The thermostat knob is adjustable from 0 (stop) to 7 (coldest). Find the position of the thermostat which gives you the desired temperature. Start at position 4.

Defrosting

The evaporator is automatically defrosted. The defrost water is led to a tray on top of the compressor where it evaporates.

3. MAINTENANCE

Only use an unscented detergent when cleaning the cabinet inside. You may remove the top panel and wash it when cleaning the cabinet inside. Switch off the appliance and pull out the plug when cleaning the cabinet. The skirting board can be removed to facilitate a vaccuum-cleaning of the floor. See fig. (1) page 5.

To make the cooling system work at its optimum it is necessary from time to time to clean the wire condenser and the compressor at the back of the cabinet by means of a brush or a vaccuum cleaner. Remember to clean the drain.

IMPORTANT! I n case of damage to the power cord it must be replaced by a power cord of corresponding type, available from the manufacturer or his service representative.

4. HAS THE APPLIANCE STOPPED WORKING?

Before calling a repairman, check that l The plug is properly plugged into the wall

socket.

l The fuse is intact. l The power has not been cut off. l All controls are correctly set. l Switch off the cabinet for 15 minutes (for

instance at the thermostat). Switch it on again and after 5 minutes check whether frost has formed on the evaporator.

l Do not open the cabinet when

unnecessary.

5. SAFETY

Do not store explosive substances in the

refrigerator section, such as gas, cigarette lighters, petrol, ether or similar. Scrapped cabinets may become dangerous to children at play. Therefore, remove the doors or place the scrapped cabinet in such a way that children cannot enter it. Never store liquids with carbon dioxide in the freezing section.

6. TECHNICAL DATA

This appliance meets the provisions of the following directives: 89/336/EEC (electromagnetic compatibility), 73/23/EEC (electrical equipment designed for use within certain voltage limits) as amended. The rating plate, which is placed inside the appliance (see fig. (6) page 4), provides various technical information as well as type and serial number.

7. INSTALLATION

See drawings - fig. 1 page (5) - fig. (1), (2) and (3) page 6. Install the cabinet in a dry place and so that it is not exposed to direct sunlight or any other source of heat. Place the cabinet in a level position. This is easily achieved by adjusting the adjustable feet at the front edge of the base. The cabinet may not rest against a wall on its hinged side. When placing the cabinet on a carpet or on a wooden floor you should adjust it once more after some time as the cabinet might settle in soft foundations. If you want to build the appliance into a cupboard you must consider 3 factors:

1. There must be space above the appliance in order to make the cooling system work satisfactorily. - Fig. (1) page

2. When the door is opened the appliance takes up more room in the width and therefore the door must either be placed outside the cupboard or there must be a space of at least 15 mm at the hinge side. - Fig. (2B) page 6.

3. The distance to the wall at the hinge side must be of a sufficient size. - Fig. (2B) page 6.

In addition, the bottle cooler may be built in or positioned alongside another unit – fig. (3) page 6. If the wine cooler is to be placed next to another unit, a 25 mm gap must be left. Any local installation rules for appliances of this kind must be observed. During a storm the electricity supply might be cut off. You should be aware of this when installing the appliance in weekend cottages or elsewhere where you would not immediately observe that the power has been cut off. Construction and details in the accessories are subject to alteration without previous notice.

8. CHANGE OF HINGE SIDE

Follow the instructions below if you wish to install the door hinges at the opposite side. See the drawings on page 7. Dismantle the top panel cover - (1) and (2). Dismantle the top hinge. To be used later as bottom hinge at the opposite side - (3). Dismantle the door and its bushing. Dismantle the bottom hinge - (6).
