SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

Check that the voltage of the power supply in your home is the same as the voltage shown on the rating label of this product.
This device may be only used by children 8 years old or older and persons with limited physical, sensory and mental capabilities and/or lack of experience and knowledge, provided that they have been instructed in use of the device by a responsible person who understands the associated risks.
Keep ventilation opening, in the appliance enclosure or in the built-in structure, clear of obstruction.
Do not use mechanical devices or other means to accelerate the defrosting process, other than those recommended by the manufacturer.
Do not use electrical appliances inside the food storage compartments of the appliance, unless they are of the type recommended by the manufacturer.
Do not damage the refrigerant circuit.
If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer or its service agent or a similarly qualified person in order to avoid a hazard.
It is recommended to check regularly the supply cord for any sign of possible deterioration, and the appliance should not be used if the cable is damaged.
To avoid injury or death from electrical shock, do not operate the appliance with wet hands while standing on a wet surface.
It is not recommended to use this refrigerator with an extension cord or power board. Please ensure that the appliance is plugged directly into the electrical outlet.
When positioning the appliance, ensure that there is at least a 5 cm clearance at the sides and a 10 cm clearance at the back as this is the main outlet for heat. This will allow for adequate ventilation.
Do not place hot food or drink into the refrigerator before it cools down to room temperature.
Close the door immediately after putting in any items so the inside temperature will not rise dramatically.
Keep appliance away from any heat source or direct sunlight.
To fix stably, the appliance must be placed on a flat and solid surface. It should not be laid on any soft material.
Do not place any other appliance on top of the refrigerator, and do not wet it.
Do not store something like ether, methanol, gasoline, which is easy to evaporate burn or explode.
Do not use outdoors or in wet conditions.
Never pull the cord to disconnect it from the outlet. Grasp the plug and pull it from the outlet.
Keep the cord away from heated surfaces.
This appliance has been incorporated with a grounded plug. Please ensure the wall outlet in your house is well earthed.
Connect your refrigerator to an independent electrical socket and use a safe ground wire.
Defrost the freezer at least once a month because too much frost may affect refrigeration.
Turn on electricity only 5 minutes later after electricity goes off. Otherwise, the compressor may be damaged.

This appliance contains the coolant isobutane (R600a), a natural gas which is environmentally friendly. Although it is flammable, it does not damage the ozone layer and does not increase the greenhouse effect. The use of this coolant has, however, led to a slight increase in the noise level of the appliance. In addition to the noise of the compressor, you might be able to hear the coolant flowing around the system. This is unavoidable and does not have any adverse effect on the performance of the appliance. Care must be taken during the transportation and setting up of the appliance that no parts of the cooling system are damaged. Leaking coolant can damage the eyes.

Special Notes

Children between the ages of 3 and 8 are allowed to fill refrigerators with food and remove food.
When positioning the unit, make sure that the power cord is not pinched or damaged.
Make sure that there are no multiple sockets or power supplies on the back of the unit.

To avoid contamination of food, please follow the instructions below:

A prolonged opening of the door can lead to a significant rise in temperature in the compartments of the appliance.
Regularly clean surfaces that may come into contact with food. Clean the water drain regularly.
Store raw meat and fish in suitable containers in the refrigerator so that meat and fish do not come into contact with or drip on other foods.

WARNING
When using, servicing and disposing of the unit, pay attention to the left symbol on the rear of the unit or on the compressor. This symbol warns of possible fires. There are flammable substances in the refrigerant lines and in the compressor. Keep the appliance away from sources of fire during use, maintenance and disposal.

Notes on ambient temperature
Install this unit in a location where the ambient temperature corresponds to the climate class indicated on the unit‘s nameplate.

SN|

Low

| This cooling unit is designed for use at ambient

temperatures of 10-32 °C.

---|---|---
N|

Moderate

| This cooling unit is intended for use at ambient

temperatures of 16-43 °C.

The ambient temperature influences the internal temperature and humidity of the beverage cooler. For optimal operation of the beverage cooler, we recommend an ambient temperature of 23°C to 25°C.

INSTALLATION NOTES

It is important that you leave your device upright for at least 4 hours before switching it on to allow the cooling system to adjust.

When you move the unit, do not tilt it more than 45 degrees. Do not apply force to parts such as the condenser, door or handle. They can distort and interfere with the operation of the cooler. Make sure ALL packaging is removed before installation.
Make sure there is enough space around the product to allow air to circulate freely.
Do not place the product near heat sources, in direct sunlight or in humid rooms.
Make sure that the supply voltage of the power outlet corresponds to the voltage indicated on the type plate.
Insert the plug firmly into the socket.
The socket-outlet must be earthed. Do not plug the plug into unearthed sockets and do not use an extension cable.
The product is equipped with adjustable feet. Once the product is in place, adjust them so that the refrigerator is level and does not slip.

Note: Do not place the product in places where the ambient temperature can fall below 5 °C, e.g. in the garage or shed.

START AND OPERATION

It is important that upon receipt you stand your appliance upright for at least 4 hours before switching on to allow the system to settle
When using the cooler for the first time, set the thermostat to setting 3 or 4. When the refrigeration system starts, you will hear the quiet hum of the compressor. You may also hear the circulation of liquids and gases. This is normal on first startup, Generally it will take 2-3 hours for the appliance to reach temperature. Once temperature has been reached then put the beverages inside.
See below for location of thermostat on this model.

CLEANING AND CARE

Outside
The outside of your refrigerator can be cleaned using a soft cloth moistened with a mild detergent solution. Wipe dry with kitchen towel. Do not use chemical or abrasive cleaners on any part of your refrigerator as these could permanently damage or discolor the surfaces.

Internal Cleaning
Wipe up any internal spills immediately with a soft cloth moistened with a mild detergent solution. Dry thoroughly.

Shelves and Guards
Any shelves can be removed and cleaned separately.

Door Seals
Ensure that the door seals are kept free from debris at all times. If they don‘t seal properly this can waste energy and cause refrigeration unit to overrun

REVERSING THE DOOR

The door of the cooler can be reversed quite easily. See the illustration below. It is best if you have a friend help you due to the weight, and to assist with alignment. . Always unplug the cooler before reversing the door.

TROUBLESHOOTING

Problem	Possible cause and suggested solution
Condensation on outside of door.	Humidity in the room is high. This is also

to be expected if the room is very warm.
Condensation on the inside of the cabinet.| This is also caused by high humidity. You can minimize this by only keeping the door open only as long as you need to.
Too cold / not cold enough

inside the cabinet.

| Adjust thermostat up or down accordingly. Make sure nothing is stopping the door from sealing properly.
No power to cooler.| Check power cord, power supply or on/off switch.
