TRANSPORT
The appliance must always be transported upright. The packaging is meant to pro-
tect the appliance in transit; avoid damaging it during transport.
If there is no choice but to transport the appliance on its side, place it so that the door
cannot open, to prevent damage to it. Restore the appliance to upright position as
soon as possible. After spending time horizontal, the appliance must remain upright
for at least 4 hours before being plugged in and powered on, to give the refrigerant
time to settle. Failing to do so risks permanent damage to the appliance, as well as a
hazardous operating situation.
The appliance is heavy; we recommend at least two people handle it. Avoid carrying
the appliance by the upper frame, the door, etc.
BEFORE USE
Unpacking
Carefully unpack the appliance and remove any tape, stickers, foil, etc.
Selecting a Spot
Place the appliance on a hard, level surface within reach of the mains socket. To avoid
excess noise and vibration, do not install on carpets, rugs or similar ooring.
The appliance is designed for domestic, indoor use. Do not install outside or in any
spot exposed to rain, snow, moisture or other weather effects.
Level the appliance if necessary. Use the adjustable feet. Screw the feet in or out to
change their height. Leveling is important to prevent excessive vibration and noise.
The refrigerant mass is specied on the appliance rating plate.
Provide adequate space for air to circulate around the appliance: at least 50 mm (2 in)

EN

Do not place the appliance near stoves, heaters, or other heat sources. Avoid exposing
the appliance to direct sunlight.
Do not install in damp or dusty rooms. Do not cover the vents.
The appliance may interfere with radio and television signals. It should be placed suf-
ciently far from their receivers.
Handle Installation
When installing handles, proceed as follows:
1. On the side where the handle is to be mounted, remove the bolthole covers.
2. Hold the handle against the door edge so that the bolt holes in the handle align
with those in the door.
3. Use the supplied bolts to bolt on the handle.

the other side.

EN
EN - 10
Cleaning Before Use
Before rst use and after prolonged disuse, clean the food compartments and trays
with water, either pure or with some white vinegar. Do not use detergents, solvents,
hydrocarbon cleaners, etc. These might irreparably damage the nish.
Settle-Down Time
Once installed and cleaned, wait at least 1 hour before plugging the appliance in. This
will give the refrigerant time to settle in the cooling circuit.
Plugging In
Plug the power cord into a properly grounded mains socket. The appliance must be
grounded. The voltage specied on the appliance rating plate must match your mains
voltage. In case of doubt, consult your power company or a qualied electrician.
USE
Setting Fridge Temperature
Temperature setting is by thermostat. Turn the thermostat knob to set temperature
from “1” (warmest) to “7” (coldest).
Turning the thermostat to “0” turns off the appliance.
The table below suggests thermostat settings for various ambient temperature
ranges. These are only indicative; you should set the thermostat to whatever ts your
needs.

Setting the thermostat to “7” will run the compressor continuously regardless of tem-
perature. This setting is suitable for rst use after purchase or a long period of disuse,
or when cooling or freezing larger amounts of fresh food. We do not recommend
keeping the thermostat at “7” permanently. This may lead to excessive icing or partial
freezing of the contents of the fridge compartment.
The table below gives the approximate temperatures in the freezer and fridge com-
partments at different thermostat settings.

Note:
The appliance may not work properly when sited in a particularly warm
room or when the door is frequently opened.
Open Door Warning
If the fridge door remains open for more than 60 seconds, the LED lights will ash
three times, then glow for 5 seconds. This will repeat until the door is closed.
Storing Food
Air cooled by the compressor circulates throughout the appliance interior, making
different areas of the interior somewhat different temperatures, and therefore better
suited for storing different kinds of food.
Store foodstuffs in their original packaging or in airtight containers to prevent odor
and contamination of the food.
Use the fridge area to store non-frozen foods, such as cooked meals, beverages, eggs,
dairy, etc. Use the tray to store fruits and vegetables. Use the freezer area to store ice
cream, frozen foods, etc.

EN

Shopping Tips
• Reduce waste by only buying as much as you know you can use.
• Always check the “best before” date printed on the packaging.
• Check packaging integrity.
• Check appearance and smell, particularly with fruits and vegetables. Only buy
fruits and vegetables of awless appearance.
• Save frozen foods for the last items you take when shopping, and keep them in
insulated bags on the way home.
• Always check the integrity of the packaging on packaged foods.
• The freezer can only freeze a certain weight of fresh food per 24 hours of operation.
You can nd this value on its rating plate. Minimize door opening when freezing
fresh foods.
• Before loading fresh food to be frozen, and particularly before loading already-
frozen food, always check that the interior is sufciently cold. Otherwise, frozen
food might thaw before the interior cools to freezing.
• When freezing freshly prepared food, let it cool to room temperature before
loading.
• Pack fresh foods in packaging sold for the purpose. Label the packages with food
name, weight, and date of freezing. Packets should be dry when loaded.
Food Storage Tips
• Regularly check the condition of all stored food; use foodstuffs before they go bad.
• Place the most frequently used items up front to reduce rummaging. This will
allow you to close the door again sooner.
• Do not re-freeze defrosted or partly defrosted food.
• Defrosted meat should be heat-treated, not eaten raw.
• Do not overload the fridge. Keep some amount of free space between stored items
to allow the cold air to circulate throughout.
• Let food cool to room temperature before loading in the fridge.
• Minimize door opening frequency.
• Only store foods intended for refrigeration / freezing. Some foods, particularly
certain fruits and vegetables, do not need to be refrigerated.
• Store food in original packaging or airtight containers to keep it from becoming
contaminated or developing a foul odor.
• Do not place food packets in direct contact with the interior liner of the freezer

EN
EN - 12 EN - 13
area. Do not place water-rich foods close to the freezer area back plate to keep
them from freezing stuck.
• Do not load liquid-lled glassware or canned beverages into the freezer. Water-
based liquids increase in volume as they freeze, potentially destroying inexible
containers such as glass or can aluminum.
CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
Keep the appliance clean. Food residue may accumulate in the fridge and emit a foul
odor. We recommend cleaning the shelves and trays at least once a month.
Warning:
Do not immerse the appliance or its power cord in water or other liquids.
Routine Maintenance
Remove all food from the fridge (not the freezer), then remove the shelves and trays.
Wash them in warm water with some dish detergent; rinse and wipe dry.
Clean the fridge interior with a clean towel slightly dipped in clean, lukewarm water.
Wipe dry.
Wipe the door gasket with a soft cloth slightly dipped in warm water.
Wipe the appliance exterior with a soft cloth slightly dipped in warm water with some
dish detergent.
Dust off the back of the appliance. You may also use a vacuum cleaner with a brush
attachment on low power.
To prevent water from de-icing from overowing into the fridge interior, regularly
clean the drainage port found at the rear of the fridge section. Use the supplied clean-
ing tool and the procedure shown in the gure below.
Warning:
Do not clean with harsh detergents, alkali, solvents, hydrocarbon
cleaners, etc. Only use a soft sponge or towel. Do not use scrapers or
other hard tools that might scratch the nish.
Warning:
Do not clean with a steam cleaner.
De-Icing
During use, certain parts of the appliance build up ice. This needs to be removed

EN
EN - 14
regularly to prevent deterioration of the appliance’s function and cooling and power
efciency.
Proceed as follows:
5. Turn off the appliance. Set the thermostat to “0”, then unplug the appliance from
the mains.
6. Remove all trays. Pack food in old newspapers or other insulation and store in a
cool place.
7. Keep the door open. Place a suitable water catchment vessel in the interior.
8. For faster de-icing, you may place a bowl of hot water inside as well.
9. You may also use a plastic scraper to manually remove ice.
10. Once the freezer has been de-iced, wipe it dry with a clean towel.
11. Plug the appliance back in and set the thermostat to your preferred setting. We
recommend keeping the thermostat at 7 for the rst 12 hours after de-icing.
12. Reload trays with food, then return them into the appliance.
Warning:
Never de-ice with metal tools, hair driers, fans, or other power tools.
Lighting Replacement
The LED lighting in the food compartment may only be replaced by an authorized
service technician. Never replace the light yourself. Contact an authorized service
centre instead. The light source installed in this appliance is rated G on the EU energy
efciency scale.
Long-Term Power-Down
When not using the appliance, keep it unplugged from the mains. Clean the interior,
including the freezer, as described above.
Leave the door open to prevent a stale odor from developing inside.

CHOOSING DOOR HINGE SIDE
We recommend getting a second person to help with switching the door hinge from
one side to the other. You will need a at-head screwdriver, Phillips-head screwdriver,
and a wrench.
To remove the door, you will need to tilt the appliance back somewhat. We recom-
mend placing the appliance so that it can be tilted back against a wall, to prevent it
from falling over during work.
Make sure not to lose any of the parts being removed; you will need all of them later.
To avoid damage to the cooling circuit, do not lower the appliance into a horizontal
position.
1. Check that the appliance is unplugged.

EN
EN - 16
2. Use a at-head screwdriver to pop off the top hinge
cover plate.
3. Unbolt the top hinge.
4. Use the at-head screwdriver to pop off the bolthole
cover on the other side.
5. Move the hinge pin cover from the left to the right side
of the appliance. Then lift off the top door and set it
down on a soft surface to avoid scratching.
6. Unbolt the middle hinge, then lift off the bottom door
and set it down on a soft surface to avoid scratching.
7. Move the middle hinge bolthole covers from left to right.

EN
EN - 16 EN - 17
8. Carefully tilt the appliance back, then unbolt the bottom
hinge and remove the adjustable feet.
9. Release and remove the bottom hinge pin. Mirror-ip the hinge, then use wrench
to screw the hinge pin back in.
10. Mount the bottom hinge on the left and the adjustable
foot backplate on the right. Then screw in both feet.
11. Set the appliance upright and attach the bottom door
to the bottom hinge. Make sure the bottom hinge pin
sits well in the door’s pinhole. Move the middle hinge
bolthole cover from left to right.
12. Install the middle hinge.

EN
EN - 18
13. Attach the top door and install the top hinge.
14. Attach the top hinge bolthole cover and cover plate.
15. Check the door seal for signs of deformation. If
deformed, remove the seal band, turn it around, then
