Installing your refrigerator

Location

When selecting a position for your appliance you should make sure the floor is flat and firm, and the room

is well ventilated with an average room temperature of between 16ºC and 32ºC. Locate the appliance

away from direct sunlight and source of heat (stove, heater, radiator, etc.). Direct sunlight may affect the

acrylic coating and heat sources may increase electrical consumption. Extreme cold ambient

temperatures may also cause the appliance not to perform properly. This unit is not designed for use in a

garage or any other outside installation. Avoid locating the appliance in moist areas. It must therefore be

installed so that the appliance has at least 10cm (2.5”) if free space and the sides have 2cm (3/4”). The

appliance door can either open to the right or the left, depending on whichever suits you. See page 6 if

you want to reverse the door swing. Do not drape your appliance with any covering.

Moving the appliance

Position your appliance in front of its final operating position and gentle slide the appliance into position.

A minimum of two persons must be used to move the appliance.

Leveling the Refrigerator

Remove the packaging support form the base of the appliance and replace with the 2 leveling feet. Make

sure the appliance is level. Use the leveling feet at the front. If the appliance is not level, the doors and

magnetic seal alignments will be affected.

Cleaning before use

Wipe the inside of the appliance with a weak solution of bicarbonate soda. Then rinse with warm water

using a damp sponge or cloth. Wash the baskets and shelves in warm soapy water and dry completely

before replacing in the refrigerator. The external parts of the refrigerator can be cleaned with wax polish.

If you require more information refer to cleaning on page 8.

Before plugging in YOU MUST

Check that you have a socket which is compatible with the plug supplied with the appliance. If not, please

consult a qualified technician for assistance.

Before switching on!

DO NOT SWITCH ON UNTIL TWO HOURS AFTER MOVING THE REFRIGERATOR

The coolant fluid needs time to settle.

Getting Started

Switching on your refrigerator

1. Before connecting the refrigerator to the mains supply make sure that the thermostat control dial is set

at position 0, This is located on the right inside of the cabinet.

2. Turn the thermostat knob clockwise to set it to the desired position. Bear in mind that the higher the

number, the colder the temperature.

3. To ensure the refrigerator is cool enough to sufficiently chill your food wait 24 hours before filling with

food.

Adjusting the temperature

The internal temperature of your appliance is controlled by a thermostat. Position 7 makes the appliance

coldest. Position 1 makes it the warmest and 0 turns the appliance Off. The recommended setting for the

appliance is between 1 and 4 for colder working environments. The appliance may not operate correctly

if it is in a particularly hot or cold room or if the door is opened ofter.

Is the refrigerator cold enough?

If you are at all concerned that your appliance is not being kept cold enough, or you occasionally wish to

check the temperature, you can purchase a Fridge/ Larder thermometer. These are available from most

supermarkets and hardware shops. Place thethermometer in the coldest part of your appliance (located

at the back for the refrigerator, below the shelf), where it can be easily read. Leave overnight, the correct

temperature should be between 0ºC and 5 ºC . See 'Adjusting the temperature’.

Noise inside the refirgerator

If you have not owned an appliance before, you may notice that it makes some rather unusual noises.

Most of these are perfectly normal, but you should be aware of them.

Gurgling, whooshing

These noises are caused by the circulation of the refrigerant liquid in the cooling system. It has become

more pronounced since the introduction of CFC free gases. This is not a fault and will not affect the

performance of your refrigerator.

Humming, purring or pulsating

This is the compressor motor working, as it pumps the refrigerant around the system.

Shopping for chilled foods

Don’t buy it in your lunch hour!

Unless you have an appliance at work to keep the food cold in the afternoon, leaving food in your car or at

room temperature for a prolonged period of time could raise food temperature to dangerous level allowing

harmful bacteria to grow.

Keep chilled foods together

Try to keep chilled food together whilst shopping and on the journey home as this will help to maintain the

coldness of the food.

Use a cool bag

Special insulated bags can be bought from most supermarkets and hardware shops. These keep food

cold for longer, but are only for getting chilled foods home, not storing it.

Unwrap as soon as you get home

Always unpack and place chilled foods in the appliance before storing dry food stuffs.

In use

Tips for keeping food perfect in the refrigerator

Take extra care with meat and fish

Cooked meats should always be stored on a shelf above raw meats to avoid bacterial transfer. Keep raw

meats on a plate which is large enough to collect juices and cover it with ding film or foil.

Leave space around food

This allows cold air to circulate around the appliance, ensuring all parts of the appliance are kept cool.

Wrap up food!

To prevent transfer of flavours and drying out, food should be separately packed or covered. Fruit and

vegetables need not be wrapped.

Pre-cooked food should be cooled properly

Always let pre-cooked food cool down before you put in the appliance. This will stop the internal

temperature of the appliance from rising.

Shut the door

To prevent cold air escaping, try to limit the number of times you open the door. When returning from

shopping, sort foods to be kept in your refirgerator while the door is closed and only open it to put food in or

take food out.

NOTE: ALWAYS WRAP AND STORE RAW MEAT, POULTRY AND FISH ON THE LOWEST SHELF AT

THE BOTTOM OF THE APPLIANCE AS THIS WILL STOP THEM DRIPPING ONTO OR TOUCHING

OTHER FOODS. DO NOT STORE INFLAMMABLE GASES OR LIQUIRDS IN THE APPLIANCE.

Reverse the door swing

Ensure the appliance is unplugged and empty.

Adjust the two leveling feet to their highest position.

We recommend you have someone to assist you.
