Place the unit at least 5cm from any walls, on a level surface which is
capable of supporting the unit when fully loaded.
If the unit has been transported, tipped up, or disturbed in any other
significant way, it should be allowed to settle for at least two hours before
being connected to the mains.
Connect the unit to a standard 13 amp earthed electrical power outlet using
the power cord provided.
This unit is designed for permanent installation only; it is not a portable unit.
The unit should not be placed in an enclosed space (e.g. a cupboard) unless
our specific build-in instructions have been followed (available on request).
The service life of the unit may be significantly reduced if these installation
instructions are not adhered to.
Operation
One hour after applying power, the rear of the unit should become warm to
the touch, this indicates normal operation. The unit should reach the correct
operating temperature within approximately 3 hours.
Once correct operating temperature has been reached, you may begin to
load the fridge. Any unchilled items (cans, bottles etc.) should be introduced
gradually and not all at once so as to ensure that the refrigeration
temperature is not compromised for any significant length of time.
Auto Defrost
The unit features an Intelligent Automatic Defrost function which operates
once every 24 hours. The Defrost process is automatically optimized to suit
the loading of the fridge. You may notice a small temperature rise during the
Auto Defrost process; this is quite normal, and will not affect the contents of
the unit.
Cleaning and Maintenance
Condensation may collect inside the fridge under certain weather conditions
and this is quite normal. You should remove this with a dry cloth.
Before cleaning the unit, unplug it and remove all the contents and shelves.
Wash the inside with a warm water and baking soda solution. The solution
should be about 2 tablespoons of baking soda to a litre of water. The
outside of the unit should be cleaned with mild detergent and warm water.
If the fridge is not going to be used for a long period of time it should be
disconnected from the mains supply, cleaned, dried and the door should be
left open to prevent the build up of smells inside.
