TRANSPORTING
Remove all packaging material and adhesive tape before using your new refrigerator.
This includes the foam base and all adhesive tape holding the refrigerator accessories
inside and outside.
Clean both the inside and outside of the refrigerator with a soft cloth and lukewarm soapy
water.
Keep the refrigerator upright and avoid squeezing or vibration
during transport. Avoid a slanting angle over 45 degrees during
handling. Avoid the door or top cap from being under excessive
stress when moving, otherwise it may become deformed.
5
Positioning your refrigerator
Place your refrigerator in a well ventilated area away from a heat source and direct
sunlight. Do not install the refrigerator in a damp or wet location as this may cause
damage to the insulation and result in leakage. Condensation may also build up on the
outer cabinet causing rust.
Use the front two adjustable feet to level the refrigerator. Rotate the feet in a clockwise
direction to raise the refrigerator and anti-clockwise to lower. Ensure the refrigerator
slightly tilts backwards so that the drawer and door self-close to provide a consistent
closed seal.
There should be a clearance of at least 200mm from the
top of your refrigerator, a minimum of 30mm from both
sides of the refrigerator, and 50mm at the back of the unit
to allow for adequate ventilation.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
The temperature of the refrigerator can be controlled manually by
adjusting the temperature dial (page 4 item 2). Turn the dial to
position “6” for coldest temperature or position “1” if a warmer
interior temperature is required.
Position “4” is for normal use.
Set the temperature to position “6” only when ice or frozen food is
stored in the freezing compartment.
Position the dial in the “OFF” position to turn the unit off.

Cleaning the appliance
CLEANING & MAINTENANCE
Interior
Clean the refrigerator interior regularly. Turn power off. Wipe the interior with a soft cloth
and lukewarm soapy water. Wipe away any food spills thoroughly. Dry all surfaces and
removable parts. Avoid getting water on the refrigerator controls. If you have taken out
any removable parts, replace them and switch on the power before re-stocking the
refrigerator.
Exterior
Clean the refrigerator with only lukewarm soapy water and a soft cloth. Rinse with clean
water and then wipe the surface with a soft clean cloth to remove any soap residue.
WARNING
Before cleaning: Turn appliance off at the power point, then remove the power
cord from the outlet. This will make sure there is no chance of electric shock.
Note: When operating the refrigerator for the first time, run it without loading any food
until the compressor auto stops once the desired temperature has been reached. This
normally takes 2 or 3 hours.
CLEANING & MAINTENANCE
8
Please check the points below after maintenance:
(1) Is there any damage to the power lead?
(2) Can the power plug be inserted into the power socket correctly?
(3) Is the power plug and/or lead heating up?
DEFROSTING
Heavy frost will effect the freezing process or internal temperature of the appliance and
increase the power consumption. Thus, defrosting is required if the frost is >4mm thick.
Defrosting is a manual process. Please follow these steps:
Switch off and disconnect the appliance.
Remove all food from the fridge.
Open the door and wait for the ice to defrost. Place a container under the freezer to
catch the melted ice.
When defrosting, a plastic scraper or plastic utensil may be used. Never use metal
instruments or electrical appliances to defrost the fridge.
To speed up the defrosting process, you can carefully place a bowl of hot water in the
freezing compartment and close the door.
When defrosting is complete, wipe down the inside of the fridge.
Replace the drawer and food before restoring power.

Door seal
Take care to keep the door seal clean. Sticky food and drink can cause the seal to stick
to the cabinet and tear when you open the door. Wash the seal with a mild detergent
and warm water. Rinse thoroughly and dry.
Never use hot water, solvents, commercial kitchen cleaners, aerosol cleaners,
metal polishers, caustic or abrasive cleaners or scourers to clean the appliance
as they will damage it. Many commercially available cleaning products and
detergents contain solvents that will damage your refrigerator. When cleaning,
using only a soft cloth and lukewarm soapy water.
