I purchased the unit from a private party and the original owners manual was not available. Having the ability to download it was extremely helpful and clarified operating the equipment immensely. This is a complicated unit and without the manual I would not have been able to maximize it's potential. Thank you.

OPERATION
Setting the temperature
The temperature inside the refrigerator and freezer is regulated by a single thermostat with 6 temperature positions and one «OFF» (O) position. Position 1 = minimum cold Position 6 = maximum cold Turn the thermostat dial to the required position; the intermediate position is usually the most suitable. The thermostat setting can vary as the temperature inside the refrigerator compartment depends on the following factors: - room temperature - how often the door is opened - how much food is stored - position of the appliance Important If the refrigerator is not defrosting correctly, it is possible that because a very low temperature has been selected and the motor is working continuously, which prevents the defrost cycle from operating. To ensure correct defrosting, a lower number should be selected on the thermostat and you should notice that the motor cuts out from time to time, which is correct. If you wish to return to a lower temperature, turn the thermostat to a higher number; however you should turn the setting lower occasionally to allow automatic defrosting. To ensure that the appliance is working efficiently when the room temperature drops below 14°C, a switch is located next to the thermostat (Fig. 13). No damage can be caused by leaving the switch in this position for any period of time (see page 18 Low ambient operation).

The freezer compartment
The four-star freezer compartment is suitable for storage of commercially frozen food and for freezing fresh foods.
Freezing fresh food
It is not necessary to adjust the thermostat setting when freezing fresh food.Depress the ambient switch at least 12 hours before loading food to be frozen.(Fig.13) In any 24 hours you can freeze up to 10 kg. Place food to be frozen in the upper drawer of the freezer as this is the coldest part. If large quantities of food are to be stored, remove all drawers and baskets from the appliance and place food on cooling shelves. Pay careful attention not to exceed load limit stated on the side of the upper section. Caution In the event of a power cut the food in the freezer will not be affected if the power cut is short and if the freezer is full. Do not open the door. Should the food begin to thaw, it must be consumed quickly and must not be re-frozen (see page 16). DEFROSTED COOKED FOOD MUST NOT BE REFROZEN.
Thawing
Food can be thawed in a number of ways, depending on the type of food and the size of the packs. Meat, fish and fruit should be thawed in the refrigerator compartment and small pieces of meat or poultry can even be cooked while still frozen, but you must ensure that it is thoroughly cooked through. Vegetables should be directly immersed in boiling water; readycooked dishes can be placed directly in the oven in their aluminium wrapping. A microwave oven is particularly suitable for thawing any type of frozen or deep-frozen food: follow the oven instructions, particularly regarding the placement of aluminium wrapping or containers in the oven.

The appliance is provided with two plastic ice cube trays. Fill the trays 3/4 full to allow the ice to expand and place them in one of the freezer drawers. To turn out the ice cubes simply give the tray a slight twist to release the cubes. 11
