Control Panel
A. Thermostat control
Use to switch on and set the desired temperature.
Before use GB
Position and clean the cabinet as explained in the
section "Installation".
Check that the drain hose at the rear of the cabinet
discharges into the drip tray.
Before inserting the power plug into the
outlet and switching on the cabinet for
the first time, leave it standing upright
for about 30 minutes, or for 4 hours if it
was transported horizontally. Otherwise
the compressor may sustain damage.
This time will allow the oil sufficient
time to return to the compressor.
Using the fridge GB
To start the fridge and set the
correct temperature
Turn the thermostat control to the desired position.
MIN The lowest position of the thermostat control
results in the highest temperature inside the cabinet.
MAX The highest position of the thermostat control
results in the lowest temperature inside the cabinet.
H: Switched off.
Allow the cabinet to run for a period of 24 hours
whenever the temperature setting is changed. This
will allow the temperature to stabilise inside the
cabinet.
Switching off
Turn the control anti-clockwise past the click
position to "H".
Unplug the power supply plug from the wall socket
or, alternatively, remove the fuse.
Measuring the temperature
If the temperature is measured using a standard,
single thermometer, this should be put in a glass of
water centrally placed inside the cabinet. This will
reflect the temperature inside the food products. Do
not place the thermometer hanging or lying directly
on the shelf.

Cabinet interior
Dividing plate
The dividing plate separates the chiller compartment
from the fridge. The dividing plate features a grille
that can be opened and closed to control the amount
of cold air entering the chiller compartment. When
the grille is opened, the chiller compartment will
become colder.
In fridges with a single door, the dividing plate can
be moved to increase the size of the refrigerator
compartment. The dividing plate should always be
placed under the drip channel and opposite a door
compartment.
Hints and Tips GB
Saving energy
·Pay careful attention to where the cabinet is
placed. See the section "Installation". When
installed correctly, the cabinet will consume less
energy.
·Try to avoid keeping the door open for long
periods, or opening the door too frequently as
warm air will enter the cabinet, and cause the
compressor to switch on unnecessarily often.
·Ensure there are no obstructions preventing the
door from closing properly.
·It is advisable to periodically clean the
refrigeration system at the back of the appliance
with a duster or vacuum cleaner.
·Make sure the door gasket is complete and
always clean.
Protect the environment
·Hand over the cabinet packaging and discarded
fridges and freezers to a recycling station.
Contact your local city office or your closest
dealer for more information.
·When cleaning the cabinet, use a mild
washing-up detergent.
·Follow the advice in the section "Saving energy"
·The door gasket and coolant used in this
cabinet will not harm the ozone layer.
·All parts in the packaging can be recycled.
·The cabinet has been designed for easy
dismantling and subsequent recycling.
Maintenance and Cleaning GB

and bicarbonate of soda (5ml to 0,5 liter water)
Rinse and dry thoroughly.
Regularly check the door seals and wipe clean to
ensure they are clean and free from debris.
Disconnect the appliance from electricity supply.
External Cleaning

Remove the ventilation grille (see the section
"Removing the ventilation grille") and vacuum-clean
under the cabinet. Twice a year pull out the cabinet
from the wall and vacuum-clean the back of the
cabinet, the refrigerating system and the compressor.
Defrosting the fridge
The fridge is defrosted automatically every time the
compressor stops. Frost formation can be prevented
by:
·not putting warm foodstuff inside the cabinet.
·avoiding frequently opening the door or keeping
it open too long.
·do not place foodstuffs directly against the cold
cooling plate.
To Change the Light Bulb
The light is switched on automatically when the
door is opened. Before replacing the light bulb,
disconnect the power plug from the outlet.
Fold the grille backward by unsnapping the front
edge.
Use a bulb of the same type, E14 socket, maximum
ratingof25W.
When replacing the light bulb, use a bulb of the
same type as the original one. The glass must
measure at least 18 mm in diameter at the socket.
This will ensure close fitting of the bulb against the
rubber seal in the socket.
When the appliance is not in use
Disconnect the appliance from electricity supply.
Empty all foods and clean the appliance, leaving the
doors ajar to prevent unpleasant smells.
If the cabinet will be kept on, ask somebody to
check it once in a while to prevent the food inside
from spoiling in case of a power failure.
When moving the cabinet, lift it by
the front edge to avoid scratching the
floor.

Something Not Working GB
Before contacting your local Service Force Centre check the following point:
Problem Possible cause / Remedy
It is too warm inside the refrigerator. Set a lower temperature.
Put food products in the right place inside the refrigerator. See
the chapter "Temperature inside the refrigerator".
Distribute the food products to allow cold air to circulate
around them.
Make sure that the door is completely closed and that the
insulating strip is complete and clean.
The temperature where the cabinet is placed is above normal
room temperature.
It is too cold inside the refrigerator. Set a higher temperature.
There is water on the cooling plate inside
the refrigerator.
This is normal. During automatic defrosting, frost thaws on the
cooling plate.
Water is running inside the refrigerator. Clean the water drain and drain hole inside the refrigerator
using e.g. cotton swabs or a bottle cleaner brush.
Some food products could have been placed near the rear of the
appliance prevetung the water from running into the drain.
Water comes out on the floor. Place the drain hose at the back of the cabinet above the drain
bowl. See the chapter "Before using the cabinet the first time".
The compressor operates continuously. Set a higher temperature.
Make sure that the door is completely closed and that the
insulating strip is complete and clean.
The temperature where the cabinet is placed is above normal
room temperature.
Sound level in cabinet is too high. The refrigerating system will always produce some sounds. A
pulsing sound is heard when coolant is pumped inside the
cooling pipes. A ticking sound from the thermostat can be
heard when the compressor switches on and off. The sound
level varies depending on the operation of the cabinet.
If you feel the sound level is incorrect:
Make sure the pipes at the back of the cabinet not touch each
other. Carefully bend them if they do.
If the cushion spacers (between the cabinet wall and pipes)
come loose, put them back in place again.
Carefully follow the instructions in the chapter "Installing the
cabinet".
