Important Never store inflammable or explosive items and strong corrosive acids or alkalis in the appliance. This is a household appliance, which is produced in accordance with the national standard. It is intended for food storage only, not for storage of blood, medicine and biological products. To prevent risk of fire, keep the appliance away from petrol or any other inflammables.
Before First Use You must allow the fridge to settle for at least twenty four hours prior to switching the power on. It is recommended that you clean the interior of the appliance prior to first use, using a solution of bicarbonate of soda and warm water and then thoroughly drying the interior. The fridge may have an odour to it at first use. This will disappear as the appliance cools. Please note: The appliance will work continuously until it comes down to the correct temperature.
Use Fridge • Never put liquids in the refrigerator uncovered. • Never put hot foods in the refrigerator. Warm food should be allowed to cool to room temperature before being put into the refrigerator. • Nothing should rest against the rear wall of the refrigerator, as this will cause frost and possible condensation problems which will be difficult to remove. • Make sure food is clean and any extra water is wiped away before putting into the fridge.
• Follow the instructions on the food packaging for storage of frozen food. If no information is provided, foods should not be stored for more than three months after the purchase date. • Store food in small packages (ideally less than 2.5kg). This reduces the freezing time and improves the quality of the food after thawing. • Wrap food before putting into the freezer. To stop the wrapping sticking together, ensure it is dry.
Storage The fridge section is for short term food storage. Although the temperature can be maintained between 0-10˚C, extended periods of food storage is not recommended. 1 As the cold air circulates within the fridge, the temperature can vary between the different sections. As such, foods should be stored in different sections according to type. Section 6 is the coldest part of the fridge. 4 5 2 6 3 7 fig. 1 1. Butter 2. Food in jars and bottles 3. Drinks , e.g. milk 4.

Ventilation The main consideration when installing any refrigeration unit into a fitted kitchen is ventilation. The heat removed from the cooling compartment needs to be dissipated into the atmosphere. Incorrect ventilation can lead to premature compressor failure, excessive power consumption and total system failure.
Important Please follow the instructions to install this unit. The open channel at the rear is clearly shown. For the correct operation of the appliance it is important that the top of the housing unit is not blocked off. A channel depth of 40-50mm is normal with most units. A hole is shown in the base shelf of the unit; this allows air to be drawn over the compressor & heat exchange. Some installers fit a decorative plinth vent. In most cases this is not required, but is a welcome aesthetic addition.
Fitting the Product Into the Cabinet 1. R emove the gasket protection pieces: The gasket protectors prevent excessive seal compression during transport and are required during the installation process. Remove the gasket protector from each door (fig 6) and proceed with the installation. Cover caps are provided to fill the hole; take care when inserting these. 2.
top edge of the product (fig.7) (b). The trim piece should be fitted loosely at this stage to allow access to the top fixing brackets. 4. Fitting the magnetic seal strips: Two magnetic seals are supplied to fill the gap between the cabinet and the edge of the products. These simply fit against the left and right edges. To make it easier, it is useful to apply a little sticky tape to the top and bottom of each strip to prevent curling. Note that the seal may need to be cut to length. 5.
8. Fitting the bottom cabinet fixing bracket: sliding bracket is provided to A secure the non-hinge side of the product to the cabinet. This is fitted to the bottom of the product using two machine screws, as shown below. A guide piece is also provided to ensure the unit is aligned when installed. Fit the bracket and guide, as shown but do not tighten the securing screws to allow the bracket to slide left and right. Guide piece simply slotted in to the fixing bracket fig. 10 fig.
At this stage ensure that the product is centrally aligned within the housing and then remove the guide pieces from the hinges. 10. Securing the product to the housing: Secure the product to the housing at the hinge side by using two screws in each hinge. The fixing holes in each hinge as shown in figure 10. 11.
Fitting the Cabinet Fascia Doors First, fit the upper fascia by following the steps below. After fitting the upper fascia in the correct position, use the lower edge of the upper fascia as a guide for positioning the lower fascia (A distance between the two fascias when installed is normally between 2 and 4mm) and fit the lower fascia. 1. With the door open and using the fitting guides, position the door in the required position with respect to the cabinet (figure 14). 2.
of appropriate length. Please take care to ensure the screws selected will not punch through the fascia door. Under end face of fascia 4. Remove the fitting guides. 5. Attach the fascia door assembly to the refrigerator (onto the height adjustment screws) and loosely fit the securing nuts. At this stage the final vertical and horizontal position of the fascia assembly may need adjustment (figure 17). Fitting guides fig. 19 6.
Adjusting the Position of the Fascia Doors The position of the fascia doors can be made in all 3 axes by following the guide shown below (figure 20). If the range of adjustment detailed below is not enough then the refrigerator is not located correctly in the cabinet and/ or the upper fascia fixing plates are incorrectly positioned. Horizontal Adjustment (Y): 1. Loosen the upper fixing plate nuts (B). 2. Slide the plate left or right as required; this gives approximately 5mm of adjustment. 3.
Depth Adjustment (Z): Ensure that the vertical and horizontal positions are correct before adjusting the depth. 1. Loosen the depth adjustment screw (C). 2. Move the fascia in or out, as required; this gives an adjustment of approximately 3mm. the lower fascia brackets are slotted to allow alignment of the fascia at the bottom. This is shown in figure 22.
Fitting the Trims and Cover Pieces 1. Open the door and lift out the decorative covers (marked ‘a’) in figure 20 fig. 23 2. Remove the position guides (d), turn them round so that the lip at the top faces outwards and insert them into the slots shown in the image (e); these will be used to line up the fascia panels before securing them in position. 3.
400. Secure the mounting bracket to the fascia panel using the provided wood screws, ensuring that the screws will not penetrate through the fascia where there are any rebates, etc. and then remove the guides. Any small errors, as in the image above, can be adjusted for after the fascia has been mounted. 5. Hang the fascia panel on the support pins and check that the fascia is positioned correctly. Adjustments can be made in all directions at this stage using the adjustment points shown in figure 26.
