Remove all securing tapes.

Wash the inside of the appliance with lukewarm
water with a little bicarbonate of soda added (5ml to
0,5 litre of water). Do not use soap or detergent as

Using the fridge

To start the fridge and thermostat
control
Turn the thermostat control knob to the desired
position.
MIN The lowest position of the thermostat control
results in the highest temperature inside the cabinet.
MAX The highest position of the thermostat control
results in the lowest temperature inside the cabinet.
H : Switched off.
Allow the appliance to run for a period of 24 hours
whenever the temperature setting is changed. This
will allow the temperature to stabilise inside the
appliance.

Temperature inside the fridge

A suitable temperature inside the fridge is approx.
+5°C. If the thermostat control is set too cold, food
with a high water content may start to freeze if it has
been placed in the coldest places in the fridge.
(+ warm, - cold)
Meat, fish and milk should be put in the coldest part
of the cabinet.
The temperature will be affected by:
· How often the door is opened
· How much food is stored
· Position of the appliance (See the Installation
section.)

Measuring the temperature

If the temperature is measured using a standard,
single thermometer, this should be put in a glass of
water centrally placed inside the appliance. This will
reflect the temperature inside the food products. Do
not place the thermometer hanging or lying directly
on the shelf.
