4 Before operating
Final Check
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.
Before you start using the fridge/
freezer check that:
1. The feet have been adjusted for
perfect levelling.
“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 thermostat control half way
between 1 and 5.
7. Front edges of the cabinet may feel
warm. This is normal. These areas
are designed to be warm to avoid
condensation.
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.
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.

5 Using your refrigerator
TEMPERATURE CONTROL
AND ADJUSTMENT
We recommend that you check
the temperature with an accurate
thermometer to ensure that the
storage 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 appliance.
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.
In case of a temporary ice build up in
the fridge compartment, reduce the
thermostat setting to 1, monitoring
at the same time that the fridge
temperature is maximum +5 degrees
C [41 degrees F]. Once the ice build
up disappears and the appliance
starts auto defrosting again as normal,
Operating temperatures are controlled
by the thermostat control (see
diagram) located on the ceiling of the
fridge compartment. Settings may be
made from 1 to 5, 5 being the coldest
position.
When the appliance is switched
on for the first time, the thermostat
should be adjusted so that after 24
hours, the average fridge temperature
is no higher than +5°C (+41°F). We
recommend you set the thermostat
half way between the 1 and 5 setting
and monitor to obtain the desired
temperature i. e. towards 5 you will
obtain a colder fridge temperature and then you may increase the thermostat
vice versa. Some sections of the fridge setting, if required.
may be cooler or warmer ( such as the
salad crisper and the top part of the
cabinet ) which is quite normal.
The normal storage temperature of the
freezer should be -18°C (0°F). Lower
temperatures may be obtained by
adjusting thermostat knob towards 5
position.

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.
11. Shelves, racks, crisper bins,
drawers, flaps, bottle grippers are all

affected if the failure lasts for less than
18 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
max/kg at any one time max 6 kg/
24 hours. The quality of the food is
best preserved when it is frozen right
through to the core as quickly as
possible.
13. For hygiene reasons, always
wrap food using a suitable packaging
material before storing in your
appliance to avoid contact with the
appliance surface.
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.
STORING FROZEN FOOD
Prepacked commercially frozen food
should be stored in accordance
with the frozen food manufacturer’s
When freezing fresh food turn the
setting control toward. Max small
quantities of food up to 1/2 kg. (1 lb)

To ensure that the high quality chieved
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.
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.
2. Ensure that contents are labelled
and dated.
3. Do not exceed “Use By”, “Best
Before” dates on the packaging.
