Energy Saving Tips  
1- Ensure your appliance is installed  
in a well ventilated area.  
2- Ensure the time between buying  
chilled/frozen food and placing them in  
your appliance is kept to a minimum,  
particularly in summer. We recommend  
you use a cool bag or a special carrier  
bag to carry frozen food.  
3- Do not leave the door (s) of your  
appliance open longer than necessary  
and ensure they are closed properly  
after each opening.  
4- Defrost frozen food in the fridge  
compartment, so that frozen food acts  
as an ice pack to assist cooling in the  
fridge.

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS  
1.The space in the room where the  
appliance is installed must not be  
smaller than 10 cubic metres.  
2.Do not put your fridge freezer in a  
cold room where the temperature is  
likely to go below +5 degrees C (41  
degrees F) during night time and/or  
especially in winter.  
This fridge freezer has been designed  
to operate in ambient temperatures  
between +5 and +32 degrees C (41  
and 90 degrees F) Therefore if the  
appliance is installed in an unheated/  
cold room (eg: conservatory/annex/  
shed/garage etc) then the appliance  
will not operate causing the freezer  
compartment to run warmer and as a  
result the storage time of frozen food  
may be reduced.  
3.Do not place the appliance near  
cookers, radiators or in direct sunlight  
as this will cause your appliance to  
work harder. If installed next to a  
source of heat or freezer, maintain  
the following minimum side clearances:  
5.The fridge/freezer should be located  
on a smooth surface. The two front  
feet  
can be adjusted as required. To  
ensure that your appliance is standing  
upright adjust the two front feet by  
turning clockwise or anti-clockwise,  
until the product is in firm contact with  
the floor. Correct adjustment of feet  
avoids excessive vibration and noise.  
6.Refer to cleaning and care section  
to prepare your appliance for use.  
7.A special receptacle is supplied to  
store the mains plug during transit.  
The receptacle is fixed at the back of  
the cabinet, on the left hand side of  
the compressor. (See diagram) Gently

Final Check  
8. “Do not load the appliance  
immediately it is switched on. Wait until  
the correct storage temperature has  
been reached. We recommend that you  
check the temperature with an accurate  
thermometer (see; Temperature Control  
and Adjustment)”  
9. When the freezer reaches the  
desired temperature the freezer fan will  
stop. When the freezer fan is on, the  
noise will be louder when the freezer  
door is opened.  
10. Avoid spillage of food particularly  
small items like rice, peas, beans  
through the fan guard as they may  
cause the cooling system to block and  
therefore operate less efficiently.  
Before you start using the fridge/  
freezer check that:  
1. The feet have been adjusted for  
perfect levelling.  
2. The interior is dry and air can  
circulate freely at the rear of the cabinet.  
3. Clean the interior as recommended  
under “CLEANING AND CARE.”  
4. Insert the plug into the wall socket  
and switch on the electricity supply.  
• When the door is open the fridge  
interior light will come on.  
5. You will hear a noise as the  
compressor starts up. The liquid and  
gases sealed within the refrigeration  
system may also give rise to noise,  
whether the compressor is running or  
not which is quite normal.  
“Due to operation of the fan inside  
the frost free freezer compartment,  
overall noise level is slightly higher  
in comparison to non-frost free  
appliances. This is quite normal and is  
not a fault.”  
6. Set the setting knob half way  
between min and max.  
7. Front edges of the cabinet may  
feel warm. This is normal. These areas  
are designed to be warm to avoid  
condensation.  
EN

5 Using your refrigerator  
TEMPERATURE CONTROL AND  
ADJUSTMENT  
compartments are kept to the desired  
temperature.  
Remember you must take your reading  
very quickly since the thermometer  
temperature will rise very rapidly after  
you remove it from the freezer.  
Please remember each time the door  
is opened cold air escapes and the  
internal temperature rises. Therefore  
never leave the door open and ensure  
it is closed immediately after food is put  
in or removed.  
Operating temperatures are controlled  
by the thermostat knob (Fig. 1) and  
may be set at any position between  
1 and 5, 5 being the coldest position.  
Towards 5 you will obtain a colder  
fridge temperature and vice versa.  
To switch off the appliance completely:  
Turn the thermostat knob to “0” (Zero)  
position.  
“Closed” setting will keep humidity  
inside the salad crisper.  
“Open” setting will increase air  
circulation thereby reduce humidity in  
the salad crisper.  
If you wish to store food in the salad  
crisper for longer , you should keep  
the humidity adjustment knobs in the  
closed position.  
The average temperature inside the  
fridge depends on the following factors:  
• Ambient temperature in the room  
(seasonal changes)  
STORING FRESH FOOD  
Your freezer is suitable for the long-  
term storage of commercially frozen  
foods and also can be used to freeze  
and store fresh food.  
If there is a power failure do not open  
the door. Frozen food should not be  
affected if the failure lasts for less than  
23 hrs. If the failure is longer, then the  
food should be checked and either  
eaten immediately or cooked and then  
refrozen.  
FREEZING FRESH FOOD  
Please  
observe  
the  
following  
instructions to obtain the best results.  
Do not freeze too large a quantity at  
any one time. The quality of the food  
is best preserved when it is frozen  
right through to the core as quickly as  
possible.  
Do not exceed the freezing capacity  
of your appliance in 24 h which is 4.5  
kg (11lb)  
Placing warm food into the freezer  
compartment causes the refrigeration  
compressor to operate continuously  
until the food is frozen solid. This can  
temporarily lead to excessive cooling of  
• Frequency of door opening  
• Placing hot food inside the product  
• Position of the product inside the  
room (being exposed to sun light)

the refrigeration compartment.  
B) FREEZER  
When freezing fresh food turn the  
thermostat knob towards 5. Small  
quantities of food up to 1/2 kg. (1 lb)  
can be frozen without having to rotate  
the temperature control knob.  
You may place fresh food to be frozen  
in any part of the freezer.  
Take special care not to mix already  
frozen food and fresh food.  
COMPARTMENT  
Defrosting is very easy and without  
mess thanks to a special defrost  
collection basin.  
Defrost twice a year or when a frost  
layer of around 7 mm (1/4") has formed.  
To start defrosting procedure switch  
off the appliance at the socket outlet  
and pull out the mains plug.  
All food should be wrapped in several  
layers of newspaper and stored in a  
cool place (e.g. fridge or larder).  
Containers full of warm water may be  
placed carefully in the freezer to speed  
up the defrosting.  
Do not use pointed or sharp edged  
objects such as knives, forks to remove  
the frost.  
Never use hairdryers, electrical heaters  
and other similar electrical appliances  
for defrosting.  
When defrosting has finished, sponge  
out any defrost water which collects at  
the bottom of the freezer and dry the  
interior thoroughly. Insert the plug in  
to the wall socket and switch on the  
electricity supply.  
DEFROSTING  
A) FRIDGE COMPARTMENT  
The fridge compartment defrosts  
automatically. The defrosting water  
runs to the drain tube via a collection  
container at the back of the appliance  
(1).(see diagram)  
During defrosting water droplets  
may form at the back of the fridge  
compartment  
where  
concealed  
evaporator is located.  
Some droplets may remain on the  
liner and refreeze when defrosting is  
completed. Do not use pointed or sharp  
edged objects such as knives, forks to  
remove the droplets which have frozen.  
If at any time the defrost water does  
not drain from the collection channel,  
check to ensure that no food particles  
have blocked the drain tube. The drain  
tube can be cleared by pushing the  
special plastic plunger provided down  
the drain tube (2). If the frost layer  
reaches about 1/4"(7 mm), reduce  
the setting (i.e. from 4 to 3) to restart  
automatic defrosting.

has tripped/main distribution switch  
has been turned off.
