    Why are we all talking about raising the number to turn the fridge temperature down - always got me that one!

    Maybe it's a rational fridge and requires you to lower the number to lower the temperature - just a thought - I'll go now!! :grinheart

    The manual for my Bosch fridge says that the recommended temperature is 4 degrees. That's one of those little gems of information that stick in your head for a lifetime!

    There's a label thingy inside mine which tells me the model number. It's hidden on the side wall behind the bit that has the light in, so it's not "obvious". Especially if the fridge is full.

    Then mine would appear to be a "15W max" :rotfl:
    If you lend someone a tenner and never see them again, it was probably worth it.

    There's one somewhere. Either inside, or on the back of the machine. It's been a requirement for a long time.

    Erm "Type 134A" is the type of refridgerant used!!!! ROFL.

    In my fridge 4 deg is when the ham in the meat drawer is on the verge of freezing. Go on MBE and splash out 30 bob on a fridge thermometer - You know it makes sense!
