Installation Instructions
BEFORE USING YOUR BAR FRIDGE
→ Remove the exterior and interior packing.
→ Keep away from heat and avoid direct sunlight.
→ Do not place the fridge in moist or watery places to prevent rust or reduction
of insulating eect.
→ Before connecting the bar fridge to the power source, let it stand upright for
approximately 1 hour. This will reduce the possibility of a malfunction in the cooling
system from handling during transportation.
→ Clean the interior surface with lukewarm water using a soft cloth.
INSTALLATION LOCATION:
→ When selecting a position for your bar fridge you should make sure that the oor is level,
and that the room is well ventilated with an average room temperature of between 16°
and 35°.
→ Always avoid locating your bar fridge near a heat source, such as a heater.
→ Also avoid direct sunlight as it may increase the electrical consumption.
→ Extreme cold ambient temperatures may also cause the unit not to perform properly. This
unit is not designed for use in a garage or outdoor installation.
→ Do not drape the unit with any covering.
→ When installing the unit, ensure that 10cm of free space is left at both sides, 10cm at the
rear and 30cm at the top of the unit. This will allow cold air to circulate around the wine
cooler and improve the eciency of the cooling process.
→ The door can be hinged to open to the right or to the left, depending on what better suits
the location.
→ Please ensure there is adequate space for the door to fully open.
→ Adjust the two levelling feet to ensure that the bar fridge is horizontally and vertically level.

REVERSING THE DOOR SWING
Tools Required: Phillips head screwdriver.
→ Start by ensuring the bar fridge is unplugged and empty.
→ Adjust the two levelling feet to their highest position.
→ To remove the door it is necessary to tilt the bar fridge backwards. Rest the fridge against
something solid to prevent it from slipping whilst removing the door.
→ All parts that are removed will be used when re-assembling the door hinge, so ensure
they are all kept safe .
→ DO NOT lay the bar fridge on its back or sides as this may damage the coolant system.
→ We recommend that this is a two person procedure.
1. Remove the plastic cover from the top door hinge.
2. Unscrew the three screws from the bottom bracket and remove the hinge bracket from
the opposite side. Place this to one side.
3. Slide the fridge door down approximately 15cm and remove from the top hinge, lifting
the door away from the fridge.
4. Remove the two screws from the top bracket and replace the bracket using the same
screws on to the opposite side. Note: You will need to remove the plastic cover caps from
the opposite side rst.
5. Slide the fridge door back onto the top hinge, ensuring that it is the correct way up.
Then screw the bottom hinge bracket into place, securing the door in place.
6. Fit the plastic cover caps and ensure that the door is aligned both vertically and
horizontally, before tightening the bottom hinge. Re-adjust the levelling feet.

Operating Your Bar Fridge
TEMPERATURE CONTROL
→ Your bar fridge has one control for regulating the temperature. The temperature control
is located on the right hand side wall of the interior.
• Setting “O” UnitO
• Setting “Min” Less Cool Temperature
• Setting “Med” Normal Operation (adequate for most situations)
• Setting “Max” Coolest Temperature
→ Depending on your room’s ambient temperature, you may need to adjust the temperature
setting to achieve your desired temperature.
→ The number on the thermostat dial does not directly represent the temperature. Instead,
the larger the number is, the lower the fridge interior temperature will be. Dial position
1-2 will set your fridge to approximately -12°C, 3-4 will set your fridge to approximately
-15°C, and dial position 5-6 will set it to approximately -20°C.
Note: If the unit is unplugged, lost power, or turned o; you must wait 3 to 5
minutes before restarting the unit.
→ If you choose to change the thermostat setting, adjust thermostat control by one
numerical increment at a time. Allow several hours for temperature to stabilize
between adjustments.
NOISE FROM YOUR BAR FRIDGE
→ You may notice that your bar fridge makes some unusual noises from time to time. Most
of these are perfectly normal, but you should be aware of them!
→ These noises are caused by the circulation of the refrigerant liquid in the cooling system.
This is not a fault and will not affect the performance of your unit and is common with all
modern fridges.
DEFROSTING YOUR BAR FRIDGE
→ Defrost the freezing compartment whenever the layer of frost on the surface of the
evaporator reaches 3 or 4 mm.
Important! Do not use boiling water because it may damage the plastic parts. In
addition, never use a sharp or metallic instrument to remove frost as it
may damage the cooling coils and will void the warranty. We recommend
using a plastic scraper.
→ When defrosting, remove all food and set the thermostat at the “OFF” position.
→ Put the drip tray under the evaporator to collect melted water.
→ After the frost has melted, discard the melted water and dry up the interior of
refrigerator.
→ The refrigerator can now be restarted by turning its thermostat to the desired setting.
Helpful Tip. Defrosting usually takes a few hours. Leaving the door open will help
speed the process. Also, pouring warm water (not boiling) on the ice/frost
will help speed melting. If you must use a scraper- please use caution—
it is very easy to damage the fridge compartment and void your warranty.

ENERGY SAVING TIPS
→ The bar fridge should be located in the coolest area of the room, away from heat
producing appliances or heating ducts, and out of the direct sunlight.
→ Let hot foods cool to room temperature before placing in the bar fridge. Overloading the
fridge forces the compressor to run longer.
→ Be sure to wrap foods properly, and wipe containers dry before placing them in the bar
fridge. This cuts down on frost build-up inside the fridge/fridge.
→ Liners interfere with cold air circulation, making the fridge less ecient.
→ Organize and label food to reduce door openings and extended searches. Remove as
many items as needed at one time, and close the door as soon as possible.
SERVICING
→ Your bar fridge should only be serviced by an authorised service agent of the Residentia
Group.
→ Under no circumstances should you attempt to repair or alter the appliance yourself.
Repairs carried out by inexperienced persons may cause personal injury or serious
malfunction.
OPERATION IN CASE OF EMERGENCY
In the event of an emergency you should:
→ Switch o the bar fridge at the thermostat and then unplug the fridge at the power
outlet.
→ Call the Residentia Support Team on 1300 11 HELP (4357).
→ Some minor faults can be xed by referring to the instructions given in the

Tips
→ The refrigerator enclosure may emit heat during operation specially in summer,
this is caused by the radiation of the condenser, and it is a normal phenomenon.
→ Condensation: Condensation will be detected on the exterior surface and door seals
of the freezer when the ambient humidity is large. This is a normal
phenomenon and the condensation can be wiped away with a dry towel.
→ Airow sound: Refrigerants circulating in the refrigerant lines will produce eruptions
of sound or 'grunts' which is normal and does not aect the cooling
eect.
→ Buzzing: Buzzing will be generated by running compressor specially when starting
up or shutting down.
→ Clatter: The solenoid valve or electric switch valve will clatter which is a normal
occurrence and does not aect the operation.
→ The refrigerating chamber will periodically frost and defrost (water drops will be
generated on the backside of the refrigerating chamber when defrosting) which is
normal.
