Preparation Preparation

Installation（ （Figure C） 1.Check that the kitchen unit door is in the correct operating position.

2. Run the mains cable through the unit such that it can be connected to the power supply

after installing the appliance. Remove the cover (6) only if space is restricted. 3.Push the appliance into the kitchen unit leaving a gap of 4mm at the handle side of the appliance. Align the top and bottom front edges of the support brackets (2) such that they are flush with the front edge of the kitchen unit. See detail X 4.Cut sealing strip (1) to the height of the kitchen unit and attach to the handle side of the unit to close the gap between the appliance and the side panel of the kitchen unit (press the strip (a) into the gap. Pull away the protective strip on the plastic profile before insertion. 5.Push the appliance against the side panel of the kitchen unit and secure it at the top and bottom (3). 6.Install the door connecting element (4) in accordance with the handle height and the number of doors. Open the door fully and insert the connecting rod (5) and screw it to the kitchen unit door maintaining distance (d) to the edge of the door (d=the thickness of the panel). Adjust the connecting element so that the handle side of the kitchen unit door does not make contact with the unit body when closed. (Approximately 1mm gap for large appliances), mount the second door connecting element where appropriate. 7.Plug the open hole in the appliance door.

*Level the kitchen cabinet unit with a spirit level and a try square. Level the unit by placing packing material underneath if required.

*A minimum gap of 38mm must be maintained at the back of the appliance for ventilation. *Air inlet A must be at least 200 cm square and air must flow through the panel in the cabinet plinth. *Check that the position of the power socket (1) is correct. AC voltage in the location at which the appliance is to be used must comply with that as shown on the data plate located on the left inside wall of the appliance next to the vegetable bins. The power

(Figure C ) supply must be suitably earthed.

Operation Instructions Cold storage is for short-term food Starting the refrigerator

storage or for daily consumption. Although the temperature in most parts of the cold storage compartment can be regulated between 0 and 10 degrees Centigrade, extended periods of food storage is not recommended. Cold storage should only be used for short-term storage. After connecting to the power supply, turn the temperature controller clockwise from position 0 to any position between 1 and 7 to start the refrigerator. The refrigerator compressor will stop when the temperature controller is at position 0. Adjusting the temperature: The temperature inside the refrigerator is adjusted by turning the temperature controller. Positions 1 to 7 represent different temperatures from the lowest to the highest. Position 1-2 3-4 4-5 6-7 Conditions Summer or ambient temperature between25-35℃ Spring, autumn or ambient temperature between15-25℃ Winter, or ambient temperature between5-15℃ Quick freeze Caution: Some time will be required for the refrigerator to reach the set level when temperature adjustments are made. The length of this period is determined by difference in the existing and set temperatures, the ambient temperature, the frequency with which the door is opened and closed and the amount of food in storage.

2. Pickled food and seasonings

3. Beverages and bottled food

4. Cookies, cooked food and milk

5. Meat and sausages

6. Fruits, vegetables and salads

Cautions for cold storage

• Hot food must be cooled to room temperature before storing in the refrigerator Temperature Controllor Loading the refrigerator with food When the refrigerator is switched on, do not load food until 1~2 hours have passed. Usually, food for cold storage or deep freezing can be loaded when the temperature inside the compartment reaches the set point.

Cold storage compartment

• Dry any water droplets on the food before placing it in the refrigerator.

• It is recommended that food be sealed in suitable storage bags before being placed in the refrigerator; this will prevent moisture in the food from evaporating and prevent vegetables and fruit from withering or altering in flavor.

• Do not store excess quantities or weights of food; food should be stored with spaces in between for better storage results. Never overload shelves, as they may collapse under excessive loads.

• Food to be stored should be sorted according to consumer requirements. Food consumed daily should be placed in the most convenient area, this will minimize opening periods for the door. Do not place food too close to the internal walls. Food holder cleaning Instructions Instructions for food storage *Storage period will be extended if vegetables are placed with their roots towards the cold source. *Leaves of carrots or turnips should be removed before storage.

• Food holders can be taken out for cleaning *Put a wad of tissue on the bottle holder before placing bottles on it so that later cleaning is easier Lamp & Replacement: *Onions, garlic, ginger, water chestnuts and other root vegetables should not be stored in the refrigerator, *Lamp:220-240V, 15W
• Lamp holder: E14 (lamps exceeding 15W must not be used)
• For replacement, unplug to disconnect the power
• Remove the lamp by turning anti-clockwise

as these foods are suitable for long-term storage at normal temperatures. *Ripe squash, melon, papaw, bananas and pineapples should not be stored in the refrigerator. Freezing will accelerate the ripening process.

Defrosting-Cleaning -De-commissioning Defrosting-Cleaning -De-commissioning Defrosting the cold storage compart- Power failure ment Even in summer, food can be stored in the refrigerator for a few hours after a power failure. Water outlet, The cold storage compartment is designed for automatic defrosting. Frost formed on the back wall will melt and flow via the drainpipe to the evaporating container over the compressor on the back of the refrigerator, where the heat generated by the compressor will evaporate the water.

• Don’t put additional food into the refrigerator during a power failure.
• Avoid opening the door during power failures cleaning rod Caution: Always keep the drain over the vegetable and fruit tray clear to ensure the normal flow of defrosted water. Use the rod provided to clear any blockages. Cleaning The refrigerator should be cleaned regularly to prevent the formation of bad odors.
• Disconnect the power before cleaning the refrigerator.
• Do not use a hard brush, steel brush, detergent, gasoline or other solvents, hot water, acid or alkali for cleaning.
• Wipe water drops on the surface of the refrigerator with a soft cloth. (1) Do not use excessive amounts of water for cleaning the refrigerator (2) Use a dry cloth to clean the switch, the lamp and the temperature controller

• If prior notice of a power failure is given, make some ice and put it in a container in the top of the cold storage compartment. Caution: temperature in the refrigerator will rise during a power failure or in the event of technical problems, and the storage period will be reduced. During Vacations
• Remove any food from refrigerator is the vacation is short. Turn the temperature selection knob to the proper position, and make sure that the door of the refrigerator is properly closed.
• If the vacation is long, take out the food from the refrigerator and disconnect the power. When the frost inside melts, clean and dry the compartment. Discarding
