NAMES OF THE PARTS HOW TO OPERATE
Starting your new Refrigerator
1. Clean the refrigerator thoroughly. Wipe the outside with a soft dry cloth, the
interior with a clean moist cloth.
2. Insert the power supply cord into the socket.
3.Turn the thermostat dial to “7”. Close the door and let the refrigerator
operate for 15-20 minutes.
Temperature control
To control the internal temperature, adjust
the thermostat dial. The dial is numbered
from 1-7.
Number 1 is the warmest setting, number 7
the coldest.
The dial may be set any place on the
scale.
It does not have to be set exactly on a
number. To make ice cubes in the chiller
compartment, adjust the thermostat to the
coldest setting.
Note-the bar fridge will only make ice with
the ice tray provided.
How to defrost
Defrost the refrigerator when the frost accumulated on the evaporator is
about 5mm (1/5inch) thick.
Set the thermostat dial to “OFF”. Keep drip tray in place. Defrosting usually
takes a few hours. To defrost quickly remove all goods from the refrigerator
and leave the door open. Never use a knife or other metal instrument to
scrape ice/frost from the freezer. After defrosting, empty water from drip tray
and return the thermostat dial to the desired position.
NOTE: Wait 3-5 minutes before restarting if you unplug the refrigerator.
The unit may fail to operate properly if restarted too quickly.

WHAT TO DO...
When you do not use the fridge for a prolonged period:
•Remove the power plug from the power point.
•Remove all contents from the fridge.
•Dry the interior and leave the door open for a few days.

This may save you an expensive service call.
If the refrigerator seems too warm inside:
•Check that the door has not been opened too frequently or for too long.
•Check that the interior circulation is not obstructed by having too many
goods stored. (The fridge is overloaded)
•Did you store anything hot, without first cooling it to room temperature?
•Is there sufficient clearance around all sides and above the fridge?
If the fridge starts making any unusual noises:
•Is it wobbling? Re-level it and check if it now operates normally.
•Have any objects fallen behind the fridge? If so, remove them and check if
operation is now normal.
•Are any containers inside the fridge vibrating or resonating? If so, rearrange
them then check to see if operation has returned to normal.
