TEMPERATURE ADJUSTMENT Operating temperatures are controlled by the thermostat Knob and may be set at any position between 1 and 5 (the coldest position). The average temperature inside the fridge should be around +5°C (+41°F). Therefore, adjust the thermostat to obtain the desired temperature. Some sections of the fridge may be cooler or warmer (such as salad crisper and top part of the cabinet) which is quite normal. We recommend that you check the temperature periodically with a thermometer to ensure that the cabinet is kept to this temperature. Frequent door openings cause internal temperatures to rise, so it is advisable to close the door as soon as possible after use. BEFORE OPERATING Final Check Before you start using the appliance check that: 1. The feet have been adjusted for perfect levelling. 2. The interior is dry, and air can circulate freely at the rear. 3. The interior is clean as recommended under "Cleaning and care." 4. The plug has been inserted into the wall socket and the electricity is switched on. When the door is open the interior light will come on. And note that: 5. You will hear a noise as the compressor starts up. The liquid and gases sealed within the refrigeration system may also make some (noise), whether the compressor is running or not. This is quite normal. 6. Slight undulation of the top of the cabinet is quite normal due to the manufacturing process used; it is not a defect. 7. We recommend setting the thermostat knob midway and monitor the temperature to ensure the appliance maintains desired storage temperatures (See section Temperature Control and Adjustment). 8. Do not load the appliance immediately it is switched on. Wait until the correct storage temperature has been reached. We recommend checking the temperature with an accurate thermometer (see; Temperature Control and Adjustment). . STORING FROZEN FOOD Your freezer is suitable for the long-term storage of commercially frozen foods and also can be used to freeze and store fresh food. If there is a power failure, do not open the door. Frozen food should not be affected if the failure lasts for less than 13 hrs. If the failure is longer, then the food should be checked and either eaten immediately or cooked and then re-frozen. FREEZING FRESH FOOD Please observe the following instructions to obtain the best results. Do not freeze too large a quantity at any one time. The quality of the food is best preserved when it is frozen right through to the core as quickly as possible. Do not exceed the freezing capacity of your appliance in 24 h. Placing warm food into the freezer compartment causes the refrigeration machine to operate continuously until the food is frozen solid. This can temporarily lead to excessive cooling of the refrigeration compartment. When freezing fresh food, keep the thermostat knob at medium position. Small quantities of food up to 1/2 kg. (1 lb) can be frozen without adjusting the temperature control knob. Take special care not to mix already frozen food and fresh food. 8

TEMPERATURE ADJUSTMENT
Operating temperatures are controlled by the thermostat
Knob and may be set at any position between 1 and 5
(the coldest position). The average temperature inside the fridge
should be around +5°C (+41°F). Therefore, adjust the thermostat
to obtain the desired temperature. Some sections of the fridge
may be cooler or warmer (such as salad crisper and top part of
the cabinet) which is quite normal. We recommend that you
check the temperature periodically with a thermometer to ensure
that the cabinet is kept to this temperature. Frequent door
openings cause internal temperatures to rise, so it is advisable
to close the door as soon as possible after use.
BEFORE OPERATING
Final Check
Before you start using the appliance check that:
1. The feet have been adjusted for perfect levelling.
2. The interior is dry, and air can circulate freely at the rear.
3. The interior is clean as recommended under "Cleaning and care.”
4. The plug has been inserted into the wall socket and the electricity is switched on. When
the door is open the interior light will come on.
And note that:
5. You will hear a noise as the compressor starts up. The liquid and gases sealed within
the refrigeration system may also make some (noise), whether the compressor is running
or not. This is quite normal.
6. Slight undulation of the top of the cabinet is quite normal due to the manufacturing
process used; it is not a defect.
7. We recommend setting the thermostat knob midway and monitor the temperature to
ensure the appliance maintains desired storage temperatures (See section Temperature
Control and Adjustment).
8. Do not load the appliance immediately it is switched on. Wait until the correct storage
temperature has been reached. We recommend checking the temperature with an
accurate thermometer (see; Temperature Control and Adjustment).

STORING FROZEN FOOD
Your freezer is suitable for the long-term storage of commercially frozen foods and also
can be used to freeze and store fresh food.
If there is a power failure, do not open the door. Frozen food should not be affected if the
failure lasts for less than
13
hrs. If the failure is longer, then the food should be checked
and either eaten immediately or cooked and then re-frozen.
FREEZING FRESH FOOD
Please observe the following instructions to obtain the best results.
Do not freeze too large a quantity at any one time. The quality of the food is best preserved
when it is frozen right through to the core as quickly as possible.
Do not exceed the freezing capacity of your appliance in 24 h.
Placing warm food into the freezer compartment causes the refrigeration machine to
operate continuously until the food is frozen solid. This can temporarily lead to excessive
cooling of the refrigeration compartment.
When freezing fresh food, keep the thermostat knob at medium position. Small quantities
of food up to 1/2 kg. (1 lb) can be frozen without adjusting the temperature control knob.
Take special care not to mix already frozen food and fresh food.
