Before use

·Remove all securing tapes.

·Wash the inside of the appliance with lukewarm

water with a little bicarbonate of soda added (5ml to 0,5 litre of water). Do not use soap or detergent as the smell may linger. Dry the appliance thoroughly.

Do not use detergents, abrasive powders, highly perfumed cleaning products, wax, polishes or products containing alcohol.

·Before inserting the power plug into the outlet and

switching on the cabinet for the first time, leave it standing upright for about 30 minutes, or for 2 hours if it was transported horizontally. Otherwise the compressor may sustain damage. This time will allow the oil sufficient time to return to the compressor.

Using the fridge

To start the fridge and thermostat control

Turn the thermostat control to the desired position. 1 : The lowest position of the thermostat control results in the highest temperature inside the cabinet. 6 : The highest position of the thermostat control results in the lowest temperature inside the cabinet. 0 :Off. Allow the cabinet to run for a period of 24 hours whenever the temperature setting is changed. This will allow the temperature to stabilise inside the cabinet.

Temperature inside the fridge

A suitable temperature inside the fridge is approx. +5°C. If the thermostat control is set too cold, food with a high water content may start to freeze if it has been placed in the coldest places in the fridge. (+ warm, - cold) Meat, fish and milk should be put in the coldest part of the cabinet. The temperature will be affected by:

· How often the door is opened

· How much food is stored

· Position of the appliance (See chapter

Installation)

Measuring the temperature

If the temperature is measured using a standard, single t hermometer, this should be put in a glass of water centrally placed inside the cabinet. This will reflect the temperature inside the food products. Do not place the thermometer hanging or lying directly on the shelf.

· Distribute foodstuffs to allow cold air to circulate freely between the products.

· Do not place food products directly against the cooling plate on the rear wall since they may freeze in this case.

· Also never put warm products into the cabinet. Wait until they have cooled down.

· Cover all foods properly to avoid odours and flavours from tainting other food.

Switching off

Set the thermostat control to the "0" position. Unplug the power supply plug from the wall socket.

Cabinet interior

The shelves and door compartments are removable and can easily be re-arranged. Certain shelves must be lifted up by the rear edge to enable them to be removed. The lower door compartment and the glass shelf above the salad drawer must not be moved. They are required for proper air circulation inside the cabinet. Shelves with a raised edge should be placed with the raised edge facing the rear wall of the cabinet, and thus prevent food products from touching the cooling plate.

Dividing plate

The dividing plate separates the chiller compartment from the fridge. The dividing plate features a grille that can be opened and closed to control the amount of cold air entering the chiller compartment. When the grille is opened, the chiller compartment will become colder . In fridges with a single door, the dividing plate can be moved to increase the size of the refrigerator compartment. The dividing plate should always be placed under the drip channel and opposite a door compartment.
