Switching On Your Unit
Setting“Off: UnitOff Setting“Min”: Less Cool Temperature
Setting“Med” or “MID”: Normal Operation(adequate for most
situations) Setting“Max”: Coolest Temperature
• During high ambient temperatures e.g. on hot summer
days. It may be necessary to set the thermostat to the
Coolest setting(position“Max”).This may cause the
compressor running continuously in order to maintain a low
temperature in the cabinet.
• For the first time you install your refrigerator, set the
thermostat knob at “Med”. Give your refrigerator time to
cool down completely before adding food. It is the best
to wait 24 hours before adding food. The thermostat knob
controls the temperature. When the thermostat control
knob is set to OFF, the refrigerator will not be running.
Noise Inside the Unit!
You may notice that your unit makes some unusual noises.
Most of these are perfectly normal, but you should be aware
of them!
These noises are caused by the circulation of the refrigerant
liquid in the cooling system. It has become more pronounced
since the introduction of CFC free gases. This is not a fault
and will not affect the performance of your unit. This is the
compressor motor working, as it pumps the refrigerant
around the system.
Tips for Keeping Food in the Unit
• Cooked meats/fishes should always be stored on a shelf
above raw meats/fishes to avoid bacterial transfer. Keep
raw meats/fishes in a container which is large enough to
collect juices and cover it properly. Place the container on
the lowest shelf.
• Leave space around your food, to allow air to circulate
inside the unit. Ensure all parts of the unit are kept cool.
• To prevent transfer of favours and drying out, pack or cover
the food separately. Fruit and vegetables do not need to be
wrapped.
• Always let pre-cooked food cool down before you put in
the unit. This will help to maintain the internal temperature
of the unit.
• To prevent cold air escaping from the unit, try to limit the
number of times you open the door. We recommend that
you only open the door when you need to put food in or
take food out.

Cleaning the Interior and the Exterior of
the Unit
• Remove all the shelves and the salad bin. To remove the
salad bin first remove the lower door shelf.

bicarbonate soda and then rinse with warm water using
a“wrung-out” sponge or cloth. Wipe completely dry before
replacing the shelves and salad bin.
• Use a damp cloth to clean the exterior, and then wipe with a
standard furniture polish. Make sure that the door is closed
to avoid the polish getting on the magnetic door seal or
inside the unit.
• The grille of the condenser at the back of the unit and the
adjacent components can be vacuumed using a soft brush
attachment.
Cleaning Tips
Condensation may appear on the outside of the unit. This
