Before first use of the fridge

You must allow the fridge to settle for at least twenty four hours prior to switching the power on.

It is recommended that you clean the interior of the appliance prior to first use, using a solution of bicarbonate of soda
and warm water and then thoroughly drying the interior.

The fridge may have an odour to it at first use. This will disappear as the appliance cools.

The green power light on the control panel will be lit when you have plugged the appliance in to the power supply. Then
turn the thermostat dial to position 5 (coldest) and switch on the fast freeze function until the red temperature warning
light on the control panel goes off.

When the red light has gone off, turn the thermostat down to the required level (recommended between 2-4) and switch
off the fast freeze function.

Please note:

The appliance will work continuously until it comes down to the correct temperature.

If the appliance is switched off, you should allow five minutes before switching it on again to prevent unnecessary damage
to the compressor.

Defrosting the fridge

The fridge is self-defrosting. Any water created will run out of the fridge through the channel at the back of the fridge.
It is important to keep the channel clear at all times. The defrosted water is collected in the evaporating tray at the back
of the appliance.

Use

Never put liquids in the refrigerator uncovered.

Never put hot foods in the refrigerator. Warm food should be allowed to cool to room temperature before being

put into the refrigerator.

Nothing should rest against the rear wall of the refrigerator, as this will cause frost and possible condensation

problems which will be difficult to remove.
