INSTALLATION INSTRUCTION

Fig. 5 - Aligning the panel door

Close the door and check the alignment with the other unit door (if applicable) or adjacent cabinets. Adjust the cabinet door by screwing or unscrewing the adjustment/angle alignment bolts for vertical adjustment and by the help of the slots on the fixing bracket for other directions. Lock the screws into place as shown in Fig. 5.

Fitting the cabinet door bottom brackets

With the appliance door open, locate the metal door lower f fixing brackets and screw the bracket to the cabinet door. You may need to remove and re-fit these brackets depending upon the cabinet door style used.

Fitting the decorative cover

Re-fit the decorative cover, that you removed in the first step, on to the cabinet door upper bracket.

Check that the whole door assembly operates smoothly and that the door seals are still creating a good seal.

Tip: If you hear wood touch wood when a door closes, it's possible the door panel is contacting the cabinet gable and potentially preventing a tight gasket seal. Adjust the panel further away from the appliance door to ensure a small gap between the cabinet panel and the gable.

SMEG CB2485U - Fitting the decorative cover - 1

text_image Fig 5 1 2 ⑩ ⑧

Ensuring the door seals correctly:

It is normal for the seal to be compressed after the door has been reversed.

With the door closed, use a hair dryer to expand the seal and fill the gap between the door and the body of the appliance.

Take care not to use the hair dryer too close to the appliance, which could damage the seal.

A distance of approximately 10 cm / 4 inches should be adequate.

When completed, allow the seal and door to cool before touching them.

Once done, the seal will remain in position.

BEFORE FIRST USE

You must allow the unit to settle for at least twenty-four hours after transport prior to switching the power on. It is recommended that you clean the interior of the appliance prior to first use, using a solution of baking soda (sodium bicarbonate) and warm water and then thoroughly drying the interior. The unit may have an odor to it at first use. This will disappear as the unit cools.

Please note:

The unit will start with a default set temperature of 5^ C ( 41^ F) for fridge, 2^ C ( 36^ F) for special refrigerator compartment and -18^ C ( 0^ F) for freezer and work continuously until it achieves the correct temperatures. If the appliance is switched off, you should allow five minutes before switching it on again to prevent unnecessary strain to the compressor.

Never store inflammable or explosive items and strong corrosive acids or alkalis in the unit. This fridge cools your food by making the inner back of the cavity cold. It is normal for frost to build up on its surface; it then turns into liquid during compressor off-cycles and drains through a small drain at the bottom, where it evaporates harmlessly. The presence of frosting or moisture at the back is normal.

Refrigerator storage

  1. Never put liquids in the refrigerator uncovered.
  2. Never put hot foods in the refrigerator. Warm food should be allowed to cool to room temperature before being put into the refrigerator.
  3. Nothing should rest against the rear wall of the refrigerator, as this will cause frost and possible condensation problems which could be difficult to remove.
  4. Make sure food is clean and any extra water is wiped away before putting into the refrigerator.
  5. Wrap or cover food before putting into the fridge. This will help prevent the loss of moisture, keep food fresh and avoid unpleasant odors.
  6. Any foods to be used soon should be stored at the front of the shelf to prevent deterioration caused by the door being open for prolonged periods.
  7. Do not overfill the refrigerator. There should be sufficient space between the foods to allow the cool air to circulate.
  8. Thawing frozen foods in the refrigerator compartment will help to keep the temperature low and save energy.
  9. Never store raw meats on shelves above cooked meats or other produce. This will help to prevent juices from raw meat contaminating other food items.

Freezer storage

  1. The freezer compartments are designed to store only frozen food.
  2. Never put hot or warm foods in the freezer, allow them to cool fully before putting them into the freezer.
  3. Follow the instructions on the food packaging for storage of frozen food. If no information is provided, foods should not be stored for more than three months after the purchase date.
  4. Store food in small packages (ideally less than 1 kg / 2.2 lbs). This reduces the freezing time and improves the quality of the food after thawing.
  5. Wrap food before putting into the freezer. To stop the wrapping sticking together, ensure it is dry.
  6. Label the food before freezing with information including type of food and dates of storage and expiry.
  7. Once food is thawed, it must not be refrozen. Only defrost as much food as is required to prevent waste.
  8. Bottled or canned drinks should not be stored in the freezer compartments as they could explode.
  9. The maximum amount of fresh food that can be frozen within a 24-hour period is 3 kg / 6.6 lbs.
  10. Do not attempt to freeze more than the maximum amount.

STORAGE INSTRUCTION

The refrigerator section is for short-term food storage. Although low temperatures can be maintained, extended periods of food storage are not recommended.

As the cold air circulates within the fridge, the temperature can vary between the different sections. As such, foods

should be stored in different sections according to type.

  1. Butter, cheese, etc.

  2. Food in jars and bottles

  3. Drinks, e.g. milk

  4. Cooked food

  5. Yoghurts, preserves, etc.

  6. 75 ml / 2.5 oz bottles or ready meals, etc.

  7. Fresh meat and fish

  8. Fruit and vegetables

STORAGE INSTRUCTION

Fresh zone

◆ The fresh zone means that you can control its temperature independently.
◆ Fresh zone temperature ranges from -3^ ( 27^ ) to 3^ ( 37^ ).
The fresh zone is designed to make it easier to handle ingredients in a short period of time, when you handle frozen foods.
Zero-degrees preservation technology guarantees a relatively stable, independent, very close to -3 °C (27 °F), but not less than -3 °C (27 °F) fresh-keeping compartment, maintaining a steady temperature level - so that the food will be kept fresh for a longer period of time and will not be frozen
◆ Suggestions for use: It is recommended to store fresh fish, fresh meat and dried fruit in condition of -2^ C ( 28^ F) to 0^ C ( 32^ F). Put the frozen ingredients into the fresh zone 4/5 hours before use, you can cut or cook frozen foods effortlessly and enjoy a faster and healthier cooking experience.
It is recommended to store vegetables and fruits at 0^ C ( 32^ F) to 3^ C ( 37^ F).
Note: If you want to store easy-drying ingredients such as meat into the zero-temperature zone for more than 4 hours, you should use plastic wraps to avoid excessive moisture loss and affect the taste.

Crisper drawer humidity adjustment

The crisper drawer within this appliance features a humidity level adjustment slider. Vegetables and similar produce that are subject to wilting (e.g. arugula, spinach leaves, herbs such as basil etc.) should be kept in the crisper drawer and the adjustment slider kept closed (fully to the left - high). By keeping the adjustment slider closed, water vapor is held in the drawer and subsequently greens are kept crisper and fresher for longer
By contrast, fruits that are susceptible to rotting should be stored in the crisper drawer with the humidity adjustment slider fully open (to the right - low). This will allow gases, emitted by certain produce and that accelerate the rotting process, to exit the crisper drawer
◆ The drawer is marked high and low with vegetable and fruit symbols to aid you
