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

Energy Saving Tips
1. Ensure your appliance is
installed in a well ventilated
area.
2. Ensure the time between
buying chilled/frozen food and
placing them in your appliance
is kept at minimum, particularly
in summer. We recommend
you use a cool bag or a special
carrier bag to carry perishable
food.
3. Do not leave the door (s) of
your appliance open longer
than necessary and ensure
they are closed properly after
each opening.
4. Defrost frozen food in the fridge,
so that frozen food acts as an
ice pack to assist cooling in
fridge.

Before operating your
refrigerator
Before starting to use your refrigerator
check the following:
1. Is the interior of the refrigerator
dry and can the air circulate freely in
the rear of it?
2. Please install the 2 plastic
wedges as illustrated in the figure.
Plastic wedges will provide the
required distance between your
refrigerator and the wall in order to
allow the air circulation. (The illustrated
figure is only an example and does not
match exactly with your product.)
3. Clean the interior of the
refrigerator as recommended in the
“Maintenance and cleaning” section.
4. Plug the refrigerator into the wall
outlet. When the fridge door is open,
the fridge compartment interior light
will come on.
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,
even if the compressor is not running
and this is quite normal.
6. Front edges of the refrigerator
may feel warm. This is normal. These
areas are designed to be warm to
avoid condensation
Electric connection

socket which is being protected by a
fuse with the appropriate capacity.

Disposing of the packaging
The packing materials may be
dangerous for children. Keep the
packing materials out of the reach
of children or dispose of them by
classifying them in accordance with the
waste instructions. Do not dispose of
them along with the normal household
waste.
The packing of your refrigerator is
produced from recyclable materials.
Disposing of your old
refrigerator
Dispose of your old refrigerator without
giving any harm to the environment.
• You may consult your authorised
dealer or waste collection center of
your municipality about the disposal
of your refrigerator.
Before disposing of your refrigerator, cut
out the electric plug and, if there are
any locks on the door, make them
inoperable in order to protect children
against any danger.
If the refrigerator is to be placed in a
recess in the wall, there must be at
least 5 cm distance with the ceiling
and at least 5 cm with the wall. If the
floor is covered with a carpet, your
product must be elevated 2.5 cm from
the floor.
4. Place your refrigerator on an
even floor surface to prevent jolts.
5. This appliance is equipped with
'Food Protector Technology' which
ensures that at the advised setting [4
- four on the control] the frozen food in
the freezer will not defrost even if the
ambient temperature falls as low as
-15 °C. So you may then install your
appliance in a garage or an unheated
room without having to worry about
frozen food in the freezer being spoilt.
However at low ambient temperatures
mentioned above, fridge contents are
likely to freeze, so check and consume
food in the fridge accordingly. When
the ambient temperature returns to
normal, you may change the setting to
suit your needs.
Placing and Installation
A
If the entrance door of the room
where the refrigerator will be installed
is not wide enough for the refrigerator
to pass through, then carefully
remove the doors of your refrigerator
and pass it sideways through the
door.
1. Install your refrigerator to a
place that allows ease of use.
2. Keep your refrigerator away
from heat sources, humid places and
direct sunlight.
3. There must be appropriate air
ventilation around your refrigerator in
order to achieve an efficient operation.
