4.2. Mounting the sliding hinge

(on certain models)

According to the drawing attached to the sliding hinge

set. The corner parts is fixed to the door frame of the

refrigerator.

5. Using the appliance

To start the refrigerator connect the plug to the socket

outlet and switch on the socket. The cooling fins should

show signs of cooling after about 3 hours.

The refrigerator needs about 6 hours at normal

ambient temperature to reach 6 °C in the storage

compartment.

5.1. Temperature regulation

The usual setting required is in the region of 2 to 3 on

the thermostat knob (Fig. 5), but this can vary with

conditions of load and installation. If it is found

necessary to alter the setting,the knob can be turned

to a higher number to produce a colder temperature,

or a lower number to produce a warmer temperature.

The effect of any adjustment can be checked by

means of the thermometer after leaving the refrigerator

operating for a further period to settle down again.

6. ICE CUBES

Fill the ice tray to 4/5 with drinking water, and place

the ice tray on the ice-tray shelf. Wipe off any excess

water to prevent the ice tray from freezing to the

surface.

To speed up the making of ice cubes, turn the thermostat

to position 5 for a short while. Remember to turn the dial

to its normal setting when the ice cubes are frozen.

To remove the cubes from the ice tray, hold it under

running water. The ice cubes can now be taken out

easily.

7. Useful suggestion

Do not overfill the appliance. It is advisable to

leave some space between the products in the

cabinet to ensure efficient and even cooling. If the

shelves are packed too tightly there may be

unacceptable temperature variations.

8. Defrosting, cleaning and

maintenance

Frost will gradually form on the cooling surfaces and it

must not be allowed to become too thick since it acts

as an insulator and interferes with the cooling.

This frost-formation is kept back by the FUZZY LOGIC

system built into the appliance by switching off the unit

for two hours in every 24 hours. The frost will melt and

the defrost water will run through the drain tube from

the drip channel into an evaporating vessel located at

the bottom rear of the refrigerator. (Fig 6) The defrost

water will evaporate automatically into the circulating

air and the vessel will not need emptying manually.

If we want to switch off the unit, turn the thermostat

knob to "0", disconnect the refrigerator from the

electricity supply and leave the cabinet door open.

After defrosting the cabinet interior should be

wiped out with a clean, damp cloth.

9. Changing the lightbulb (If available)

If the lightbulb needs changing, pull out the plug

and proceed as follows:

Press the metal reflector to one side and draw the

lamp covering backwards. Replace the bulb and

push the covering back into place.

A new 10-watt bulb can be obtained at any service

shop.

10. Customer service

Before you call a service engineer, carry out the

following simple tests:

Is there a power failure? Check the fuses.

Is the plug firmly connected to the socket and is

the socket switched on? Check the socket by

plugging in another appliance, e.g. a table lamp.

Is the thermostat at the correct setting?

(normally 3 or 4).

Has the door not been closed properly causing

the inside temperature to rise too quickly?

Is the refrigerator level?

Has the ventilation become obstructed?

If after checking all the above points, the

refrigerator is still not working satisfactorily, contact

your nearest service engineer. State the problem,

model, product- and serial-number.

(Details of the model, product- and serialnumber

are to be found on the data label in the top left of

the inside compartment.)

This refrigerator is equipped with overheating

protection. An authorised service technician can

check whether this has been triggered or not.
