APPLIANCE OPERATION
Your unit has only one
control for regulating
the temperature in the
compartment. The
temperature control is
located on the upper
right hand side of the
compartment.
The first time you turn the unit on, set the
temperature control to "6".
The range of the temperature control is from
position "OFF" to "6". After 24 to 48 hours, adjust
the temperature control to the setting that best suits
your needs. The setting of "4" should be appropriate
for home or office use.
To turn the appliance off, turn the temperature
control to"OFF".
NOTE: Turning the temperature control to "OFF"
position stops the cooling cycle but does not shut off
the power to the unit.
If the unit is unplugged, has lost power, or is turned
off, you must wait 3 to 5 minutes before restarting
the unit. If you attempt to restart before this time
delay, the unit will not start.
PROLONGED OFF PERIODS
If the refrigerator is not used for a long period of
time,proceed as follows:
Disconnect the refrigerator from the main supply by
removing the plug from the wall socket
Clean and dry the inside as instructed under the
heading of Before Using Your Refrigerator
Leave the door open to prevent any unpleasant
smells from building up while the refrigerator is not
in use.
ENERGY SAVING
For better energy saving we suggest:
•
Installing the appliance away from heat
sources and not exposed to direct
sunlight and in a well-ventilated room.
•
Avoid putting hot food into the
refrigerator to avoid increasing the
internal temperature and therefore
causing continuous functionalizing of
the compressor.
•
Do not excessively stuff foods so as to
ensure proper air circulation.
•
Defrost the appliance in case there is ice
to facilitate the transfer of cold.
•
In case of absence of electrical energy, it
is advisable to keep the refrigerator
door closed.
•
Open or keep the doors of the appliance
open as little as possible.
•
Avoid adjusting the setting to
temperatures too cold.
•
Remove dust present on the rear of the
appliance.
TAKE CARE
Defrosting
Defrost twice a year or when a frost layer of around
5 mm has formed.
Alternatively you may switch off the freezer at the
socket outlet and pull out the mains plug. Extract the
water conduit and put in a water container.
As a temporary measure, this frost should be scraped
away using a plastic scraper. NEVER use a metal or
sharp instrument. This should be carried out if the
frost build-up cannot be scraped away, or if it begins
to interfere with the food storage. Chose a time
when the stock of frozen food is low and proceed as
follow:
1. Take out the frozen food, turn the Refrigerator off
at the mains supply and leave the doors open. Ideally
the frozen food should be put into another
Fridge/Freezer or refrigerator. If this is not possible
wrap the food, firstly in several sheets of newspaper
or large towels and then in a thick rug or blanket and
keep it in a cool place.
2. Scrape away as much frost build-up as possible
using the plastic scraper. To accelerate the thawing
process place bowls of hot water inside the
Fridge/Freezer cabinet. As the solid frost loosens,
prize it away with the plastic scraper and remove.
3. When defrosting is completed, clean your
Fridge/Freezer as described.
Cleaning and Care
After defrosting you should clean the Fridge/Freezer
internally with a weak solution of bicarbonate of
soda. Then rinse with warm water using a damp
sponge or cloth and wipe dry. Wash the baskets in
warm soapy water and ensure they are completely
dry before replacing in the Fridge/Freezer.
Condensation will form on the back wall of the
Fridge; however it will normally run down the back
wall and into the drain hole behind the salad bin.
The drain hole will have a "cleaning spike" inserted
into it. This ensures that small pieces off food can not
enter the drain. After you have cleaned the inside of
your Fridge and removed any food residues from
around the whole, use the "cleaning spike" to make
sure that there are no blockages. Use standard
furniture polish to clean the Fridge/Freezer exterior.
Make sure that the doors are closed to prevent
polish getting on the magnetic door seal or inside.
The grille of the condenser at the back of the
Fridge/Freezer and the adjacent components can be
vacuumed using a soft brush attachment.
Do not use harsh cleaners, scouring pads or solvents
to clean any part of the Fridge/Freezer.
CHANGING THE INTERNAL LIGHT
1. Pull out the plug, cutting off the power supply.
2. Remove lamp cover (Figure 1).
3. Rotation can remove the light bulb, then turn
in the opposite direction to fit the new light
bulb (Figure 2).
4. Replace covre, connect power supply.
