CAUTION! The fridge is heavy—transport it with care! To avoid back or other injury,
we recommend you ask someone for help or use a mechanical aid when moving it.
Getting it ready for use
Before you start installing your new top mount refrigerator, wipe the interior surfaces
and accessories with a well wrung out cloth moistened with lukewarm water with a
little baking soda added. This will remove any dust from transit and storage and help
remove the typical smell of a brand new product. Dry thoroughly.
Need the doors reversed?
Your new top mount refrigerator has the capability of the doors opening from the
right or left side. If your set-up requires reversal of the door swing, please follow the
instructions on pages 19–21 of the supplied manual.
Where to install
The fridge is designed for freestanding use. The floor must be strong, sturdy and
level—adjust the levelling feet, if necessary. Avoid areas where the fridge would be
exposed to direct sunlight, heat, extreme cold ambient temperatures or excessive
moisture and high humidity. Installing it in the coolest area of the room will save energy
consumption and running costs. Allow at least 10 cm clear space at the back and 5 cm
at the sides so air can circulate freely around the fridge.
For comprehensive installation instructions, please consult the manual.

Settling
Before plugging in your new fridge, let it stand upright
for at least 4 hours to allow the refrigerant gases to settle
into the compressor.
Power connection
Plug in the fridge and secure the power supply cord
behind the unit, making sure the plug is accessible after
installation.
First use: cool down
When first starting up, and after a period out of use,
allow the unit to cool down on the coldest settings (in both compartments) for at
least 2–3 hours before placing perishable food in the fridge.

This appliance has two temperature controls, one in
the freezer and one in the fridge compartment, so you
can adjust the temperature separately according to the
requirements of the foods stored in each compartment.
The controls are located on the interior back walls of the
fridge and freezer compartments.
Turn the control clockwise towards COLDEST to lower the
temperature and anticlockwise towards COLD to increase
the temperature in the compartment. A middle setting on
COLDER should be appropriate for normal usage.

The freezer compartment is equipped
with a glass shelf and door balcony
for convenient access and organised
storage. It is suitable for freezing
domestic quantities of fresh food and
long-term storage (up to three months)
of frozen food.
The fridge compartment is suitable for
short-term storage of all your fresh food.
The walls of the fridge are equipped
with a series of runners so that you can
position the glass shelves to suit your
individual storage requirements.
The door balconies in the fridge
compartment are suitable for storage of
food and drink bottles, cans and jars.
They may be placed at different heights:
gradually pull a balcony up until it is free,
then reposition it as required.
The easy-to-pull-out crisper drawer is
covered with a glass shelf to help you
keep your fruit and vegetables fresh.
