INITIAL START-Up

INITIAL START-Up
This series of refrigerators has been fitted with a 'wet wall'
evaporator which is positioned behind the rear liner . The
rear liner will, at times be wet or appear frosted . This is
normal and demonstrates that the refrigerator is functioning
correctly . This product is designed to operate on a power
supply of 220/240 volts 50Hz . Connect to a separate
power point with a correctly earthed three pin socket . Do
not use double adaptors .
CONTROLLING THE TEMpERATURE IN YOUR REFRIGERATOR
Refrigerators work by transferring heat from the food inside
to the outside air . This operation makes the back and sides
of the refrigerator (particularly at start-up) feel warm – which
is normal . Make sure you fully close the refrigerator door
after loading or removing food . If the door is left partially
open, a heavy frost will coat the inside of the ice box .
Ensure shelves are pushed back completely to prevent them
holding the door open . If the unit is unplugged, power lost
or turned off, you must wait 3 to 5 minutes before restarting
the unit . If you attempt to restart the unit before this time
delay, the refrigerator will not start .
When the thermostat is turned to it's lowest setting and past
the point of resistance, the appliance will not operate .
WARNING
Power is still supplied to the appliance
To make the appliance operate you must turn the knob
clockwise .
For all models, 'Less Cold' corresponds to the warmest
temperature while 'Colder' the coldest .
The temperatures in the 2 compartments of the refrigerator
cannot be adjusted separately (this refers to WIM1000,
WIM1200) .
When the ambient room temperature is 16°C, a setting
of half way between 'Less Cold' and 'Mid' would be
appropriate .
When the ambient room temperature is 25°C, a setting of
half way between 'Mid' and 'Colder' could be selected .
