and storage and help remove the typical smell of a brand new product. Then dry
thoroughly.
CAUTION: do not use harsh or abrasive detergents or powders as these will
damage the finish.

88After Sales Support
(AU) 1300 886 649 (NZ) 0800 836 761 | tempo.org/support
Installation
• Clearances: Allow at least 50mm clear space between the back and sides of the
unit and your wall or another appliance - and 300mm between the top of the unit
and the ceiling or top cabinet - to ensure proper air circulation, which is necessary
to allow for the cooling of the compressor and condenser (Fig.1).
Getting Started (Cont.)
• Location: Locate the bar fridge:
• On a firm and completely flat surface. Put a heat-proof base under the appliance
to block heat emission if you need to locate this appliance on carpet.
• Away from direct sunlight, which may affect the coating.
• Away from sources of heat (stove, heater, radiator, etc.), which may increase
power consumption.
• In an area without extreme cold ambient temperatures, which may affect cooling
performance.
• In an area without excessive moisture and high humidity.
• In an area where there are no obstructions that could prevent the fridge door from
closing.
• Positioning: make sure all adjustable legs are on the floor, and set the appliance to
slope slightly backwards to keep the doors closed tightly. For more on levelling this
appliance, see page 9.
• Enhancing energy efficiency: Installing the unit in the coolest area of the room will
save energy consumption and running costs.
• Before plugging in your new bar fridge, let it stand upright for approximately
2 hours.This will allow the refrigerant gases to settle into the compressor and
reduce the possibility of a malfunction in the cooling system from handling during
transportation.
• Electrical connection: Plug the unit into an exclusive, properly installed and
earthed wall outlet. Do not under any circumstances cut or remove the third (ground)
prong from the power cord. If in doubt about your setup, direct any questions
concerning power and/or grounding to a certified electrician.

• Power cord: Secure the bar fridge’s supply cord behind the unit. Do not leave it
exposed or dangling to prevent injury and accidental disconnection from the power
supply.
• Before Installation: Remove the bottom panel before installation.
• Plug the appliance into a wall outlet and allow it to cool down for 2–3 hours on
setting [ 7 ] before placing food in the refrigerator compartment.
Getting Started (Cont.)
Levelling the appliance
The appliance must be installed level so that it can work
properly and the magnetic doors seals are properly aligned.
Turn the levelling feet counter-clockwise to shorten, and
clockwise to lengthen (Fig. 2). To level the unit, tilt it slightly
backward, then adjust one or more of the levelling feet at the
base of the cabinet until the unit is level (Fig. 3).

Instructions
Temperature control
• The control for regulating the temperature in the
refrigerator (Fig. 4) is located inside of the fridge,
on the upper right hand side. The higher the
number on the dial, the colder the temperature
in the refrigerator compartment (i.e. [ 0 ] is the
warmest setting and [ 7 ] is the coldest).
• The first time you turn the unit on, set the
temperature control to the coldest position [ 7 ].
Fresh food storage tips
The refrigerator compartment is suitable for short-term storage
of fresh food. It has three adjustable door balconies, a crisper
drawer and crisper drawer cover, as well as two adjustable
shelves (Fig. 5). The temperature inside this refrigerator varies
depending on the amount of food stored and the frequency of
door opening.
• Do not overload the fridge.
• Keep enough space around items for cold airflow.
• Do not block ventilation openings. Do not place items directly against the back wall.
• Let hot food cool down to room temperature before storing them in the fridge.
Otherwise the cooling capacity will be affected and power consumption increased.
Hot items may also affect the plastic parts inside the appliance.
• If necessary, wipe containers clean and dry before storage in the refrigerator.
• Cover cooked foods and use sealed containers or storage bags to prevent food
from drying out, losing its taste or taking on aromas from other foods.
• Store butter and cheese in airtight containers, or wrap them thoroughly.
• Make sure milk bottles are properly closed before storage on a door balcony.
NOTE: this will most likely bring the interior temperature of the freezer to below 0°C.
After 24 to 48 hours, adjust it to the setting that best suits your needs – a middle setting
(at position 3–4) should be appropriate in most cases for general operation.
• To turn the appliance off, first turn the temperature control to the minimum position,
which will stop the cooling cycle, then disconnect the power supply cord from the
wall outlet in order to shut off power to the unit.
NOTE: The unit may not work at the set temperature on particularly hot days, or if the
door is opened too frequently. To ensure efficient operation, do not open
the door unnecessarily or for prolonged periods of time.
NOTE: If the unit is unplugged, turned off or has lost power, you must wait five
minutes before restarting the unit.

Instructions (Cont.)
Refrigerator Usage
• The most common temperature of food stored in refrigerator is from 4°C to 8°C.
In this environment, cooked meat can not be stored for more than four days, and
fruit and vegetables should not be stores for more than one week.
• Seafood must be stored in seperate, airtight container to the rest of the fridge’s
contents. It should be stored for no more than three days.
• Raw and cooked foods need to be stored in different containers. To prevent
bacterial contamination, raw fruit and vegetables should not be exposed to raw
meat or seafood. Fruit and vegetables should be wrapped in plastic wrap (or a
reusable alternative) and stored in the crisper.
Energy saving tips
• Place the fridge in the coolest area of the room, away from heat-producing
appliances and out of direct sunlight.
• Let hot foods cool to room temperature before placing them into the fridge.
Overloading the fridge forces the compressor to run longer.
• Wrap foods properly and wipe containers dry before placing them in the fridge. This
cuts down on frost build-up inside the fridge.
• Do not line any fridge storage bin with aluminum foil, wax paper or paper towels.
Liners interfere with cold air circulation, reducing cooling efficiency.
• Position food so that air can circulate freely around it.
• Do not leave the fridge door open for longer than required.
Power failure
Most power failures are corrected within a few hours and should not affect the
temperature inside your fridge, if you minimise the number of times the door is
opened. In addition, do not put additional food in the appliance if there is a power
failure. If the power failure is known about beforehand, make alternate arrangements
to store the contents of the fridge, such as an insulated container filled with ice.
However, if the power is going to be off for a longer period of time, you need to take
proper steps to protect your food.
Going away?
• Short vacation: Leave the fridge operating during vacations of less than a month.
• Long vacation: If you are not going to use the bar fridge for longer periods, remove
all food and unplug the power cord. Clean and dry the interior thoroughly. To
prevent odour and mould growth, leave the door open slightly, blocking it open,
if necessary. (Restrict children’s access to the room with the open fridge to avoid
creating a child entrapment risk.)
