INSTALLATION UNPACKING THE APPLIANCE Remove the external & internal packaging. When unpacking the appliance please check for any damage. If damage is found, do not connect to the power source and contact the Authorised Service Provider. Check that the following items are contained within the packaging: 1 adjustable shelf 1 small glass shelf Before connecting the appliance to the power source, let it stand upright for approximately 4 hours. This will reduce the possibility of a malfunction in the cooling system from handling during transportation. Remove any protective film from the outer surface. Clean the interior surface with lukewarm water using a soft cloth. INSTALLING THE REFRIGERATOR This appliance is designed to be free standing only, and should not be recessed or built‐in. Place your appliance on a solid, level floor that is strong enough to support the appliance when it is fully loaded. Use the adjustable feet at the bottom of the appliance to compensate for any unevenness of the floor. Allow at least 10 cm of space around the back and sides of the appliance, which allows the proper air circulation, and at least 20cm above the unit. Locate the appliance away from direct sunlight and sources of heat (stove, heater, radiator, etc.). Direct sunlight may affect the acrylic coating and heat sources may increase electrical consumption. Extreme cold ambient temperatures may also cause the appliance not to perform properly. Avoid locating the appliance in moist areas. Plug the appliance into an exclusive, properly installed‐grounded wall outlet. Do not under any circumstances cut or remove the third (ground) prong from the power cord. Any questions concerning power and/or grounding should be directed toward a certified electrician or an Authorised Service Centre. After plugging the appliance into a wall outlet (220‐240V 50Hz), allow the unit to cool down for 2~3 hours before placing food in the freezer and refrigeration compartments. If moving the appliance, avoid tilting the appliance more than 45°. At no time should the appliance be turned upside down. ADJUSTING THE DOOR The door can be adjusted to open from either the left or right hand side. Follow the instructions below (this is ... -

Page 7: Cleaning
CARE AND MAINTENANCE CLEANING THE APPLIANCE Upon installation of your new appliance, it is recommended that it be cleaned thoroughly, and cleaned once a month after that. To clean the appliance, first turn the thermostat to 0, turn off the power, unplug from the power socket and remove all food and shelving. Wash the inside with a damp warm cloth containing a water and baking soda solution. The solution should be about 2 tablespoons of baking soda to a quart of water. Wash the shelving with a mild detergent solution. Be sure to keep the door gasket (seal) clean to keep the unit running efficiently. The outside of the appliance should be cleaned with mild detergent and warm water. Dry the interior and exterior with a soft cloth. It is recommended that the unit be cleaned each time it is defrosted to help keep the unit odour free and running efficiently. Do not use oils, abrasive cleaners, petroleum products, acids or alkaline detergents, as they can damage the appliance. MOVING THE APPLIANCE Remove all the food. Securely tape down all loose items inside the appliance. Tape the doors shut. Be sure the appliance stays in the upright position during transportation. ENERGY SAVING TIPS The appliance should be located in the coolest area of the room, away from heat producing appliances or heating ducts, and out of the direct sunlight. Let hot foods cool to room temperature before placing in the appliance. Overloading the appliance forces the compressor to run longer. Foods that coo or freeze too slowly may lose quality, or spoil. Be sure to wrap foods properly, and wipe containers dry before placing them in the appliance. This cuts down on frost build‐up inside the freezer and bad odours. The freezer compartment should not be lined with aluminium foil, wax paper, or paper towels. Liners interfere with cold air circulation, making the freezer less efficient. Organize and label food to reduce door openings and extended searches. Remove as many items as needed at one time, and close the door as soon as possible. When adding fresh food, try to add it to the bottom of the freezer, surrounded by food that is already frozen. After adding fresh food to the freezer, allow 24 hours for it to be fully frozen before adding any more fresh food. DATA LABEL & ELECTRICAL DIAGRAM ... -
