opposite rear corner, this means that the floor is uneven;
you will need to put some packing under one of the

such as thin board, vinyl floor tiles or laminate. Place
the packing so that it will sit under one of the rear
rollers when the refrigerator is rolled into position.

Refrigerator Operation

The refrigerator transfers heat from food placed inside the
appliance to the outside air.
This process makes the rear, the sides and the area
adjacent to the doors, particularly at initial start up, feel
warm to hot, this is normal.
There is a cooling coil located behind the rear wall of the
cabinet. This coil cools and removes moisture from the air.
A fan then circulates cold, dry air throughout the cabinet.
This air circulation means that foods are refrigerated far
more quickly than in refrigerators where the air remains
relatively static.
Avoid placing food against air outlets as this will affect
air circulation.
A light frosting will occasionally occur on the cold interior
of the freezer when the door is opened frequently. This
is normal and will disappear after a few days in most
climates.
Make sure you fully close the freezer door after you load or
remove food. If the door is left partly open, a heavy frost will
coat the inside of the freezer. If a frost develops, remove it.
Take care to properly close the door and the frost will not
reoccur.
Your new energy efficient appliance uses a high-speed
compressor and other energy efficient components that may
produce different noises to your old appliance.
These sounds are normal and include:
o
compressor running noise.
o
air movement noise from the small fan motor.
o
occasional gurgling, similar to water boiling.
o
a popping noise, heard during automatic defrosting.
o
a clicking noise, just prior to the compressor starting up.
These noises are normal and not cause for alarm.
Temperature Control
The factory default settings;
Refrigerator = 5°c
Freezer = -18°c
If you want to change the temperature, follow the
instructions in the section about the user interface for your
model. Ensure that you make only small adjustments and
wait 24 hours to see if it's correct to your liking.
Note: When you set a temperature, you set an average
temperature for the whole refrigerator cabinet.
Checking the softness of ice cream is a good indication
that your freezer is the right temperature, while checking
the temperature of water kept in the refrigerator is a
good way of checking the temperature of the food
compartment.
Temperatures inside each compartment may vary,
depending on how much food you store and where you
place it.
High or low room temperature may also affect the actual
temperature inside the refrigerator.
