3. Cleaning
Clean the refrigerator thoroughly at intervals, as
necessary. Remove the shelves; these, the cabinet
interior and the door should be washed with a warm
solution of sodium bi-carbonate. Finally wipe over with a
cloth rinsed in warm water only, and dry with a clean cloth.
Do not wash any plastic parts in water that is more than
hand warm, and do not expose them to dry heat. The
outside of the cabinet should be wiped down regularly with
a clean, damp cloth.
NEVER USE STRONG CHEMICALS OR ABRASIVE
CLEANING MATERIALS ON ANY PART OF THE CABINET.
4. Positioning the appliance
When first using this refrigerator please consider the
following points:
ENSURE REFRIGERATOR IS LEVEL
THE PIPEWORK AT THE BACK GETS HOT IN USE
THE REFRIGERATOR HAS NO 'MOTOR' AND IS
THEREFORE VIRTUALLY SILENT
ALLOW AT LEAST 3 HRS. FOR SIGNS OF
COOLING
During the refrigeration process, the appliance gives
off heat from the condenser (under the upper part of
the rear cover) into the surrounding air. The more ventilated
the condenser is, the more effective the refrigeration will
be.
The other condition for satisfactory operation is that the
appliance stands on a flat surface. This is best seen by
placing a glass of water on top of the appliance.
It is important that the appliance is not directly exposed
to radiated heat (sunlight, radiator, near an oven, etc.).
4.1. Installation instructions
The refrigerator is equipped with an electrically heated
absorption cooling unit which is virtually silent in operation.
The fridge is designed for free-standing installation, but can
be built-in if the following conditions are complied with to
ensure satisfactory operation and maximum cooling
efficiency.
IMPORTANT

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 middle of the setting
range on the thermostat
knob (Fig. 4), 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 a
