4. OPERATION

4.1 Switching On Your Unit

 The temperature selector knob is located on the right hand wall of the refrigerator interior.

Setting “Off”：Unit Off

Setting “Min”：Less Cool Temperature

Setting “Med”：Normal Operation (adequate for most situations)

Setting “Max”：Coolest Temperature

 During high ambient temperatures, e.g., on hot summer days, it may be necessary to set the thermostat to the

Coolest setting (position “Max”). This may cause the compressor to run continuously in order to maintain a low

temperature in the cabinet. When you first install your refrigerator, set the thermostat knob at “Med”.

 Give your refrigerator time to cool down completely before adding food. It is best to wait 24 hours before adding

food. The thermostat knob controls the temperature. When the thermostat control knob is set to OFF, the

refrigerator will not be running.

4.2 Noise Inside the Unit

You may notice that your unit makes some unusual noises. Most of these are perfectly normal, but you should be aware

of them.

These noises are caused by the circulation of the refrigerant liquid in the cooling system. It has become more

pronounced since the introduction of CFC-free gases. This is not a fault and will not affect the performance of your unit.

This is the compressor motor working, as it pumps the refrigerant around the system.

4.3 Tips for Keeping Food in the Unit

 Cooked meats/fish should always be stored on a shelf above raw meats/fish to avoid bacterial transfer. Keep raw

meats/fish in a container that is large enough to collect juices and cover it properly. Place the container on the lowest

shelf.

 Leave space around your food to allow air to circulate inside the unit. Ensure all parts of the unit are kept cool.

 To prevent transfer of flavors and drying out, pack or cover the food separately. Fruits and vegetables do not need to

be wrapped.

 Always let pre-cooked food cool down before you put it into the unit. This will help to maintain the internal

temperature of the unit.

 To prevent cold air escaping from the unit, try to limit the number of times you open the door. We recommend that

you only open the door when you need to put food in or take food out.
