 over-

come by adjusting the front feet.

Please note: If the appliance is positioned on a carpet, soft floor covering you should re-adjust the front feet once the appliance has had

time to settle.

Please note: The doors on this appliance can not be reversed. 

Remove all packing materials and wash the interior of the appliance using lukewarm water containing a little bicarbonate of soda in the pro-

portion of 1 teaspoon to 1.2 litres (2 pints) of water. Do not use detergents or soaps as they may taint the food. After cleaning, dry all parts

thoroughly.

The internal light will automatically switch ON and OFF whenever the refrigerator door is opened or closed. To change the light bulb, please

see section 15.0 Changing the light bulb on page 5.

5.0 INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE

3.0 SAFETY INFORMATION

This information is provided in the interest of your safety. Please read the following carefully before carrying out the installation or use of the

appliance.

As old refrigeration equipment may contain CFC’s which will damage the ozone layer, when disposing of any refrigeration equipment please

contact your local waste disposal department for advice on the correct method of disposal

This appliance must only be used for its intended purpose i.e. the freezing and storage of domestic edible foodstuffs and should not be used

for any other purpose

If the mains cable requires replacement, this must only be undertaken by a suitably qualified person, as special purpose tools are required.
