WHERE TO START?
Choosing a Location
Choose a place for your refrigerator. We recommend a large space that can be kept clean
and dry to prevent oxidation
Positioning
To ensure that the refrigerator works correctly, it’s important that air can circulate.
We recommend the following minimum surrounding distances:
• 5 cm on both sides, 10 cm at the back, 10 cm on top.
• Don’t position it near heat-generating appliances such as
hobs, heaters, or in areas exposed to sunlight. This could
overwork the refrigerator, making it less efficient and
increasing energy consumption.
• Keep clearance as described above.
Observing these distances and recommendations will
guarantee you a fully-functioning product, as it will prevent
the components from direct contact with walls and furniture,
thus avoiding unpleasant sounds.
Installation
You must remove all packaging including: tape, cardboard,
plastic, and/or Styrofoam (EPS).
THE REFRIGERATOR MUST NOT BE CONNECTED
TO AN ENERGY SOURCE BEFORE INSTALLATION
IS COMPLETE.
IMPORTANT:
Let the refrigerator stand for 6 to 8 hours before connecting it to allow the cooling
gas and the compressor oil to settle.

Levelling
To level the refrigerator use the two
levelling screws found on the base at
the front.
Make sure that the refrigerator is placed
on level ground. Adjust the levelling
screws to ensure that the refrigerator
doesn’t move during day-to-day use.
Turn the screws anti-clockwise to lift the
front of the refrigerator and clockwise
to lower it.
The front part of the refrigerator should
be a little higher than the back causing
it to tilt backwards slightly. Levelling
requires two people; one to tilt the unit
backwards and the other to turn the
screws.
To level it, lift the front by turning the
screws until there is a 48 mm (1.9 in) gap
between the oor and the base of the
refrigerator, as indicated in the gure
on the right.
OBSERVE THE FOLLOWING WHEN INSTALLING:
IMPORTANT: before plugging the refrigerator:
1. Leave the refrigerator to stand for 6 to 8 hours:
2. Clean the interior of your refrigerator with a cloth or soft sponge, and a neutral
soap or a bicarbonate of soda solution.
3. Plug it in to the correct outlet.
4. Leave it on, empty and closed, for 4 hours before putting food inside.
5. Avoid opening the door before optimum temperature has been reached.
6. If you want to move your refrigerator to another location, disconnect it.
When it has been repositioned repeat steps 4 and 5.
In the case of physical, mental or sensorial diculties (including children), or if you
don’t have sucient experience or knowledge to handle this product, you will need
the assistance of a capable adult to ensure safety.
Children should always be supervised. This product is not a toy.

Minimum Electrical Requirements:
220/240V - 50Hz for residential use, ideally protected by a fuse or circuit breaker.
ELECTRICAL INSTALLATION:
1.Install your refrigerator to the closest outlet. The use of an
extension cord is not recommended
2.Where possible, avoid connecting other electrical appliances
to the same outlet as your refrigerator while it’s in use. This
will prevent uctuations in voltage and overheating of the
refrigerator.
3.To connect and disconnect your refrigerator, take the cord
by the plug and remove it. Never pull on the cable.
4.Your refrigerator comes equipped with a type “Y” polarised
power cord, which includes a grounding cable. Do not
remove the ground prong by using a two-prong adaptor,
or cut the cable to replace the original plug for a two-prong
plug.
5.If you live in a region where there are voltage and frequency
variations, don’t connect your refrigerator into the outlet.
You must install an automatic voltage regulator with a
minimum power of 500 Watts or 1000 Watts. Make sure
the regulator can handle your region’s variations in tension.
6. If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by
the manufacter, its service agent or similarly qualied
persons in order to avoid a hazard.
IMPORTANT:
Ignoring the above-mentioned advice places the
responsibility for any personal or material risk
entirely with the customer.

NOTE: internal temperature can be aected by factors such as the location
of the refrigerator, the room temperature, and how often the doors are opened.
Adjust the temperature controls accordingly to compensate for these factors.
Temperature Control
The internal temperature of the freezer compartments and the cooler can be regulated to
allow them to be adjusted for suitable conservation of food.
When using your refrigerator for the rst time, we recommend maintaining the original
factory positions (in mid-position).
Let it stand for 4 to 6 hours to allow the temperature to stabilise.
If you need to change the temperature after this period you can adjust it with the controls.
Troubleshooting IntroductionKnow your Refrigerator

Fresh Food Temperature Control
Use this knob to adjust the overall performance of your refrigerator (fresh food and freezer
compartment together). The refrigerator control has temperature graduations for both
compartments that vary from minimum (least cold) to maximum (coldest). If necessary,
adjust the control and monitor the food for a couple of hours.
You can adjust it until you obtain the desired refrigeration level temperature. You will have
to wait between 4 and 6 hours until the refrigerator stabilizes.
Freezer Temperature Control
Use this control only if you prefer to change
temperature of freezer compartment and leaving
the fresh food compartment unchanged.
Your refrigerator has an additional control that
regulates the air ow between the freezer and
the fresh food compartment It’s calibrated in
the factory to ensure optimum function, so we
recommend you don’t alter its position.
If you wish to adjust it, put a coin into the central slot. By turning it to the right you’ll
generate greater air ow to the freezer, accelerating the freezing process.
However, you’ll notice that the fresh food compartment will take longer to reach the correct
temperature. By turning the control to the left, the air ow to the fresh food compartment
will increase, delaying the freezing process according to the following guide:
IMPORTANT:
Changing the position of the air regulator will alter the time it takes the fresh food
compartment to reach the correct temperature but not the temperature itself.
NOTE: Do not overll the refrigerator. Leave space between food and use
the shelves provided to hold everything. This will facilitate the necessary air
circulation and allow the proper cooling of food.

1. The room temperature inuences the performance of your refrigerator. The
higher the external temperature, the colder the selected temperature in
the fresh food compartment should be.
2. We recommend selecting a lower temperature if you frequently open the
door.
3. When placing your food inside the refrigerator, do not to block the airways.
This will allow adequate circulation and keep the inside temperature stable
and uniform, thus only freezing the items in the freezer.
4. Use the top compartment to freeze food, conserving it for longer. Use the
lower compartment to refrigerate food.
5. If your refrigerator has a Express Chill Zone, you should take into account
that some fresh fruit and vegetables are cold-sensitive and it is not a good
idea to keep them in this compartment.

HOW IT WORKS
First, place the food and drink that you want to cool rapidly into the Express Chill
Zone. Make sure to lower the bottom hatch of the Express Chill Zone before closing
the freezer door.
To activate the Express Chill Zone, press the Express Chill Zone button on the display
a number of times until you reach the desired run time. 5 seconds after setting is
complete, it will start to work.
A countdown clock on the display screen will show the remaining time. When the time
is up, an alarm will sound, the countdown clock will read “0” and the button light will
ash for a minute, indicating that your food and drink are ready to be taken out. The
alarm will sound until you press the Express Chill Zone button.
The Express Chill Zone Function will deactivate automatically:
• If you keep pressed the Express Chill Zone button, thereby exiting the programme
before the required time has elapsed.
• If you press the Express Chill Zone button once the programme is completed and
the alarm is sounding.
• Once the cooling time has elapsed, the alarm has sounded for one minute and
stopped
TABLE OF RECOMMENDED CHILLING TIMES
NOTE: Times vary depending on the initial temperature of your foods and
drinks. If upon programme completion, the items haven’t reached the desired
temperature, you can add additional minutes using the display. The Express
Chill Zone can be reprogrammed after 5 minutes have passed since last use. If
you decide to cool your items for longer, be alert for when the alarm rings to
indicate the foods and drinks are ready and remove them from the
compartment. This will prevent them from freezing, WHICH IS ESPECIALLY
IMPORTANT FOR CARBONATED BEVERAGES.
The following table outlines the time required to cool room temperature drinks
(25°C to 30°C) in the Express Chill Zone:
TIP: If you use the fresh food compartment
for beer and soda, you can bring them to the
perfect temperature before your guests arrive
using the Express Chill Zone. It usually takes
10 to 15 minutes to cool them from 8° to 0°.
IMPORTANT:
You should not store carbonated drinks with the intention of freezing them in the
Express Chill Zone. This programme should only be used to cool them.
DO NOT exceed the recommended times. Your alarm will sound for a minute
after the time has lapsed, which is when you need to take your items out of the
compartment. Ignoring the above-mentioned advice places the responsibility for
any consequences entirely with the customer.

REMOVAL OF ICE
1. After a while, your ice cubes will be ready for
use. To remove them, pull the handle slowly
towards you until it’s fully down. At this point
it will be necessary to pull the handle a little
more forcefully until you hear the ice fall into
the lower compartment of your SMART FILL ICE
FACTORY.
2. This compartment can hold up 3 complete
releases of the ice-tray. To remove the ice,
simply lift and pull the storage box that you will
nd in the lower part. This box is designed to be
brought wherever you wish. To make more ice,
repeat the process.
NOTE: The cylinder can only hold one
load at a time. Before repeating the
process, make sure that the tray is empty.
NOTE: The ice produced may vary in
size.
CLEANING YOUR SMART FILL ICE FACTORY
When cleaning your Smart Fill Ice Factory it is imperative that you only use a soft sponge
with water and a neutral soap. Afterwards, leave it to dry.
DO NOT use a steel wool sponge or detergent to clean the SFIF (especially the ice-bucket), as
this could aect how it works, change how it looks, and aect the avour of your ice cubes.
CLEANING THE CYLINDER
Only use a soft sponge with water and a neutral soap to clean. Afterwards, leave it to dry.
Don’t use steel wool sponges or detergents, knives or forks as these could scratch or damage
the central valve. If there’s frozen water inside the cylinder, let it melt or use tepid water to
speed up the process.

pull the handle all the way down. You will feel
resistance at this point, but you need to pull
a little more so that the ice-tray twists and
releases the ice into the lower compartment.
Once this point has been reached, the process
