in a well ventilated area.  
2- Ensure the time between buying  
chilled/frozen food and placing them  
in your appliance is kept at minimum,  
particularly in summer. We recommend  
you use a cool bag or a special carrier  
bag to carry perishable food.  
3- Do not leave the door (s) of your  
appliance open longer than necessary  
and ensure they are closed properly  
after each opening.  
4- Defrost frozen food in the fridge  
compartment, so that frozen food acts  
as an ice pack to assist cooling in the  
fridge.

4 Before operating  
Final Check  
Before you start using the fridge/  
freezer check that:  
1. The feet have been adjusted for  
perfect levelling.  
2. The interior is dry and air can  
circulate freely at the rear of the cabinet.  
3. Clean the interior as recommended  
under “CLEANING AND CARE.”  
4. Insert the plug into the wall socket  
and switch on the electricity supply.  
• When the door is open the fridge  
interior light will come on.  
5. You will hear a noise as the  
compressor starts up. The liquid and  
gases sealed within the refrigeration  
system may also give rise to noise,  
whether the compressor is running or  
not which is quite normal.  
6. Set the setting half way between  
min and max.  
7. Front edges of the cabinet may  
feel warm. This is normal. These areas  
are designed to be warm to avoid  
condensation.  
8. “Do not load the appliance  
immediately it is switched on. Wait until  
the correct storage temperature has  
been reached. We recommend that you  
check the temperature with an accurate  
thermometer (see; Temperature Control  
and Adjustment)”

5 Using your refrigerator  
TEMPERATURE CONTROL AND  
ADJUSTMENT  
Rememberyoumusttakeyourreading  
very quickly since the thermometer  
temperature will rise very rapidly after  
you remove it from the freezer.  
Please remember each time the door  
is opened cold air escapes and the  
internal temperature rises. Therefore  
never leave the door open and ensure  
it is closed immediately after food is put  
in or removed.  
STORING FRESH FOOD  
Operating temperatures are controlled  
by the thermostat (Fig. 1) and may be  
set at any position between 1 and 5,  
5 being the coldest position. Towards  
5 you will obtain a colder fridge  
temperature and vice versa.  
To switch off the appliance completely:  
Turn the thermostat to “0” (Zero)  
position.  
Your freezer is suitable for the long-  
term storage of commercially frozen  
foods and also can be used to freeze  
and store fresh food.  
If there is a power failure do not open  
the door. Frozen food should not be  
affected if the failure lasts for less than  
23 hrs. If the failure is longer, then the  
food should be checked and either  
eaten immediately or cooked and then  
refrozen.  
“Closed” setting will keep humidity  
inside the salad crisper.  
“Open” setting will increase air  
circulation thereby reduce humidity in  
the salad crisper.  
If you wish to store food in the salad  
crisper for longer , you should keep  
the humidity adjustment in the closed  
position.  
FREEZING FRESH FOOD  
Please  
observe  
the  
following  
instructions to obtain the best results.  
Do not freeze too large a quantity at  
any one time. The quality of the food  
is best preserved when it is frozen  
right through to the core as quickly as  
The average temperature inside the  
fridge depends on the following factors: possible.  
• Ambient temperature in the room  
(seasonal changes)  
• Frequency of door opening  
Do not exceed the freezing capacity  
of your appliance in 24 h which is 3.5  
kg (11lb)  
• Placing hot food inside the product  
• Position of the product inside the  
room (being exposed to sun light)  
We recommend that you check  
the temperature with an accurate  
thermometer to ensure that the storage  
compartments are kept to the desired  
temperature.  
Placing warm food into the freezer  
compartment causes the refrigeration  
compressor to operate continuously  
until the food is frozen solid. This can  
temporarily lead to excessive cooling of  
the refrigeration compartment.  
EN  
14  
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.  
When freezing fresh food turn the  
thermostat towards 5. Small quantities  
of food up to 1/2 kg. (1 lb) can be  
frozen without having to rotate the  
temperature control knob.  
You may place fresh food to be frozen  
in any part of the freezer.  
Take special care not to mix already  
frozen food and fresh food.  
B) FREEZER  
COMPARTMENT  
Defrosting is very easy and without  
mess thanks to a special defrost  
collection what is a basin.  
Defrost twice a year or when a frost  
layer of around 7 mm (1/4") has formed.  
To start defrosting procedure switch  
off the appliance at the socket outlet  
and pull out the mains plug.  
DEFROSTING  
All food should be wrapped in several  
layers of newspaper and stored in a  
cool place (e.g. fridge or larder).  
Containers full of warm water may be  
placed carefully in the freezer to speed  
up the defrosting.  
Do not use pointed or sharp edged  
objects such as knives, forks to remove  
the frost.  
A) FRIDGE COMPARTMENT  
The fridge compartment defrosts  
automatically. The defrosting water  
runs to the drain tube via a collection  
container at the back of the appliance  
(1).(see diagram)  
During defrosting water droplets  
may form at the back of the fridge  
Never use hairdryers, electrical heaters  
and other similar electrical appliances  
for defrosting.  
compartment  
where  
concealed  
evaporator is located.  
Some droplets may remain on the  
liner and refreeze when defrosting is  
completed. Do not use pointed or sharp  
edged objects such as knives, forks to  
remove the droplets which have frozen.  
If at any time the defrost water does  
not drain from the collection channel,  
check to ensure that no food particles  
have blocked the drain tube. The drain  
tube can be cleared by pushing the  
special plastic plunger provided down  
the drain tube (2). If the frost layer  
reaches about 1/4"(7 mm), reduce  
the setting (i.e. from 4 to 3) to restart  
automatic defrosting.  
When defrosting has finished, sponge  
out any defrost water which collects at  
the bottom of the freezer and dry the  
interior thoroughly. Insert the plug in  
to the wall socket and switch on the  
electricity supply.

PROBLEM SOLVING  
If the appliance does not operate  
when switched on, check whether:  
• The plug is inserted properly in the  
socket and that the power supply is  
on. (To check the power supply to the  
socket, plug in another appliance)  
• The fuse has blown/circuit breaker  
has tripped/main distribution switch  
has been turned off.  
Don’t- Freeze fizzy drinks.  
Don’t- Try to keep frozen food which  
has thawed, it should be eaten  
within 24 hours or cooked and  
refrozen.  
Don’t- Remove items from the freezer  
with wet hands.  
Don’t- Close the freezer door before  
placing the compartment cover in  
its place.  
Don’t- Leave frozen food at room  
temperature to thaw; the best way  
to defrost food is to put it in the  
fridge to thaw slowly. Make sure  
you avoid defrosting food or food  
juices drip onto other food.  
• The temperature control has been  
set correctly and not to “0” (OFF)
