STIRLING STR-H158W 158L Bar Fridge User Guide
Let’s get your new 158L bar fridge ready to use!
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.
1. Getting it ready for use
Before you start installing the fridge, 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.
2. 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 10cm clear space at the back and sides so air can circulate freely
around the fridge. For comprehensive installation instructions, please consult
the manual.
Connection
3. Settling
Before plugging in your new bar fridge, let it stand upright for at least 4
hours to allow the refrigerant gases to settle into the compressor.
4. Power connection
Plug in the fridge and secure the power supply cord behind the unit, making
sure the plug is accessible after installation.
5. Cool down
When first starting up, and after a period out of use, allow the unit to cool
down on the coldest setting (5) for at least 4 hours before placing perishable
food in the fridge.

Thermostat control
6. Location
The temperature control and defrost button 6 are located on the upper right
hand side of the cabinet. The higher the number on the dial, the colder the
temperature.
7. First use
The first time you turn the fridge on, set the control to the coldest position
(5). After approximately 4 hours, adjust it to the setting that best suits
your needs a middle setting should be appropriate in most cases.
8. Switching off
To turn the fridge off, first turn the thermostat control to the minimum
position (0), which will cut off power to the compressor, then disconnect the
power supply cord from the wall outlet in order to shut off the power to the
unit.
The bar fridge interior
9. The refrigerator compartment is suitable for short-term storage of fresh food. The walls of the fridge are equipped with a series of runners so you can position the glass shelves to suit your storage needs.
10. The door balconies are suitable for storage of food and drink bottles, cans and jars.
11. The chiller compartment is designed for short-term storage of some commercially frozen foods, keeping them at a temperature of around -6°C. This storage area is not a true freezer; it works best when the food is already frozen.
12. The drip tray under the chiller compartment is designed to catch melting ice during defrosting. The defrost water will eventually evaporate.
13. The easy-to-pull-out crisper drawer is covered with a glass shelf for practical fruit and vegetable storage.
