" Insert the plug into the wall socket and switch on the electricity supply. · When the door is open the fridge interior light will come on. You will hear a noise as the compressor starts up. The liquid and gases sealed within the refrigeration system may also give rise to noise, whether the compressor is running or not which is quite normal.

" Set the thermostat knob half way between 1 and 5. Front edges of the cabinet may feel warm. These areas are designed to be warm to avoid condensation.

When the freezer fan is on, the noise will be louder when the freezer door is opened.

(1 lb) can be frozen without having to rotate the temperature control knob. You may place fresh food to be frozen in any part of the freezer.
