WARNING! THIS APPLIANCE MUST BE EARTHED
If the fitted moulded plug is not suitable for your socket, then the plug should be
cut off and an appropriate plug fitted. Destroy the old plug which is cut off as a
plug with bared cord could cause a shock hazard if inserted into a socket
elsewhere in the house.
The moulded plug on this appliance incorporates a 13 A fuse. Should the fuse
need to be replaced an ASTABEAB approved BS 1362 fuse of the same rating must
be used. Do not forget to refit the fuse cover. In the event of losing the fuse cover
the plug must not be used until a replacement fuse cover has been fitted. Colour
of the replacement fuse cover must be the same colour as that visible on the pin
face of the plug. Fuse covers are available from any good electrical store.
IMPORTANT! FITTING A DIFFERENT PLUG
As the colours of the wires in the
mains lead of this appliance may
not correspond with the coloured
markings identifying the terminals
in your plug proceed as follows:
(See diagram).
1. Connect the green-yellow or
green (Earth) wire to the terminal
in the plug marked 'E' or with
the symbol
or coloured
green and yellow or green.
2. Connect the blue (Neutral) wire
to the terminal in the plug
marked 'N' or coloured black.

In order to operate the automatic ice maker/dispenser and chilled water dispenser,
you will need to get your appliance plumbed into the cold mains water supply in
your house via a standard 1/2 “ valve fitting. If in doubt contact a qualified
plumber and your local water company. See page 9.
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")
TRANSPORTATION INSTRUCTIONS
1. The appliance should be transported only in a vertical upright position. The
packing as supplied must be intact during transportation.
2. If during the course of transport the appliance has to be transported
horizontally, it must only be laid on its left hand side when standing in the
front of the appliance. After bringing it to upright position,it must not be operated
for at least 4 hours to allow the system to settle.
3. Failure to comply with the above instructions could result in damage occuring
to the appliance. The manufacturer will not be held responsible if these
instructions are disregarded.

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
1. The space in the room where the appliance is installed must not be smaller
than 10 cubic metres.

to go below +5 degrees C (41 degrees F) during night time and/or especially
in winter.
From Radiators 300 mm (12")
From Freezers 25 mm (1")
From Wall 50 mm (2")
Adjustable feet adjustment for levelling
4.
If your refrigerator is not level, you can level it by turning the front feet as illustrated
in the figure below. The corner where the feet is lowered when you turn in the
direction of black arrow and raised when you turn in the opposite direction. You
may need somebody to help you to slightly lift the refrigerator off the floor for a
few centimeters. Take care when lifting the appliance because it is very heavy.
5. Door height adjustment
If there is a misalignment between the doors, perform the steps indicated below to adjust
door heights:
Doors can be raised vertically. This process can be performed easily using a flat tipped
screwdriver and an allen key (M6) as illustrated in the following figures. Door racks
should be removed when adjusting the door height.
• Remove the screws fastening the lower cover using a flat tipped screwdriver in the
order shown in the figure.
This fridge freezer has been designed to operate in ambient temperatures
between +5 and +32 degrees C (41 and 90 degrees F) Therefore if the
appliance is installed in an unheated/cold room (eg: conservatory/annex/
shed/garage etc) then the appliance will not operate causing the freezer
compartment to run warmer and as a result the storage time of frozen food
may be reduced.

• Loosen the 3 screws of the lower door hinges using a flat tipped screwdriver.
(Do not remove completely)
• If the freezer compartment door is lower than the fridge compartment door, bring
them to the same level by turning the elevation screw on the freezer compartment side
in the direction of arrow using a M6 allen key in the similar way as explained above
on the opposite side.
BEFORE FIRST USE & OPERATION
Ice/Water Dispenser
• The minimum inlet water pressure required is 1 bar
• The maximum inlet water pressure allowed is 8 bars
• The appliance must be connected to the cold mains water supply and must never be
connected to the hot water.
•Make sure the anti-condensation switch underneath the display is pressed after
connecting the appliance to the cold mains water supply. (Factory setting is in pressed
position)
• You will need to wait for 12 hours before you get your first ice cubes from the ice
dispenser. If there is less than 16 ice cubes in the ice cube container, ice dispenser may
not operate.
• The dispenser will not be activated if the freezer door is open. Therefore, please make
sure that the freezer door is closed in order to allow the dispenser to start operating.
• In order for the ice/water dispenser to operate smoothly, the water pressure in the
system should be between 1 – 8 bars. To check this, see if 1 glass of water (100 cc) fills
using the dispenser in 10 seconds.
• Do not forget to take out the Ice Hole Cover before using the ice dispenser.
• Water dispenser is automatically activated when the refrigerator starts operating.
However it would take up to 12 hours for the water to chill.
• If the freezer compartment door is higher than the fridge compartment door, bring
them to the same level by turning the elevation screw on the fridge compartment side
in the direction of arrow using a M6 allen key as illustrated below:
After doing the above adjustments, the doors should be level. If the doors do not close
properly, this might adversely affect the operation and efficiency of the refrigerator.

• Approximately the first 30 pieces of the ice cubes made and dispensed should not
be consumed.
• Water may not flow from the dispenser during the initial operation because of the
air trapped in the piping system. Press the latch for about 1 minute three times at intervals
to bleed the air trapped in the system. The uneven flow of the water from the dispenser
will disappear as soon as the trapped air in the system is released.
• The first 10 glasses of water should not be consumed.
• Always make sure that you fit the water filter before using the ice/water dispenser.
