Operation
• This appliance employs a Forced Air Circulation cooling system. If the circulation of air is obstructed, cooling
will be less effective. Pay attention to the following:
o Make sure the air outlets and air inlets are free of obstruction.
o Keep some space between the items and the walls, doors and ceiling.
o Reduce the time that the doors are open to a minimum.
o Let the unit operate empty for at least 1 hour before placing items inside
• The temperature inside should stay between 0 - 10 °C. Adjust the thermostat settings accordingly. The
ambient temperature will greatly affect which setting is needed to achieve this temperature range.
• Do not set the thermostat to low either, this may cause ice formation and eventually damage to the
appliance.
• Activate the appliance using the “ON/OFF” switch located at the front, next to the digital control panel. The
screen on the control panel will display the actual temperature measured.
