dry frost on the cooling fins (approx 38° Freinhight or 3° Celcius) . Adjust the
thermostat knob closer to “Max” (clockwise) when the ambient temperature rises.
How To Use The Refrigerator
FOOD STORAGE COMPARTMENT
The food storage compartment is completely closed and unventilated, this is necessary
to maintain the required low temperature for food storage. The coldest areas in the
refrigerator are under the cooling fins and at the bottom of the refrigerator. The
warmer areas are on the upper door shelves. This should be considered when placing
different types of food in the refrigerator.
FROZEN FOOD STORAGE COMPARTMENT
Quick freeze soft fruits and ice cream should be placed in the coldest part of the
compartment which is at the bottom of the aluminum liner. Frozen vegetables, may be
stored in any part of the compartment.
This compartment is not designed for deep or quick freezing of food. Meat or fish,
whether raw or prepared, can be stored in the frozen food storage compartment
provided they are pre-cooled in the refrigerator. To prevent food from drying out,
keep it in covered dishes, containers, plastic bags or wrapped in aluminum foil.
Defrosting
Frost will gradually accumulate inside the refrigerator and freezer surfaces. It must not
be allowed to grow too thick as it acts as an insulator and adversely affects the
refrigerator performance. Check the formation of frost every week and when it
exceeds 1/16” thick, defrost the refrigerator.
Shut off and empty the refrigerator, leaving the fridge and the freezer doors open.
Defrosting time can be reduced by filling the ice tray with hot water and placing it in
the freezer compartment.
