[. . . ] Care must be taken to ensure that the appliance does not stand on the electrical supply cable. There are working parts in this product which heat up. Always ensure that there is adequate ventilation as a failure to do this will result in component failure and possible content loss. Parts which heat up should not be exposed. [. . . ] The refrigerator must be level both directions 2. There should be 20mm clearance to the wall 3. Ventilation must be provided as shown in alternatives A, B, C or D (fig 2-3) 4. The ventilation duct must at least measure 105mm x the width of the refrigerator 5. Only the entire cooling unit must project into the duct as shown 6. Air passing through the duct must not be preheated by any source of heat 7. Ventilation grills, if used, must have openings of at least 200cm2 each During installation, please ensure the mains plug is accessible at all times. Figure 3. 5. Using the appliance To start the refrigerator connect the plug to the socket outlet and switch on the socket. The cooling fins should show signs of cooling after about 3 hours. The refrigerator needs about 6 hours at normal ambient temperature to reach 6 °C in the storage compartment. 5. 1. Temperature regulation The usual setting required is in middle of the setting range on the thermostat knob (Fig. 4), but this can vary with conditions of load and installation. If it is found necessary to alter the setting, the knob can be turned to a higher number to produce a colder temperature, or a lower number to produce a warmer temperature. The effect of any adjustment can be checked by means of a thermometer after leaving the refrigerator operating for a further period to settle down again. Figure 4. 5 GB 6. Ice cubes Fill the ice tray to 4/5 with drinking water, and place the ice tray on the ice-tray shelf. Wipe off any excess water to prevent the ice tray from freezing to the surface. To speed up the making of ice cubes, turn the thermostat to position MAX for a short while. Remember to turn the dial to its normal setting when the ice cubes are frozen. To remove the cubes from the ice tray, hold it under running water. The ice cubes can now be taken out easily. Press the metal reflector to one side and draw the lamp covering backwards. Replace the bulb and push the covering back into place. [. . . ] After having removed the 40-mm feet, you can then re-attach the 12-mm feet, located inside the 40-mm feet, to the front and rear fixing points. The 40-mm feet and the 4 remaining screws should be retained for future use. 13.
