The refrigerator can be run on either 230 V or LP gas. Changing between these modes of operation is carried
out by turning the rotary switch F.
The refrigerator temperature is controlled by a thermostat (D). Please note that the thermostat has no "off"
position.
The refrigerator is fitted with a safety device which automatically shuts off the supply of gas if the flame goes
out. The safety device can be opened manually by depressing knob (C).
In the flame indicator (B), you can see a blue light when the flame is alight.
The Neon lamp (E) inside will light when the electric power is on.
GAS OPERATION
After initial installation, servicing, or changing gas cylinders etc., the gas pipes may contain some air which
should be allowed to escape by depressing the button (C). This will ensure that the flame lights immediately.
1. Make sure that all valves between the gas container and the refrigerator are open.
2. Set the rotary switch (F) to gas.
3. Depress the safety device control (C) and hold it down while depressing the igniter switch (A) .
4. Check the flame indicator (B) to see whether the flame is alight.
5. Keep the safety device control (C) depressed for a further 10-15 seconds.
6. Release the safety device control (C ) and again check to see that the flame is alight.
If the burner has not lit after 4-5 attempts, turn off the gas tap, wait 5 minutes and then try to re-light. If the
burner still fails to light, please contact the authorised service provider in your area.
Note: If the battery ignition fails to spark, you might need to replace the battery.
AC OPERATION
1. Set the rotary switch (F) to AC.
2. Have the AC power plug to be connected to main power source.
3. Check if the lamp (E) is alight.
To terminate gas operation, turn off the gas valve from the gas container and turn the switch F to OFF
position.
To terminate AC operation, turn the switch F to OFF position.
Regulating the temperature
The position number refers to fig. 1.
It will take several hours for the refrigerator to reach normal operating temperature.
The temperature of the main compartment of the refrigerator is controlled by a thermostat. The thermostat
knob (D) should be set at 1-4. If a lower (colder) temperature is desired, set the thermostat to a higher figure.
Please note that too much lower temperature might make vegetable or egg frozen..
