NOTE: The appliance design is subject to change without prior notice. Installation

• Position the appliance and allow it to stand for two to three hours before it is turned on for the rst time to allow the system to settle. Do not position next to any heat source e.g. cooker, boiler or in direct sunlight etc.

• Allow at least 10cm of space at the top and 10 cm of space on both sides of the appliance and between the back of the appliance and the wall for adequate air circulation. The appliance is not designed for recessed installation (“building in”).

• Install on a good rm level surface, and any unevenness of the oor should be corrected prior to installation, slight unevenness can be overcome by adjusting the front feet. NOTE: If the appliance is positioned on a carpet, soft oor covering you should readjust the front feet once the appliance has had time to settle.

• This appliance is designed to operate in ambient temperature between 16°C and 38°C. If these temperatures are exceeded, i.e. colder or warmer, the appliance will not operate correctly. If the ambient temperatures are exceeded for long periods, the temperature in the freezer section will rise above -18°C and food spoilage may occur.

• Remove all packaging materials from the appliance. Wash the inside of the cabinet with lukewarm water and bicarbonate of soda (5ml to 0.5 liter of water). Dry the appliance thoroughly.

• When you use the freezer for the rst time or after defrosting, set the thermostat control to the maximum position for at least 2 hours before introducing food to be stored, and then readjust to the normal position.

SETTING THE THERMOSTAT KNOB

The refrigerator is controlled with a thermostat knob located inside the fridge, towards the upper right-hand corner. Turn the knob from the STOP (OFF) position towards the higher numbers for colder temperatures. The knob can be adjusted from setting 1 to 7. Higher settings on the knob (higher numbers) mean lower temperatures (colder) in all compartments of the appliance. Changes of the ambient temperature aect temperature in the interior of the appliance so choose a correct setting of the temperature control knob, depending on your ambient conditions. In the STOP (OFF) position the appliance does not operate (the cooling system is switched o), but power supply is not interrupted. Set the thermostat knob to a normal position to achieve -18°C in the freezer compartment. We suggest to set the selector to “4.5” position in normal use. Thermostat control dial

GBPlease Note: If the appliance is switched o you must wait at least 5 minutes before restarting the appliance or re-inserting the plug into the wall outlet. This is to allow the protection device in the compressor to reset. If the compressor fails to start correctly, remove the plug and wait for 5 minutes before you try again then the compressor should restart normally. The storage temperature may be aected by: – The room temperature – How often the door is opened – How much food is stored – Position of the appliance When you set the correct temperature, all these factors mentioned above shall be taken into account. TEMPERATURE INDICATE In order to help you get the correct adjustment of your device, it is equipped with a temperature gauge placed in the coldest area. For the proper storage of food in your refrigerator and in particular in the coldest area, make sure that “OK” appears in the temperature indicator. The symbol on the left side indicates the location of the coldest area of your refrigerator. It denes the height of this area. If “OK” is not displayed, the average temperature in this area will be very high. You ought to adjust the thermostat to a colder setting. For every modication of your thermostat, you are supposed to wait for the stabilization of the temperature inside the unit before proceeding, if necessary, to a new setting. Do change the position of the thermostat gradually and wait at least 12 hours before re-checking. NOTE: after charging the device for fresh food or after repeated or prolonged door openings, it is normal that the inscription “OK” does not appear in the temperature indicator. Wait at least 12 hours before readjusting the thermostat.

Do not allow raw meat to come into contact with cooked foods. For safety,only store raw meat in the fridge compartment for two or three days.Fruit and vegetables should be thoroughly cleaned and placed in the crisper. Milk and other liquids should be sealed with lids and placed in the bottle shelf in the door. NOTE: The ambient temperature of the freshly stored food and how often the door is opened aect the temperature in the refrigerator.If required,change the temperature setting. ENERGY-SAVING TIPS Install the fridge or freezer in a cool place out of direct sunlight and away from cookers, heaters, dishwashers or any hot air emitting items. Do not set the fridge and freezer temperatures lower than necessary. Set the internal temperature within the correct range e.g. adjust the thermostat at middle position for 4°C in the fridge compartment and -18°C in the freezer respectively. Let pre-cooked foods cool down before placing them in the fridge or freezer. This will prevent the internal temperature of the fridge from rising. Keep your fridge full, but not over crowded, this helps reduce “cold” air loss. Meanwhile, avoid overloading the fridge or freezer. Try to leave about 20% free space for air circulation. To prevent cold air escaping, limit the frequency of opening door. When retuning from shopping, sort foods to be kept in your fridge before opening the door. Only open the door to put food in or take it out. Make sure the door seal is clean and in good condition. It should hold a piece of paper tightly in place when shut. Defrost regularly or when ice is more than 5mm thick. Thick ice covering the inner sides signicantly increases energy use. The combination of the drawers, baskets and shelves shown in the device description is optimal for ecient energy savings. Changing the combination proposition could alter the eciency.

GBMaintenance FRIDGE DEFROSTING The fridge defrosting process is carried out automatically every time the compressor stops. The defrost water is automatically routed to the drain port and into a tray placed on the top of the compressor to the rear of the appliance from which it evaporates. Make sure the drain port on the fridge at the rear of the appliance is kept clear.

NOISE FROM YOUR APPLIANCE

You may notice some rather unusual noises. The noises are caused by circulation of refrigerant in the cooling system. It has become more pronounced since the introduction of CFC free gases. This is not a fault and will not aect the performance of your fridge.

PROLONGED OFF PERIODS

If the appliance is not in use for a long period of time, proceed as follows:

1. Disconnect from the mains supply.

2. Clean and dry the inside (see ‘Cleaning and maintenance’).

3. Leave the door open to prevent any unpleasant smells from

building up while the appliance is not in use.

Do clean and defrost your appliance regularly. Do check contents of the compartments every so often. Do store commercially prepared food in accordance with the instructions given on the packets.

Do Not store poisonous or any dangerous substances in your freezer. It is designed for the freezing of edible foodstus only. Do Not consume food which has been frozen for an excessive length of time. Do Not leave the door open for long periods, as this will make the appliance more costly to run and cause excessive ice formation. Do Not use sharp objects such as knives to remove the ice from the appliance. Only use a plastic scraper. Do Not put hot food into the appliance. Let it cool down to room temperature. Do Not put liquid-lled bottles or sealed cans containing carbonated liquids into the freezer as they may burst. Do Not give children ice-cream and water ices direct from the freezer as the low temperature may cause ‘freezer burns’ on the lips.
