Section 2. Installation
•
IMPORTANT! This appliance must be left to stand in an upright positionfor at
least 4 hours before being switched on for the first time.
•
This appliance has been designed for Domestic Use Only.
•
Remove all packaging and securing tape from the appliance.
•
Wash the interior of the appliance with luke warm water containing a small
amount of bicarbonate soda (5ml to 0.5 litres of water).
•
Position the appliance in a dry atmosphere and out of direct sunlight.
•
Do not position next to a cooker or other sources of heat, i.e. radiator.
•
This appliance should not be sited in a cold atmosphere, i.e.garage or shed.
Doing so may cause the freezer unit to underfreeze.
•
If positioned next to another fridge or freezer, leave a minimum gap of 2cm
between the appliances in order to avoid condensation.
•
A clearance of 50mm should be left above the appliance. If this cannot be
achieved you should ensure a clearance of 25mm is maintained on each side

Section 3. Operating the Appliance
3.1 Switching on the Appliance
•
Allow the appliance to stand upright for a minimum of 4 hours before you
switch it on.
•
Plug in the appliance and switch on at the mains supply.
•
Set the thermostat control to the required setting as detailed in the
Temperature Control section (3.2.).
•
Leave the appliance for approximately 4 hours for the correct temperature to
be reached.
3.1 Temperature Control
The temperature selector knob is located on the lamp unit inside the refrigerator.
•
Setting "0": Unit Off
•
Setting "MIN": Unit On- Warmest Temperature
Setting "NORMAL": Normal Operation (adequate for most situations)
•
•
Setting "MAX": Coldest Temperature
Important!
During high ambient temperatures e.g. on hot summer days, it may be necessary to
set the thermostat to the coldest setting .This may cause the compressor to run
continuously in order to maintain a low temperature in the cabinet.
3.3 Normal Operating Sounds
You may hear faint gurgling or bubbling sounds when the refrigerant is pumped to
the cooling system and through the coils or tubing at the rear of the appliance.
When the compressor is in operation you may hear a slight whirring sound or
pulsating noise. The thermostat controls the operation of the compressor, and you
may hear a slight click as it cycles in and out.
3.4 Energy Saving Advice
•
Do not install the appliance close to sourcesof heat, such as a cooker,
dishwasher or radiator.
•
Locate the appliance in a cool well-ventilated room and make sure that the
air vents are clear
•
Try to avoid keeping the doors open for a long time, warm air will enter the
cabinet and may cause a build-up of ice as well as affecting the energy
consumption. Ensure there are no obstructions preventing the doors from
closing properly
•
Ensure that the door seals are clean and there are no tears or splits.
• Keep the most perishable foods, (those with a shortshelf-life, such as cooked
meats), in the coldest part of the fridge. The Salad Crisper Box is
the warmest part of your fridge and should be used for vegetables, salads and fruits
etc. (see Description of Appliance on Page 2)
•
Do not overload the fridge: the cooling air that circulates to keep the fridge
cold gets blocked and pockets of warm air form.
•
Do not put hot food into the fridge or freezer? let it cool down first.
3.5 In the Event of a Power Failure
If there is a power failure, keep the doors closed. When the power has been
restored the appliance will start to operate but it may take some time to achieve
the pre-set operating temperature. Check the condition of your stored food items
and liquids.
Section 5. Maintenance
Before any maintenance or cleaning work is carried out, DISCONNECT the
appliance from the ELECTRICITY supply.
4.1 Internal Cleaning
Clean the interior and accessories with warm water and bicarbonate of soda (5ml to
0.5 litre of water). Rinse and dry thoroughly. Do not use detergents, abrasive
powders, highly perfumed cleaning products, wax polishes or cleaning products
containing bleach or alcohol.
4.2 External Cleaning
Wash the outer cabinet with warm soapy water. Do NOT use abrasive products.
There may be sharp edges on the underside of the product, so care should be taken
when cleaning. Once or twice a year dust the rear of the appliance and the
compressor at the back of the appliance, with a brush or vacuum cleaner, as an
accumulation of dust will affect the performance of the appliance and cause
increased energy consumption.
4.3 Defrosting
The fridge compartment will automatically defrost itself. However, you will need to
defrost the freezer periodically. When ice build up in the freezerexceeds 3-5mm,
empty the contents and switch off the appliance, leave the door open and allow
the ice to melt. Place the frozen foods items in a cool-bag or wrap them in thick
newspaper. Do not use sharp objects to scrape the ice away. Clean and
dry the interior, close the door and turn on the power to the appliance. When the
power has been restored the
appliance will start to operate but it may take some time to achieve the pre-set
operating temperature.
