This appliance is designed to operate
at temperatures specified in the table
below is equipped with ‘Freezer Guard’
which ensures that at the advised setting
[4 - four on the control] the frozen food
in the freezer will not defrost even if the
ambient temperature falls as low as
-15 °C. So you may then install your
appliance in a garage or an unheated
room without having to worry about
frozen food in the freezer being spoilt.
However at low ambient temperatures
mentioned above, fridge contents are
likely to freeze, so check and consume
food in the fridge accordingly. When the
ambient temperature returns to normal,
you may change the setting to suit your
needs.
CIf the ambient temperature is below
0°C, the food in the fridge compartment
will freeze.So, we recommend you don’t
use the fridge compartment in such low
ambient conditions. You can continue
using the freezer compartment as
usual.

4Preparation
CYour refrigerator should be installed at
least 30 cm away from heat sources
such as hobs, ovens, central heater
and stoves and at least 5 cm away
from electrical ovens and should not be
located under direct sunlight.
CPlease make sure that the interior of
your refrigerator is cleaned thoroughly.
CIf two refrigerators are to be installed
side by side, there should be at least 2
cm distance between them.
CWhen you operate your refrigerator
for the first time, please observe the
following instructions during the initial
six hours.
- The door should not be opened
frequently.
- It must be operated empty without
any food in it.
- Do not unplug your refrigerator. If
a power failure occurs out of your
, please see the warnings in the
“Recommended solutions for the
problems” section.
C Original packaging and foam
materials should be kept for future
transportations or moving.
Final Check
Before you start using the fridge/freezer
check that:
1. The feet have been adjusted for
perfect levelling.
2. The interior is dry and air can circulate
freely at the rear of the cabinet.
3. Clean the interior as recommended
under “CLEANING AND CARE.”
4. Insert the plug into the wall socket
and switch on the electricity supply.
• When the door is open the fridge
interior light will come on.
5. You will hear a noise as the compressor
starts up. The liquid and gases sealed
within the refrigeration system may also
give rise to noise, whether the compressor
is running or not which is quite normal.
“Due to operation of the fan inside the
frost free freezer compartment, overall
noise level is slightly higher in comparison
to non-frost free appliances. This is quite
normal and is not a fault.”
6. Set the setting half way between min
and max.
7. Front edges of the cabinet may
feel warm. This is normal. These areas
are designed to be warm to avoid
condensation.
8. “Do not load the appliance
immediately it is switched on. Wait until
the correct storage temperature has
been reached. We recommend that you
check the temperature with an accurate
thermometer (see; Temperature and
Adjustment)”
9. When the freezer reaches the desired
temperature the freezer fan will stop.
When the freezer fan is on, the noise
will be louder when the freezer door is
opened.
10. Avoid spillage of food particularly
small items like rice, peas, beans through
the fan guard as they may cause the
cooling system to block and therefore
operate less efficiently.

EN
16
TEMPERATURE CONTROL AND
ADJUSTMENT
Operating temperatures are controlled
by the thermostat (see diagram) located
on the ceiling of fridge compartment.
Settings may be made from min, 1 ...
6, max, max being the coldest position.
When the appliance is switched on
for the first time, the setting should be
adjusted so that after 24 hours, the
average fridge temperature is no higher
than +5°C (+41°F). We recommend
you set it half way between the min
and max setting and monitor to obtain
the desired temperature i. e. towards
max you will obtain a colder fridge
temperature and vice versa. Some
sections of the fridge may be cooler or
warmer ( such as the salad crisper and
the top part of the cabinet ) which is
quite normal.
The normal storage temperature of
the freezer should be -18°C (0°F).
Lower temperatures may be obtained
by adjusting towards max position.
We recommend that you check
the temperature with an accurate
thermometer to ensure that the storage
compartments are kept to the desired
temperature.
Remember you must take your reading
very quickly since the thermometer
temperature will rise very rapidly after
you remove it from the freezer.
Please remember each time the door
is opened cold air escapes and the
internal temperature rises. Therefore
never leave the door open and ensure
it is closed immediately after food is put
in or removed.
If the ambient (room or garage)
temperature is between 0 °C and
-15 °C, we recommend you adjust to
setting 4 to reach -18 C in the freezer
compartment. Lower temperatures
may be obtained by adjusting setting
towards max position.

SUGGESTED ARRANGEMENT OF
FOOD IN THE FRIDGE/FREEZER
Arrangement Examples (See diagram)
1. Baked, chilled cooked food, dairy
products, cans.
2. Meat, sausages, cold cuts.
3. Fruit, vegetables, salads.
4. Making, storing ice cubes.
5. Quick freeze compartment and
storage of frozen food
6. Frozen food .
7. Butter, cheese.
8. Eggs.
9. Tall, large bottles, beverages.
10. Winerack
The following guidelines and
recommendations are suggested to
obtain the best
results and storage hygiene.
1. The fridge compartment is for the
short term storage of fresh food and
drinks.
2. The freezer compartment is rated
and suitable for the freezing and storage
of frozen food. The recommendation
for storage as stated on the food
packaging should be observed at all
times.
3. Cooked dishes must be stored in
airtight covered containers.
4. Fresh wrapped produce can be
placed on the shelf. Fresh fruit and
vegetables should be cleaned and
stored in the crisper bins.
5. Bottles can be placed in the door
section.
6. To store raw meat, wrap in polythene
bags and place on the lowest shelf. Do
not allow to come into contact with
cooked food to avoid contamination.
For safety, only store raw meat for two
to three days.
7. Keep the food packed wrapped or
covered. Allow hot food and beverages
to cool before placing them in the fridge.
Do not store explosive substances.
High proof alcohol must be stored
upright in sealed containers. Left over
canned food should not be stored in
the can.
8. Fizzy drinks should not be frozen
and products such as flavoured water
ices should not be consumed too cold.
9. Some fruit and vegetables suffer
damage if kept at temperatures near
0°C. Therefore wrap pineapples,
melons, cucumbers, tomatoes and
similar produce in polythene bags.
10. Place chilled cooked food and
similar food near the rear of the fridge
inner liner where the cold wall is located.
11. Shelves, racks, crisper bins,
drawers, flaps, bottle grippers are all
removable.
12. Do not leave frozen food at room
temperature to thaw; the best way to
defrost food is to put it in the fridge
to thaw slowly. Make sure you avoid
defrosting food or food juices drip onto
other food.
13. For hygiene reasons, always wrap
food using a suitable packaging material
before storing in your appliance to avoid
contact with the appliance surface.

EN
18
STORING FROZEN FOOD
Prepacked commercially frozen food
should be stored in accordance with the
frozen food manufacturer’s instructions
for a frozen food storage
compartment.
To ensure that the high quality achieved
by the frozen food manufacturer and
the food retailer is maintained, the
following should be remembered:
1. Put packets in the freezer as quickly
as possible after purchase.
2. Ensure that contents are labelled
and dated.
3. Do not exceed “Use By”, “Best
Before” dates on the packaging.
If there is a power failure do not open
the door. Frozen food should not be
affected if the failure lasts for less than
13 hrs. If the failure is longer, then the
food should be checked and either
eaten immediately or cooked and then
re-frozen.
FREEZING FRESH FOOD
Please observe the following structions
to obtain the best results.
Do not freeze too large a quantity at
any one time. The quality of the food
is best preserved when it is frozen
right through to the core as quickly as
possible.
Placing warm food into the freezer
compartment causes the refrigeration
compressor to operate continuously
until the food is frozen solid. This can
temporarily lead to excessive cooling of
the refrigeration compartment.
When freezing fresh food turn the
setting towards Max. Small quantities
of food up to 1/2 kg. (1 lb) can be
frozen without having to rotate the
temperature control .
You may place fresh food to be frozen
in any part of the freezer.
Take special care not to mix already
frozen food and fresh food.
MAKING ICE CUBES
Fill the ice - cube tray 3/4 full with
water and place it in the Ice Bank.
Loosen frozen trays with the handle of a
spoon, never use sharp edged objects
such as knives, forks. Store ice-cubes
in the Ice Bank.
Note: If freshly made ice cubes are
not consumed for several weeks and
stored in Ice Bank, they will slowly
reduce in size and eventually disappear
completely.

DEFROSTING
A) FRIDGE COMPARTMENT
The fridge compartment defrosts
automatically. The defrosting water
runs to the drain tube via a collection
container at the back of the appliance
(1). (see diagram) During defrosting
water droplets may form at the back
of the fridge compartment where
concealed evaporator is located. Some
droplets may remain on the liner and
refreeze when defrosting is completed.
Do not use pointed or sharp edged
objects such as knives, forks to remove
the droplets which have frozen.
If at any time the defrost water does
not drain from the collection channel,
check to ensure that no food particles
have blocked the drain tube. The drain
tube can be cleared by pushing the
special plastic plunger provided down
the drain tube (2). If the frost layer
reaches about 1/4”(7 mm), reduce
the setting (i.e. from 4 to 1) to restart
automatic defrosting.
B) FREEZER COMPARTMENT
The freezer compartment operation is
frost free and does not need defrosting.
Warnings!
The fan inside the freezer compartment
circulates cold air. Never insert any
object through the guard. Do not allow
children to play with the freezer fan.
Never store products that contain
inflammable propellant gas (eg
dispensers, spray cans etc.) or
explosive substances.
Don’t cover the shelves with any
protective materials, which may
obstruct air circulation.
Do not allow children to play with the
appliance or tamper with the controls.
Do not obstruct the freezer fan
guard to ensure that you obtain the
best possible performance from your
appliance.
