PART 4: OPERATION
Switching on your unit
•
The temperature selector knob is located on the right hand sidewall of the refrigerator interior
Setting “Min”: Less Cool Temperature
Setting “Med”: Normal Operation (adequate for most situations)
Setting
“Max”:
Coolest
Temperature
•
During high ambient temperatures e.g. on hot summer days. It may be necessary to set the thermostat
to the Coolest setting (position “Max”).This may cause the compressor running continuously in order to
maintain a low temperature in the cabinet.
•
For the fi rst time you install your refrigerator, set the thermostat knob at “Med”.
Give your refrigerator time to cool down completely before adding food. It is the best to wait 24 hours
before adding food. The thermostat knob controls the temperature.
Noise inside the unit!
You may notice that your unit makes some unusual noises. Most of these are perfectly normal, but you should
be aware of them!
These noises are caused by the circulation of the refrigerant liquid in the cooling system. It has become more
pronounced since the introduction of CFC free gases. This is not a fault and will not aff ect the performance of
your unit. This is the compressor motor working, as it pumps the refrigerant around the system.
Tips for keeping food in the unit
• Cooked
meats/fi shes should always be stored on a shelf above raw meats/fi shes to avoid bacterial transfer.
Keep raw meats/fi shes in a container which is large enough to collect juices and cover it properly. Place
the container on the lowest shelf.
•
Leave space around your food, to allow air to circulate inside the unit. Ensure all parts of the unit are kept
cool.
•
To prevent transfer of favors and drying out, pack or cover the food separately. Fruit and vegetables do not
need to be wrapped.
•
Always let pre-cooked food cool down before you put in the unit. This will help to maintain the internal
temperature of the unit.
•
To prevent cold air escaping from the unit, try to limit the number of times you open the door. We
recommend that you only open the door when you need to put food in or take food out.
