Frequently Asked Questions - ORF-160 A+ Orima

How do I adjust the temperature in my Orima ORF-160 A+ refrigerator?

Use the thermostat dial inside the fridge compartment. Turn it to a higher number for colder temperatures. Usually, setting 3-4 is recommended for normal use.

The freezer requires manual defrosting. When ice builds up, turn off the fridge, remove food, and let ice melt naturally. Do not use sharp tools to scrape ice.

What should I do if the refrigerator is not cooling properly?

Check if the thermostat is set correctly, ensure the door is closing properly, and clean the condenser coils at the back. Also verify that the ventilation grille is not blocked.

Unplug the appliance, remove shelves and drawers, and wash with a mild detergent solution. Wipe the interior with a damp cloth and dry thoroughly before restarting.

What is the recommended temperature setting for the fridge?

The ideal fridge temperature is between 2°C and 8°C. Adjust the thermostat to maintain around 4°C for optimal food preservation.

Can I use an extension cord with my refrigerator?

It is not recommended. Plug the refrigerator directly into a properly earthed wall outlet. If an extension must be used, ensure it is rated for the appliance's power.

How much does the ORF-160 A+ weigh?

The approximate net weight is 32 kg. Make sure you have help when moving it and place it on a sturdy, level surface.

Transportation and Handing

When transporting, hold the base and lift the refrigerator carefully with the tilted angle no more than 45 degree. Never hold the door handle as support. Never position it upside down nor horizontal.

Maneuver the appliance by tilting it backward until it is on the rear rollers.

Installation

1. Do not site in a location which is likely to drop below 5 degrees centigrade, i.e. an unheated garage or shed in winter.
2. Install the refrigerator on flat, firm ground to prevent vibration and noise.
3. Choose a dry and well-ventilated location. A space of no less than 10cm must be left around the refrigerator.
4. Choose a location where there is no heat source. Keep the refrigerator away from direct sunlight, radiators, heaters and oven etc.
5. Adjust the front feet to achieve vertical alignment.
6. Allow to stand for 2-3 hours after moving before plugging in to mains.

Before using

1. Clean all parts of the refrigerator with lukewarm water containing a little mild detergent and wipe dry.
   Notes: Do not wet electric parts.
2. Turn the thermostat knob to the "3" position and turn on electricity. The compressor and the light inside the refrigerator will begin to work.
3. Close the door and leave for 30 minutes. If the temperature in the freezer compartment has decreased noticeably the refrigerator is working normally.

Temperature Control

1. The temperature in the refrigerator and freezer compartment is controlled by the temperature controller installed on the inside wall of the refrigerator compartment.
   We strongly recommend you use a freezer thermostat to check that the temperature is below -18 centigrade before loading any food. This can take 2 - 3 hours.

2. The marks on the knob are the temperature grades, NOT the exact degrees of temperature. '0' is 'OFF' and "7" represents the lowest temperature.

3. Please start with the knob set to position "3". Use a suitable thermometer to check the temperature after two hours. The refrigerator temperature should be set between +2°C and +5° and the freezer will vary between -18 and -25 degrees centigrade over a typical cycle. To reduce the refrigerator temperature turns the knob towards '7' and check after one hour.

Quick Freezing

• Quick freezing allows moisture inside foodstuffs to form fine ice-crystals which prevent the cell membrane from being damaged and the cytoplasm being lost when unfreezing, thus the original freshness and nutrition constituent of foodstuffs can be retained.
• Fresh meal and fish to be stored for long time must be done by quick freezing.
• To quick freeze turn the temperature knob to setting "7" before adding food. NOTE; the maximum allowable capacity is 3KG at a time.

After quick freezing, turn the knob back to the original position (Normally time for quick freezing shall not exceeds 4 hours).

Tips and Hints

Fresh foods such as fish and meat can be frozen to maintain freshness, and keep the nutrients in the food.

Wrap food to be frozen or place it in an airtight container.

Do not allow already frozen food into direct contact with food to be frozen.

Ready frozen food should be placed it in freezer as soon as possible.

Storage of frozen food

When using the freezer for the first time or after defrosting, turn the thermostat knob to '7' for 2 hours before introducing the food. Reset to

normal position 2 hours after introducing food.

Wrap food to be frozen or place it in an airtight container.

Do not allow already frozen food into direct contact with food to be frozen.

Ready frozen food should be placed it in freezer as soon as possible.

Storage of fresh food

Food should always be covered tightly with foil, wrapped in film, placed in an airtight bag or container. This will prevent it from dehydrating and prevent strong smells contaminating other food.

Do not allow raw meat to come into contact with cooked foods.

Fruit and vegetables should be stored in the bottom box with the glass cover in place.

Placement of Food

Space should be left between food items to allow free movement of cold air.

Cool hot food down to the room temperature before storing.

Defrosting

When the inner surfaces of the freezer are covered with a layer of frost about 4 mm thick the electricity consumption will increase and the effect of refrigeration reduce. It is essential to defrost.

1. Remove the mains plug, open the doors and remove all food and shelves. Frozen foods needs to be well insulated using newspaper or blankets.
2. Either let the temperature rise naturally till frost melts or a container of warm water can be place inside to speed up the process.
3. Wipe away all ice and water before washing with a cloth dampened with water and a mild detergent.
4. Remember to clear the defrost drain situated at the back.
5. Wipe dry before plugging in to the mains.

6.

Notes: Do not use pointed or sharp edged metal tools. It is possible to

puncture the sealed gas refrigeration system.

Never use an electric heating appliance to speed the process.

Replacing the light bulb

Should the light fail, switch off at the socket outlet and pull out the mains plug. Remove the lamp guard and check that the bulb is fully screwed in. Replace the plug and switch on. If the light still fails, obtain a replacement E14 screw-cap type 230 volt 15 Watt (Max) Refrigerator bulb from your local electrical sore and then fit it. Carefully dispose of the burnt-out light bulb immediately.

Electrical Safety

THIS APPLIANCE MUST BE PLUGGED INTO AN EARTHED SOCKET.

Before switching on, make sure that the voltage of your electricity supply is the same as that indicated on the rating plate. This product is designed to operate on 220 – 240V AC; 50Hz.

Connection to any other power source may damage the unit.

This product may be fitted with a non-rewireable plug. If it is necessary to change the fuse in the plug, the fuse cover must be refitted. If the fuse cover becomes lost or damaged, the plug

must not be used until a suitable replacement obtained.

If the plug has to be changed because it is not suitable for your socket, or becomes damaged in any way, it should be cut off and an appropriate plug fitted following the wiring instructions below. This should be carried out by a qualified electrician. The plug removed must be disposed of safely, as insertion into a 13 Amp socket is likely to cause an electrical hazard.

If a 13Amp (BS1363) plug is used, a 13Amp (BS1362) fuse must be fitted, or if any other type of plug is used, a 13Amp fuse must be fitted, either in the plug or adaptor, or on the Distribution Board.
