Moving Your Appliance; Freezing And Storing Food - THOMSON TCH 300 Operating Instructions Manual

GB
In the OFF position the appliance does not operate (the cooling system is switched off), but power supply is
not interrupted.
The running time and temperature are affected by where the appliance is located, how often the door is
opened and the temperature of the room the appliance is located in.
When you use the appliance for the first time or after defrosting, adjust the control knob to the coldest
setting for at least 2 hours before introducing food to be stored, and then readjust to the middle setting.
MOVING YOUR APPLIANCE
If the appliance is turned off for any reason, wait 10 minutes before turning it back on. This will allow the
refrigeration system pressures to equalise before restarting.
 Turn off the appliance and unplug it from the mains socket. Remove all food. Also remove all mobile parts
(shelves, accessories, etc.) or fix them into the appliance to avoid any shock.
 Relocate and install. If the appliance has been left on its side for any length of time, leave it standing
upright for at least 10 minutes before turning on.
Your appliance uses isobutane (R600a) as a refrigerant. Although R600a is an environmentally friendly and
natural gas, it is explosive. Therefore you should be careful during shipment and installation to prevent your
appliance's cooler elements from being damaged. In the event of a leak caused by damage to the cooler
elements, move your appliance from open flame or heat sources and ventilate the room where the
appliance is located for a few minutes.
