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.
When first switching the appliance on the fridge will default to 5°C and the freezer
to -18°C. The figure in the digital display for freezer temperature will flash until the
temperature drops below 0°C.
Please note:
The appliance will work continuously until it comes down to the correct
temperature.
If the appliance is switched off, you should allow five minutes before switching it
on again to prevent unnecessary damage to the compressor.
Never store inflammable or explosive items and strong corrosive acids or alkalis in
the appliance.
This fridge cools your food by making the inside back wall of the cavity cold. It is
normal for frost to build up on this surface(see below image) as it is a wet wall

it then dissipates and drains through a small drain hole at the bottom
where it evaporates harmlessly. The presence of frosting at the back is not a
malfunction of the fridge.
