5 Using your refrigerator
Temperature Control And Adjustment
Operating temperatures are controlled
by the thermostat control (see diagram)
located on the ceiling of fridge
compartment. Settings may be made
from min, 1 ... 6, max, max being the
coldest position.
When the appliance is switched on
for the first time, the thermostat should
be adjusted so that after 24 hours, the
average fridge temperature is no higher
than +5°C (+41°F). We recommend
you set the control half way between
the min and max setting and monitor
to obtain the desired temperature i. e.
towards max you will obtain a colder
fridge temperature and vice versa.
Some sections of the fridge may be
cooler or warmer ( such as the salad
crisper and the top part of the cabinet )
which is quite normal.
The normal storage temperature of the
freezer should be -18°C (0°F). Lower
temperatures may be obtained by
adjusting the setting towards max
position.
We recommend that you check
the temperature with an accurate
thermometer to ensure that the storage
compartments are kept to the desired
temperature.
Remember you must take your reading
very quickly since the thermometer
temperature will rise very rapidly after
you remove it from the appliance.
Please remember each time the door
is opened cold air escapes and the
internal temperature rises. Therefore
never leave the door open and ensure
it is closed immediately after food is put
in or removed.
