Safety Regulations
The appliance complies with UL250 and is designed
to cool, freeze and store food and to make ice (if
equipped). It is designed as a household appliance.
If used commercially, the relevant regulations on
commercial use must be observed.
The appliance is set to operate within specific
ambient temperature limits according to its climate
rating. These temperature limits should not be
exceeded. The correct climate rating for your
appliance is indicated on the model plate.
This is explained as follows:
Climate
Rating Set for Ambient Temperatures of
SN 50°F to 90°F (10°C to 32°C)
N 61°F to 90°F (16°C to 32°C)
ST 65°F to 100°F (18°C to 38°C)
T 65°F to 109°F (18°C to 43°C)
- The refrigerant circuit has been tested for leaks.
- The appliance complies with current safety
regulations and EC directives 73/23/EEC and
89/336/EEC.
We recommend cleaning the appliance before
turning it ON for the first time. See Cleaning.Turn
ON the appliance several hours before loading it
with frozen food for the first time. Do not load with
frozen food until the temperature shows
approximately 0°F (-18°C).
Do not allow children to play with the
appliance. Children must not climb, sit or
stand on the shelves, drawers or door.
Turning the Appliance ON and
OFF
- Figure 1
Clean the appliance before turning it on
for the first time. See Cleaning.
Allow the appliance to operate approximately two
hours before placing food in it. DO NOT place
frozen food in the freezer until the temperature
shows at least 0°F. The refrigerator and freezer
compartments can be operated separately.
1. Turning ON: Press the Refrigerator ON/OFF
button (Fig. 1, 9) and the Freezer ON/OFF
button (Fig. 1, 3) so the Temperature Displays
(Fig. 1, 1) and (Fig. 1, 7) light up or
“flash.”
!
WARNING
• The interior light will turn ON when the
refrigerator door is open.
• The alarm will sound when the freezer is turned
ON for the first time and when the appliance is
“warm.”
2. Press the Alarm button (Fig. 1, 5) to turn it OFF.
See Audible Warning Signal.
3. Turning OFF: Press the Refrigerator ON/OFF
button and the Freezer ON/OFF button again so
the temperature displays go out.
Changing the Temperature
Display
- Figure 1
The temperature reading can be displayed in either
degrees Fahrenheit or degrees Celsius.
When the appliance is first turned on or after a
power failure, the refrigerator Temperature Display
and Setting Display (Fig. 1, 7) will show the set
temperature display, either degrees Fahrenheit or
degrees Celsius, for five seconds. Then, the actual
temperature is displayed.
To change the temperature display:
1. Press both the Alarm button (Fig. 1, 5) and the
DOWN Refrigerator Temperature button
(Fig. 1, 8) for seven seconds. The set
temperature display will blink six times.
2. While the temperature display is blinking, press
both buttons again and the temperature display
will change.
3. After making the change, the new temperature
display will blink six times. Then both
temperature displays will show the actual
temperature value.
Setting the Temperature
- Figure 1
The appliance is pre-set for normal operation. We
recommend temperatures of 41°F (5°C) in the
refrigerator and 0°F (-18°C) in the freezer.
To reduce the temperature:
Press the DOWN button on the left to
reduce the refrigerator temperature
(Fig. 1, 8) and the DOWN button on the
right to reduce the freezer temperature
(Fig. 1, 2).
