Congratulations on your new GRAM
refrigerator/freezer
Congratulations on your new refrigerator/freezer. The refrigerator/freezer was
developed taking the different storage requirements of food items into
consideration. Some must be stored cold - others require a little higher temperature.
A few must be stored separately so as not to impart flavour and odour to other items
of food. Most items of food require high air humidity in order to stay fresh.
To ensure that you get as much joy out of your refrigerator/freezer as possible, it is
important that you become familiar with the its functions and know how to use the
accessories. Please read the instructions for use carefully before setting up and
using your refrigerator/freezer.
As these instructions apply to several refrigerator/freezer models, the equipment
may vary from model to model.
Before using the refrigerator/freezer
On receipt, check to ensure that the refrigerator/freezer has not become damaged
in transport. Transport damage should be reported to the local supplier before the
refrigerator is put to use.
Before filling the refrigerator/freezer with items of food, the refrigerator/freezer
interior should be cleaned with lukewarm water containing a mild detergent. Use
a soft cloth. If the refrigerator/freezer has been stored in cold surroundings (colder
than +5°C), it must be allowed to stabilise for at least 2 hours before being switched
on.

The refrigerator/freezer contains the
environment-friendly, non-ozone-depleting refrigerant R600a. As R600a is a
flammable gas, it is important to avoid
damage to the refrigeration circuit during transport and installation. If the
refrigeration circuit is damaged, avoid
using naked flame in the vicinity of the
refrigerator/freezer and connecting
power to the refrigerator/freezer. Also
make sure that there is good ventilation
in the room. If you are in doubt, please
contact your supplier.
Transporting and moving the
refrigerator/freezer
The refrigerator/freezer must always be
moved in the vertical position. The cabinet must not be tilted more than approx.
40°. If the refrigerator/freezer has been
tilted more than 40°, the power supply
must not be connected until the appliance has stood upright for at least two
hours.
If the refrigerator/freezer is to
remain unused for a time
If the refrigerator/freezer is to remain
unused for a time, e.g. in a summerhouse, switch refrigerator and freezer
off by pressing the buttons
(1), (2) and then disconnecting the power supply to the cabinet and
possibly pulling the plug out of the wall
socket.

ing the pushbutton (9)) or of the temperature
inside the freezer’s chamber (by pressing
the pushbutton (8)). The above mentioned
setting can be changed any time.
Temperature inside the
refrigerator-freezer
The temperature settings and temperature
values shown on the display are average
temperatures of the refrigerator-freezer. It
concerns both the refrigerator’s chamber
and the freezer’s chamber. Do not change
the temperature setting simply because it
is warmer in summer. The increase of the
room temperature will be detected by the
sensor and the compressor will automati
cally run for a longer time to maintain the
set temperature.

Using the refrigerating compartment and
accessories
Glass shelves
The glass shelves can be arranged to
give more, or less, space between the
shelves thus allowing flexible refrigerator/freezer arrangement (11 and 12).
Extract the shelf by lifting up the left
shelf side (13). Start by removing the
top shelf when you want to clean the
refrigerator or rearrange the shelves.
Bottle shelf
The bottle shelf is suitable for large and
small bottles.
Vegetable drawers
The drawers at the bottom of the refrigerating compartment are very suitable
for storing fruit and vegetables. The
overlying shelf covers the drawer and
maintains humidity thus preventing
stored food from drying out.
Multi-boxes
The multi-boxes are ideal for all items of
food and can be placed in the cabinet or
the door, whichever is most expedient.
The tight-fitting lids prevent drying out
and save much time in tedious wrapping and unwrapping. The multi-boxes
are made of material that remains unaffected by mineral oils, fats and weak
acids.
Multi-boxes can also be purchased as
accessories.
Storage shelves in the door
The shelves in the door can hold bottles of up to 2 litres. They can be moved
and placed throughout the entire height
of the door.

The refrigerating compartment features
automatic defrosting. In some periods,
however, frost may form on the rear wall
of the refrigerator. This normally hap
pens when many fresh food items are
stored in the refrigerator or in summer
when the refrigerator is filled with beverages to be cooled. In situations such as
these the compressor must run for long
periods of time to cool the food items.
As automatic defrosting takes place
while the compressor is at a standstill,
the refrigerator may not defrost completely before the compressor restarts.
In situations such as these manual
defrosting is required or help must be
called in to change the defrost function.
GB
14
Using the freezer compartment and accessories
The whole of the freezer can be used
for freezing down and for the long-term
storage of frozen items of food. In ad-
dition, KF 350 comes equipped with a
freezing tray for berries, etc.
Defrosting and cleaning
Automatic defrosting of refrigerating compartment
Manual defrosting of freezing
compartment
It is recommended to defrost the freezing compartment at least once a year.
Stop the freezing compressor by press-
ing the lower button (1).
Remove all items from the freezer. To
keep them as cold as possible during
defrost, they can be placed in the refrigerating compartment. Place a bowl
containing hot water (not boiling) in the
freezer.
Pull out the drain spout and place a
bowl under it to receive defrost water.
When the ice has melted, clean out the
freezer using water and a mild washing-up liquid. Dry the freezer with a soft
cloth.
13
Remove dust and threads from the
compressor compartment at the back of
the refrigerator/freezer with a vacuum
cleaner.
GB
15
Cleaning
Stop the refrigeration compressor by
pressing the upper button (2)
and disconnect the power supply to the
refrigerator/freezer.
The cabinet is best cleaned using a
weak soap solution and a soft cloth.
Never use cleaning agents that scour.
Clean the sealing strip around the door
regularly to prolong its life. Use only
clean water for cleaning the sealing
strip.
The plastic parts of the cabinet cannot
withstand boiling water (max. 85°C). It
is important to prevent water from getting into the control panel.
Clean the melt water drain in the refrigerating compartment using the cleaning
pin supplied (15).
Cleaning of doors in stainless
steel or aluminium
Stainless steel or aluminium doors on
GRAM products can, with advantage,
be cleaned with a spray and a soft
cloth. There are a number of different
spraying agents for this purpose on
the market. We recommend that you
contact your usual white goods supplier
for advise on the advantages and disadvantages of the individual products.
Warning
It is dangerous to use electrical apparatus, knives or sharp objects to accelerate defrost.

GB
Setting up and installation
Where to place the refrigerator/freezer
For safety reasons the refrigerator/
freezer must not be installed outdoors;
it must be placed in a dry room. Never
place the appliance close to sources
of heat such as cookers or radiators,
and avoid placing it in direct sunlight.
The surface on which the appliance
is placed must be plane. Do not use
a frame or similar. The small wheels
mounted at the rear of the refrigerator/freezer make it easy to place it in the
required position.
The refrigerator/freezer can stand freely
on the floor or be built into a kitchen ele-
ment or a refrigerator element.
It is important that the refrigerator/
freezer stands completely level and that
there is good air circulation over, under
and around it. The appliance can be
adjusted by turning the four adjusting
screws on the plinth. After adjustment,
the feet and the two rear wheels must
be in contact with the surface on which
the appliance stands.
The illustrations show how to create
sufficient air circulation around the cabi
net. The dimensions give the actual size
of openings. The circulation area must
be at least 200 cm2.
15
GB
16
17
Building into a kitchen element
When building into a kitchen element
ensure that there is sufficient ventilation
around the refrigerator/freezer to dissipate heat from the compressor. The
appliance can stand direct on the floor
or on its plinth. (16)
Building into a refrigerator element
Building into a refrigerator element follows the same principle as described
under 16. (17)
Electrical connection
The appliance is intended for connec-
tion to alternating current. The connec
tion values for voltage (V) and frequency (Hz) are given on the nameplate in
the cabinet. Power must be connected
via a wall socket with switch. The wall
socket should be easily accessible.
All earthing requirements stipulated by
the local electricity authority must be
observed. The appliance plug and wall
socket should then give correct earthing. If in doubt, contact your local supplier or an authorised electrician.
WARNING
The flexible cord (mains lead) fitted to
this appliance has three cores for use
with a 3-pin 13-amp or 3-pin 15-amp
plug. If a BS 1363 (13-amp) fused plug
is used, it should be fitted with a 13amp fuse.
16
IMPORTANT
The cores in this mains lead are coloured in accordance with the following
code:
GREEN-AND-YELLOW: EARTH )
BLUE: NEUTRAL
BROWN: LIVE
These colours might not correspond
with the colour markings identifying the
terminals in your plug.
Proceed as follows:
Connect the GREEN-AND-YELLOW
core to the plug terminal marked „E” or
by an earth symbol, or coloured GREEN
or GREEN-AND-YELLOW. Connect the
BLUE core to the plug terminal marked
„N” or coloured BLACK.
Connect the BROWN core to the plug
terminal marked „L” or coloured RED.
Starting up the refrigerator/
freezer
Start the refrigerator/freezer by plugging
into a wall socket. If the mains lead has
been damaged, it must be replaced with
a corresponding type supplied by Gram
Domestic A/S or a Gram Domestic serv-
