▶ Functions like Super Freeze consume more energy.

▶ Allow warm food to cool down before placing it in the appliance. ▶ Open the appliance door as little and as briefly as possible. ▶ Do not overfill the appliance to avoid obstructing the air flow.

▶ Avoid air within the food packaging.

▶ Keep seals clean so that the door always closes correctly.

▶ Defrost frozen food in the fridge storage compartment.

Power interruption

In the event of a power cut, food should remain safely cold for about 5 hours. Follow these tips during a prolonged power interruption, especially in summer:

▶ Open the door/drawer as few times as possible. ▶ Do not put additional food into the appliance during a power interruption. ▶ If prior notice of a power interruption is given and the interruption duration is longer than 5 hours, make some ice and put it in a container in the top of the refrigerator compartment. ▶ An inspection of the goods is required immediately after the interruption. As temperature in the refrigerator will rise during a power interruption or other failure, the storage period and edible quality of food will be reduced. Any food that defrosts should be either consumed, or cooked and refrozen (where suitable) soon afterwards in order to prevent health risks.

Memory function during power interruption

After restoration of power, the appliance continues with the settings that were set before the power failure.

Unpacking

- Keep all packaging materials out of children's reach and dispose them in an environmentally friendly manner.

▶ Take the appliance out of the packaging.

Remove all packaging materials.

Environmental conditions

The room temperature should always be between 10°C and 43°C, since it can influence the temperature inside the appliance and its energy consumption. Do not install the appliance near other heat-emitting appliances (ovens, refrigerators) without isolation.

NOTICE

  • The specified energy consumption is based on the condition of a 10 mm gap from cabinet to rear of product. The product will work properly even with a gap which is less than 10 mm but it consumes slightly more energy. • We recommend using a cabinet that is 18mm thick with hinges less than 20mm thick. • The measurements in the above table may differ, depending on the measuring method.
  • For built-in installation, see the Installation Guide.

Ventilation cross-section

To achieve sufficient ventilation of the appliance for safety reasons, the information of the required ventilation cross sections must be observed.

HOOVER HONBQT5518DK-UK - Consideration for socket outlet location and required space - 2

NOTICE

If you install the refrigerator in a cabinet with a 560 mm depth, make sure the power cord is arranged on a side of the refrigerator before plugging into a power socket. If the power cord is in the rear of the refrigerator it could decrease the energy efficiency.

Waiting time

2 h

The maintenance-free lubrication oil is located in the capsule of the compressor. This oil can get through the closed pipe system during slanting transport. Before connecting the appliance to the power supply you have to wait at least 2 hours so that the oil runs back into the capsule.

Electrical connection

Before each connection check if:

▶ power supply, socket and fusing are appropriate to the rating plate. ▶ the power socket is earthed and no multi-plug or extension. ▶ the power plug and socket are strictly according.

Connect the plug to a properly installed household socket.

WARNING!

To avoid risks a damaged power cord must be replaced by the customer service (see warranty card).

  • The stated energy consumption is based on a gap of 10 mm between the cabinet and the back of the product. The product will operate correctly even if the gap is less than 10 mm, but it will consume slightly more energy.
  • We recommend using a cabinet with a thickness of 18 mm and hinges with a thickness of less than 20 mm. • Measurements in the table above may vary depending on the method.
  • For installation instructions for the built-in version, refer to the Installation Guide.

If you press button "K4" (temperature setting button "-") or button "K5" (temperature setting button "+") to adjust the refrigerator temperature, indicator "B" (Super Cool indicator) will flash accompanied by a rapid sound indicating that this action cannot be performed.
  2. In the Super Cool function state, the Auto-set function cannot be turned on simultaneously due to different control modes. When you select one function that conflicts with another function, the original function will automatically close.

Energy saving tips

▶ Ensure the appliance has proper ventilation (see INSTALLATION). Do not install the appliance in direct sunlight or near heat sources (e.g., oven, heater). Avoid unnecessarily low temperatures in the appliance. Energy consumption increases the lower the temperature set in the appliance. Functions like Super Freeze consume more energy. ▶ Wait for hot food to cool down before placing it in the appliance. Open the appliance door as little and as briefly as possible. Do not overfill the appliance to avoid obstructing air flow. Avoid trapping air when packaging food. Keep the door gaskets clean so they always close properly. ▶ Defrost frozen food in the refrigerator. The most energy-saving configuration requires keeping the appliance's drawers, food box, shelves, etc. in the factory-fresh state, and food should be placed as deep as possible without blocking the air duct outlets.

HOOVER HONBQT5518DK-UK - Energy saving tips - 1

WARNING!

Disconnect the device from the mains power supply before cleaning.

Cleaning

▶ Always keep the door gasket clean. ▶ Clean the interior and exterior of the appliance with a sponge soaked in warm water and neutral detergent. 1. Scrub the inside and outside of the refrigerator, including the door gasket, door shelf, glass shelves, drawers, etc., using a soft cloth or sponge dipped in warm water (you may add neutral detergent to the warm water).

  1. If liquid is spilled, remove all soiled parts, rinse directly under running water, dry, and put them back in the refrigerator.
  2. If a thick liquid is spilled (for example, whipped cream, melted ice cream), remove all soiled parts, place them in warm water at about 40 °C for a while, then rinse under running water, dry, and put them back in the refrigerator.
  3. If a small part or component gets stuck inside the refrigerator (between shelves or drawers), free it with a small soft brush. If you cannot reach the part, contact Haier customer service. ▶ Rinse and dry with a soft cloth. Do not clean any part of the appliance in a dishwasher. ▶ Wait at least 5 minutes before reconnecting the appliance, as frequent switching on can damage the compressor.

Defrosting

Defrosting of the refrigerator and freezer is automatic, so you do not need to do it manually.

HOOVER HONBQT5518DK-UK - WARNING! - 1

NOTE

- The stated energy consumption is based on a gap of 10 mm from the cabinet to the back of the product. The product will operate correctly even with a gap smaller than 10 mm, but it consumes slightly more energy.

- We recommend using cabinets with a thickness of 18 mm and hinges with a thickness of less than 20 mm.

- Measurements in the table above may vary depending on the measurement method.

For installation instructions for the built-in version, refer to the Installation Guide.

Cross-section for ventilation

Front panels of the built-in unit that exceed the permissible weight may cause damage and lead to functional impairment of the hinges.

Consideration of the socket location and required space

HOOVER HONBQT5518DK-UK - Consideration of the socket location and required space - 2

NOTE

If you install the refrigerator in a cabinet with a depth of 560 mm, make sure that the power cable is placed on the side of the refrigerator before plugging it into the socket. If the power cable is at the back of the refrigerator, this may reduce energy efficiency.

Waiting time

2 h

Maintenance-free lubricating oil is contained in the compressor capsule. This oil may pass through the closed pipe system during transport on an incline. Before connecting the appliance to the mains power supply, you must wait 2 hours so that the oil flows back into the capsule.

Electrical connection

Before any connection, check the following:

The power supply, socket, and fuses comply with the rating plate; the socket is grounded and has no multiple adapters or extension cords; the plug and socket strictly comply with regulations.

Connect the plug to a properly installed household socket.

HOOVER HONBQT5518DK-UK - Electrical connection - 1

WARNING!

To avoid risks, the customer service must replace the damaged power cable (see warranty card).
