INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
Before Using The Appliance
Remove the exterior and interior packaging.
Check to ensure that you have the following parts: 2 shelves and the instruction manual.
Before connecting the unit to the power source and switching it on, let it standupright for
approximately 2 hours. This will reduce the risk of a malfunction in the cooling system from movement
during transportation.
Clean the interior surface with lukewarm water using a soft cloth.
Installing The Appliance
This appliance is designed to be free standing only and should not be recessed or built-in.
Place yourunit on a floor that is strongenough to support the unit when it is fully loaded. To level your
unit, adjust the levelling legs at the bottom of the unit.
Allow 125mm of space between the back and sides of the unit which allows sufficient air circulation to
cool the compressor and the condenser.
Locate the unit away from direct sunlight and sources of heat (stove, heater, radiator, etc.). Direct
sunlight may affect the acrylic coating andheat sources may increase the electrical consumption.
Extreme cold ambient temperatures may also cause the unit not to perform properly.
Avoid locating the unit in moist areas.
Plug the unit into an exclusive, properly earthed wall socket. DO NOT, under any circumstances, cut
or remove the 3rd pin from the plug or earth wire from the power cable. Any questions concerning
earthing should be directed to a qualified electrician or authorised service company.
After plugging the appliance into a wall socket, allow the unit to cooldown for 2-3 hours before placing
food inside the refrigerator.

Electrical Connecon
IMPROPER USE OF THE EARTHED PLUG CAN RESULT IN THE RISK OF AN ELECTRIC SHOCK. IF THE POWER CABLE
IS DAMAGED, HAVE IT REPLACED BY AN AUTHORISED SERVICE CMPANY OR A QUALIFIED ELECTRICIAN.
This unit should be properly earthed for safety reasons. The power cable is fitted with a 3-pin plug,
which is correct for UK wall sockets, to minimise the risk of electric shock.
DO NOT, under any circumstances, cut or remove the 3-pin plug from the power cable supplied. For
personal safety, this appliance must be properly earthed. This unit requires a standard 220-240v
AC/50Hz electrical outlet with 3-pin UK socket.
Have the socket and circuit checked by a qualified electrician to ensure that the socket is properly
earthed.
To prevent accidental injury, the cable should be secured behind the unit and not left exposed or
dangling.
The unit should always be plugged into its own individual electric socket with a voltage rating
matching the rating label on the appliance. This ensures the best performance and also prevents the
overloading of household circuits which could cause a fire hazard if they overheated. NEVER unplug
the unit by just pulling on the power cable. Always switch off at the electric point first, then grip the
plug firmly and pull out from the socket. Repair or replace (with the help of a qualified electrician) all
power cables that have become frayed or otherwise damaged. Do not use a cable which shows
cracks or abrasion damage along its length or at either end. Take care not to damage the power cable
when moving the appliance.
Extension Cable
Because of potential safety hazards under certain conditions, it is strongly recommended that you DO
NOT use an extension cable with this unit. However, if you must use an extension cable, it is
absolutely essential that it is a 3-pin earthed extension cable with a UK standard plug and socket, and
that the electrical rating of the extension cable is 220-240v with a 13amp fuse.

OPERATING THE UNIT
Se ng the Temperature Control
The unit only has one control for regulating the temperature of the refrigerator. The temperature
control is located on the inside of the appliance (top right).
The first time you turn the unit on, set the temperature control to position “6”.
The range of the temperature control is from position “OFF” to “6”. After 24-48 hours adjust the
temperature control to the setting that best suits your needs.Setting “3” should be appropriate for
home or office use.
To turn the appliance off, turn the temperature control to ”OFF”.
NOTE: Turning the temperature control to “OFF” position stops the cooling cycle but does not shut
off the power to the unit. If the unit is unplugged, has lost power or is turned off, you must wait 3 to 5
minutes before restarting the unit. If you attempt to restart before this time delay, the unit will not start.

proceed to replace the E14 bulb.
FAILURE TO UNPLUG THE UNIT COULD RESULT IN AN ELECTRICAL SHOCK OR PERSONAL INJURY.
Power Failure
Most power failures are corrected within a few hours and should not affect the temperature of your
unit if you minimise the number of times the door is opened. If the power is going to be off for a
longer period of time, you need to take the appropriate steps to protect your food.
Holidays
Short Holidays: Leave the unit operating during holidays of less than 3weeks.
Long Holidays: If the appliance will not be used for several months, remove all food and unplug from
the socket. Clean and dry the interior thoroughly. To prevent odour and mould growth, leave the door
slightly open for ventilation, wedging it open if necessary.

10
Turn the levelling legs up to the base to avoid damage.
Tape the door shut.
Make sure the unit stays secure in the upright position during transportation.
Ensure to protect the outside of the unit with a blanket or a similar item.
Energy Saving Tips
The unit should be located 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 in the unit. Overloading the unit forces the
compressor to run longer.
Be sure to wrap foods properly and wipe containers dry before placing them in the unit. This
minimises frost build-up inside the unit.
The compartment of the appliance should not be lined with aluminum foil, wax paper or paper towels.
Liners interfere with cold air circulation, making the unit less efficient.
Organise and label food to reduce door openings and extended searches. Remove as many items as
needed at one time and close the door as soon as possible.
