Position the appliance in a dry atmosphere and out of direct sunlight.
Do not position next to a cooker or other sources of heat, i.e. radiator.
This appliance should not be sited in a cold atmosphere, i.e. garage or
shed. Doing so may cause the freezer unit to underfreeze.
If positioned next to another fridge or freezer, leave a minimum gap of 2cm
between the appliances in order to avoid condensation.
A clearance of 50mm should be left above the appliance. If this cannot be
achieved you should ensure a clearance of 25mm is maintained on each side of

Section 2. Safety Advice
Please read this booklet thoroughly before installing and switching on the
appliance. The manufacturer accepts no responsibility for incorrect installation
and usage.
If this appliance is to replace an old refrigerator with a lock, as a safety measure
break or remove the lock and/or door before disposal.
Your old appliances contain insulation gases and refrigerant that must be
disposed of correctly. Please ensure that the refrigerant circuit is not damaged
before the appliance is taken away for correct disposal in line with current
legislation. If there is any doubt contact your Local Authority for instructions.
This appliance may contain the refrigerant isobutene (R600a). This is a natural gas
with a high level of environmental compatibility; however, caution is required as
isobutene is a flammable gas. It is essential to ensure that refrigerant tubes are not
damaged during transportation and the installation of the appliance. In the event
that the refrigerant circuit is damaged, avoid naked flames or sources of ignition and
ventilate the room in which the appliance is situated.
Do not damage the refrigerant circuit.
The appliance is not intended for use by persons (including children) with

instructions and ensure that the electrical circuit is not overloaded as this could
cause overheating.
Do not twist or bend the cables, and keep them away from hot surfaces.
Do not plug ın or unplug this appliance with wet hands.
Following installation make sure that the power cable is not trapped underneath
the appliance.
Ensure the appliance is left in an upright position for at least 4 hours before you

Section 3. Operating the Appliance
3.1. Switching on the Appliance
Allow the appliance to stand upright for a minimum of 4 hours before you switch it
on.
Plug in the appliance and switch on at the mains supply.
Set the thermostat control to the required setting as detailed in the Temperature
Control section (3.2.).
Leave the appliance for approximately 4 hours for the correct temperature to be
reached.
3.2. Temperature Control
The temperature selector knob is located on the interior light unit inside the fridge
compartment (see Description of the Appliance on page 2).
Setting “0ff”: Unit Off
Setting “1”: Unit On – Warmest Temperature
Setting “4” to “5”: Normal Operation (adequate for most situations)
Setting “7”: Coldest Temperature
Important!
During high ambient temperatures e.g. on hot summer days, it may be necessary to set
the thermostat to the coldest setting (position 7). This may cause the compressor to run
continuously in order to maintain a low temperature in the cabinet.
3.3. Storing & Freezing Food in the Freezer
This appliance has a four star freezer that is suitable for the long-term storage of frozen
food items. It can also be used for freezing and storing fresh food items.
You should always follow the storage guidelines printed on each food producers
packaging, however the following information is provided as a general guide for the
maximum storage life of frozen items:
Fresh Meat and Poultry – up to 12 months
Cooked Meats – up to 2 months
Fresh Fish – up to 6 months
Fruit and Vegetables – up to 12 months
Bread and Cakes – up to 6 months

3.4. Normal Operating Sounds
You may hear faint gurgling or bubbling sounds when the refrigerant is pumped to the
cooling system and through the coils or tubing at the rear of the appliance. When the
compressor is in operation you may hear a slight whirring sound or pulsating noise. The
thermostat controls the operation of the compressor, and you may hear a slight click as
it cycles in and out.
3.5. Energy Saving Advice
Do not install the appliance close to sources of heat, such as a cooker,
dishwasher or radiator.
Locate the appliance in a cool well-ventilated room and make sure that the air
vents are clear
Try to avoid keeping the doors open for a long time, warm air will enter the
cabinet and may cause a build up of ice as well as affecting the energy
consumption. Ensure there are no obstructions preventing the doors from closing
properly
Ensure that the door seals are clean and there are no tears or splits.
Keep the most perishable foods, (those with a short shelf-life, such as
cooked meats), in the coldest part of the fridge. The Salad Crisper Box is
the warmest part of your fridge and should be used for vegetables, salads and
fruits etc. (see Description of Appliance on Page 2)
Do not overload the fridge: the cooling air that circulates to keep the
fridge cold gets blocked and pockets of warm air form.
Do not put hot food into the fridge or freezer – let it cool down first.
3.6. In the Event of a Power Failure
If there is a power failure, keep the doors closed. When the power has been restored
the appliance will start to operate but it may take some time to achieve the pre-set
operating temperature. Check the condition of your stored food items and liquids.

Section 4. Maintenance
Before any maintenance or cleaning work is carried out, DISCONNECT the
appliance from the ELECTRICITY supply.
4.1. Internal Cleaning
Clean the interior and accessories with warm water and bicarbonate of soda (5ml to 0.5
litre of water). Rinse and dry thoroughly. Do not use detergents, abrasive powders,
highly perfumed cleaning products, wax polishes or cleaning products containing bleach
or alcohol.
4.2. External Cleaning
Wash the outer cabinet with warm soapy water. Do NOT use abrasive products. There
may be sharp edges on the underside of the product, so care should be taken when
cleaning. Once or twice a year dust the rear of the appliance and the compressor at the
back of the appliance, with a brush or vacuum cleaner, as an accumulation of dust will
affect the performance of the appliance and cause increased energy consumption.
4.3. Defrosting
This is a Frost Free appliance, so under normal operating conditions you should not
need to de-frost the fridge or freezer unit. However, if you inadvertently leave the
freezer door ajar for long periods frost may build up inside the compartment. If this
happens, please take the following action:
If ice build up in the freezer exceeds 3-5mm, empty the contents and switch off the
appliance, leave the door open and allow the ice to melt. Place the frozen foods items
in a cool-bag or wrap them in thick newspaper. Do not use sharp objects to scrape
the ice away. Clean and dry the interior, close the door and turn on the power to the
appliance. When the power has been restored the appliance will start to operate but it
may take some time to achieve the pre-set operating temperature.
4.4. When the appliance is not in use
When the appliance is not in use for long periods, remove the contents, disconnect
from the electricity supply and clean the appliance, leaving the door ajar until you wish
to use the appliance again.
4.5. Changing the Interior Light
Switch off the power supply to the appliance
