should be carried out by a qualified and competent
personnel to the relevant National Standards.

• This appliance is heavy. Care should be taken
when moving it.

• Do not 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, please
contact our extended warranty administrators
who will put you in touch with your local Service
Force Repair Centre for further advice.

• The appliance should be left for 2 hours after
installation before it is turned on, in order to
allow the refrigerant to settle.

• 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.

Child Safety

• This appliance is designed to be operated by
adults. Do not allow children to tamper with the
controls or play with the product.

• Keep all packaging away from children.

General Safety

• This appliance contains hydrocarbons in its cooling
unit; maintenance and recharging must therefore
only be carried out by authorised technicians.

• 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
cookers, 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.

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.

• Ice lollies can cause ‘frost/freezer burns’ if
consumed straight from the freezer.

• 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.

Maintenance and Cleaning

Ecological hints

To save energy and help protect the environment, we
recommend that you follow these hints.

Do not install the appliance close to sources of heat such
as a boiler or radiator.

Locate the appliance in a well-ventilated room and make
sure that any air openings of the appliance are not
obstructed.

Pack all foods into airtight packages before placing them
into the freezer compartment.

Food, which is to be frozen (when cool), should be placed
in the fridge compartment before being transferred to
the freezer.

Try to avoid keeping the door open for long periods or
opening the door too frequently as warm air will enter
the cabinet and cause the compressor to switch on
unnecessarily often.

Ensure there are no obstructions preventing the door
from closing properly.

Warning

IF YOU ARE DISCARDING AN OLD APPLIANCE THAT
HAS A LOCK OR CATCH ON THE DOOR,YOU MUST
ENSURE THAT IT IS MADE UNUSABLE TO PREVENT
YOUNG CHILDREN BEING TRAPPED INSIDE.

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 . If these temperatures are exceeded i.e. colder
or warmer, then the appliance may not operate correctly.

Important

It must be possible to disconnect the appliance from the
mains power supply; the plugs must therefore be easily
accessible after installation.

Electrical connection

Any electrical work required to install this appliance
should be carried out by a qualified electrician or
competent person.

WARNING: THIS APPLIANCE MUST BE
EARTHED.

Should the appliance power supply cables
need to be replaced, this must be carried
out by a Service Force agent (see page 22)

The manufacturer declines any liability
should this safety easure not be observed.

Before switching on, make sure the electricity supply
voltage is the same as that indicated on the appliance’s
rating plate. (See picture on page 5).

The appliances are supplied with 2 x 13amp independent
plugs.

In the event of having to change the fuse in the plug
supplied, a 13amp ASTA approved BS 1363/A fuse must be
used.

Should the plug need to be replaced for any reason,
proceed as described below.The wires in the mains lead
are coloured in accordance with the following code:

Green and Yellow - Earth

Blue - Neutral

Brown - Live

If you fit your own plug, the colours of the wires in the
mains lead of your appliance may not correspond with
the markings identifying the terminals in your plug.

Proceed as follows:

1. Connect the Green and Yellow (earth) wire to the

terminal in the plug which is marked with the letter "E"or
the earth symbol or coloured green and yellow.

2. Connect the Blue (neutral) wire to the terminal in the plug
which is marked with the letter "N" or coloured black.

3. Connect the Brown (live) wire to the terminal in the
plug which is marked with the letter "L" or coloured red.

4. Upon completion there must be no cut, or stray
strands of wire present and the cord clamp must be
secure over the outer sheath.

WARNING: A cut off plug inserted into a
13 amp socket is a serious safety (shock)
hazard.
Ensure that the cut off plug is disposed of
safely.

The plugs must still be accessible after the
appliance has been installed.

The appliance should not be connected to
the electrical supply by means of an
extension cable.

Switching off

The appliance is switched off by holding in button (B)
for more than 1 second. After this, a countdown on
the temperature display from -3 -2 -1 will be shown.

When the appliance is switched off, the display (D)
also goes off.

Temperature setting buttons

The temperature is adjusted using the “C“ (+) and
“E“ (-) buttons.These buttons are connected to the
temperature display.

The temperature display is switched over from the
display of the ACTUAL temperature (Temperature
display is illuminated) to the display of the DESIRED
temperature (Temperature display flashes) by
pressing one of the two buttons,“C“ (+) or “E“ (-).

Each time one of the two buttons is pressed again
the DESIRED temperature is adjusted by 1 °C. The
DESIRED temperature must be reached within 24
hours.

If neither button is pressed, the temperature display
automatically switches back after a short period
(approx. 5 sec.) to the display of the ACTUAL
temperature.

DESIRED temperature means:

The temperature that has been selected for inside
the fridge.The DESIRED temperature is indicated by
flashing numbers.

ACTUAL temperature means:

The temperature display indicates the current
temperature inside the fridge. The ACTUAL
temperature is indicated with illuminated numbers.

temperatures)

Warning

Allow the appliance to stand for 2 hours after
installation.

Insert the plugs into the wall socket.
If the display is OFF press the ON/OFF button.
The green mains indicator light illuminates.
The appliance starts.
Press either the “C“ (+) or “E“ (-) button. The

temperature display switches over and the DESIRED
temperature currently set flashes on the
temperature display.

Set the required temperature by pressing the “C“ (+)
or “E“ (-) buttons (see section "Temperature setting
buttons"). The temperature display will immediately
show the changed setting. Each time a button is
pressed the temperature is adjusted by 1 °C.

From a food safety point of view +5 °C should be
considered sufficiently cold for storing food in the
fridge.

Once the required temperature has been set, after a
short period (approx. 5 sec.) the temperature
display will change and again indicate the current

ACTUAL temperature inside the fridge. The display
will change from flashing to continuous illumination.

Information! When the setting is changed, the
compressor does not start immediately if automatic
defrosting is currently taking place. As the storage
temperature within the fridge is reached quickly you
can store food immediately after switching on.
