Control Panel
a. Thermostat control
Use to s witch on and set the desired temperature.
Before use
Position and clean the cabinet as explained in the section "Installation". Check that the drain hose at the rear of the cabinet discharges into the drip tray.
Before inserting the power plug into the outlet and switching on the cabinet for the first time, leave it standing upright for about 30 minutes, or for 4 hours if it was transported horizontally. Otherwise the compressor may sustain damage. This time will allow the oil sufficient time to return to the compressor.
Using fridge
To start the fridge and set the correct temperature
Turn the t hermostat control to the desired position. MIN The lowest position of the thermostat control results in the highest temperature inside the cabinet. MAX The highest position of the thermostat control results in the lowest temperature inside the cabinet. H : Switched off. Allow t he cabinet to run for a period of 24 hours whenever the temperature setting is changed. This will allow the temperature to stabilise inside the cabinet.
GB
GB
Temperature inside the fridge
A suitable temperature inside the fridge is approx. +5°C. If the thermostat control is set to a too cold temperature, food with a high water content may start to freeze if it has been placed in the coldest places in the fridge. The picture shows the coldest and warmest places inside the fridge. (+ warm, - cold) Meat, fish and milk should be put in the coldest part of the cabinet. The temperature will be affecteed by:
· How often the door is opened
· How much food is stored
· Position of the appliance (See chapter
Installation)

Measuring the temperature
If the temperature is measured using a standard, single thermometer, this should be put in a glass of water centrally placed inside the cabinet. This will reflect the temperature inside the food products. Do not place the thermometer hanging or lying directly on the shelf.
Hints:
· Distribute foodstuffs to allow cold air to circulate freely between the products.
· Do not place food products directly against the cooling plate on the rear wall since they may freeze in this case.
· Also never put warm products into the cabinet. Wait until they have cooled down.
· Cover all foods properly to avoid odours and flavours from tainting other food.
Switching off
Turn the control anti-clockwise past the click position to "H". Unplug the power supply plug from the wall socket or, alternatively, remove the fuse.
Cabinet interior
The vegetable drawer has a removable plate to separate different vegetables.
The shelves and door compartments are removable and can easily be re-arranged. The lower door compartment and the glass shelf above the vegetable drawer must not be moved. They are required for proper air circulation inside the cabinet.

placed. See the section "Installation". When installed correctly, the cabinet will consume less energy.

periods, or opening the door to frequently as warm air will enter the cabinet, and cause the compressor to switch on unnecessarily often.
· Ensure there are no obstructions prevending the
door from cloosing properly.
· Thaw frozen food in the fridge. This will ensure
safer defrosting of foods and reduce the work of the refridgeration unit

To Change the Light Bulb
The light is switched on automatically when the door is opened. Before replacing the light bulb, disconnect the power plug from the outlet. Fold the grille backward by unsnapping the front edge. Use a bulb of the same type, E14 socket, maximum ratingof25W. When replacing the light bulb, use a bulb of the same type as the original one. The glass must measure at least 18 mm in diameter at the socket. This will ensure close fitting of the bulb against the rubber seal in the socket.
When the appliance is not in use
Disconnect the appliance from electricity supply. Empty all foods and clean the appliance, leaving the doors ajar to prevent unpleasant smells. If the cabinet will be kept on, ask somebody to check it once in a while to prevent the food inside from spoiling in case of a power failure.

Sound level in cabinet is too high. The refrigerating system will always produce some sounds. A
pulsing sound is heard when coolant is pumped inside the cooling pipes. A ticking sound from the thermostat can be heard when the compressor switches on and off. The sound level varies depending on the operation of the cabinet. If you feel the sound level is incorrect:
Make sure the pipes at the back of the cabinet not touch each other. Carefully bend them if they do.
If the cushion spacers (between the cabinet wall and pipes) come loose, put them back in place again.
Carefully follow t he instructions in the chapter "Installing the cabinet".
The compressor operates continuously. Set a higher temperature.
Make sure that the door is completely closed and that the insulating strip is complete and clean. The temperature where the cabinet is placed is above normal room temperature.
