WHAT IS FROST FREE REFRIGERATION?

A heating element periodically melts the ice on the freezer coils. The melted ice is channelled to a collection area where it is evaporated off by the heat generated during the freezing process. The heating does just enough to free the ice from the freezer coils and does not adversely affect the contents of the refrigerator. Sensors prevent degradation of the foodstuff.

Controlling the temperature

We recommend that when you start your refrigerator for the first time, the temperature for the refrigerator is set to 4^ C and the freezer to -18^ C. Caution! When you set a temperature, you set an average temperature for the whole refrigerator cabinet. Temperatures inside each compartment may vary from the temperature values displayed on the panel, depending on how much food you store and where you place it. Ambient temperature may also affect the actual temperature inside the appliance.

1. Fridge Press "Fridge" to set fridge temperature between 2°C and 8°C as needed, and control panel will display corresponding values on the display
2. Freezer. Press "Freezer" to set freezer temperature between -14^ and -24^ as needed, and the control panel will display corresponding value on the display

3. Super Freeze (press 3 seconds)

Super Freeze will quickly lower the temperature within the freezer so food will freeze vitamins and nutrients of fresh food and keep food fresh longer.

• In case of the maximum amount of food to be frozen, please wait about 24 h.
• Super freeze automatically switches off after 26 hours and the freezer temperature setting displays -25^ .
• When super freeze function on you can switch off super freeze function by pressing Freezer button for 3 seconds and the freezer temperature setting will revert back to the previous setting.

Food Storage Tips

REFRIGERATOR COMPARTMENT

Dairy and multi-purpose Guard

• Store fatty foods, like butter and cheese.
• Store small, packed foods, like milk, yogurt and beverages.

Refrigerator compartment: 1°C to 5°C

This is the area where the food should be stored to be kept cold/chilled:

• Note: raw and uncooked foods should always be wrapped
  • pre-cooked chilled foods
• pre-cooked meats
• prepared salads, desserts, homemade products, and leftovers

Vegetable Drawer/Crisper

• This is the part of the refrigerator has higher humidity.
• Vegetables, fruit, fresh salads should be stored in this compartment.

Wire Wine Rack

- For storing bottled liquids. Always ensure lids are air tight and sealed properly.

Notes:

• Always place raw meat, fish and poultry on the lowest shelf of the refrigerator.
- Ensure that food is well-wrapped or covered before it is stored. This will prevent food from dehydrating, deteriorating in colour or losing flavour and will help maintain freshness. It will also prevent cross-flavouring.

FREEZER COMPARTMENT

Above freezer shelf

Below freezer shelf

• Store food in small portions
• Seal food in containers with lids, in plastic wrap or in plastic bags to prevent drying and the mingling of odors.

Wrapping food

• Pack the food in suitably sized portions for your household.
• Vegetable and fruit portions should be no heavier than 1 kg, while meat portions can be up to 2.5 kg.
• Smaller portions freeze through more quickly and the quality is thereby maintained better when defrosting and preparing the food.
• It is important to seal food in airtight bags or containers before freezing to prevent it from losing favor or dehydrating.
• Wrap the food, press out any air and seal it airtight.

Suitable wrapping materials:

- Plastic bags, cling-film, aluminium foil and freezer containers. These items are available from any dealer.

Unsuitable wrapping materials:

- Wrapping paper, greaseproof paper, cellophane, bin bags or used carrier bags.

Suitable sealing materials:

• Rubber bands, plastic clips, string, freezer tape or similar.
• Plastic film and bags may be heat-sealed using a special sealing iron or press.

Before placing a package in the freezer, it should be clearly labelled with the contents and date of freezing.

Cleaning & Maintenance

DAILY CLEANING

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 discolour 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

The Dairy guards, and shelves can be removed and cleaned separately. However, we don't recommend cleaning the transparent plastic parts in a dishwasher because the high temperatures can dull the plastic over time.

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 excessive ice build-up

DRAIN HOLE AND CLEANING TOOL

There is a small drain hole at the back of the refrigerator cabinet. There is also a small cleaning tool in the hole. Use the tool to clear the drain hole when necessary. Do not allow foodstuff to clog this hole

PERIODIC MAINTENANCE

From time to time, it may be necessary to perform more extensive cleaning to keep your refrigerator in top condition and to maintain energy efficiency.

Before performing any of these maintenance steps, switch off your refrigerator and remove the plug from the mains socket. Allow the freezer section to defrost thoroughly.

EVAPORATOR TRAY

At the other side of the drain hole in the refrigerator cabinet, there is a small plastic tray that sits on top of the compressor. This should be removed and cleaned thoroughly from time to time to prevent unpleasant odours.

Take care when moving the refrigerator not to damage the cooling matrix or tilt the appliance more than 45 degrees.

After maintenance, replace any shelves etc and reconnect the appliance to the mains supply.

Troubleshooting

1. If the refrigerator does not run:

Check the supply voltage is available at the socket and check that the power plug is correctly connected.

2. If the refrigerator does not become cold enough:

a. is the thermostat is set too low? (setting 1 is warmest setting 7 is coldest)
b. is there enough space around the refrigerator?
c. is the door is opened too frequently or not closed properly? (check seals).
d. is there direct sun shine on the appliance or are there heat sources nearby?
e. is there too much food inside the compartment?
f. is there dust and debris built up on cooling matrix or compressor?

3. Food is freezing or too cold in refrigerator compartment:

a. There is too little food in the refrigerator
b. Thermostat is set too high

4. If the refrigerator operates noisily:

a. Check that the appliance is installed on a stable, level floor. Adjust the feet if necessary. The refrigerator is too near the wall
b. The food stored in the refrigerator is not touching - particularly applies to bottles. The refrigerator creates very slight vibrations, which can be amplified greatly with touching bottles!

Note:

During high relative humidity environment, condensation may occur on the surface of the refrigerator. This is not a malfunction. Simply clean the surface of condensation.

If the refrigerator is not working properly after all these checks, contact the service center without further delay.
