cleaning before use
Wipe the inside of the unit with a weak solution of bicarbonate soda. Then rinse with warm water
using a sponge or cloth. Wipe completely dry before replacing the drawers. Clean the exterior of
the unit with a damp cloth.
If you require more information refer to the Cleaning section.
before using your unit
Before placing any food in your unit, turn it on and wait for 24 hours, to make sure it is working
properly and to allow it time to fall to the correct temperature. Your unit should not be overfilled.
• Before Plugging in YOU MUST
Check that you have a socket which is compatible with the plug supplied with the unit.
• Before Turning On!
Do not turn on until two hours after moving the unit. The coolant fluid needs time to
settle.
In some cases, the door seal may be crushed after prolonged storing pressure, resulting
to the door seal not able to close properly when reversed.
Follow the steps below to solve the issue:
1. Peel off the door seal from the upper or lower corner and
warm it with a hairdryer; the warmth can allow the door seal
to return to its original form. Do not blow directly on the unit
as the warmth may damage other parts of the unit.
2. Rotate the door seal upside down so that the side originally
with the hinge stay with the hinge.
3. Insert the door seal back into the door from the upper or
lower corner.
4. If the issue still occurs, contact your local service centre for
assistance.

operation
switching on your unit
1. Before connecting the unit to the mains supply make sure
that the thermostat control dial is set at position 0. Connect
the mains cable to the mains socket.
2. Adjust the thermostat control dial to the desired position,
bear in mind that the higher the number, the lower the
temperature. Position 2or 3or 4is the recommended setting
when operating at normal room temperature (between 16°C and 38°C).
3. The unit may not operate at the correct temperature if it is in a particularly hot or a particularly
cold room, or if you open the door often.
4. To ensure that the unit is cool enough to sufficiently chill your food, wait 24 hours before filling it
with food.
5. If you are concerned that your unit is not being kept cold enough and wish to check the
temperature, you will need a special fridge/freezer thermometer. These are available from
most supermarkets and hardware shops. Place the thermometer in either the fridge or freezer
compartment and leave overnight. The correct temperature for the fridge compartment should
be at the recommended 0-8°C. The correct temperature for the freezer compartment should be
-18°C or lower.
adjusting the temperature
The internal temperature of the unit is controlled by a thermostat. The recommended position is
between 1to 4for colder working environments (i.e. during winter) and between 5to 7for hotter
environments. Please adjust according to the environment.
noises inside the unit!
You may notice that your unit makes some unusual noises. Most of these are perfectly normal, but
you should be aware of them!
These noises are caused by the circulation of the refrigerant liquid in the cooling system. It has
become more pronounced since the introduction of CFC free gases. This is not a fault and will
not affect the performance of your unit. This is the compressor motor working, as it pumps the
refrigerant around the system.
tips for keeping food in the unit
• Cooked meats/fishes should always be stored on a shelf above raw meats/fishes to avoid
bacterial transfer. Keep raw meats/fishes in a container which is large enough to collect juices
and cover it properly. Place the container on the lowest shelf.
• Leave space around your food, to allow air to circulate inside the compartments. Ensure all parts
of the unit are kept cool.
• To prevent transfer of flavours and drying out, pack or cover the food separately. Fruit and
vegetables do not need to be wrapped.
• Always let pre-cooked food cool down before you put in the unit. This will help to maintain the
internal temperature of the unit.
• To prevent cold air escaping from the unit, try to limit the number of times you open the doors.
We recommend that you only open the doors when you need to put food in or take food out.

preparations for freezing
• Use quality food and handle it as little as possible. Freeze food in small quantities as it freezes
faster, takes less time to defrost and enables you to control the quantity you need better.
• Leave cooked food to cool completely. Chill food before freezing if possible.
• Consider how you will want to cook the food before freezing it.
• Don’t freeze food in metal containers if you may want to microwave it straight from the freezer.
• Use special freezer bags, freezer film, polythene bags, plastic containers, and aluminium foil
(heavy duty grade only). If in doubt, double wrap your food. Don’t use aluminium foil for acidic
foods, e.g. citrus fruits. Don’t use thin cling film, glass, or used food containers without cleaning.
• Exclude as much air from the container as possible. You could buy a special vacuum pump
which sucks excessive air out of the packaging.
• Leave a small amount of air space when freezing liquids to allow expansion.
• You can use the space in the freezer most efficiently if you freeze liquids (or solids
with liquids, e.g. stew) in square blocks. This is known as “Preforming”. Pour the
liquid into a polythene bag which is inside a square sided container. Freeze it, and
then remove it from the container and seal the bag.
• Label your frozen foods as they will look the same when in frozen state. Use
special freezer tapes, labels and pens with different colours. This allows you to
easily organise and to effectively use the freezer. Write the contents and date; otherwise the
frozen food might exceed the storage time and this could cause food poisoning. Please refer to
your food packaging for the recommended storage time.
• You may also add the weight and cooking notes, e.g. “defrost first”, “cook from frozen” and keep
a separate log of what is in each drawer. This will save opening the door and searching around
unnecessarily.
defrosting frozen food
1. Take the frozen food out from the freezer compartment and uncover the frozen food. Let it
defrost at room temperature. Don’t forget that defrosting in a warm area encourages the growth
of bacteria and low temperature cooking may not destroy dangerous bacteria.
2. Drain off and throw away any liquid lost during defrosting.
3. Always make sure there are no ice-crystals in the food before cooking, particularly with meat.
These crystals indicate that the food has not fully defrosted.
4. Cook food as soon as possible after defrosting.
5. Many microwaves and ovens have a defrost setting. To avoid bacterial build up, only use these if
you intend to cook the food immediately afterwards.
Never re-freeze anything that has been defrosted unless you cook it again, to kill off harmful
bacteria. Never re-freeze defrosted shellfish. Re-seal packs properly after removing items.
This prevents drying or freezer-burn and a build up of frost on any remaining food.
