HOW TO OPERAT E

Starting your new Refrigerator

1. Clean the refrigerator thoroughly. Wipe the outside with a soft dry cloth, the
inside with a damp cloth.

2. Keep the door open and insert the power supply cord into the socket.

3. Turn the thermostat dial to “7”. Close the door and let the refrigerator
operate for 15-20 minutes.
The freezer should then show some traces of frost.

Temperature control

You can control the inside temperature by
turning the thermostat dial. Higher numbers
mean greater cooling power, smaller
numbers mean less cooling power. To make
ice cubes in the freezer compartment, set
the dial to “7”. The dial does not have to be
set exactly on the numbers, but can be any
place in between.

N O T E : Wait 3 to 5 minutes before restarting if you unplug the machine.

Unit may fail to operate properly if restarted too quickly.

How to defrost

Defrost the refrigerator when the frost accumulated on the evaporator is about
5mm (1/5inch) thick.
Set the thermostat dial to “OFF”. Remove frozen or perishable foods.
Keep drip tray in place. Defrosting usually takes a few hours. To defrost quickly
remove all foods from the refrigerator and leave the door open.
Never use a knife or other metal instrument to remove ice/frost from the
e v a p o r a t o r. After defrosting, empty water from drip tray, return the thermostat
dial to the desired position to start refrigerating again.
