ThermostatSetting
•Thermostatautomaticallyregulatesthe insidetemperatureof the refrigerator
compartment andfreezercompartment.Byrotatingtheknobfromposition 1.to5.,
coldertemperaturescanbe obtained.
•«0 »position showsthermostatisclosedandnocoolingisavailable.
•Forshort-termstorageoffoodinthefreezercompartment,youcansetthe knob
between minimumand mediumposition.(1-3)
•Forlong-termstorage of food inthefreezercompartment,you can setknopmedium
position.(3-4)
Notethat; theambianttemperature, temperatureofthefreshlystoredfoodandhow
oftenthedoorisopened,affectsthetemperatureintherefrigeratorcompartment.If
required,changethetemperaturesetting.
•When youfirst switch on theappliance, forstartingasuitable cooling,the appliance
should work24hourscontinuouslyuntilitcools downtosufficienttemperature.

Defrosting
Forcoolercompartment ;
•Defrostingoccursautomatically in refrigeratorcompartmentduringoperation ;the
defrostwateris collectedbythe evaporatingtrayandevoparatesautomatically.
•The evaporatingtrayand the defrostwaterdrain holeshouldbe cleanedperiodically
with defrostdrain plug to preventthe waterfromcollectingon the bottomof the
