Installation Instructions
1. The space in the room where
the appliance is installed must not be
smaller than 10 cubic metres.
2. This appliance has been
designed to operate in ambient
temperatures up to 32 degrees C
(90 degrees F) and is equipped with
Advanced Electronic Temperature
Control System [AETCS] which
background
EN

ensures that at the advised setting
[4 - four on the knob] the frozen food
in the freezer will not defrost even
if the ambient temperature falls as
low as -15 °C. When first installed the
product MUST NOT be placed in low
ambient temperatures because the
freezer will not reduce to it’s standard
operating temperature. Once it
has reached its steady operating
state it can be re-located. So you
may then install your appliance in a
garage or an unheated room without
having to worry about frozen food in
the freezer being spoilt. However at
low ambient temperatures mentioned
above, fridge contents are likely to
freeze, so check and consume food
in the fridge accordingly. When the
ambient temperature returns to
normal, you may change the knob
setting to suit your needs. If the
ambient temperature is below 0°C,
the food in the fridge compartment
will freeze. So, we recommend you
don’t use the fridge compartment
in such low ambient conditions.
You can continue using the freezer
compartment as usual.
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:
From Cookers 50 mm (2”)
From Radiators 300 mm (12”)
From Freezers 25 mm (1”)
4. Make sure that sufficient room
is provided around the appliance to
ensure free air circulation. Fit the
Two plastic wall spacers supplied
with the appliance rotating 1/4 turn

4 Before operating
Final Check
Before you start using the fridge/
freezer check that:
1. For a freestanding appliance;
‘this refrigerating appliance is not
intended to be used as a built-in
appliance’ ;.
2. The feet have been adjusted
for perfect levelling.
3. The interior is dry and air can
circulate freely at the rear of the
cabinet.
4. Clean the interior as
recommended under “CLEANING AND
CARE.”
5. 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.
6. 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.”
7. Set the setting knob half way
between min and max.
8. Front edges of the cabinet may
feel warm. This is normal. These areas
are designed to be warm to avoid
condensation.
9. 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)”
10. 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.
11. 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.
12. Since hot and humid air will not
directly penetrate into your product
when the doors are not opened,
your product will optimize itself in
conditions sufficient to protect your
food. In this energy saving function,
functions and components such as
compressor, fan, heater, defrost,
lighting, display and so on will operate
according to the needs to consume
minimum energy while maintaining
the freshness of your foodstuff.

5 Using your refrigerator
Temperature Control And
Adjustment
The operating temperature is
regulated by the temperature control.
Warm Cold
1 2 3 4 5
(Or) Min. Max.
1=Lowest cooling setting
(Warmest setting).
5=Highest cooling setting
(Coldest setting).
The average temperature inside the
fridge should be around +5°C.
Please choose the setting according
to the desired temperature.
Please note that there will be
different temperatures in the cooling
area.
The coldest region is immediately
above the vegetable compartment.
The interior temperature also
depends on ambient temperature,
the frequency with which the door is
opened and the amount of foods kept
inside.
Frequently opening the door causes
the interior temperature to rise.
For this reason, it is recommended
to close the door again as soon as
possible after use.
Thermostat setting button
The interior temperature of your
refrigerator changes for the following
reasons;
• Seasonal temperatures,
• Frequent opening of the door and
leaving the door open for long
periods,
• Food put into the refrigerator
without cooling down to the room
temperature,
• The location of the refrigerator in
the room (e.g. exposing to sunlight).
• You may adjust the varying interior
temperature due to such reasons
by using the thermostat. Numbers
around the thermostat button
indicates the cooling degrees.
• If the ambient temperature is higher
than 25°C, turn the thermostat
button to maximum position.
• If the ambient temperature is lower
than 25°C, turn the thermostat
button to minimum position.

Suggested Arrangement
Of Food In The Fridge/
Freezer
2. The freezer compartment
is rated and suitable for
the freezing of fresh food and
storage of pre-frozen food. The
recommendation for storage
as stated on the food packaging
should be observed at all times.
3. Cooked dishes must be stored
in airtight covered containers.
4. Fresh wrapped produce can be
placed on the shelf. Fresh fruit and
vegetables should be cleaned and
stored in the crisper bins.
5. Bottles can be placed in the
door section.
6. To store raw meat, wrap in
polythene bags and place on the
lowest shelf. Do not allow to come
into contact with cooked food to avoid
contamination. For safety, only store
raw meat for two to three days.
7. Keep the food packed wrapped
or covered. Allow hot food and
beverages to cool before placing them
in the fridge. Do not store explosive
substances. High proof alcohol
must be stored upright in sealed
containers. Left over canned food
should not be stored in the can.
8. Fizzy drinks should not be
frozen and products such as flavoured
water ices should not be consumed
too cold.
9. Some fruit and vegetables
suffer damage if kept at
temperatures near 0°C. Therefore
wrap pineapples, melons, cucumbers,
tomatoes and similar produce in
polythene bags.
10. Place chilled cooked food and
similar food near the rear of the
fridge inner liner where the cold wall
is located.
Arrangement Examples (See
diagram)
1. Baked, chilled cooked food,
dairy products, cans.
2. Meat, sausages, cold cuts.
3. Fruit, vegetables, salads.
4. Making, storing ice cubes.
5. Frozen food.
6. Frozen food and freezing of
fresh food.
7. Butter, cheese.
8. Small bottles, cans, tubes.
9. Eggs.
10. Tall/Large bottles.
The following guidelines and
recommendations are suggested to
obtain the best results and storage
hygiene.
1. The fridge compartment is for
the short term storage of fresh food
and drinks.
background
EN
18
11. Shelves, racks, crisper bins,
drawers, flaps, bottle grippers are all
removable.
12. Do not leave frozen food at
room temperature to thaw; the best
way to defrost food is to put it in the
fridge to thaw slowly. Make sure you
avoid defrosting food or food juices
drip onto other food.
13. For hygiene reasons, always
wrap food using a suitable packaging
material before storing in your
appliance to avoid contact with the
appliance surface.
Storing Frozen Food
Prepacked commercially frozen
food should be stored in accordance
with the frozen food manufacturer’s
instructions for a frozen food
storage compartment.
To ensure that the high quality
achieved by the frozen food
manufacturer and the food retailer is
maintained, the following should be
remembered:
1. Put packets in the freezer as
quickly as possible after purchase.
2. Ensure that contents are
labelled and dated.
3. Do not exceed “Use By”, “Best
Before” dates on the packaging.
If there is a power failure do not
open the door. Frozen food should not
be affected if the failure lasts for less
than 20 hrs. If the failure is longer,
then the food should be checked and
either eaten immediately or cooked
and then re-frozen.
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 kg
(8.8 lb)
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 the refrigeration
compartment.
When freezing fresh food turn the
thermostat knob towards MAX. 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.
Making Ice Cubes
Fill the ice - cube tray 3/4 full with
water and place it in the Ice Bank.
Loosen frozen trays with the handle
of a spoon, never use sharp edged
objects such as knives, forks. Store
ice-cubes in the Ice Bank.
Note: If freshly made ice cubes are
not consumed for several weeks
and stored in Ice Bank, they will
slowly reduce in size and eventually
disappear completely.

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 allow items in the
fridge to touch the back wall as the
water droplets will make them wet.
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 1) to restart
automatic defrosting.
B) Freezer Compartment
The freezer compartment defrosts
automatically.
Warnings!
• The fan inside the freezer
compartment circulates cold air.
Never insert any object through the
guard. Do not allow children to play
with the freezer fan.
• Never store products that contain
inflammable propellant gas (eg
dispensers, spray cans etc.) or
explosive substances.
• Don’t cover the shelves with any
protective materials, which may
obstruct air circulation.
• Do not allow children to play with
the appliance or tamper with the
controls.
• Do not obstruct the freezer fan
guard to ensure that you obtain the
best possible performance from
your appliance.

6 Maintenance and cleaning
• We recommend that you switch off
the appliance at the socket outlet
and pull out the mains plug before
cleaning.
• Never use any sharp abrasive
instrument, soap, household
cleaner, detergent and wax polish
for cleaning.
• Use luke warm water to clean the
cabinet of the appliance and wipe it
dry.
• Use a damp cloth wrung out in
a solution of one teaspoon of
bicarbonate of soda to one pint of
water to clean the interior and wipe
it dry.
• Make sure that no water enters the
lamp housing.
• If the appliance is not going to be
used for a long period of time switch
it off, remove all food, clean it and
leave the door ajar.
• Any dust that gathers on the
condenser, which is located at the
back of the appliance, should be
removed once a year with a vacuum
cleaner.
• Check door seals regularly to ensure
they are clean and free from food
particles.
• Removal of door tray
• To remove door racks, remove all the
contents and then simply push the
door rack upwards from the base.
• To remove a freezer drawer, pull
it as far as possible, and then tilt
it upwards, and then pull it out
completely.
• To remove the freezer flap door, first
open the door 3” and then gently
pull it off. Make sure that the flap is
in place before closing the freezer
door.
• Make sure that the special plastic
container (drain tray) at the back of
the appliance which collects defrost
water is clean at all times. If you
want to remove the tray to clean it
follow the instructions below :
• Switch off at the socket outlet and
pull out the mains plug.
• Push the lug down with the tip of
a screw driver & pull out with a jerk
movement
• Clean the drain tray and wipe it dry.
• Reassemble reversing the sequence
and operations.
• 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.
ANever use cleaning agents or water
that contain chlorine to clean the
outer surfaces and chromium coated
parts of the product. Chlorine causes
corrosion on such metal surfaces.
