• Remove all packaging materials from the appliance�Wash
the inside of the cabinet with lukewarm water and bicar-
bonate of soda (5ml to 0�5 liter of water)� Dry the appliance
thoroughly�

• When you use the freezer for the rst time or after defrost-
ing, set the thermostat control to the maximum position for
at least 2 hours before introducing food to be stored, and
then readjust to the normal position�
• If there is a power failure, do not open the door� Frozen
food should not be aected if the failure lasts for less than
12 hours� If the failure is longer, then the food should be
checked and either eaten immediately or cooked and then
re-frozen�
Setting the thermostat knob
The refrigerator is controlled with a thermostat knob located
inside the fridge, towards the upper right-hand corner� Turn the
knob from the STOP (0) position towards the higher numbers for
colder temperatures�The knob can be adjusted from setting 1
to 7� Higher settings on the knob (higher numbers) mean lower
temperatures (colder) in all compartments of the appliance�
Changes of the ambient temperature aect temperature in the
interior of the appliance so choose a correct setting of the tem-
perature control knob, depending on your ambient conditions�
In the STOP (0) position the appliance does not operate (the cool-
ing system is switched o), but power supply is not interrupted�
Set the thermostat knob to a middle position to achieve -18°C in
the freezer compartment�
Please Note:
If the appliance is switched o you must wait at least 5 minutes
before restarting the appliance or re-inserting the plug into the
wall outlet�This is to allow the protection device in the compres-
sor to reset�
If the compressor fails to start correctly remove the plug and wait
for 5 minutes before you try again then the compressor should
restart normally�
The storage temperature may be aected by:
• The room temperature
• How often the door is opened
• How much food is stored
• Position of the appliance
When you set the correct temperature, all these factors men-
tioned above shall be taken into account�
Temperature indicate
In order to help you get the correct adjustment of your device, it
is equipped with a temperature gauge placed in the coldest area�
For the proper storage of food in your refrigerator and in particu-
lar in the coldest area, make sure that“OK”appears in the tem-
perature indicator�
The symbol on the left side indicates the location of
the coldest area of your refrigerator� It denes the
height of this area�
If“OK”is not displayed, the average temperature in
this area will be very high�You ought to adjust the
thermostat to a colder setting� 4948
GB GB

For every modication of your thermostat, you are supposed
to wait for the stabilization of the temperature inside the unit
before proceeding, if necessary, to a new setting� Do change the
position of the thermostat gradually and wait at least 12 hours
before re-checking�
NOTE: after charging the device for fresh food or after repeated
or prolonged door openings, it is normal that the inscription“OK”
does not appear in the temperature indicator�Wait at least
12hours before readjusting the thermostat�
Shopping for frozen food
The appliance is rated as a 4 star freezer and can freeze fresh food
and store pre-frozen food�When you are buying frozen food, look
at the Storage Guidelines on the packaging�You will be able to
store each item of frozen food for the period shown against the
4star rating�
Freezing fresh food
Ensure that your freezing operations are carried out under the most
hygienic conditions as freezing alone does not improve the food�
Never put hot or even warm foodstus into the freezer�
Prior to freezing the food, food should always be covered tightly
with foil, plastic lm, placed in plastic bags or stored in airtight
containers� This will prevent food from dehydrating and to pre-
vent any strong odors of some foods transferring to milder ones�
To freeze raw meat, wrap in plastic bags or in airtight containers
and place on the lowest shelf to avoid cross contamination�
Do not allow raw meat to come into contact with cooked foods�
Fruit and vegetables should be thoroughly cleaned and placed in
the crisper�
Milk and other liquids should be sealed with lids and placed in
the bottle shelf in the door�
NOTE: The ambient temperature of the freshly stored food and
how often the door is opened aect the temperature in the
refrigerator� If required, change the thermostat temperature set-
tings�
Storing frozen food
All frozen food you purchase should be placed in the freezer
assoon as possible to avoid them from defrosting and spoiling�
All storage recommendations printed on the packaging of frozen
food by the manufacturer should always be followed�
When using the freezer for the rst time or after defrosting,
setthe thermostat knob to the maximum position for at least
2hours before introducing food to be stored, and then readjust it
to the normal position�
Energy-saving tips
Install the fridge or freezer in a cool place out of direct sunlight
and away from cookers, heaters, dishwashers or any hot air emit-
ting items�
Do not set the fridge and freezer temperatures lower than neces-
sary� Set the internal temperature within the correct range e�g�
adjust the thermostat at middle position for 4°C in the fridge
compartment and -18°C in the freezer respectively�
5150
GB GB

Let pre-cooked foods cool down before placing them in the fridge
or freezer�This will prevent the internal temperature of the fridge
from rising�
Keep your fridge full, but not over crowded, this helps reduce
“cold”air loss� Meanwhile, avoid overloading the fridge or freezer�
Try to leave about 20% free space for air circulation�
To prevent cold air escaping, limit the frequency of opening door�
When retuning from shopping, sort foods to be kept in your
fridge before opening the door� Only open the door to put food in
or take it out�
Make sure the door seal is clean and in good condition� It should
hold a piece of paper tightly in place when shut�
Defrost regularly or when ice is more than 5 mm thick�Thick ice
covering the inner sides signicantly increases energy use�
The combination of the drawers, baskets and shelves shown in
the device description is optimal for ecient energy savings�
Changing the combination proposition could alter the eciency�
Use the water dispenser
With the water dispenser, you can obtain cold water easily with-
out opening the refrigerator door�
Detach and clean water tank�
1� Hold both sides of tank to
lift out it�

Maintenance
FRIDGE DEFROSTING
The fridge defrosting process is carried out automatically every
time the compressor stops�
The defrost water is automatically routed to the drain port and
into a tray placed on the top of the compressor to the rear of the
appliance from which it evaporates�
Make sure the drain port on the fridge at the rear of the appliance
is kept clear�
FREEZER DEFROSTING
Frost will accumulate inside the freezer depending upon the
length of time during which the door is left open or the amount
of moisture introduced�
It is essential to ensure that no frost or ice is allowed to form at
places where it will aect the close tting of the door seal�
This might allow air to penetrate the cabinet, thus encouraging
continuous running of the compressor�
Thin frost formation is quite soft and can be removed with
abrush or plastic scraper� Do not use metal or sharp scrapers,
mechanical devices or other means to accelerate the defrosting
process� Remove all dislodged frost from the cabinet oor�
For the removal of thin frost it is not necessary to switch o the
appliance�
For the removal of heavy ice deposits disconnect the appliance
from the mains supply and empty the contents into cardboard
boxes and wrap in thick blankets or layers of paper to keep them
cold� Defrosting will be most eective if carried out when the
freezer is empty, and it should be carried out as quickly as possible�
An increase in temperature of frozen food packages during de-
frosting will shorten the storage life� Provided that the contents
are well wrapped and placed in a cool area, they should keep for
several hours�
Examine the contents when replacing them in the freezer and if
some of the packages have thawed out�
After defrosting is nished clean the inside with a solution of warm
water with a little bicarbonate of soda and then dry thoroughly�
Wash all removable parts in the same way and reassemble�
Reconnect the appliance to the mains supply and leave for 2 to
3hours on setting number 7 before introducing the food back into
the freezer and setting the thermostat to your normal setting�
NOISE FROM YOUR APPLIANCE
You may notice some rather unusual noises�The noises are caused
by circulation of refrigerant in the cooling system� It has become
more pronounced since the introduction of CFC free gases�This is
not a fault and will not aect the performance of your fridge�
