leave the appliance, always ensure that the book is left with the appliance in order that the new owner
can get to know the functioning of the appliance and the relevant safety information.
This information has been provided in the interest of safety. You MUST read it carefully before
installing or using the appliance.
Installation
• This appliance is heavy. Care should be taken
when moving it.
• It is dangerous to alter the specifications or attempt
to modify this product in any way.
• Care must be taken to ensure that the appliance
does not stand on the electrical supply cable.
Important: if the supply cable is damaged, it must
be replaced by a special cable available from
Expert Appliance Care.
• Any electrical work required to install this appliance
should be carried out by a qualified electrician or
competent person.
• Parts which heat up should not be exposed.
Whenever possible, the back of the appliance
should be close to a wall but leaving the required
distance for ventilation as stated in the installation
instructions.
• The appliance should be left for 2 hours after installation before it is turned on, in order to allow the
refrigerant to settle.
Child Safety
• Do not allow children to tamper with the controls or
play with the product.
• Keep all packaging well away from children.
General Safety
• Take utmost care when handling your appliance
so as not to cause any damages to the cooling
unit with consequent possible fluid leakages.
• The appliance must not be located close to radiators or boilers.
• Avoid prolonged exposure of the appliance to
direct sunlight.
• Do not use other electrical appliances (such as
ice cream makers) inside of refrigerating appliances.
During Use
• This appliance is designed for domestic use only,
specifically for the storage of edible foodstuffs.
• Frozen food must NOT be re-frozen once it has
thawed out.
• Do not place carbonated or fizzy drinks in the freezer.
• Do not remove items from the freezer if your
hands are damp/wet, as this could cause skin
abrasions or frost/freezer burns.

• Manufacturers’ storage recommendations should
be strictly adhered to. Refer to relevant instructions.
• The cooling plate or refrigerated freezer shelves
in this appliance contain channels through which
the refrigerant passes. If these are punctured this
will cause substantial damage to the appliance
and result in food loss. DO NOT USE SHARP
INSTRUMENTS to scrape off frost or ice. Under
NO circumstances should solid ice be forced off
the lining or shelves. Solid ice should be allowed
to thaw, when defrosting the appliance. See
Defrost Instructions.

INSTALLATION
Positioning
This appliance should only be installed at a location
where the ambient temperature corresponds to the
climate classification indicated on the rating plate,
which is located at the left on the inside of the
appliance.
The following table shows which ambient
temperature is correct for each climate classification:
SN +10°C to + 32°C
N +16°C to + 32°C
ST +18°C to + 38°C
T +18°C to + 43°C
It should be located in a dry atmosphere, out of
direct sunlight and away from extreme temperature
e.g. not next to a boiler or radiator, or in a very cold
room e.g. an outhouse, where the temperatures may
fall below 10°C (50°F). If these temperatures are
exceeded i.e. colder or warmer, then the appliance
may not operate correctly.
You should also ensure that air can circulate freely
around the back and the top of the cabinet. There
must also be at least 100 mm (4”) distance between
the top of the cabinet and any overhanging kitchen
furniture (A). Ideally, the appliance should not be
positioned beneath overhanging furniture (B).
There should also be a gap of 25 mm either side of
the appliance. Do not obstruct the space
underneath.
Rear spacers
The plastic bag containing all relevant
documentation also contains two spacers to be fitted
into special holes in the back of the appliance.
Fit the spacers into the holes, taking care to ensure
that the arrow (A) is positioned as shown in the
diagram. Then turn them through 45° (arrow (A)
vertical) until they lock into place.
DO NOT install in places with restricted ventilation.
Adjust the level of the appliance by screwing out the
adjustable foot, or feet, at the bottom of the cabinet.

Important
It must be possible to disconnect the appliance from
the mains power supply; the plug must therefore be
easily accessible after installation.
Depending upon the position which you choose for
your appliance, you may wish to reverse the way in
which the door opens. To do this, refer to instructions
on “Door reversal directions” paragraph.

OPERATION
Before using
Remove all securing tapes. Wash inside the
appliance with lukewarm water and bicarbonate of
soda (5 ml to 0.5 litre of water).
Do not use soap or detergent as the smell may
linger. Dry thoroughly.
Setting the temperature
The temperature within the appliance is controlled by
the thermostat situated at the top of the appliance.
To operate the appliance proceed as follows:
Turn the thermostat control beyond the «■» position.
Position min = minimum coldness
Position max = maximum coldness
Turn the thermostat dial to the required position.
The intermediate position is usually the most
suitable.
The thermostat control regulates the temperature
both within the fridge and the freezer compartment.
The thermostat setting can vary as the temperature
inside the appliance depends on the following
factors:
To Start the Appliance
Allow the appliance to stand for 2 hours after
installation.
Plug in the appliance and switch on at the mains
supply. Turn the thermostat control to a midway
setting. The pilot light will light up. Adjust the slider
control, situated on the back wall of the fridge
section, to a midway position between “MIN” and
“MAX”. Leave the appliance for approximately 4
hours for the correct temperature to be reached
before placing food inside.
To switch off the appliance turn the thermostat
control to position “«■»”
– room temperature
– how often the door is opened
– how much food is stored
– position of the appliance

Use of an air circulation slider
control - COOL FLOW CONTROL
Your appliance has an air circulation slider control
situated at the rear of the fridge compartment, which
controls the amount of cold air circulated through the
fridge compartment.
When the ambient temperature is between 10°C and
16°C, the slider control should be in the “MIN”
position.
When the ambient temperature is above 16°C the
slider control should be midway between “MIN” and
“MAX”.
When the ambient temperature is very high (i.e. hot
summer days) position the slider control to “MAX”.
