BEFORE INSTALLING THE FRIDGE

Before connecting your refrigerator to the power supply, check that the voltage stated on the rating label of your appliance corresponds to the voltage in your home. A  different voltage could damage the appliance.
The plug is the only way to unplug the appliance and should therefore be accessible at all times. To turn off main power to the appliance, turn it off and then detach the plug from the outlet.
The appliance must be grounded. The manufacturer is not responsible for damages that may occur as a result of usage without grounding.

INSTALLATION

Install the appliance in a dry, well ventilated room. The installation location should neither be exposed to direct sunlight nor near a heat source, e.g. a cooker, radiator, etc.
To ensure adequate ventilation for the appliance, allow a minimum of 10 cm of airspace on each side of the cabinet.
For uneven surfaces, front feet can be aligned.

AMBIENT TEMPERATURE

This appliance is designed to operate in ambient temperature between 16°C and 38°C. If these temperatures are exceeded, i.e. colder or warmer, the appliance will not operate  correctly. If the ambient temperatures are exceeded for long periods, the temperature in the fridge will rise above 4°C and food spoilage may occur.

BEFORE PLACING FOOD IN THE FRIDGE

• Remove all packaging.
• Allow the appliance to run empty for 2 – 3 hours so the compartment can cool to the appropriate temperature.
• Clean the inside of the appliance with warm water and a little liquid detergent to remove manufacturing and transportation dust.

TEMPERATURE CONTROL

The fridge is controlled with a temperature control knob located inside the appliance.
Adjust the control knob as desired to suit your individual preference.

0 is off setting
1 is warmest setting
5 is coldest setting

In the 0 position the appliance does not operate (the cooling system is switched off), but power supply is not interrupted.
The running time and temperature are affected by where the fridge is located, how often the door is opened and the temperature of the room the fridge is located in.
When you use the appliance for the first time or after defrosting, adjust the control knob to the coldest setting for at least 2 hours before introducing food to be stored, and then readjust to the middle setting.

MOVING YOUR APPLIANCE
If the appliance is turned off for any reason, wait for 10 minutes before turning it back on. This will allow the refrigeration system pressures to equalise before restarting.

• Turn off the appliance and unplug it from the mains socket.
• Remove all food. Also remove all mobile parts (shelves, accessories, etc.) or fix them into the fridge to avoid any shock.

Relocate and install. If the appliance has been left on its side for any length of time, leave it standing upright for at least 10 minutes before turning on.
Your appliance uses isobutane (R600a) as a refrigerant. Although R600a is an environmentally friendly and natural gas, it is explosive. Therefore you should be careful during  shipment and installation to prevent your appliance’s cooler elements from being damaged. In the event of a leak caused by damage to the cooler elements, move your fridge  from open flame or heat sources and ventilate the room where the appliance is located for a few minutes.

STORING FOOD IN THE FRIDGE

The fridge helps to extend the storage times of fresh perishable foods.
Fresh food care
For best results:

• Store foods that are very fresh and of good quality.
• Ensure that food is well wrapped or covered before it is stored. This will prevent food from dehydrating,deteriorating in colour or losing taste and will help maintain  freshness. It will also prevent odour transfer.
• Make sure that strong smelling foods are wrapped or covered and stored away from foods such abutter, milk and cream which can be tainted by strong odours.
• Cool hot foods down before placing them in the fridge.

Dairy foods and eggs

• Most pre-packed dairy foods have a recommended ‘use by /best before/best by/’ date stamped on them. Store them in the fridge and use within the recommended time.
• Butter can become tainted by strong smelling foods so it is best stored in a sealed container.
• Eggs can be stored in the fridge.

Red meat

• Place fresh red meat on a plate and loosely cover with waxed paper, plastic wrap or foil.
• Store cooked and raw meat on separate plates. This will prevent any juiceless from the  raw meat from contaminating the cooked product.

Poultry

• Fresh whole birds should be rinsed inside and out with cold running water,dried and placed on a plate. Cover loosely with plastic wrap or foil.
• Poultry pieces should also be stored this way.
  Whole poultry should never be stuffed until just before cooking, otherwise food poisoning may result.

Fish and seafood

• Whole fish and fillets should be used on the day of purchase. Until required,refrigerate on a plate loosely covered with plastic wrap, waxed paper or foil.
• If storing overnight or longer, take particular care to select very fresh fish.Whole fish should be rinsed in cold water to remove loose scales and dirt and then patted dry with  paper towels. Place whole fish or fillets in a sealed plastic bag.
• Keep shellfish chilled at all times. Use within 1 – 2 days.

Precooked foods and leftovers

• These should be stored in suitable covered containers so that the food will not dry out.
• Keep for only 1 – 2 days.
• Reheat leftovers only once and until steaming hot.

Vegetable and fresh fruit

• The vegetable container is the optimum storage location for fresh fruit and vegetables.
• Take care not to store the following at temperatures of less than 7°C for long periods:Citrus fruit, melons, aubergines, pineapple, papaya, courgettes, passion fruit,  cucumber, peppers, tomatoes.
• Undesirable changes will occur at low temperatures such as softening of the flesh, browning and/or accelerated decaying.
• Do not refrigerate avocados (until they are ripe), bananas, mangoes.

MAKING ICE CUBES
Fill the ice cube tray (not supplied) with ¾ full of drinking water and place in the ice box compartment. If the ice cube tray is stuck to the ice box compartment, loosen with a  blunt tool only.
To loosen the ice cubes, twist the ice cube tray slightly or hold briefly under flowing water.
NOTE:
This ice box compartment is not a true freezer compartment and may not freeze items.
The temperature in this compartment does not get cold enough to freeze food safely. A colder setting can be used, but other items in the fridge may also be affected.

DEFROSTING THE ICE BOX

The ice box will need defrosting periodically or when the frost is more than 3mm thick.

1. Unplug the appliance.

2. Remove the ice tray.
   • Ensure the drip tray is located correctly under the ice box.

3. When ice box is fully defrosted, clean the inside (see ‘Cleaning and maintenance’).

4. Close the door and plug the appliance in.

5. Set the temperature control knob to the normal setting.

DOOR CONVERSION

If you need to hinge your door on the opposite side it is recommended that you call your local authorised service agent to make this conversion or ask a technician.
Before you reverse the door, you should ensure the appliance is unplugged and empty. It is recommended to use a crosshead screwdriver and a spanner (both not supplied).

1. Remove the top right hinge cover.

2. Remove the screws and then top hinge.

3. Remove the top left screw cover.

4. Move the hole cover from the left side to the right side. Lift the door and place it on a padded surface to prevent it from scratching.

5. Remove the levelling foot. Unscrew and remove the bottom hinge pin. Reverse the bottom hinge and refit the bottom hinge pin.
   

6. Fit the bottom hinge and replace the levelling foot.

7. Fit the door back on. Ensure the door is aligned horizontally and vertically so that the seals are closed on all sides before finally tightening the top hinge.

8. Fix the top hinge on the top of the appliance.

9. Fit the hinge covers.

TIPS FOR SAVING ENERGY

For the most energy efficient use of your appliance:

• Ensure your fridge has adequate ventilation as recommended in the installation instructions.
• Allow warm food and drinks to cool down before placing in the appliance.
• Keep door openings to a minimum.
• Open the appliance as briefly as possible.
• Ensure that the fridge door is always closed properly.

OPERATING NOISES
Normal noises

• Refrigerant is flowing through the tubing.

CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE

Do not use abrasive cleaning agents or solvents.

1. Set the temperature control knob to the 0 position and disconnect the mains plug from the mains socket.
2. Take out the food and store in a cool location.
3. Clean the appliance with a soft cloth, warm water and detergent.
4. Wipe the door seal with clear water only and then wipe dry thoroughly.
5. After cleaning reconnect and adjust the temperature control knob as desired.
6. Put the food back into the appliance.

Cleaning Tips

• Remove all shelves, door shelves, vegetable containers, removable accessories (such as egg tray and ice cube tray if included) and/or drawers from the appliance. Wash  them in warm soapy water with a soft sponge. Rinse and dry thoroughly.
• Wipe the interior parts (including door switch, temperature control knob and lamp cover) with a damp cloth soaked in a mixture of warm water and dishwashing liquid.  For stubborn stains, use baking soda.

THE COLDEST PART OF THE REFRIGERATOR
The symbol indicates the location of the coldest part of your refrigerator. This area is in between the vegetable compartment at the bottom and the symbol at the top, or the  shelf at the same height.
In order to maintain the temperature in this area, make sure not to change the position of this shelf.
In pulsed air refrigerators (equipped with a fan) or No Frost models, the coldest area symbol is not shown because the temperature is uniform throughout the interior.
INSTALLING THE TEMPERATURE INDICATOR
WARNING: This indicator is only intended for use in your refrigerator. Do not use it in another refrigerator (as the coldest area will not be the same) or for any other purpose.
TEMPERATURE INDICATOR: THE COLDEST PART OF YOUR REFRIGERATOR

CHECKING THE TEMPERATURE IN THE COLDEST AREA

• Using the temperature indicator, you should regularly check that the temperature is correct in the coldest part of your refrigerator. The temperature inside your refrigerator depends on a number of factors, such as the outside room temperature, how full your refrigerator is, and how often you open the door. Take these factors into consideration when adjusting your appliance.

When the indicator shows “OK”, it means your thermostat is set properly and the temperature inside your refrigerator is correct.
If the indicator is white it means the temperature is too high, so you should increase the thermostat and wait for 12 hours before checking the indicator again.
After loading the refrigerator or opening the door, the indicator may turn white for a few seconds.

OK
Correct setting
Temperature too high – adjust the thermostat
