STARTUP / OPERATION

Prior to first use

ATTENTION
After transport, the device should be left standing for 4 hours in order for the oil
to be collected in the compressor.
Nonobservance could cause damage to the compressor and hence result in failure of the device. This
would void your warranty claim.
• Clean the interior of the device including all accessory parts located inside.
Connect the device to the mains supply
IMPORTANT
The device must be earthed properly. For this purpose the plug of the mains cable has
been fitted with the intended lead.
IMPORTANT
Contact an electrician if the plug does not fit in the wall socket.
IMPORTANT
In case you disconnect the device or in case of power failure: Wait for 5 minutes before
restarting the device.

Turning on

Turn on the device by connecting the plug to a wall socket and turning the temperature control, which
is located at the right side of the interior. Please also refer to chapter "Settings".
Settings
Setting 0 – OFF indicates the device is turned off.
Turn the temperature control clockwise, starting from this setting; the device will turn on automatically.
The Settings 1 MIN – 7 MAX regulate the inside temperature. When opening the door, the interior
lamp will turn on.
Setting 0 (or OFF)
Setting 1 (or MIN)
Setting 7 (or MAX)
Turning the temperature control clockwise will lower the inside temperature. Please keep in mind that
the temperature changes with the ambient temperature (of the location), with the frequency of opening
the door and the amount of food in the device.
During initial operation, turn the temperature control to the highest setting first, until the device has
reached the desired operating temperature. Afterwards It is recommended to turn the control back to a
medium setting, correcting the temperature at a later point would then be easier.
Storing food - Refrigerator

onto other food items.
You may pack the food with:
• Polyethylene plastic bags or foil
• Plastic containers with a lid

The following safety precautions are recommended
• The device is suitable for storing fresh food and drinks.
