6.1 Refrigerator
(05LRAETSA)
6.1.1 Temperature Control
•
Operate the unit for several hours to allow the cabinet to reach normal
operating temperatures before storing product.
•
Your appliance’s evaporator system is out of sight behind the interior
rear wall.
•
The interior temperature is controlled with a thermostat knob located
inside the unit, towards the upper right-hand corner. Turn the knob
clockwise from the STOP (0) position toward the higher numbers for
colder temperatures. Higher settings on the knob (higher numbers)
mean lower temperatures (colder) in the refrigerator & freezer.
•
Use higher thermostat settings only when required or as recommended
by qualified technician.
•
Changes in the ambient temperature affect the temperature inside the
refrigerator so choose an appropriate setting of the thermostat knob,
depending on ambient conditions.
•
In the STOP (0) position, the appliance does not operate (the cooling
system is switched off ), yet the power supply is not interrupted (the
light still works).
•
The temperature inside the refrigerator & freezer also depends on how
often you open the door.
Note
•
Shelves are adjustable in refrigerators. These shelves stop short an inch before
the back wall, which is essential for air flow. Do not block these gaps.
•
Lights on the units are controlled by a manually-operated rocker switch. To
maintain the proper interior temperature, keep the light on only as long as
necessary.
•
If the refrigerator is unplugged, has lost power, or is turned off, you must
wait 3 to 5 minutes before restarting it. If you attempt to restart before this
time delay, the unit will not start.
