SPECIFICATIONS

• This appliance is a cellar compartment for the storage of non-
perishable beverages. It is not suitable for the storage of fresh food
or perishable drinks.
• It is intended strictly for domestic indoor use.
• The refrigerating circuit is leak-proof.
HOW TO MINIMISE THE ENERGY CONSUMPTION OF YOUR
HUSKY DRINKS COOLER
• Energy consumption will be lower if the unit stands in a well
ventilated space and in particular if vent at the back of the unit is
clear of obstruction.
• Do not place the appliance in direct sunlight or near a heat source
such as ovens, radiators, heaters, etc as this will increase energy
consumption.
• Keep the door closed as much as possible.
• Setting the thermostat cooler (towards 5 on the dial) means higher
energy consumption, so set only as cool as you really require.
• Do not overfill the cabinet - overfilling means that the cool air cannot
circulate freely inside the cabinet which may slow the process of
cooling and make the cabinet less efficient.
• Defrost the appliance if frost can be seen building up inside - frost
will increase energy consumption and make the cooling process
slower.
• Turn the appliance off completely if it is not required for a period of
days or longer to avoid wasting energy (see also section 'When not
in use').

BASIC OPERATION

Your Husky Drinks Cooler must stand on an even, flat surface for quieter
operation.
If the appliance is to be placed on carpet, support it with a wooden board
underneath. Be aware that placing the appliance on carpet may mean that
heat from the compressor may cause the carpet to fade.
Thermostat settings
The settings 1 (MIN) – 5 (MAX) regulate the interior
temperature.
Setting 1 (or MIN) = lowest setting (warmest
internal temperature)
Setting 5 (or MAX) = highest setting (coldest
internal temperature)

To operate
NOTE: If the unit is unplugged or power lost, you must wait 3 to 5 minutes
before restarting. If you attempt to restart the unit before this delay, the
unit will not start.
WARNING
If the thermostat is set to too cold a setting, beverages may become frozen.
In extreme circumstances, glass bottles may even break. Always exercise
caution when setting the temperature.
When not in use
If the unit is not being used for long periods:
DEFROSTING

the door is opened.

musty or develop mildew.

This is an entirely normal part of operation. If the frost layer is more
than 3mm/ 1 ⁄ " thick, the cooler must be defrosted and cleaned to
8
