8 - MAINTENANCE 8.1.- DEFROSTINGWhen the ice thickness gets to 10 mm (3/8 in.) you need to defrost the evap- orator. Switch off the unit and let all of the ice melt. In order to increase the speed of this procedure you many leave open the cabinet marine door. DO NOT REMOVE THE ICE WITH SHARP- 7.1. - The FRIDGE thermostat may beadjusted by turning the knob from “ 1” thru “7”.Position “0” cuts off the compressor (Defrost). Position “ 1 “ means warmer while position “7” means cold- er. 7.2. - The FRIDGE thermostat (white box) must be set initially on 3 - 4 read- ing, then turned clockwise or anti- clockwise to rise or lower the box temperature which should be normal- ly +2°/ +6°C (36°F / 43°F). AFRIDGE cabinet temperature should never drop below 0°C (32°F).7.3. -The FREEZER thermostat (bluebox) must be set initially on “4 “ then tum the knob clockwise or anticlock- wise in order to rise or lower the tem- perature which shall be between -6°/ -18 °C (21°F / 0°F). The FRIDGE cabinet temperature should never rise above 0°C (32°F). Standard values for frozen food stor- age are : 1 week -6°C (21°F) = (1 STAR - * symbol) 1 month: -12°C (10°F) = (2 STARS - *symbol) 6 months: -18°C (0°F) = (3 STARS - ***symbol)7.4.- DOUBLE THERMOSTATOur double thermostat is a control which includes 1 fridge thermostat, 1 freezer thermostat and a 2 position change over switch. LEFTPOSITION = FRIDGE (Fridge thermostat selection) RIGHTPOSITION = FREEZER (Freezer thermostat selection) Thermosta adjustment: select fridge thermostat and adjust as described at 7.2; select freezer thermostat and adjust as described at 7.3 6.1.- Use the vertical ice tray(A090900) appropriate to the evapo- rator and holding plate installed verti- cally with the “bubble” marine bag (A090901). 7-THERMOSTAT ADJUSTMENT 6 - ICE CUBES 5.1.- FRIDGE5.1.1. - Put the food in retaining the seals and removing the useless pack- ing. 5.1.2.- Loose food should be hermet- ically sealed with food paper or PVC or put in a sealed box before being put into the fridge. 5.1.3.- Do not cover grills and shelves with sheets or lids. Keep food spaced in order to allow air circulation. 5.1.4. - Upper shelves are warmer than lower shelves: load food appro- priately.5.2. - FREEZER5.2.1. - Frozen food should be stored in a middle shelf of the freezer com- partment. 5.2.2.- Food to be frozen should be packed in small pieces and placed in the bottom or anyway in the coldest part of the freezer, never in touch with already frozen food. The bottom of a freezer should have a grid in order to prevent direct contact of frozen food with the bottom wall unless this is a part of the evaporator. 5 - POSITIONING FOOD 4.1.- Load warm food into the fridge.4.2.- Scrape the ice in the evaporator using a metal scraper. marine knife etc.. 4.3.- Put food directly in contact with the evaporator. 4.4.- Clean the fridge with solvents or other aggressive chemicals. 4 - WHAT NOT TO DO

If it has a front opening, lock the door open.
