Before switching on
Make sure that it has been installed by a suitably qualified person, as per the information contained in FOCALPOINT’s installation
instructions.
After delivery, wait for eight hours before connecting the appliance to the mains supply. This will allow any refrigerant gasses that may
have been disturbed during the transportation process to settle.
The outside of the appliance and the removable accessories contained within it should be cleaned with a solution of liquid detergent
and water.
The interior of the appliance should be cleaned with a solution of sodium bicarbonate dissolved in lukewarm water. The interior and
accessories should be thoroughly dried after the cleaning process has been completed.
There may be an odour when you first switch on the appliance. It will lessen as the appliance starts to cool.
During first use
You should set the displays to their maximum settings for 24 hours after switching on the appliance for the first time.
When you first turn on the appliance the compressor will run continuously for approximately 24 hours or until the fridge/freezer
reaches a cool enough temperature.
During this period of time you should try not to open the door frequently or place a large amount of food within the appliance.
You should then adjust the displays down to their desired temperature.
If the unit is switched off or unplugged, you must allow at least 5 minutes before restarting the appliance on the thermostat or
connecting it to the mains supply.
You switch on the appliance by connecting it to the mains supply and setting the thermostat. The thermostat displays are located on
the control panel, which can be found at the top of the Fridge/freezer.
The thermostat automatically regulates the temperature inside the Fridge/freezer, depending on which setting the thermostat control
has been set to.
The refrigerator can maintain a temperature of between (-1) and (10) degrees centigrade.
The freezer section can cool down to (-30) degrees centigrade.
IMPORTANT: The ambient temperature of the room, the temperature of the food and the amount of food that has been placed in
the appliance and how often the door is opened will affect the temperature being maintained by the appliance.
If the displays are set to a low setting such as (-1) degrees for the fridge and (-25) for the freezer, then the fridge/freezer sections will
work harder to maintain a lower temperature. There is no need to run the appliance on the lower settings.
IMPORTANT: if you run the appliance with the temperature controls on lower settings for prolonged periods, the defrost drain
hole will freeze. It may also cause the appliance to overwork and the fridge and freezer sections to freeze over.
