As a reminder of the need to dispose of household appliances separately, the product is marked with a crossed-out wheeled dustbin.

Important

• Never store inflammable or explosive items and strong corrosive acids or alkalis in the appliance.
• This is a household appliance, which is produced in accordance with the national standard. It is intended for food storage only, not for storage of blood, medicine and biological products.
• To prevent risk of fire, keep the appliance away from petrol or any other inflammables.
• To prevent risk of electromagnetic interference or other accidents, do not place a microwave oven on top of the refrigerator or use any electric appliance inside the refrigerator.
• Do not allow children to play with or near the appliance.
• The internal surface of freezer compartment is very cold when the appliance is running. Do not touch the surface especially when hands are wet.
• Do not splash water onto the appliance. Keep it away from places of high humidity that may have adverse effect on the electric insulation performance.
• This appliance is designed to be used in ambient temperatures between 16 and 43^ . Use outside of this range may cause the appliance to fail.

Before first use

You must allow the fridge to settle for at least twenty four hours 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 bicarbonate of soda and warm water and then thoroughly drying the interior.

The fridge may have an odour to it at first use. This will disappear as the appliance cools.

Please note:

If you switch the appliance off, you should allow five minutes before switching it on again to prevent unnecessary damage to the compressor.

Never store inflammable or explosive items and strong corrosive acids or alkalis in the appliance.

This fridge cools your food by making the inside back of the cavity cold. It is normal for frost to build up on this surface; it then dissipates and drains through a small drain at the bottom, where it evaporates harmlessly.

Fridge use

• Never put liquids in the refrigerator uncovered.
• Never put hot foods in the refrigerator. Warm food should be allowed to cool to room temperature before being put into the refrigerator.
• Nothing should rest against the rear wall of the refrigerator, as this will cause frost and possible condensation problems which will be difficult to remove.
• Make sure food is clean and any extra water is wiped away before putting into the fridge.

• Wrap or cover food before putting into the fridge. This will help prevent the loss of moisture, keep food fresh and avoid unpleasant odours.

• Sort foods prior to storing. 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.

• Do not overfill the fridge. There should be sufficient space between the foods to allow the cool air to circulate.
• Thawing frozen foods in the fridge compartment will help to keep the temperature low and save energy.
• Never store raw meats on shelves above cooked meats or other produce. This will help to prevent juices from raw meat contaminating other foodstuffs.

Freezer use

• The freezer compartments are designed to store only frozen food.

- Never put hot or warm foods in the freezer, allow them to cool fully before putting them into the freezer.

- 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.

- Store food in small packages (ideally less than 1kg). This reduces the freezing time and improves the quality of the food after thawing.

- Wrap food before putting into the freezer. To stop the wrapping sticking together, ensure it is dry.

- Label the food before freezing with information including type of food and dates of storage and expiry.

- Once food is thawed, it must not be refrozen. Only defrost as much food as is required to prevent wastage.

• Bottled or canned drinks should not be stored in the freezer compartments as they could explode.
• The maximum amount of fresh food that can be frozen within a 24 hour period is 3.8 ~kg for this Model
• Do not attempt to freeze more than the maximum amount.
  • To freeze fresh food more quickly, switch on the super freeze function a few hours prior to placing the food in the freezer.

Note: If the appliance does not have a freezer compartment ( * * * *)it is not suitable for freezing foodstuffs.

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. rocket, 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 vapour 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.

Storage

The fridge section is for short term food storage. Although low temperatures can be maintained, extended periods of food storage is 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. Section 7 is the coldest part of the fridge.

1. Butter, cheeses etc.
2. Food in jars and bottles
3. Drinks, e.g. milk

4. Cooked food

5. Ready meals etc

6. Y ogurts, preserves etc
7. Fresh meat and fish
8. Fruit and vegetables

The fridge shelves can be moved according to the storage requirements within the fridge section. To move the shelf, lift up the rear section and then pull it outwards. To replace, slide the shelf back into the slot, and then lower the rear section.

Defrosting the freezer

The freezer has a no frost system which is designed to prevent the heavy build up of ice. Under normal use, there should be no need to regularly defrost the freezer system.

To help in times of service or cleaning, the appliance has a forced defrost mode which can be activated by touching and holding sensors E and H in Fig. 3 for approximately 3 seconds. The refrigerator temperature adjustment sensor (A) will flash to confirm that the forced defrost function is active. This function should automatically deactivate once the freezer temperature has reached between 10 and 12°C.

Please note: If you are regularly finding a heavy build up of ice, or pools of water, in the freezer section then it is likely that the door is not sealing properly. This could be due to a defective door seal or an incorrectly fitted, or overly heavy, decor door. For more information see the troubleshooting section on ice on page 14.

Defrosting the fridge

The fridge is self-defrosting. Any water created will run out of the fridge through the channel at the back of the fridge. The defrosted water is collected in the evaporating tray at the back of the appliance and dissipated by evaporation.

Care and cleaning

Always disconnect the appliance from the power supply before any cleaning or maintenance.

The fridge and freezer sections should be cleaned using a solution of bicarbonate of soda and lukewarm water. Do not use abrasive products or detergents. After washing, rinse and dry thoroughly.

Clean the shelves and balconies separately by hand with a mild solution of washing up liquid and water. Do not put them in the dishwasher.

If the appliance is not to be used for prolonged periods of time, unplug and clean the appliance. The doors should be left slightly ajar to prevent the formation of mildew and unpleasant odours.

Troubleshooting

If you have any problems with your appliance, you should check the troubleshooting prior to calling ...Customer Care.

If the appliance is not working, check:

• That there is power to the appliance.
• The house fuses are intact and the fuse in the plug has not blown.
• The fridge has not been turned off (page 10).
• The plug socket is functioning fine. To check this, plug another electrical appliance in to see if the socket is faulty.

If the appliance is working, but not very well, check:

• The appliance is not overloaded.
- The thermostat is set to an appropriate temperature.
• The doors are closing properly.
- The cooling system at the rear of the appliance is clean and free of dust, and not touching the rear wall.
- There is enough ventilation at the side and rear walls.

If the appliance is noisy, check:

• The appliance is level and stable.

- Note: The cooling gas in the refrigerator may make a slight bubbling or gurgling noise, even when the compressor is not running.

If the appliance is beeping, check:

- That the doors are closed. An alarm will sound after 60 seconds of a door being open.

If there's water in the base of the refrigerator compartment, check:

- The drain hole at the back of the compartment is clear (page 11).

If ice has formed on the back wall of the fridge:

• It is normal for some ice droplets to form on the back wall of the fridge. This does not constitute a fault with the appliance.
• Ensure that no items inside the fridge are in contact with the back wall.
• Check that there is some resistance when opening the door of the appliance. If it opens at the slightest touch it may mean that the door seal needs to be replaced.
• Check the door seal for any kinks, debris or damage. If you notice any, and are unable to resolve the issue yourself, contact ...
  Customer Care so that the seal can be replaced.
• This can be due to the decor door(s) not being properly fitted. If you are at all unsure, ask your fitter to check the decor doors.

If excessive ice has formed in the freezer:

Installation preparation

This appliance must never be installed close to heat sources, e.g. heating elements or cookers, nor in damp places.

Seek the help of another individual, or two, when installing this appliance. This appliance may have sharp edges. Wear adequate PPE for the task and environment.

• To ensure the appliance is level, you should use the height adjustable feet at the front of the appliance.
• The cooling system at the rear of the appliance must not touch the rear wall. The greater the gap, the better.
• The appliance must be installed with adequate ventilation. Ensure that there is clearance above the appliance to allow air to escape and that there is space between the rear of the appliance and the wall.

Cabinet dimensions

Ventilation

The main consideration when installing any refrigeration unit into a fitted kitchen is ventilation. The heat removed from the cooling compartment needs to be dissipated into the atmosphere. Incorrect ventilation can lead to premature compressor failure, excessive power consumption, total system failure and may invalidate the warranty provided with the appliance. For products intended to be installed into a tall housing unit, the requirements on the following page need to be met:

An air intake should be provided somewhere in the cabinet run to allow free air in. In this example, a plinth vent is shown underneath the refrigerator.

A cutout should be made in the plinth below the fridge/freezer and this finished neatly using the air vent grille supplied.

Alternatively, a thin section of the plinth can be removed to allow air into the unit (recommended 600mm x 10mm).

plan view of rear ventilation gap

The top of the cabinet needs to be vented into the room

Recommended size of vent opening: 500 x 40mm

If the furniture does not allow free air into the room then a plinth vent, or other means of ventilation needs to be provided to ensure a natural flow of air

There should be space at the rear of the cabinet to allow cool air to be drawn over the condenser.

Recommended: 500 x 40mm

Fig. 7

The open channel at the rear is clearly shown. For the correct operation of the appliance it is important that the top of the housing unit is not blocked off. A channel depth of 40-50mm is normal with most units.

A ventilation hole is required in the plinth of the unit; this allows air to

be drawn over the compressor & heat exchange. A decorative grille is supplied with the appliance to finish this vent neatly. Alternatively the required air flow can be achieved by removal of a thin section of plinth (600mm x 10mm minimum).

As a rule, the more air that can get in and out, the better and more efficient the operation of the product.

Installation into the cabinet

To ensure the appliance is level, you should use the height adjustable feet at the front of the appliance. The ventilation system at the bottom of the appliance must not be blocked

Push the appliance carefully into the cavity, make sure the appliance is in the central position of the cavity. Following the steps on the next page to fit the decor door, ensuring the door can be opened and closed properly then tighten the screws on the top, hinge side and the bottom.

Mounting the fascia doors

Fig. 9 - Fitting the decor door bracket

Remove the white decorative cover (Fig. 8) by lifting it upwards. Obtain the below measurements:

Dimension B = Measure from the underside surface of kitchen unit to the bottom of fixing bracket.

Simple line drawing of a rectangular object with two vertical supports at the base, labeled Fig. 8 (no text or symbols on the object itself)

Dimension C = Measure from the underside surface of kitchen unit to the top of next unit door.

Unscrew and remove the nuts and washers from the top of the appliance door to remove the bracket.

Fig. 10 - Fitting the decor door bracket

Subtract C from B and put the fixing bracket (2) in place using this measurement for vertical position and place to the centre for horizontal position. Secure the fixing bracket (2) using screws(1).

Fig. 11 - Fitting the decor door

Place the decor door onto the appliance door by inserting adjustment bolts into the slots on the fixing bracket.

Locate the washers and screw the nuts onto the adjustment bolts.

Fig. 12 - Aligning the decor door

Close the door and check the alignment with the other unit doors. Adjust the decor door by screwing or unscrewing the adjustment 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. 12.

Fitting the decor door base fixings

With the appliance door open, locate the metal decor door base fixing brackets and screw the fixings to the decor door. You may need to remove and re-fit these brackets depending upon the decor door used.

Fitting the decorative cover

Re-fit the decorative cover, that you removed in the first step, on to the decor door fixing bracket. Check that the whole door assembly operates smoothly and that the door seal of the refrigerator is still creating a seal.

Important: After completing the installation, check that the appliance is secured within the unit and that the door(s) close and open properly. If there is no resistance from the door seals when opening the doors, then it is probable that the appliance and/or decor doors are not fitted properly.

Reversing the appliance doors

We recommend you seek the help of another individual to support the doors whilst performing this operation.

1. Carefully prise off the white cover caps for the side that you wish to switch the hinges to
2. With the door closed remove the hinge caps and the screws from the top hinge attaching the hinge to the door, support the door whilst doing this, then remove the screws from the lower hinge

3. Support the door at the bottom and open the hinges away from the appliance door. Carefully lift the appliance door away, ensuring not to damage the hinges or the door. Place the door somewhere safe where it will not cause or receive damage

4. Repeat steps 1 to 3 for the lower door if necessary

5. With the top hinge open, remove the screws that fix the hinge to the appliance cabinet, do the same with the lower hinge.

6. Flip the top hinge 180 degrees and reattach the the hinge on the diagonally opposite corner of the appliance cabinet as shown in fig. 13

7. Swadrepen'sdoming the opposite side at the top. Refit the upper door and the "new" top hinge and fix securely to the appliance. Repeat this process for the bottom door if necessary

8. Fit the central cover caps and top hinge cover pieces in place to complete the process.
