4.2 Electric operation:
a:check the gas cylinder valve (fig. 22) is turned off.
b:
connect to the electricity supply with the
correct
voltage;
for 120 V a.c. operation
turn
electric thermostat knob (fig. 2.10) in
the
clockwise direction
to pos.
7.
The 12 V circuit is not thermostatically regulated.
The knob (fig.
2.10) is useless for this energy source.
NOTE:
To stop the
electrical
120
V a.c. operation, turn electric thermostat knob (fig.
210) in the
anticlockwise direction
beyond
the point where a slight resistance is felt, to 0
setting.
For
safety reasons disconnect
it as well. To stop the
electrical
V d.c. operation, disconnect
voltage supply.
5. Regulations of temperature:
After a sufficient period of maximum
cooling
set the appropriate thermostat knob to the
middle
position. The cabinet will now automatically maintain a suitable temperature for
ordinary
food
storage.
Usually, no further
adjustment will be necessary, but in hot weather, or when more
cooling is required, the knob must be turned to a higher position. If less cooling
is
required,
the
knob should be turned to a lower position.
6.
Storing
food in the refrigerator:
To prevent food drying out and flavours being transferred from one food to another, foods
should always be stored in covered dishes, plastic bags or wrapped in foil or greaseproof
paper. NEVER PUT HOT FOOD INTO THE REFRIGERATORI Avoid using large dishes and
do not store food containers too closely together as this interferes with the circulation of cold
air within the cabinet.
7. Ice-making:
Fill the ice-tray with drinking water to within
1/5
of the top and cover with lid. Wipe off any
drops of water which may be on the tray and lid to prevent freezing together and place on the
shelf
directly
beneath the refrigerating unit. Ice will be made more quickly when the thermostat
knob (6
or 10) is set to MAX
(7)
for
a short time. When ice has formed, ensure that the knob is
returned to its normal setting.
TO remove the ice, allow the ice-tray to thaw slightly for a while or run it under tap water at
normal temperature before removing the lid from the tray. The ice cubes can now be removed
easily from the tray.
8. Defrosting:
Ice will form gradually on the cooling fins. It is a mistake to assume that an accumulation of ice
gives a colder cabinet For the most eff
icient
and economical operation, the refrigerator should
be defrosted regularfy
about every ten to fourteen days, depending on the particular
conditions of use. To defrost, turn off the gas cylinder valve or disconnect theelectricity supply
