The refrigerator transfers heat from food placed inside the
appliance to the outside air.

There is a cooling coil located behind the rear wall of the
cabinet. This coil cools and removes moisture from the air.
A fan then circulates cold, dry air throughout the cabinet.
This air circulation means that foods are refrigerated far
more quickly than in refrigerators where the air remains
relatively static.

air circulation.
A light frosting will occasionally occur on the cold interior of
the freezer when the door is opened frequently. This is normal
and will disappear after a few days in most climates.
Make sure you fully close the freezer door after you load
or remove food. If the door is left partly open, a heavy
frost will coat the inside of the freezer. If a frost develops,
remove it. Take care to properly close the door and the
frost will not reoccur. If the food is placed forward of the
ribs on the bottom of the freezer, it will keep the door open.
Ensure that all food is stored behind the ribs.
Your new energy efcient appliance uses a high-speed
compressor and other energy efcient components that
may produce different noises to your old appliance.
These sounds are normal and include:
• compressor running noise.
• air movement noise from the small fan motor.
• occasional gurgling, similar to water boiling.
• a popping noise, heard during automatic defrosting.
• a clicking noise, just prior to the compressor starting up.
These noises are normal and not cause for alarm.
Further details can be found on page 13.
Set the temperature by using the main temperature
controls at the rear of the refrigerator compartment.
When you rst start your refrigerator, set both refrigerator
and freezer controls to MID. The refrigerator temperature
control is affected by altitude and it is recommended
that it be set warmer to compensate. e.g. at 1000 metres
above sea level set the refrigerator temperature control
to one setting warmer than MID.
tips and information
A good indication of optimal freezer temperature
is ice cream that is frozen, but still soft enough for
easy scooping.
For the fridge compartment, we recommend using
drinking water and simply adjusting the fridge controls
until the water is at your ideal temperature.
To change settings. When you change temperature settings,
make small adjustments and wait 24 hours before assessing
whether you need to make any further changes.
