Section 4. Operating the Appliance

4.1. 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. 4.2. Temperature Control The temperature selector knob is located on the lamp unit inside the refrigerator (see Description of the Appliance on page 2). · · · ·

Setting “0”: Unit Off

Setting “1”: Unit On - Warmest Temperature Setting “3 or 4” : Normal Operation (adequate for most situations) Setting “7 ”: Coldest Temperature

During high ambient temperatures e.g. on hot summer days, it may be necessary to set the thermostat to the coldest setting ( the "7" ). This may cause the compressor to run continuously in order to maintain a low temperature in the cabinet. 4.3. Storing & Freezing Food in the Freezer This appliance has a four star freezer that is suitable for the long-term storage of frozen food items. It can also be used for freezing and storing fresh food items.

4.4. 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. 4.5. 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 short shelf-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. 4.6. 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. 5.1. 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. 5.2. 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. 5.3. 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. 5.4. When the appliance is not in use When the appliance is not in use for long periods, remove the contents, disconnect from the electricity supply and clean the appliance, leaving the door ajar until you wish to use the appliance again. 5.5.

Section 6. Energy Saving

For better energy saving we suggest : Installing tge appliance away from heat sources and not exposed to direct sunlight and in a well ventilated roo. Avoid putting hot food into the refrigerator to avoid increasing the internal temperature and therefore causing continuos functionaliting of the compressor. Do not excessively stuff foods so as to ensure proper air circulation. Defrost the appliance in case there is ice to facilitate the transfer of cold. In case of absence of electrical energy, it is advisable to keep the refrigerator door closed. Open or keep the doors of the appliance open as little as possible Avoid adjusting the setting to temperatures too cold. Remeve dust present on the rear of the appliance

Scrapping old Appliance

This appliance is marked according to the European directive 2012/19/EU on Waste

Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE). WEEE contains both polluting substances (which can cause negative consequences for the environment) and basic components (which can be re-used). It is important to have WEEE subjected to specific treatments, in order to remove and dispose properly all pollutants, and recover and recycle all materials. Individuals can play an important role in ensuring that WEEE does not become an environmental issue; it is essential to follow some basic rules: -WEEE should not be treated as household waste; -WEEE should be handed over to the relevant collection points managed by the municipality or by registered companies. In many countries, for large WEEE, home collection could be present. In many countries, when you buy a new appliance, the old one may be returned to the retailer who has to collect it free of charge on a one-to-one basis, as long as the equipment is of equivalent type and has the same functions as the supplied equipment.

By placing the mark on this product, we are confirming compliance to all relevant European safety, health and environmental requirements which are applicable in legislation for this product. 30
