User manual AEG-ELECTROLUX RA80

[. . . ] It is dangerous to alter the specifications or modify this product in any way. 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. [. . . ] Installation instructions The refrigerator is equipped with an electrically heated absorption cooling unit which is virtually silent in operation. The fridge is designed for free-standing installation, but can be built-in if the following conditions are complied with to ensure satisfactory operation and maximum cooling efficiency. IMPORTANT Please follow the installation details below carefully Guarantee is valid for products installed as described only. 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 Figure 3. 5 GB 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 the region of 2 to 3 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 the thermometer after leaving the refrigerator operating for a further period to settle down again. This frost-formation is kept back by the FUZZY LOGIC system built into the appliance by switching off the unit for two hours in every 24 hours. The frost will melt and the defrost water will run through the drain tube from the drip channel into an evaporating vessel located at the bottom rear of the refrigerator. (Fig 5) The defrost water will evaporate automatically into the circulating air and the vessel will not need emptying manually. If we want to switch off the unit, turn the thermostat knob to "0", disconnect the refrigerator from the electricity supply and leave the cabinet door open. After defrosting the cabinet interior should be wiped out with a clean, damp cloth. Figure 5. 9. Changing the lightbulb (If available) Figure 4. 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. [. . . ] If after checking all the above points, the refrigerator is still not working satisfactorily, contact your nearest service engineer. State the problem, model, productand serial-number. (Details of the model, product- and serialnumber are to be found on the data label in the top left of the inside compartment. ) This refrigerator is equipped with overheating protection. An authorised service technician can check whether this has been triggered or not. [. . . ]
