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.
3. Clean the interior as recommended
under “CLEANING AND CARE.”
4. Insert the plug into the wall socket
and switch on the electricity supply.
Avoid accidental disconnection by
taping over the switch.
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. If you are going to store already
frozen food ensure the freezer has
reached the correct temperature. Then
you can put in your already frozen
food.
7. “ Slight undulation of the top of
the cabinet is quite normal due to the
manufacturing process used, so do
not worry, it is not a defect.
8. Front edges of the cabinet may feel
warm. This is normal. These areas
are designed to be warm to avoid
condensation.
9. We recommend that you set
the thermostat at 3 and monitor
the temperature to ensure the
appliance maintains desired
storage temperatures (see section
Temperature Control and Adjustment).
10. 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).
Important Notes :
1. If there is a power failure do not
open the door. Frozen food should not
be affected if the failure lasts for less
than 16.5 hours. If the failure is longer,
then the food should be checked and
either eaten immediately or cooked
and then re-frozen.
2. If you find the freezer door difficult
to open just after you have closed
it, don’t worry. This is due to the
pressure difference which will equalise
and allow the door to open normally
after a few minutes.
3. Always wrap food using a suitable
packaging material before storing
in your appliance to avoid contact
with the appliance surface and food
remains for hygiene reasons.
