Shelf Temperature control knob Fresh box Decorative block Shelves Crispers Leveling feet Balconies BalconiesINSTALLATION

Position the appliance and allow it to stand for two to three hours before it is turned on for the first 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 firm level surface, and any unevenness of the floor 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 floor covering you should readjust the front feet once the appliance has had time to settle. SPACE REQUIREMENT

• Keep enough space of door open.

• Keep at least 100mm gap at two sides and back.

To do this adjust the two levelling feet at front of the unit. lf the unit is not level,the doors and magnetic seal alignments will not be covered properly.12 USE

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 first 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.

If there is a power failure, do not open the door. Frozen food should not be affected if the failure lasts for less than 12 hours. If the failure is longer, then the food should be checked and either eaten immediately or cooked and then re-frozen.USER CONTROL PANEL

Key Operation A. "FRIDGE" mode This key is workable both in User Defined Mode as well as Super Mode. After entering the temperature control of the fridge compartment, this key flashes. By touching the key consecutively. the temperature would change in a circle of "2°C, 3°C, 4°C, 6°C, 8°C", after which 5-second flashing means the selection of temperature is settled. B. "POWER COOL / Locking / Unlocking" mode By touching this key to enter or exit the "POWER COOL" mode. If enters this mode, the temperature of fridge room will cool down very quickly until it reaches 2°C to satisfy consumer's need. This model will exit in two ways:

• this mode will exit automatically until it keeps running 50 hours.14

• this mode will exit manually by consumer touching this key.

Temperature Control of the Freezer Compartment

Plug on your appliance. The internal temperature is controlled by a sensor. There are 3 settings: SUMMER, NORMAL and WINTER.

The appliance may not operate at the correct temperature if it is in a particularly hot or if you open the door often. Important! Usually we advise the user set the temperature control knob at "NORMAL" or "RECOMMENDED". Set the temperature control knob at "SUMMER" in summer or hot days. If the ambient temperature is very high (above 43°C), consider adjusting it to the dotted line on the left. Set the temperature control knob at "WINTER" in winter or cold days. If the ambient temperature is very low (below 10°C), consider adjusting it to the dotted line on the right.16 Temperature Setting Recommendation Environment temperatureFreezercompartmentFridge compartmentSummerNormalWinterSet on NormalSet on Normal ~ WinterSet on Summer ~ NormalFridge set on 4°CFridge set on 4°CFridge set on 4°C

• Information above give users recommendation of temperature setting.

For energy saving, the coldest set only apply to special need (such as quick-freezing or ice making), and need turn back after special need. Impact on Food Storage

Under recommended setting, the best storage time of fridge is no more than 3 days.

Under recommended setting, the best storage time of freezer is no more than 1 month.

• The best storage time may reduce under other setting.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 defines the height of

• 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 modification of your thermostat, you are

supposed to wait for the stabilization of the temperature

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

• The appliance is rated as a 4 star freezer and can freeze fresh food and store pre-frozen food. When you are buying frozen food, look at the Storage Guidelines on the packaging. You will be able to store each item of frozen food for the period shown against the 4 star rating.

Ensure that your freezing operations are carried out under the most hygienic conditions as freezing alone does not improve the food.

• Never put hot or even warm foodstuffs into the freezer.

Prior to freezing the food, food should always be covered tightly with foil, plastic

lm, placed in plastic bags or stored in airtight containers. This will prevent food from dehydrating and to prevent any strong odors of some foods transferring to milder ones.

To freeze raw meat, wrap in plastic bags or in airtight containers and place on the lowest shelf to avoid cross contamination.

Do not allow raw meat to come into contact with cooked foods. For safety, only store raw meat 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 affect the temperature in the refrigerator. If required, change the thermostat temperature settings.

18STORING FROZEN FOOD

All frozen food you purchase should be placed in the freezer as soon as possible to avoid them from defrosting and spoiling.

All storage recommendations printed on the packaging of frozen food by the manufacturer should always be followed.

• When using the freezer for the first time or after defrosting, set the thermostat knob to the maximum position for at least 2 hours before introducing food to be stored, and then readjust it to the normal position.

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 freezer temperatures lower than necessary. Set the internal temperature within the correct range e.g. adjust the thermostat at middle position -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 freezer full, but not over crowded, 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 freezer before opening the door. Only open the door to put food in or take it out. 19• 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 significantly increases energy use.

The combination of the drawers, baskets and shelves shown in the device description is optimal for efficient energy savings. Changing the combination proposition could alter the efficiency. 20DAILY USE
