USING THE THERMOSTAT
OPERATION
5
The thermostat control knob for the refrigerator
and chiller is located beside the chiller
compartment.
The first time you turn the unit on, adjust the
thermostat control knob to “3” and give your
refrigerator time to cool down completely
before adding food; a full 24 hours is
recommended.
After it is fully cooled, test it and adjust towards
“1” to make less cool or towards “6” to cool
more to best suit your needs. However, the
setting of “3” should be appropriate for home
or office refrigerator use.
NOTE: Turning the thermostat control knob to
the “OFF” position will stop the cooling cycle
but does not shut off the power to the unit.
