Manual

The refrigerator transfers heat from food placed inside the

appliance to the outside air.

Thisprocessmakestherear,thesidesandthearea

adjacenttothedoors,particularlyatinitialstartup,

feelwarm.Thisisnormal.

There is a cooling coil located behind the rear wall of the

cabinet. This coil cools and removes moisture from the air.

A fan then circulates cold, dry air throughout the cabinet.

This air circulation means that foods are refrigerated far

more quickly than in refrigerators where the air remains

relatively static.

Avoidplacingfoodagainstairoutletsasthiswillaffect

air circulation.

A light frosting will occasionally occur on the cold interior of

the freezer when the door is opened frequently. This is normal

and will disappear after a few days in most climates.

Make sure you fully close the freezer door after you load

or remove food. If the door is left partly open, a heavy

frost will coat the inside of the freezer. If a frost develops,

remove it. Take care to properly close the door and the

frost will not reoccur. If the food is placed forward of the

ribs on the bottom of the freezer, it will keep the door open.

Ensure that all food is stored behind the ribs.

Your new energy efcient appliance uses a high-speed

compressor and other energy efcient components that

may produce different noises to your old appliance.

These sounds are normal and include:

• compressor running noise.

• air movement noise from the small fan motor.

• occasional gurgling, similar to water boiling.

• a popping noise, heard during automatic defrosting.

• a clicking noise, just prior to the compressor starting up.

These noises are normal and not cause for alarm.

Further details can be found on page 13.

Set the temperature by using the main temperature

controls at the rear of the refrigerator compartment.

When you rst start your refrigerator, set both refrigerator

and freezer controls to MID. The refrigerator temperature

control is affected by altitude and it is recommended

that it be set warmer to compensate. e.g. at 1000 metres

above sea level set the refrigerator temperature control

to one setting warmer than MID.

tips and information

A good indication of optimal freezer temperature

is ice cream that is frozen, but still soft enough for

easy scooping.

For the fridge compartment, we recommend using

drinking water and simply adjusting the fridge controls

until the water is at your ideal temperature.

To change settings. When you change temperature settings,

make small adjustments and wait 24 hours before assessing

whether you need to make any further changes.

The drain hole in my fridge-freezer is dirty/clogged, how do I clean it? Verified

How often should I defrost my freezer? Verified

For optimal use of the freezer it is best to defrost it once every 3-6 months. Ice on the inside of the freezer reduces the available space and increases the use of energy. The thawing process can be accelerated by placing hot water in the drawer or placing bowls of hot water in the freezer.

My fridge-freezer makes a bubbling sound, is that normal? Verified

Modern fridge-freezers make use of an environmentally friendly cooling agent. During the cooling process this substance turns into a gas, which can cause a bubbling and/or hissing sound. This is perfectly normal.

I bought a new fridge-freezer, can I turn it on immediately? Verified

No, the fridge-freezer needs to stand in an upright position for at least 4 hours before it can be turned on. This is because the coolant liquid needs to settle.

Is it normal that water or ice drops are forming on the back wall of my fridge-freezer? Verified

Yes, this a completely normal phenomenom. The moisture that enters the fridge-freezer with warm air or products will settle on the coldest part, being the back wall. Because the back wall can reach temperatures below freezing, the drops will freeze from time to time. When the fridge-freezer is idle the drops will thaw and flow to the drain of the fridge-freezer.

The stars indicate the freezing capacity. 1 star indicates a freezing capacity down to -6ºC. This makes the freezer suitable for making ice cubes or storing previously frozen goods for up to two weeks. Fresh food cannot be frozen. 2 stars indicates a freezing capacity down to -12ºC. This makes the freezer suitable for storing previously frozen goods for up to two months. Fresh food cannot be frozen. 3 stars indicates a freezing capacity down to -18ºC.

How long does it take for my refrigerator to reach the set temperature after I turn it on? Verified

This depends on the size, age and model of the refrigerator. It may take several hours to 24 hours for the refrigerator to reach the set temperature. The process can be accelerated by placing non-perishable goods in the refrigerator. The temperature in the refrigerator cannot be measured properly by feeling the air inside. The best way to tell if the refrigerator has reached the set temperature is to place a glass of water in the refrigerator with a thermometer in it.

There is condensation in my refrigerator, why is that? Verified

There can be several causes. The door gasket can be defective, allowing outside air into the refrigerator. It's also possible that the refrigerator is not level, preventing the door from closing correctly. Another cause is a large difference between the temperature inside the refrigerator and outside while the door is being opened frequently.

There is mold on the rubber seals of my fridge-freezer, what should I do? Verified

The rubber seals are not actually inside the fridge-freezer and are therefore warmer. This allows bacteria to grow and mold to form. Clean the rubbers regularly to prevent this.
