INSTALLATION
INSTRUCTIONS
1. The space in the room where the
appliance is installed must not be
smaller than 10 cubic metres.
Do not put your fridge freezer in a cold
room where the temperature is likely
to go below +5 degrees C (41 degrees
F) during night time and/or especially
in winter.
This fridge freezer has been designed
to operate in ambient temperatures
between +5 and +32 degrees C (41

EN
8
and 90 degrees F) Therefore if the
appliance is installed in an unheated/
cold room (eg: conservatory/annex/
shed/garage etc) then the appliance
will not operate causing the freezer
compartment to run warmer and as a
result the storage time of frozen food
may be reduced.
3. Do not place the appliance near
cookers, radiators or in direct sunlight
as this will cause your appliance to
work harder. If installed next to a
source of heat or freezer, maintain the
following minimum side clearances:
From Cookers 50 mm (2”)
From Radiators 300 mm (12”)
From Freezers 25 mm (1”)

4Before operating
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.
6. Set the setting knob 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 Control and Adjustment)”

EN
14
5Using your refrigerator
TEMPERATURE CONTROL
AND ADJUSTMENT
Operating temperatures are controlled
by the setting knob (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 knob
should be adjusted so that after 24
hours, the average fridge temperature
is no higher than +5°C (+41°F). We
recommend you set the knob 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 setting knob 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.

SUGGESTED
ARRANGEMENT OF FOOD
IN THE FRIDGE/FREEZER
Arrangement Examples (See diagram)
2. The freezer compartment is
rated and suitable for the freezing of
fresh food and storage of pre-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.
1. Baked, chilled cooked food, dairy
products, cans.
2. Meat, sausages, cold cuts.
3. Fruit, vegetables, salads.
4. Making, storing ice cubes.
5. Frozen food.
6. Frozen food and freezing of fresh
food.
7. Butter, cheese.
8. Small bottles, cans, tubes.
9. Eggs.
10.Tall/Large bottles.
11.Bottle and can rack
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.

10
11*

EN
16
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.
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
20 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
instructions 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.
Do not exceed the freezing capacity
of your appliance in 24 h which is 4 kg
(8.8 lb)
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
thermostat knob towards MAX. Small
quantities of food up to 1/2 kg. (1 lb)
can be frozen without having to rotate
the temperature control knob.
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

EN
17
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 allow items in
the fridge to touch the back wall as
the water droplets will make them
wet. 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
· Defrost twice a year or when a frost
layer of around 7 mm (1/4”) has formed.
· To start defrosting procedure switch
off the appliance at the socket outlet
and pull out the mains plug.All food
should be wrapped in several layers of
newspaper and stored in a cool place
(e.g. fridge or larder). Remove all freezer
drawers. Place a bowl underneath the
spout to collect the water. Ensure you
use a bowl large enough to contain the
defrost water. Normally the volume of the
bowl should be about 4 (four) litres.
Leave the freezer door open. Containers
full of warm water may be placed
carefully in the freezer to speed up the
defrosting.Do not use pointed or sharp
edged objects such as knives, forks to
remove the frost. Never use hairdryers,
electrical heaters and other similar
electrical appliances for defrosting. When
defrosting has finished, fold back the
spout and dry the interior thoroughly.
Remove the bowl and empty it. Close
the freezer door. Insert the plug in to the
wall socket and switch on the electricity
supply.
· 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.
