ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS

Before you insert the plug into the wall socket make sure that the voltage and the frequency shown in the rating plate inside the appliance corresponds to your electricity supply. Rating label is on the left hand side of fridge inner liner. We recommend that this appliance is connected to the mains supply via a suitable switched and fused socket in a readily accessible position. WARNING: When positioning the appliance ensure the supply cord is not trapped or damaged. Should the mains lead of the appliance become damaged or should it need replacing at any time, it must be replaced by a special purpose made mains lead which can only be obtained from a GRUNDIG Authorised Service Agent

WARNING! THIS APPLIANCE MUST BE EARTHED

If the f tted moulded plug is not suitable for your socket, then the plug should be cut off and an appropriate plug f tted. 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 ref t the fuse cover. In the event of losing the fuse cover the plug must not be used until a replacement fuse cover has been f tted. Colour of the replacement fuse cover must be the same colour as that visible on the pin face of the plug. Fuse covers can be obtained from a authorised service agent.

IMPORTANT! FITTING A DIFFERENT PLUG

As the colours of the wires in themains lead of this appliance may not correspond with the coloured markings identifying the terminals in your plug proceed as follows: (See diagram).

1. Connect the green-yellow or green (Earth) wire to the terminal in the plug marked 'E' or with the symbol or coloured green and yellow or green.

2. Connect the blue (Neutral) wire to the te minal in the plug marked 'N' or coloured black.

3. Connect the brown (Live) wire to the terminal in the plug marked 'L' or coloured red. With alternative plugs a 13A fuse must be f tted either in the plug or adaptor or in the main fuse box. If in doubt contact a qualif ed electrician.

WARNING: Do not locate extension sockets or charging transformers/power supplies or Lithium-Iron battery operated products adjacent to the compressor as they could overheat.

IMPORTANT INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

1. The space in the room where the appliance is installed must not be smaller than 10 cubic metres.

2. See pages 16 to 32 for detailed Installation Instructions including reversing door opening direction.

3. This appliance has been designed to operate in ambient temperatures up to 38 degrees C (90 degrees F) and is equipped with Freezer Guard technology which

ensures that even if the ambient temperature falls to -15 °C, frozen food in the freezer does not thaw thanks to this. 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 knob setting to suit your needs. If the ambient temperature is below 0°C, the food in the fridge compartment will freeze. So, we recommend you don’t use the fridge compartment in such low ambient conditions. You can continue using the freezer compartment as usual.

4. Do not place the appliance near cookers, radiators or in direct sunlight as this will cause your appliance to work harder. If installed next to a source of heat or freezer, maintain the following minimum side clearances:

From Cookers 50 mm (2")

From Radiators

From Freezers

5.

Refer to cleaning and care section to prepare your appliance for use.

6.

A special receptacle is supplied to store the mains plug during transit. The receptacle is ﬁxed at the back of the cabinet, on the side of the compressor. (See diagram) Gently remove the plug from the receptacle. Never pull the mains cord, you may damage the appliance. In the case of transportation,ensure you locate the plug in the receptacle provided to avoid transit damage.

STARTING

Final Check Before you start using the fridge/freezer check that:

1. The interior is dry and air can circulate freely at the rear of the cabinet.

2. Clean the interior as recommended under "CLEANING AND CARE."

3. Insert the plug into the wall socket and switch on the electricity supply.

• When the door is open the fridge interior light will come on

4. 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, whether the compressor is running or not which is quite normal.

5. Front edges of the cabinet may feel warm. This is normal. These areas are designed to be warm to avoid condensation.

6. "Do not load the appliance immediately it is switched on Wait until the correct storage temperature has been reached. We recommend that you check the temperature with an accurate thermometer (see; Temperature Control and Adjustment)"

STORING FROZEN FOOD

Prepacked commercially frozen food should be stored in accordance with the frozen food manufacturer's instructions for a frozen food storage compartment. To ensure that the high quality achieved by the frozen food manufacturer and the food retailer is maintained, the following should be remembered:

1. Put packets in the freezer as quickly as possible after purchase.

2. Ensure that contents are labelled and dated.

3. Do not exceed "Use By", "Best Before" dates on the packaging.

If there is a power failure do not open the door. Frozen food should not be affected if the failure lasts for less than 13 hrs. If the failure is longer, then the food should be checked and either eaten immediately or cooked and then refrozen.

FREEZING FRESH FOOD

Please observe the following instructions to obtain the best results. Do not freeze too large a quantity at any one time. The quality of the food is best preserved when it is frozen right through to the core as quickly as possible. Do not exceed the freezing capacity of your appliance in 24 h which is 4 kg (8.8 lb)

Placing warm food into the freezer compartment causes the refrigeration compressor to operate continuously until the food is frozen solid. This can temporarily lead to excessive cooling of the refrigeration compartment.

You may place fresh food to be frozen in any part of the freezer.

Take special care not to mix already frozen food and fresh food.

MAKING ICE CUBES

Fill the ice - cube tray 3/4 full with water. Loosen frozen trays with the handle of a spoon, never use sharp edged objects such as knives, forks.

Note: If freshly made ice cubes are not consumed for several weeks, they will slowly reduce in size and eventually disappear completely.

11

DEFROSTING

A) FRIDGE COMPARTMENT

The fridge compartment defrosts automatically. The defrosting water runs to the drain tube via a collection container at the back of the appliance (1).(see diagram) During defrosting water droplets may form at the back of the fridge

compartment where concealed evaporator is located. Some droplets may remain on the liner and refreeze when defrosting is completed. Do not use pointed or sharp edged objects such as knives, forks to remove the droplets which have frozen.

If at any time the defrost water does not drain from the collection channel,

check to ensure that no food particles have blocked the drain tube. The drain tube can be cleared by pushing the special plastic plunger provided down the

drain tube (2). If the frost layer reaches about 1/4"(7 mm), reduce the setting (i.e. from 4 to 1) to restart automatic defrosting.

B) FREEZER COMPARTMENT

The freezer compartment defrosts automatically.

Warnings!

The fan inside the freezer compartment circulates cold air. Never insert any object through the guard. Do not allow children to play with the freezer fan. Never store products that contain

inﬂammable propellant gas (eg dispensers,

spray cans etc.) or explosive substances. Don’t cover the shelves with any protective

materials, which may obstruct air circulation.

Do not allow children to play with the appliance or tamper with the controls. Do not obstruct the freezer fan guard to ensure that you obtain the best possible performance from your appliance.

Zero temperature compartment

This compartment has been designed to store frozen food which would be thawed slowly (meat, ﬁsh, chicken,etc.) as required. Zero temperature compartment is the coldest place of your refrigerator in which dairy products (cheese, butter), meat, ﬁsh or chicken may be kept at ideal storage conditions. Vegetables and/or fruits must not be placed in this compartment.

12

CLEANING AND CARE

** We recommend that you switch off the appliance at the socket outlet and pull out the mains plug before cleaning.

** Never use any sharp abrasive instrument, soap, household cleaner, detergent and wax polish for cleaning.

** Use luke warm water to clean the cabinet of the appliance and wipe it dry.

** Use a damp cloth wrung out in a solution of one teaspoon of bicarbonate of

soda to one pint of water to clean the interior and wipe it dry.

** Make sure that no water enters the lamp housing.

** Excess deposits of ice should be removed on a regular basis with the handle of a spoon. Large accumulation of ice will impair the performance of the appliance.

** If the appliance is not going to be used for a long period of time, unplung the

appliance, remove all food, clean it and leave the door open.

** Check door seals regularly to ensure they are clean and free from food particles.

** Removal of door tray

• To remove door racks, remove all the contents and then simply push the

door rack upwards from the base.

** To remove a freezer drawer, pull it as far as possible, and then tilt it upwards, and then pull it out completely.

REPLACING THE INTERIOR LIGHT BULB

To change the Bulb/LED used for illumination of your refrigerator, call your AuthorisedService. The lamp(s) used in this appliance is not suitable for household room illumination. The intended purpose of this lamp is to assist the user to place foodstuffs in the refrigerator/freezer in a safe and comfortable way. The lamps used in this appliance have to withstand extreme physical conditions such as temperatures below -20°C.

13

DO'S AND DON'TS

Do- Clean and defrost your appliance regularly (See "Defrosting") Do- Keep raw meat and poultry below cooked food and dairy products. Do- Take off any unusable leaves on vegetables and wipe off any soil. Do- Leave lettuce, cabbage, parsley and caulif ower on the stem. Do- Wrap cheese f rstly in greaseproof paper and then in a polythene bag excluding as much air as possible. For best results take out of the fridge

compartment an hour before eating. Do- Wrap raw meat and poultry loosely in polythene or aluminium foil. This prevents drying. Do- Wrap f sh and offal in polythene bags. Do- Wrap food which have a strong odour or can dry out in polythene bags, aluminium foil or place in an airtight container. Do- Wrap bread well to keep it fresh. Do- Chill white wines, beer, lager and mineral water before serving. Do- Check contents of the freezer every so often. Do- Keep food for as short a time as possible and adhere to "Best Before", "Use by" etc. dates. Do- Store commercially frozen food in accordance with the instructions given

on the packets that you buy.

Do- Always choose high quality fresh food and be sure it is thoroughly clean

before you freeze it. Do- Prepare fresh food for freezing in small portions to ensure rapid freezing. Do- Wrap all food in aluminium foil or freezer quality polythene bags and

make sure any air is excluded. Do- Wrap frozen food when you buy it and put it in to the freezer as soon as possible. Do- Defrost food in the fridge compartment. Do- Remove ice cream from the freezer 10-20 minutes before serving.

Don't- Store bananas in your fridge compartment. Don't- Store melon in your fridge. It can be chilled for short periods as long as

it is wrapped to avoid it f avouring other food. Don't- Store poisonous or any dangerous substances in your appliance. It has been designed for the storage of edible foodstuffs only. Don't- Consume food which has been stored for an excessive time in the fridge. Don't- Store cooked and fresh food together in the same container. They should be packaged and stored seperately. Don't- Let defrosting food or food juices drip onto food. Don't- Leave the door open for long periods as this will make the appliance more costly to run and cause excessive ice formation. Don't- Use pointed sharp edged objects such as knives, forks to remove the ice. Don't- Put hot food into the appliance. Let it cool down f rst. Don't- Put liquid-f lled bottles or sealed cans containing carbonated liquids into the freezer as they may burst. Don't- Exceed the maximum freezing loads (4 kg in any 24 hours) when freezing fresh food. Don't- Give children ice-cream and water ices direct from the freezer. The low temperature may cause 'freezer burns' on lips. Don't- Freeze f zzy drinks. Don't- Try to keep frozen food which has thawed, it should be eaten within 24 hours or cooked and refrozen. Don't- Remove items from the freezer with wet hands. Don't- Close the freezer door before placing the compartment cover in its place.

Don’t- Leave frozen food at room temperature to thaw; the best way to defrost

food is to put it in the fridge to thaw slowly. Make sure you avoid defrosting food or food juices drip onto other food.

ENERGY SAVING TIPS

1- Ensure your appliance is installed in a well ventilated area. If the ambient

temperature is low (but in no case lower than 5 degrees C), then the energy saving will be more. In this case, check temperatures of fridge and freezer compartments with an accurate thermometer and lower the temperature setting if necessary.

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 frozen 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 your appliance regularly (see "Defrosting")

5- Defrost frozen food in the fridge compartment, so that frozen food acts as

an ice pack to assist cooling in the fridge.

PROBLEM SOLVING

If the appliance does not operate, check whether:

• The plug is inserted properly in the socket and that the power supply is on. (To check the power supply to the socket, plug in another appliance)

• The fuse has blown/circuit breaker has tripped/main distribution switch has been turned off.

• The temperature control has been set correctly.

• New plug is wired correctly if you have changed the ﬁtted moulded plug.

If the appliance is still not operating after the above checks, please refer to the section on “How To Obtain Service”.

Please ensure that above checks have been made as a charge will be made if no fault is found.

Does Grundig offer replacements? This is a repair-only guarantee. On occasion, the Manufacturer may at its sole discretion, replace your product with a new product instead of carrying out a repair. Where a replacement is offered, this would normally be an identical model, but when this is not possible, a model of similar specification will be provided. The Manufacturer will cover the costs and arrange for the delivery of the new product and for the return of the old product. Any costs related to disconnecting the faulty product and installing the replacement product will not be borne by the Manufacturer unless previously agreed to in writing. The original guarantee will continue to apply to the replacement product; the new product will not come with a new guarantee.

When will the repair take place? Our Engineers work Monday to Friday 9.00am to 5.00pm. Appointments outside these hours may be possible at the sole discretion of the Manufacturer but cannot be guaranteed. Whilst our Engineers will endeavour to minimize inconvenience and to meet requests for specific timed appointments, this cannot be guaranteed. We will not be liable for delays or if it is unable to carry out a repair because a convenient appointment cannot be arranged.

Will there be any charge for the repairs? It is your responsibility to provide evidence to the Engineer that your product is covered by this guarantee with a proof of purchase. The Manufacturer reserves the right to charge for the reasonable cost of any service call if:

• You cannot provide evidence that your product is covered by this guarantee.

• Where a service call has been made and the engineer finds that there is no fault with your product.

• That your product has not been installed or operated in accordance with the User Instructions Booklet.

• That the fault was caused by something other than faulty materials, defective components or manufacturing defects.

• For missed appointments.

Payment of these costs are due immediately upon the Engineer providing you with an invoice. The Manufacturer reserves the right to terminate the guarantee if you fail to pay the costs for the service call in a timely manner. If you are a resident of the United Kingdom, this guarantee will be governed by English law and subject to the English Courts, save where you live in another part of the United Kingdom, in which case the law and courts of that location will apply. If you are resident in the Republic of Ireland, this guarantee will be governed by Irish law and the Irish courts will have jurisdiction.
