OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
CONTROLS
FIG. 1
The refrigerator can be run on either 240 V or LP gas.
Changing between these modes of operation is carried
out by means of control buttons positioned as shown in
fig. 1.
The energy selector (A) can be set at either I (= 240 V),
(= LP gas) or 0.
The refrigerator temperature is controlled by a thermo-
stat (B). Please note that the thermostat has no "off"
position.
The refrigerator is fitted with a safety device which auto-
matically shuts off the supply of gas if the flame goes
out. The safety device can be opened manually by
depressing knob (C).
The piezoelectric igniter discharges sparks over the
burner when the button (D) is depressed.
In the flame viewer (E) you can see a blue light when the
flame is alight.
STARTING THE REFRIGERATOR
The position numbers refer to fig. 1.
LP Gas operation
After initial installation, servicing, or changing gas cylin-
ders etc., the gas pipes may contain some air which
should be allowed to escape by briefly turning on the
refrigerator or other appliances. This will ensure that the
flame lights immediately.
1.
Make sure that all valves between the gas container
and the refrigerator are open.
2.
Turn the energy selector (A) to position
3.
Depress the safety device control (C) and hold it
down while depressing the piezoelectric igniter but-
ton (D) repeatedly.
4.
Check the flame indicator (E) to see whether the
flame is alight.
5.
Keep the safety device control depressed for a further
10-15 seconds.
6.
Release the safety device control and again check to
see that the flame is alight.
To terminate gas operation, turn knob (A) to 0.

240 V Operation

Set the energy selector (A) to position I .
REGULATING THE TEMPERATURE
The position number refers to fig. 1.
It will take several hours for the refrigerator to reach
normal operating temperature.
The temperature of the main compartment of the refrig-
erator is controlled by a thermostat. The thermostat knob
(B) should be set at 3-5. If a lower (colder) temperature
is desired, set the thermostat to a higher figure.
FOOD STORAGE
Always keep food in closed containers. Never put hot
food in the refrigerator; allow it to cool first.
Never keep items in the refrigerator which might
give off flammable gases.
The frozen food compartment is intended for the storage
of frozen food and for making ice. It is not suitable for
freezing items of food.
Never put bottles or cans of fizzy drinks in the frozen
food storage compartment as they may burst when
freezing. Also don't give children ice lollies straight from
the frozen food as they could cause frost burns.
Most kinds of frozen food can be stored in the frozen
food compartment for about a month. This period of time
may vary, however, and it is important to follow the
instructions on the individual packets.
ICE-MAKING
Fill the ice tray just below the brim with drinking water
and place it on the freezer shelf.
It is possible to make ice faster by turning the control
knob temporarily to its highest value but do not forget to
turn it back to its regular setting afterwards as the
refrigerator might otherwise become too cold.
DEFROSTING
Frost will gradually accumulate on the refrigerating sur-
faces. It must not be allowed to grow too thick as it acts
as an insulator and adversely affects refrigerator perfor-
mance.
Check the formation of frost regularly every week and
when it gets about 3 mm thick, defrost the refrigerator.
To defrost the refrigerator, turn it off and remove the ice
tray and all food items. Warning: normally the tempera-
ture of items of frozen foods would rise unduly during
defrosting and so they should be consumed within 24 h
or discarded.
Do not try to accelerate defrosting by using any kind of
.
heating appliance, as this might damage the plastic
surfaces of the refrigerator. Neither should any sharp
objects be used to scrape off the ice.
The defrost water runs from a collector channel to a
receptacle at the rear of the refrigerator where it evapo-
rates. Defrost water in the freezer compartment should
be mopped up with a cloth.
When all ice has melted, wipe the refrigerator dry and
restart it.
