It is an important part of the equipment that lightens household iabour and contributes to the convenience, happiness and health of all members of the family. Proper refrigeration is assured with the temperature kept always below 50° Fahr., which modern science agrees is the danger point. Unnecessary food spoilage is eliminated and the health of every member of the family is protected with Prestcold. It is possible to be away over the week-end or even longer without worrying about the food supply. Prestcold is a definite economy. Needless food spoilage is avoided, and the ability to purchase in larger quantities at a great re- duction in price makes it one of the greatest necessities in the modern home. PRESTCOLD COLD CONTROL The Prestcold control gives eight freezing speeds, and their principal uses are as follows :— Position No. | On this position, defrosting takes place automatically without the necessity to switch off the machine or leave the cabinet door open. Position No. 2. Defrosting 66 ve) This provides ‘‘ trickle refrigeration ’’ useful for week-ends. The machine is not running the necessary time to make ice, but the cabinet itself will maintain a low enough temperature to preserve foodstuffs. Position No. 3 Provides the right temperature for food preservation and will freeze ice usually in from four to five hours. Positions Nos. 4 and 5 These are the positions for normal operation. Ice will form in three to four hours, and the proper temperature will be maintained automatically. Positions Nos. 6 and 7 Provide fast freezing speeds for ice or ice puddings without affecting the inside temperature to any great extent. Position No. 8 To be used for quick freezing of ice, puddings or ice cream, and the time for this freezing would be usually about half the time necessary if the machine were left on normal operating position.
