Operating your Unit
TEMPERATURE CONTROL
• Your fridge has one control for regulating
the temperature. The temperature control
is located at the rear, near the compressor.
• Depending on your room's ambient
temperature, you may need to adjust
the temperature setting to achieve your
desired temperature.
• The number on the thermostat dial does
not directly represent the temperature.
Instead, the larger the number is, the
lower the freezer interior temperature will
be. Dial position 1-2 will set your freezer
to approximately -12°C, 3-4 will set your
freezer to approximately -15°C, and dial
position 5-6 will set it to approximately
-20°C.
Note: If the unit is unplugged, lost power,
or turned off; you must wait 3 to 5 minutes
before Restarting the unit.
• If you choose to change the thermostat
setting, adjust thermostat control by one
numerical increment at a time. Allow
several hours for temperature to stabilize
between adjustments. Your first use,
you should set the thermostat to the
maximum position of 6 for the first 24 to
48 hours, after which you can set it to the
setting that best suites your needs.
NOISE FROM YOUR BAR FREEZER
• You may notice that your bar fridge makes
some unusual noises from time to time.
Most of these are perfectly normal, but
you should be aware of them!
• These noises are caused by the circulation
of the refrigerant liquid in the cooling
system. This is not a fault and will not
affect the performance of your unit and is
common with all modern fridges.
DEFROSTING YOUR BAR FREEZER
• For the most efficient operation and
minimum energy consumption, defrost the
freezer when the frost on the freezer walls
is excessive or >5mm thick. To minimize
disruption, choose a time when the stock
of frozen food is low.
Important! Do not use boiling water because
it may damage the plastic parts. In addition,
never use a sharp or metallic instrument
to remove frost as it may damage the
cooling coils and will void the warranty.
We recommend using the plastic scraper
provided with your unit.
• Remove the frozen food from the freezer
and place it in a cooler to protect the food.
• Unplug the bar freezer.
• During defrosting, the ice melts into the
cabinet. You can also use a plastic scraper
carefully.
• Clean the interior of the fridge and freezer
and remove any water.
• Reset the thermostat to desired setting.
• Allow the cabinet to cool for one hour.
• Return food to the freezer.
Helpful Tip!
Defrosting usually takes a few hours. Leaving
the door open will help speed the process.
Also, pouring warm water (not boiling) on
the ice/frost will help speed melting. If you
must use a scraper- please use caution
- it is very easy to damage the freezer
compartment and void your warranty.
