Before Putting Into Use
Carefully remove your Fridge from the box. You may wish to retain the packaging for future use.
Position the Fr idge:
-On a stable flat surface
-Where it has sufficient ventilation
-Close to a mains supply socket
Before connec tion the ap pliance to elect rical pow er supply, leave it to s tand for about 2 hours, which will reduce the possibility of malfunctions in the cooling system due to transport handling. Remove any packaging materials and tape from the inside of the fridge before use. If young children are present, we recommend that a simple safety catch is fitted to eliminate the possibility of children becoming trapped inside. Behind the appliance should be at least 3 inches. There should be at least 3 inches between both sides of the chiller and other article. Make sure that the fridge is stable. Use the leveling feet to correct any instability. Ensure that t he mains pow er cable is not plac ed where it can be inadv ertently pulled or pinched. Wipe the inside of the fridge with a damp cloth and the outside with a soft dry cloth. Plug into the mains supply and switch the socket on. Adjust the t emperatur e control between 1 and 7 as desired to star t the cooling process. Refer to the following sections for temperature control. Adequate ventilation must be provided so that any radiated heat cannot reach the appliance.
Using Your Frid ge
Guidelines for Use of Your Fridge
. Beverages should be stored upright in sealed containers to avoid leakage. . Do not overload - always allow room for cold air to circulate around the contents. . Do not open the door unnecessarily or leave the door ajar. . D o not cover the shelves with any materi al such as alum inum foi l as this wil l impede air
circulation within the cabinet.
. Set the t hermostat f rom higher to lower settings as soon as pos sible ( depends on how
loaded the appliance is and ambient temperatures etc.)
. Ice and f r ost l ayer s i nc r ease e ner gy consump ti on, s o c lean the app l ianc e as soon as the
frost layer is 3-5mm thick.
Temperature Dial
The temperature dial is located at the top of the fridge cabinet. The '0' position is off.
Page 6
Turn the dial clockwise to reduce the temperature. Aligning the arrow with 7 on the dial will produce the l ow est tem per ature. Note that you do n ot nee d to hav e the tem p er ature at i ts lowest sett ing for normal oper ation. The op timum storage tem peratur e is app roximatel y 6 degrees cent igrade (bet ween 3&4 on the di al). The rear of the fr idge is coolest, near t he refrigerating element. If in doubt, check the temperature with a fridge thermometer.

Trouble-Shooting Guide
Sometimes you may come across minor problems that in m ost cases do not require a servic e call and can be easil y elim inated. The pr oblem may hav e resulte d fr om imp roper handing and / or installation of t he appliance. Pl ease refer to the b elow trouble-shooting guide to assis t you in i denti fying th e pos sib le c ause and sol utio n to your pr obl em. S hould the problem still persist after completing these check-points, contact the nearest authorized service agent in your area for assistance.
The Appliance Fails to Operate After Connecting to Electrical Power Supply
Check if the power cord is properly connected. Check the power supply in the electrical outlet. (blown fuse / circuit breaker). Make sure the appliance is switched on. (thermostat knob in operating position)
Continuous Operation of the Cooling Sy stem
The door is frequently opened or left open for too long. The door is not properly closed (the door may sag; the gasket may be polluted or
damaged). Perhaps you may have overloaded the appliance. The reason may be inadequate ventilation of the compressor (assure adequate air
circulation).
Ice Formation on the Inner Rear Wall
As long as the defrost water r uns to the c hannel an d thr ough the outlet to the dr ai n pan on the compressor, automatic defrosting of the appliance is assured. In case the ice formation on the inner back wall is increased (3-5in.), ice should be manuall y defr osted. Set the therm ostat knob to STOP ( 0 ) posi tion and leave the door open. Never use electric devices for defrosting and do not scrape the ice or frost layer with sharp objects.
After defrosting is complete, turn the knob to desired position and close the door. The cause of increased ice formation may be one of the following: . the door does not seal well (clean the gasket if it is contaminated, or replace it is
damaged) . the door is frequently opened or left too long . the food stored in the appliance was warm. . the food or dish is touching the inner back wall.
