Ventilation

100 mm min 20 mm

If the refrigerator is installed with its side against a wall, ensure a minimum clearance of 60 mm to ensure that the door can open through 90°.

To remove the fresh-storage compartment, the bottle rack must be taken out first.

The heated air around the rear of the unit must be able to circulate freely. Therefore, ensure that the air circulation behind the unit is not obstructed.

Caution: Ensure at all times that the rear ventilation openings around the top cover are not obstructed.

Reversible door

If required, the door may be reversed, i.e. from right-hinged (default installation) to left-hinged.

To avoid the risk of personal injury or damage to the unit, two people are needed to reverse the door.

Warning: Always disconnect the unit from the mains before any maintenance or repair work is carried out.

Before you get started, please note the following:

● Always ensure that the correct number of washers is used on all hinge bolts and screws.
- So that the doors can close tightly against the frame, take the utmost care that they are properly aligned during re-assembly.

- Open the refrigerator door.

- Remove the four covers C from the housing and inside of the door

- Replace the covers and their extensions, turned through 180^ , on the opposite side.

- Unscrew the hinge bolt on the inside of the door in the area C/6.

Caution: Support the door.

- Take off the refrigerator door.

• Take out the fixing screws and remove the upper bracket 6. Note the small plastic plate underneath the bracket.
• Turn the bracket 6 including the small plastic plate through 180^ and replace it on the other side of the refrigerator, using the two screw holes adjacent to each other.

- Remove the lower panel 1.

• Unscrew the hinge bolt 2, together with the washers, from the bracket 7, and fit it into the corresponding opening on the opposite side of the bracket 7.
• Place the refrigerator door onto the hinge bolt 2 on holding bracket 7.

Caution: Support the door.

- Re-insert the hinge bolt of the bracket 6 into the refrigerator door.

- Fit the four covers C over the bracket and the openings.

• Take out the cover 10 from the lower panel 1 and replace it on the opposite side.
• Replace the panel 1 on the appliance.
• Remove the screw covering caps a and the sealing plugs b.
• Take out the screws holding the door handle. Fit the handle on the opposite side, using the fixing screws to secure it. Push the sealing plugs (provided) into the now empty openings in the door and replace the covering caps on the screw heads.

If the unit has been tilted to more than 30^ , wait for about 4 hours before re-connecting it to the mains.

Temperature control

The unit is re-activated by connecting it to the mains. It is only switched off completely when the plug is removed from the wall socket.

The temperature in the refrigerator cabinet can be adjusted by setting the temperature control. Turning the control clockwise will decrease the temperature, while turning it anti-clockwise will increase it.

The medium settings are usually most suitable for home use.

We recommend using a thermometer to check the actual temperature inside the cabinet and make adjustments as necessary.

Following a power interruption, or if the unit has been switched off on purpose, it may take 3 to 5 minutes before it switches on again.

In position ‘0’, the cooling function is switched off, though the appliance is still connected to the mains.

Interior lighting

Caution: do not remove the cover of the interior LED light. If there should be any malfunction, please contact the customer service for assistance.

Storing food

• The temperatures inside the refrigerator cabinet depends mainly on the ambient temperature, the temperature control setting and the amount of food stored.
• Different areas of the refrigerator cabinet are affected differently by the cooling effect. The warmest area is around the door in the higher part of the cabinet, the coldest around the rear wall and in the lower part of the cabinet.

- The food should therefore be stored as follows:

- On main cabinet shelves (from top to bottom): bakery items, ready meals, dairy products, meat,

fish and cold meats/sausages.

• In the vegetable compartment: vegetables, salad and fruit.
• In the door (from top to bottom): butter, cheese, eggs, tubes (eg mustard), small bottles, large bottles, milk and fruit-juice tetra-packs.
• Initially, the temperature control should be set to position 4. If the cooling effect is too strong, lower it to position 1-3; if it is insufficient, raise it to 5-7.

If you notice frost on the rear wall, the most likely cause is that the door has been left open for too long, or that warm food has been placed inside the refrigerator or that the temperature control has been set too high.

• Liquid or strong-smelling food, or food which is likely to absorb strong odours (e.g. cheese, fish, butter), should be stored separately or in hermetically sealed containers.
• Warm food should be left to cool down to room temperature before being placed in the refrigerator.
• Always ensure that the door is properly closed and that the seal is not obstructed by food stored inside the cabinet or door.

De-frosting and cleaning

• Always remove the plug from the wall socket before cleaning.

• Do not pour water over or inside the unit.

• For frequent cleaning we recommend the use of warm water with some mild detergent. To prevent any unpleasant odour within the refrigerator, it should be cleaned about once a month.

• Any accessories should be cleaned separately with soapy water. Do not put them in a dishwasher.
• Do not use abrasives or harsh cleaning solutions or any cleaning agents that contain alcohol.
• After cleaning, thoroughly clean all surfaces with fresh water before wiping them completely dry. When re-inserting the plug into the wall socket ensure that you have dry hands.
• To save energy and to ensure optimum performance, the condenser (at the rear) as well as the compressor should be cleaned at least twice a year with a broom or a vacuum cleaner.

- Take care not to remove or damage the rating plate inside the cabinet during cleaning.

Defrosting the refrigerator cabinet :

The integral vapouriser is sealed in foam in the rear wall; you may therefore notice a build-up of frost around the rear area. This layer of frost will start melting when the compressor is not working. Through a system of hoses, the melt-water drains into the collection tray below the compressor, where it will be absorbed into the surrounding air. The unit does not therefore require de-frosting, but only proper cleaning instead.

- To enable the melt-water to drain freely, always ensure that the channel and discharge opening in the cabinet are free of any blockage.

Trouble-shooting

Certain typical sounds can be heard when the appliance is switched on. These sounds are:

- caused by the electrical motor within the compressor assembly; during compressor start-up the sound level will be slightly higher for a limited period of time.

- caused by the cooling agent flowing through the circuit.

The following table lists possible malfunctions and their probable causes and solutions. In the event of operational problems, check first whether a solution can be found using this table. If the problem persists, disconnect the appliance from the mains power and contact our Customer Service Department.

Problem Possible cause and solution
The appliance is not working at all.	- There is a power failure- The main fuse has blown.- The temperature control is set to ‘0’.- The fuse in the wall socket (if applicable) has blown. This can be checked by connecting another electrical device to the socket and checking for function.
The normal operating sound changes or becomes louder.	- Check for proper positioning (uneven floor?).- Are any adjacent objects affected by the running of the cooling unit (i.e. causing them to vibrate?)- Are there any objects on top of the unit which might be vibrating?
Water is collecting on the bottom of the unit.	The melt-water drain system is blocked. Remove the blockage and clean the system.

Transporting the appliance

To prevent damage to the unit during transport, ensure that all accessories and components inside and around the appliance are securely fastened.

The unit must only be transported in its vertical position; do not tilt any more than 30°.

Once the unit has been positioned, wait for about 30 minutes before it is connected to the mains.

If the unit has been tilted more than 30^ during transport, allow it to stand in an upright position for at least 4 hours before it is connected to the mains.

Disposal

This appliance has been manufactured from recyclable materials. After removing the plug from the wall socket, the unit should be rendered unusable by cutting off the power cord before disposing of it through special waste collection points in accordance with local

regulations. The refrigerant and the chemical agent in the insulation foam must be disposed of through a competent agency. Take special care not to damage the cooling circuit before the unit is handed over for such disposal.
