Help LEC ELan Fridge/Freezer - 26th Mar 2010 10:13pm
Not quite the right forum but it will do.
I have a LEC Elan fridge freezer. It has the usual dial marked 1 to 6 and it also has a switch.
When I first got it I assumed the switch is a fast-freeze, however it would seem that on Elan models you just set the dial to 6 to fast freeze. Some documentations say the switch is for economy mode.
If I have the switch set to on, the tube in the fridge ices up very badly, if I have it set to off it doesn't.
I put a power meter on it, when the switch in on (eco-mode?) it draws a constant 14W, when the compressor switches on it draws an additional 70W.
When the switch is off, it draws no power except the 70W when the compressor comes on.
From my meter, it costs less to run when the switch is off, and with the icing up behaviour it looks like a fast-freeze switch not an eco-switch.
Has anyone any specific information relating to LEC Elan Fridge-Freezer?
