Operation; Daily Use - IKEA TILLREDA Instruction Manual

ENGLISH

Operation

Switching on
Connect the mains plug to a power socket and adjust
the temperature. The appliance switches on and
starts operating.
Adjusting the temperature
The temperature is automatically regulated.
To adjust the temperature:
• Turn the temperature regulator toward a lower
setting to decrease the coldness.
• Turn the temperature regulator toward a higher
setting to increase the coldness.
A medium setting is generally the most suitable.

Daily use

Hints for fresh food refrigeration
•
Cover or wrap the food, particularly if it has a
strong flavour.
•
Position the food so that air can circulate freely
around it.
•
For best performance, leave enough space in
the refrigerator compartment for air to circulate
around the packages. Also leave enough room at
the front so the door can close tightly.
•
Do not store warm food or evaporating liquids in
the refrigerator.
•
Cooked foods and cold dishes: cover and place on
any shelf.
•
Fruit and vegetables: clean thoroughly and place in
the vegetable drawer. Bananas, potatoes, onions
and garlic must not be kept in the refrigerator if
not packed.
•
Butter and cheese: place in special airtight
containers or wrap in aluminium foil or polythene
bags to exclude as much air as possible.
•
Bottles: close with caps and place on the door
balconies.

Adjust the temperature setting by keeping in mind
that the temperature inside the appliance depends
on:
• room temperature
• how often the door is opened
• the quantity of food stored
• the location of the appliance
Important! If the ambient temperature is high or
the appliance is fully loaded, and the appliance is set
to the lowest temperatures, it may run continuously
causing frost to form on the rear wall. In this
case a higher temperature must be set to allow
automatic defrosting and therefore reduced energy
consumption.
Tips:
•
The lower the temperature, the longer you can
safely store your food and the more electricity the
appliance consumes.
•
The higher the temperature, the quicker your
stored food decays and the less electricity the
appliance consumes.
Switching off
To switch off the appliance, turn the temperature
regulator knob to point to the "OFF" position and then
disconnect the mains plug from the power socket.
