STIRLING STR-H221W1 Top Mount Refrigerator and Freezer
Installation
CAUTION! The fridge is heavy–transport it with care! To avoid back or other injury, we recommend you ask someone for help or use a mechanical aid when moving it.

Getting it ready for use
Before you start installing your new top mount refrigerator, wipe the interior surfaces and accessories with a well wrung out cloth moistened with lukewarm water with a little baking soda added. This will remove any dust from transit and storage and help remove the typical smell of a brand new product. Dry thoroughly. -
Need the doors reversed?
Your new top mount refrigerator has the capability of the doors opening from the right or left side. If your set-up requires reversal of the door swing, please follow the instructions on pages 1921 of the supplied manual. -
Where to install
The fridge is designed for freestanding use. The floor must be strong, sturdy and level–adjust the levelling feet, if necessary. Avoid areas where the fridge would be exposed to direct sunlight, heat, extreme cold ambient temperatures or excessive moisture and high humidity. Installing it in the coolest area of the room will save energy consumption and running costs. Allow at least 10 cm clear space at the back and 5 cm at the sides so air can circulate freely around the fridge. For comprehensive installation instructions, please consult the manual.
Setting up
Settling
Before plugging in your new fridge, let it stand upright 4 for at least 4
hours to allow the refrigerant gases to settle into the compressor.
Power connection
Plug in the fridge and secure the power supply cord 5 behind the unit, making
sure the plug is accessible after installation.
First use: cool down
When first starting up, and after a period out of use, 6 allow the unit to
cool down on the coldest settings (in both compartments) for at least 23
hours before placing perishable food in the fridge.
Nearly done! Just a bit more on the other side of this page…
Temperature regulation
This appliance has two temperature controls, one in the freezer and one in the fridge compartment, so you can adjust the temperature separately according to the requirements of the foods stored in each compartment. The controls are located on the interior back walls of the fridge and freezer compartments.
Turn the control clockwise towards COLDEST to lower the temperature and anticlockwise towards COLD to increase the temperature in the compartment. A middle setting on COLDER should be appropriate for normal usage.
Inside the fridge and freezer
The freezer compartment is equipped with a glass shelf and door balcony
for convenient access and organised storage. It is suitable for freezing
domestic quantities of fresh food and long-term storage (up to three months)
of frozen food.
The fridge compartment is suitable for short-term storage of all your fresh food. The walls of the fridge are equipped with a series of runners so that you can position the glass shelves to suit your individual storage requirements.
The door balconies in the fridge compartment are suitable for storage of food and drink bottles, cans and jars. They may be placed at different heights: gradually pull a balcony up until it is free, then reposition it as required.
The easy-to-pull-out crisper drawer is covered with a glass shelf to help you keep your fruit and vegetables fresh.
