1. If applicable, turn off the gas operation.
2. Set the 230V rocker switch (B) to 'O' and
the 12V rocker switch (A) to I.
Regulating the temperature
Once the refrigerator has been started it will
take a few hours to become cold.
On 230V operation the refrigerator is
controlled by a thermostat and the
thermostat knob (C) should be set at 3. If a
colder temperature is required, set the
thermostat to a higher number and vice
versa.
On LP gas operation the refrigerator
temperature is regulated by the gas control
knob (D). If the ambient temperature is above
25°C and/or the door of the refrigerator is
frequently opened, the knob should be set in
the 'max' position. Below 25°C, the knob
should be set at 'mid' and below 10°C at
'min' to avoid temperatures below freezing in
the main compartment.
