This appliance contains the coolant isobutane (R600a),a natural gas that 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.

Notes on daily use

  • Do not put hot food in the machine.
  • Do not place food directly against the rear panel.
  • Frozen food must not be refrozen after defrosting.
  • Store packaged frozen food according to the instructions of the frozen food manufacturer.
  • Do not place carbonated fizzy drinks in the freezer compartment as the pressure they generate can cause them to explode and damage the appliance.
  • Open the door as rarely as possible.
  • Do not leave the door open too long.
  • Do not set the thermostat too low.
  • To reduce energy consumption, leave all accessories, such as drawers, shelves or racks in the appliance.

Notes on installation

  • Unpack the machine and check for damage. Do not connect the machine if it is damaged. Report any damage immediately to the manufacturer. Save the original packaging for possible return shipment.
  • Wait at least four hours before connecting the unit to allow the coolant to distribute itself in the cooling circuit.
  • Ensure that there is sufficient air circulation around the unit. Otherwise, the unit may overheat.
  • If possible, the spacers on the unit should rest against the wall. This prevents burns caused by touching the hot compressor or condenser.
  • The unit must not be installed near radiators or cookers.
  • Make sure that the mains plug is always accessible after the unit has been installed.
  • Install this unit in a location where the ambient temperature corresponds to the climate class indicated on the unit‘s nameplate:

  • Do not clean the machine with metal objects. Do not use sharp objects to remove frost from the machine. Use a plastic scraper.
  • All electrical work required to service the unit should be performed by a qualifi ed electrician or competent person.

Special instructions for freezers and chest freezers

  • Children between the ages of 3 and 8 are allowed to fi ll refrigerators with food and remove food.
  • When positioning the machine, make sure that the mains cable is not pinched or damaged.
  • Ensure that there are no multiple sockets or power supply units on the rear of the machine.

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

  • Prolonged opening of the door can cause a signifi cant temperature rise in the compartments of the unit.
  • Clean surfaces that may come into contact with food regularly. Clean the water drain regularly.
  • Store raw meat and fi sh in suitable containers in the refrigerator so that meat and fi sh do not come into contact with or drip onto other foods.

Notes on the freezer compartments

  • Two-star freezer compartments are suitable for storing pre-frozen food, storing or making ice cream and making ice cubes.
  • One-, two- and three-star freezer compartments are not suitable for freezing fresh food.
  • If the refrigerator is left empty for a long period of time, switch it off, let it defrost, clean it, dry it and leave the door open to prevent mould from forming in the appliance.

PLACEMENT

  • There should be left at least 200 cm³ for ventilation.

  • The distance between wall and the refrigerator side should be at least 20mm.

  • The bottom should be left at least 50mm for air flowing air passing through must not be preheated.

  • Entire cooling system should be considered in the ventilation.

  • The following four pictures show four installation ways:

  • This refrigerator is designed to be free standing installation only, and should not be recessed or built-in

  • (Fully recessed). Allow 13cm of space between the back and sides of the refrigerator, which allows the proper air circulation to cool the heat sink.

  • Failure to do so can possibly cause the fire.

  • Place your refrigerator on a surface that is strong enough to support it when it is fully loaded.

  • Locate the refrigerator away from direct sunlight and sources of heat (stove, heater, radiator, etc.). Direct sunlight may affect the acrylic coating and heat sources may increase electrical consumption. Extreme cold ambient temperatures may also cause the unit not to perform properly.

  • This refrigerator uses thermoelectric refrigeration technology (no compressor) and is not designed for stor- age in hot areas like garages, warehouses or outdoors since it is designed to operate at a maximum of 17 below the ambient temperature.

  • Avoid locating the unit in moist areas.

  • Plug the refrigerator into an exclusive, properly installed-grounded wall outlet. Do not under any circum- stances cut or remove the third (ground) prong from
    the power cord. Any questions concerning power and/or grounding should be directed toward a certified electrician.

  • After plugging the refrigerator into a wall outlet, allow the unit to cool down for 2- 3 hours before placing.

PRODUCT OVERVIEW

FUNCTIONS

  • The unit is intended for cooling only.
  • The refrigerator is not suitable for freezing food.
  • We recommend that you set a cooling temperature of 12 °C.
  • The shelves are already positioned on delivery to ensure the most energy-efficient use of the refrigerator. The following positioning of the shelves is recommended:
  • If the ambient temperature is 25 °C and the refrigerator is not filled, it will take about 3.5 hours to lower the temperature of the refrigerator from 25 °C to 12 °C.
  • We recommend that you keep the refrigerator at 12 °C. The energy consumption is 0.444 kWh/24 h. If the set temperature is above 12 °C, the energy consumption will be lower. If the set temperature is under 12 °C, the energy consumption will be higher.

OPERATION

Setting the temperature

  • Your refrigerator has only one control for regulating the temperature. The temperature control is located at the rear of the refrigerator.
  • To control the internal temperature, adjust the control knob according to the ambient temperature or purpose of use. The range of the temperature control is from position “HI” and “LO”.

Usage Notes

  • Position your refrigerator so that the plug is accessible. Keep your refrigerator out of direct sunlight.
  • Do not place next to the heat-generating appliance.
  • Do not place directly on the ground. Provide suitable stand.
  • The refrigerator will have better performance at ambient temperature of 20-25 °C. We suggest the refrigerator be powered off if the ambient temperature is lower than 10 °C.
  • After plugging the appliance, allow the unit to cool down for 2-3 hours before placing beverage into the refrigerator compartment.
  • Ventilation is very important for this kind of thermoelectric refrigerator; The inside PCB will be broken easily if the ventilation is bad; It will also reduce the life of the refrigerator.
  • The refrigerator applies an automatic defrosting system, so there is no need to defrost it manually.
