[. . . ] 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 you set the thermostat half way between the 1 and 5 setting and monitor to obtain the desired temperature i. towards 5 you will obtain a colder fridge 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. The normal storage temperature of the freezer should be -18°C (0°F). Lower temperatures may be obtained by adjusting thermostat knob towards 5 position. We recommend that you check the temperature with an accurate thermometer to ensure that the storage compartments are kept to the desired temperature. Remember you must take your reading very quickly since the thermometer temperature will rise very rapidly after you remove it from the freezer. Please remember each time the door is opened cold air escapes and the internal temperature rises. Therefore never leave the door open and ensure it is closed immediately after food is put in or removed. 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. When you set the thermostat knob to 0 [Zero] position, the appliance will be switched off. Air circulation fan will come on and go off from time to time while the fridge door is shut after use to circulate air in the fridge. This forced air circulation will improve the temperature maintenance in the fridge compartment. Do not block, obstruct or tamper with the fan or fan guard. Keep the fan guard free from food items and other objects. 12 STARTING Final Check Before you start using the fridge/freezer check that: 1. The feet have been adjusted for perfect levelling. The interior is dry and air can circulate freely at the rear of the cabinet. Clean the interior as recommended under "CLEANING AND CARE. " 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.
