4. OPERATION
4.1 Switching On Your Unit
Setting“Off”： UnitOff
Setting“Min”： Less Cool Temperature
Setting“Med”or “MID”：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 running
continuously in order to maintain a low temperature in the cabinet.
◆For the first time you install your refrigerator, set the thermostat knob at “Med”.
Give your refrigerator time to cool down completely before adding food. It is the 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/fishes should always be stored on a shelf above raw meats/fishes to avoid
bacterial transfer. Keep raw meats/fishes in a container which 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 favours and drying out, pack or cover the food separately. Fruit and
vegetables do not need to be wrapped.
◆Always let pre-cooked food cool down before you put in 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.
