Using the fridge
GB
To start the fridge and set the
correct temperature
Turn the thermostat control to the desired position.
MIN The l owest position of t he thermostat control
results in the highest temperature inside the cabinet.
MAX The highest position of the thermostat control
results in the l owest temperature inside the cabinet.
H : S witched off.
Allow the 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.
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 affected by:
· How often the door is opened
· How much food is stored
· P osition 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 t he click
position to "•".
Remove the power supply plug from the wall socket.
