User Instructions
a: Super Freezing: If the ambient temperature is
more than 18°C, this switch can be used as the
super freeze switch.
The super freeze switch should be used for
freezing fresh food or when the RED lamp on the
head panel is ON (RED lamp on the head panel
becomes ON when there is insufficient cooling).
The appliance will work for longer when you
activate this switch, therefore after you get the
cold condition (or the RED lamp on the head
panel is off) you must return to the previous
position.
If the ambient temperature is more than
18°C, and you do not want to use the super
freeze function, it must always be set to the
OFF position.
b: Low Ambient Performance: If the ambient
temperature is less than 18°C, this switch can
also be used as a low ambient switch for good
low ambient performance.
In low ambient temperatures, this switch heats
the fridge part to prevent extra cooling/freezing.
Ice tray
• Fill the ice tray with water and place in the
freezer compartment.
• After the water has completely turned into
ice, twist the tray to get the ice cubes out.
Bottle holder
• In order to prevent bottles slipping or falling over,
use the bottle holder. Please see image below.

The freezer compartment is used for freezing fresh
foods and for storing frozen foods for the period of time
indicated on the packaging, and for making ice cubes.
• For freezing fresh food; wrap and seal fresh food
properly - the packaging should be airtight and
should not leak. Special freezer bags, aluminium foil
(heavy grade; if in doubt double-wrap), polythene
bags, and plastic containers are ideal.
• Do not allow fresh food to be frozen to come into
contact with already frozen food.
• Always mark the date and the content on the pack
and do not exceed the stated storage time.
• In case of a power failure or malfunction, the
freezer compartment will maintain a sufficiently
low temperature for food storage. However, avoid
opening the freezer door in order to slow down the
temperature rise within the freezer compartment.
User Instructions
The refrigerator compartment is used for storing
fresh food for a few days.
• Do not place food in direct contact with the
rear wall of the refrigerator compartment.
Leave some space around food to allow for the
circulation of air.
• Do not place hot food or evaporating liquids in
the refrigerator.
• Always store food in closed containers or
wrapped.
• To reduce humidity and avoid the formation of
frost, never place liquids in unsealed containers
in the refrigerator.
• Meat of all types, wrapped in packages, is
recommended to be placed on the glass
shelf just above the vegetable bin, where the
air is colder.
• You can put fruits and vegetables into the
crisper without packaging.
• To prevent cold air escaping, try not to open the
refrigerator door too often, and do not leave the
door open for long periods.
• The maximum amount of fresh foods that can be
loaded in the freezer within 24 hours is indicated
on the name plate (see Freezing Capacity).
• Never place warm food in the freezer
compartment.
• When purchasing and storing frozen food
products, ensure that the packaging is not
damaged.
• Storage time and recommended temperature for
storing frozen food is indicated on the packaging.
For storing and usage, follow the manufacturer’s
instructions. If no information is provided, food
should not be stored for more than 3 months.
• Following purchase, place frozen food in the
freezer compartment as soon as possible.
• Once food is thawed it must not be refrozen;
you must cook it as quickly as possible for
consumption or freeze once again.
Additional Storage: if you want to use the freezer’s
maximum net capacity, remove the drawers and
store items directly on the cooling tubes. This will
enable you to make use of the entire volume of the
compartment.

Defrosting the freezer compartment
WARNING: Plastic scraper is provided for scraping
ice in defrost process. Do not use sharp metal
objects for this operation. They could puncture the
refrigerator circuit and cause irreparable damage
to the unit.
To maintain the efficiency of the freezer, complete
defrosting will become necessary if the frost layer
exceeds 3-5mm.
• The day before you defrost, set the thermostat
dial to position “5” to freeze the foods
completely.
• During defrosting, frozen foods should be
wrapped in several layers of paper and kept in
a cool place. The inevitable rise in temperature
will shorten their storage life. Remember to use
these foods within a relatively short period of
time.
• Set the thermostat knob to position “0” and
switch off the appliance.
• Leave the door open to accelerate defrosting.
Remove the defrosted water from the
compartment.
• This appliance is provided with a special drain
system – as described in three steps below:
a: Pull out the bottom drawer (1) of the freezer
compartment and put it on the floor aligned to
the front of the cabinet (see Figure 13).
b: Pull out the drain pipe (2) placed on the back
wall of the freezer compartment.
c: If there is still defrosted water on the freezer floor,
clear it away by using a sponge.
• Clean the interior by hand with lukewarm water
and a little detergent.
Never use abrasive products or aggressive
cleaning agents.
• Dry the inside of the unit, plug it into the mains,
and set the thermostat knob to position “5”. After
24 hours, reset the thermostat to the desired
position.

Customer Helpline 0845 600 4632
Trouble Shooting
If your refrigerator is not working properly there may
be a minor problem, therefore check the following.
If the appliance does not operate, check if;
• There is a power failure,
• The mains plug is not properly plugged in,
or is loose
• The thermostat setting is on position “0”
• The socket is defective. To check this, plug in a
fully operable appliance into the same socket
If the appliance performs poorly, check if;
• You have overloaded the appliance
• The doors are not closed perfectly
• There are not enough ventilation ducts on
the kitchen unit as mentioned in the safety
instructions section of this instruction manual
(Page. 4)
If there is noise;
The cooling gas which circulates in the refrigerator
circuit may make a slight noise (bubbling sound)
even when the compressor is not running. Do not
worry, this is quite normal. If these sounds are
different check if;
• The appliance is installed firmly as described in
the Installation section of this manual (Page. 6)
• Objects on the appliance are vibrating
If there is water in the lower part of the refrigerator,
check if;
The drain hole for the defrost water is clogged up
(use the defrost drain plug to clean the drain hole).
IMPORTANT NOTES
• In case of a sudden power loss or disconnecting
reconnecting of the plug to the electrical socket,
the compressor’s protective thermal element
will be opened as the pressure of the gas in
the cooling system of your refrigerator has not
yet been balanced. 4 or 5 minutes later, your
refrigerator will start to operate; this is normal.
• If you will not be using your refrigerator for a
long period (holiday etc.), disconnect the plug
from the socket. Clean your refrigerator as per
page 13 of this document and leave the door
open to prevent any humidification or odour
forming. If there is still a problem with your
refrigerator despite following the instructions
in this manual, please consult your nearest
authorised service centre, or contact the
Customer Helpline on 0845 600 4632

Tips for Saving Energy
1. Install the appliance in a cool, well-ventilated
room, but not in direct sunlight and not near a
heat source (radiator, cooker etc.). Otherwise,
use an insulating plate.
2. Allow food and drink to cool down outside of
the appliance.
3. When thawing frozen food, place it in the
refrigerator compartment. The low temperature
of the frozen food will help to cool the refrigerator
compartment when it is thawing, thus saving
energy. If frozen food is put out side of the
appliance it causes energy wastage.
4. When placing drinks and other liquids inside the
larder they must be covered; otherwise humidity
increases in the appliance and working time
increases. Covering drinks and other liquids also
helps to preserve their smell and taste.
5. When placing food and drink inside the larder
open the appliance door as briefly as possible.
6. Keep the different temperature compartment
covers closed (crisper, chiller etc.).
7. The door gasket must be clean and pliable.
Replace gaskets if worn.
8. Occasionally clean the rear of the appliance
with a vacuum cleaner or paint brush to prevent
increased power consumption.
