Please read these instructions carefully.

Keep the instructions in a safe place and make sure that they are retained with the refrigerator when the appliance is transferred to a new location or owner.

Note! If this refrigerator is replacing a larger one which is going to be scrapped, remove the door before disposal to prevent children from becoming trapped inside.

Please contact the relevant area refuse office to arrange disposal. The pipe system of your refrigerator must not be damaged if technically correct disposal is to be guaranteed.

If possible, please take the packaging of your new refrigerator to the recycling centre for your area.

Recommendation: before installation or initial use of the appliance, clean the interior and fittings with lukewarm water and, if necessary, a mild detergent. Never use acidic, abrasive or strongsmelling detergents or wax polishes!

Connecting to the mains

The refrigerator must only be connected to the electricity supply using an earthed socket outlet, installed in accordance with local regulations. Before connecting the refrigerator, check from the data label inside the cabinet that the voltage agrees with your mains supply.

Warning - This Appliance must be earthed.

SWITCHING ON

Inside the refrigerator you will find a plastic bag contanining 4 small wheels. Carefully place the refrigerator on its back and insert the pins of the wheels into the metal holders located on the underside of the refrigerator. In this way you can always move your refrigerator to where it is needed.

To switch on the refrigerator, plug it into the socket and turn the thermostat (in the inside compartment) to position 3 or 4. The appliance start to cool in about one hour.

The temperature inside the refrigerator is affected by location, room temperature and too frequent opening of the door. Adjustment of the thermostat dial may therefore be necessary.

TEMPERATURE CONTROL

The cooling capacity can be adjusted with the thermostat. 0=cooling is switched off, from 1-5 the temperature decreases. When the thermostat is at a medium setting and the ambient temperature is normal, the temperature inside the refrigerator is between 0°-7°C.

Note! Depending on the ambient temperature, service life, and quantity and temperature of the refrigerated items, the temperature inside the refrigerator can drop to below 0°C when the thermostat is set at 5 (maximum cooling capacity).

Drinks can freeze, glass bottles and can may burst!

If the ambient temperature is very high, the cooling capacity decreases. This does not mean than the appliance is defective.

USING THE REFRIGERATOR

The refrigerator provides sufficient storage space for food, milk, drinks etc. The shelves on the inside of the door are suitable for bottles, tins and small packets. The un-refrigerated space above the cooling compartment can be used for storing glasses and snacks.

All food should be stored in its original packaging or in closed containers. Liquids should also only be stored in closed bottles or containers. In this way food remains moist, odours do not form and neither does excess ice form on the cooling unit. Allow hot food and drink to cool down before placing them in the refrigerator.

Do not keep any easily combustible substances such as ether, petrol, adhesive, propane gas etc. in the refrigerator, it could explode!

ICE CUBES

Fill the ice-cube container to 4/5 with potable water. Place the ice-cube container in the freezer section. Wipe off any excess water to prevent the ice tray from freezing to the surface.

To speed up the making of ice cubes, turn the thermostat to position 5 for a short while. Remember to turn the dial to its normal setting when the ice cubes are frozen.

To remove the cubes from the ice tray, hold it under running water. Remove the lid with the ice cubes from the ice tray and the ice cubes can now be taken out easily.
