Variable temperature Separate food modes allow you to adjust the temperature for optimal storage, depending on what foods you are storing. FOOD MODES TYPES OF FOOD TO STORE Freezer (-1°F/-18°C) ‘Freezer’ mode is for general frozen food items that require storage between 1–12 months.

Meat, poultry, seafood, pre-cooked foods and leftovers, some fruit and vegetables, ice cream, and other frozen desserts. Chill (31°F/-0.5°C) ‘Chill’ mode is an extension of ‘fridge’ mode, providing the perfect storage zone for highly perishable food to ensure they retain their vital freshness and quality. These items will last slightly longer here compared with storage at ‘fridge’ mode. Note: Ensure these highly perishable items are consumed within their recommended storage times.

Highly perishable meats, poultry and seafood.

Alcoholic beverages such asbeer. Fridge (37°F/3°C) The ideal mode for fresh, everyday foods. This mode offers a higher relative humidity than many other refrigerators allowing fresh foods such as fruits and vegetables, meats and cheeses to stay fresh for longer.

Fruit and vegetables, dairy products, jams and chutneys/preserves, meats and drinks. Pantry (54°F/12°C) ‘Pantry’ mode provides a cool, dark place for a wide variety of foods that perish quickly or may spoil at room temperature, but are too sensitive to be stored at normal refrigerator temperatures.

Dry food items such as grains, flours, sugars, crackers, cereal, baked goods and breads.

Spreads, preserves, honey, tropical fruits, nuts and seeds, chocolate and fresh herbs. Wine (54°F/12°C) When ‘wine’ mode is activated thedefault setting is longer-term storage (54°F/12°C). This mode operates between 45°F (7°C) to 59°F (15°C), providing an ideal controlled environment for the storage of wines.

Bottle chill This feature allows you to rapidly chill your beverages in the freezer without the worry of forgetting about them. Activating ‘bottle chill’ drops the freezer down to its coldest setting for 15minutes. After 15minutes, an alarm will sound and the ‘bottlechill’ light will flash to remind you to remove your beverage. Fast freeze Boosts the freezing speed by dropping the freezer to its coldest temperature for a set time. Deep freeze Activating ‘deep freeze’ sets the freezer temperature to -13°F (-25°C) keeping frozen foods at its best for longer periods when stored in thick freezer proof packaging. Note: ‘deep freeze’ feature has no additional temperature adjustment. While ‘deepfreeze’ is active no lights will be displayed on the temperature adjustment area. Wine mode ‘Wine’ mode offers the ideal environment for both short and long-term wine storage for red or white wines. Temperature control is critical for the maturation of wines and ‘wine’mode ensures temperature fluctuations are low allowing wines to develop to their full potential. With manual/independent adjustability choose a storage temperature from 45–59°F (7–15°C) to suit your personal needs. Some wines are best consumed at a young age, while others have remarkable ageing capabilities. Do check with your wine merchant for more information. Recommended serving temperatures for different wines:

Fruit and vegetable storage

The top and bottom bins on the left-hand side of the drawer are fitted with a HumidityControl Lid that creates a humid microclimate to ensure optimum fruit and vegetable storage.

The Humidity Control Lid functions to prevent condensation from dripping onto the fruit and vegetables below by retaining the moisture into the specially designed grooves. Select the appropriate humidity control button depending on what is stored in the bins. The humidity controls are located on the left-hand side of the CoolDrawer™. To adjust the humidity setting: The picture on the top of the humidity control button will show the current setting. Tochange the setting, simply push the adjustment button. Suitable for salad greens such as: Suitable for fruit with skin/peel such as: Lettuce Spinach Broccoli Cabbage Carrots Oranges Lemons Limes Apples Pears Kiwifruit Store fruits and vegetables in separate bins if possible and without external packaging. Separating these will prevent ethylene-sensitive produce from ripening too quickly and help extend their storage life. If there is too much water in the bins (due to high humidity) the control can be adjusted to the setting. Wipe dry if required remembering that a small amount of condensation in the bins is beneficial for optimum storage. EN14 OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS Before placing food in the drawer

Clean the inside of the appliance with warm water and a little liquid detergent to remove manufacturing and transportation dust.

Ideally, allow the drawer to run empty overnight, or for at least 5hours, to allow it to cool to the appropriate temperature before placing food inside.

The appliance may have an odor initially, but this will go when the compartment has cooled sufficiently. Energy efficiency For the most energy efficient use of your appliance:

Ensure your CoolDrawer™ has adequate ventilation as recommended in the installationinstructions.

Allow good clearances in front of air ducts within the CoolDrawer™.

Cool hot foods down before placing them in the CoolDrawer™.

Keep door openings to a minimum.

Select a temperature setting that isn’t too cold. If your appliance is turned off for any reason, wait 10minutes before turning it back on. This will allow the refrigeration system pressures to equalize before restarting. The temperature of the drawer is accurately controlled and does not change with the temperature or humidity of the surroundings; whether summer or winter. To use the control panel

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS17 CLEANING CARE Do not use harsh chemicals, abrasives, ammonia, chlorine, bleach, concentrated detergents, solvents or abrasive scouring pads on any part of your appliance. Some of these chemicals may damage your appliance. Clean all surfaces with a mild liquid detergent dissolved in warm water and a soft cloth. Rinse with clean water and dry with a clean, lint free cloth. Interior

It is important to keep the interior of the drawer clean to help prevent food from becoming contaminated during storage. The amount and types of food stored determines how often cleaning should be carried out (ideally once every 1 to 2 weeks).

For ease of cleaning, remove the storage bins from the drawer.

The main storage tray can also be removed for cleaning. To remove the tray, slide the clips located on the back sides of the tray, into the center of the tray. Ensure the clips are pushed back to the sides once the tray is placed back into the drawer.

Wipe the control panel with a soft, damp, lint-free cloth.

To help remove any ‘old stale refrigerator’ smells add a few drops of vanilla essence or vinegar to the water before cleaning. Slide the clips to the middle, to unlock the tray Removal of storage tray EN18 Exterior Door gasket

We recommend cleaning the magnetic door gasket every three months with an old toothbrush, and liquid dishwashing detergent dissolved in warm water.

Gasket must be kept clean and pliable to ensure a proper seal. Air inlet duct

To maximize operating efficiency keep ventilation openings clear of obstructions by regularly vacuuming the flooring in front of your appliance.

We recommend cleaning the air inlet duct at least once every 6months with a vacuum cleaner. This is located on the bottom, left hand side of the appliance (accessed from the toe kick area).

More frequent cleaning may be necessary for dusty homes or those with pets shedding hair. Holiday/Vacation time We recommend you leave your appliance operating while you are on holiday. Remove allperishable food from the drawer. CLEANING CARE Air inlet duct19 FOOD CARE For best food care

Store only high quality, fresh food in your CoolDrawer™.

Store perishable foods in the CoolDrawer™ immediately after purchase. Storing at room temperature increases the rate of deterioration and can allow harmful microbial growth.

Foods such as meat, poultry and seafood should be well wrapped or sealed in suitable packaging to prevent dehydration, color deterioration, loss of flavor, and transfer of odor. – We recommend storing these foods on the bottom shelf of your CoolDrawer™ or in one of the bins to prevent potential spills and cross contamination with other foods.

Ensure hot foods and beverages are cooled sufficiently before placing them into the CoolDrawer™. Hot items may cause other foods to warm to unsafe temperatures. It may also cause sealed items to sweat/condensate which is undesirable.

Beverages are best stored standing upright in the door shelves or on the bottle racksprovided.

Ensure raw and cooked foods are stored separately to avoid cross contamination.

Consume food items within the recommended storage times. Discard foods that show sign of spoilage.

Keep door openings to a minimum to maintain optimum storage temperatures inside your appliance.

We recommend using ‘fast freeze’ when you are adding food items to your CoolDrawer™, such as after grocery shopping. This feature will ensure the food is chilled/frozen within the shortest period of time, locking in the freshness and extending the shelf life of your food. Items stored in your CoolDrawer™ When in ‘fridge’ or ‘chill’ mode

Dairy items such as butter and cheeses should be stored in the covered containers to minimize any transfer of odor or odor absorption with other foods.

Eggs should be stored in their carton to avoid absorption of strong odors through their porous shell structure. When in ‘freezer’ mode

We recommend cooling carbonated beverages only when the ‘bottle chill’ function isactive. – Do not store carbonated drinks without this function in the freezer, failure toremove beverages could lead to freezing liquid and the likelihood of bottle/canexplosion.

Ensure air is removed from packaging to avoid large formation of ice crystals and prevent freezer burn.

To maintain freshness and quality we recommend defrosting foods in the refrigerator. Ensure partially or fully defrosted foods are never re-frozen — cook immediately. EN20

USER WARNINGS AND SOUNDS

User warnings Faults In the unlikely event a fault occurs the icon will illuminate on the control panel and an alarm will sound.

If such a fault occurs, please contact our Customer Care Center immediately.

To silence the fault alarm press any button on the control panel. The icon will remain illuminated until the fault is corrected. Normal operating sounds The CoolDrawer™ with its excellent energy ratings and cooling performance, can produce sounds that may be different to your old refrigerator. Normal operational sounds include:

Fan, airflow sound. The CoolDrawer™ has a fan which circulates air around the drawer to provide cooling. This produces some air flow sound. This is quite normal. – The CoolDrawer™ also has a condenser fan to discharge heat through the condenser. This also produces some airflow sound. This is normal.

Cracking or popping which may sound like ice breaking or falling. This occurs when the defrost function is operating.

Running water sound. This is the liquid refrigerant in the system, and can be heard as a boiling or gurgling noise.

An audible hissing sound after closing the drawer. This is due to the pressure difference between the warm air that has entered the drawer and suddenly cooled, and the outside air pressure.

A humming sound. This is normal as the motor operates for long periods of time. This appliance uses an energy efficient, variable speed compressor that saves energy by running for long periods of time on a low speed. This is more energy efficient than the conventional on/off method.

Other sounds may be heard for the following reasons: – Floor or cabinetry uneven or weak. – Bottles or jars rattling. – Appliance not installed correctly.21 TROUBLESHOOTING If there is a problem with your appliance, please check the following points before contacting your local Fisher & Paykel trained and support service technician or the Customer Care Center.
