Introducing Your New Table Top Fridge
Install Your New Table Top Fridge
Location
When selecting a position to place your Appliance you should make sure that the floor is flat and firm, and the room well ventilated. Avoid locating your Appliance near a heat source, e.g. cooker, boiler or radiator. Also avoid direct sunlight in outbuildings or sun lounges. It must therefore be installed so that the Appliance has at least 10cm (2 1/2") of free space and the sides have 2cm (3/4"). The Table Top Fridge door can either open to the right or the left, depending on whichever suits you. See page 5 if you want to reverse the door swing. Do not drape your Appliance with any covering.
Levelling the Table Top Fridge
Remove the packaging support from the base of the Appliance and replace with the 2 Levelling Feet. Make sure the Appliance is level. Use the Levelling Feet at the front. If the Appliance is not level, the doors and magnetic seal alignments will be affected.
Cleaning before use
Wipe the inside of the Appliance with a weak solution of bicarbonate soda. Then rinse with warm water using a damp sponge or cloth. Wash the baskets and shelves in warm soapy water and dry completely before replacing in the Fridge. The external parts of the Fridge can be cleaned with wax polish. If you require more information refer to Cleaning on page 4.
Before plugging in YOU MUST
Check that you have a socket which is compatible with the plug supplied with the Appliance. If not, see the section called ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS on page 7.
Before switching on!
DO NOT SWITCH ON UNTIL TWO HOURS AFTER MOVING THE APPLIANCE. The coolant fluid needs time to settle.
Please Note: The Ice Box compartment is for ice only and not for freezing food.
Before use
Please read these instructions carefully before using your new Matsui Appliance . The Appliance is for indoor, domestic use only.

Switching on your Table Top Fridge
1 Before connecting the Appliance to the mains supply
make sure that the thermostat control dial is set at position Off. This is located on the inside the Fridge next to the Ice box.
2 Turn the thermostat knob clockwise to set it to the desired
position, bear in mind that the higher the number, the colder the temperature.
3 To ensure that the Appliance is cool enough to sufficiently
chill your food wait 24 hours before filling it with food.
Adjusting the temperature
The internal temperature of your Appliance is controlled by a thermostat. Position 6 makes the Appliance coldest. Position 1 makes it warmest and Off turns the Appliance Off. The recommended setting for the Appliance is between 1 and 4 for colder working environments (ie. during Winter) and 5-6 for hotter environments. The temperature of the Appliance may not operate at the correct temperature if it is in a particularly hot or cold room or if you open the Appliance door often.
Noises inside the Table Top Fridge!
that it makes some rather unusual noises. Most of these are perfectly normal, but you should be aware of them!
GURGLING, WHOOSHING These noises are caused by the circulation of the refrigerant liquid in the cooling system. It has become more pronounced since the introduction of CFC free gases. This is not a fault and will not affect the performance of your Appliance.
HUMMING, PURRING OR PULSATING This is the compressor motor working, as it pumps the refrigerant around the system.
Is the Table Top Fridge cold enough?
If you are at all concerned that your Appliance is not being kept cold enough, or you occasionally wish to check the temperature, you can purchase a Fridge/Freezer thermometer. These are available from most supermarkets and hardware shops. Place the thermometer in the coldest part of your Appliance (located at the back of the fridge, below the shelf) , where it can be read easily. Leave overnight, the correct temperature should be between 0°C and 5°C. See ‘Adjusting the temperature ’.
Shopping for chilled foods
Don’t buy in your lunch hour!
Unless you have a Appliance at work to keep the food cold in the afternoon. Leaving food in your car or at room temperature for a prolonged period of time could raise food temperature to dangerous level allowing harmful bacteria to grow.
Keep chilled foods together
Try to keep chilled food together whilst shopping and on the journey home as this will help to keep the food cooler.
Use a cool bag
Special insulated bags can be bought from most supermarkets and hardware shops. These keep food cold for longer, but are only for getting chilled foods home, not storing it.
Unwrap as soon as you get home
Always unpack and place chilled foods in the Appliance before storing dry food-stuffs.

Tips for keeping food perfect in the Table Top Fridge
Take extra care with meat and fish
Cooked meats should always be stored on a shelf above raw meats to avoid bacterial transfer. Keep raw meats on a plate which is large enough to collect juices and cover it with cling film or foil.
Leave space around food
This allows cold air to circulate around the Appliance, ensuring all parts of the Appliance are kept cool.
Wrap up food!
To prevent transfer of flavours and drying out, food should be separately packed or covered. Fruit and vegetables need not be wrapped.
Pre-cooked food should be cooled properly
Always let pre-cooked food cool down before you put it in the Appliance. This will stop the internal temperature of the Appliance from rising.
Shut the door!
To prevent cold air escaping, try to limit the number of times you open the door. When returning from shopping, sort foods to be kept in your Appliance while the door is closed and only open it to put food in or take food out.
NOTE:
ALWAYS WRAP AND STORE RAW MEAT, POULTRY AND FISH ON THE LOWEST SHELF AT THE BOTTOM OF THE APPLIANCE. THIS WILL STOP THEM DRIPPING ONTO, OR TOUCHING OTHER FOODS. DO NOT STORE INFLAMMABLE GASES OR LIQUIDS IN THE APPLIANCE.
Defrosting
After a period of time frost will build up in the Ice Box. Temporarily this can be scraped away using a plastic scraper. NEVER use a metal or sharp instrument. Complete defrosting will however become necessary approximately once per year, or if the frost layer exceeds 5cm (2”) to maintain the efficiency of the Fridge. This should be carried out if the frost build up cannot be scraped away, or if it begins to interfere with the food storage. Choose a time when the stock of food is low and proceed as follows:
1 Take out the chilled food, turn the Fridge off at the mains
supply and leave the door open. Ideally the chilled food should be put into another refrigerator. If this is not possible wrap the food, in several sheets of newspaper or large towels and keep it in a cool place.
2 Scrape away as much frost build up as possible using a plastic
scraper. Thawing of the remainder can be speeded up by placing bowls of hot water inside the Fridge cabinet and closing the door. As the solid frost loosens, prize it away with the plastic scraper and remove.
3 When defrosting is completed, clean the Fridge as described in
the previous column.

Cleaning the outside of the Table Top
Use standard furniture polish to clean the Appliance exterior.
Make sure that the door is closed, preventing polish getting on the magnetic door seal or inside on to the food. Do not use harsh cleaners, scouring pads or solvents to clean any part of your Appliance, as this may scratch the enamel.
Cleaning the inside of the Table Top
Make sure the Fridge has been turned off at the mains before cleaning. The inside of the Fridge can be cleaned with a weak solution of bicarbonate of soda. Rinse with a damp sponge and wipe dry. Reconnect to the mains supply.
Cleaning tips
• Clean when food stocks are low.
NOTE: Do not use harsh cleaners, scouring pads or solvents
to clean any part of the Appliance.
