placed on either of the removable shelves.

6. To store raw meat, wrap in polythene bags and place on the lowest shelf. Do
not allow to come into contact with cooked food to avoid contamination. For
safety, only store raw meat for two to three days.
7. Shelves incorporate rear stops and tilting for storing bottles. Lift shelf to clear
grooves when adjusting.

shelf. To remove a tilted shelf, first release the back off the grooves and then
pull it.
9. Keep the food packed, wrapped or covered. Allow hot food and beverages

TEMPERATURE CONTROL AND ADJUSTMENT
Operating temperatures are controlled by the thermostat and may be set
between 1 and 5, 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 setting the thermostat half-way between the 1 and 5 setting
and monitoring to obtain the desired temperature i. e. towards 5 you will
obtain a colder 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.
In ambient temperatures above 25°C (77°F), especially in summer, turn the
thermostat knob towards 5. In ambient temperatures below 25°C (77°F)
turn the thermostat knob to a half way position.
Frequent door opening causes internal temperatures to rise, so it is advisable
to close as soon as possible after use.
In case of a temporary ice build up in the fridge compartment reduce the
thermostat setting to 1, monitoring at the same time that the fridge temperature
is maximum +5 degrees C (41 degrees F). Once the ice build up disappears
and the appliance starts auto defrosting again as normal, then you may
increase the thermostat setting, if required.
