caution

The rollers are designed or orward or backward movement

only. They are not castors. Moving the rerigerator sideways

may damage your oor and the rollers.

1. Roll the rerigerator into place.

2. The top o the rerigerator should be tilted back by 10mm

(see diagram on let). This will allow the doors to sel-

close providing a consistent door seal.

3. I the rerigerator isnt tilted back, you can adjust the two

ront rollers by turning the large, plastic roller nut. (see

diagram below). One turn o the nut increases the height

o the rerigerator by 10mm. I you have difculty turning

the roller nut, have someone tilt the rerigerator back, so

you have better access. Alternatively, you can access

the rollers rom the side, using a at screwdriver. (See

diagram below).

4. Check the alignment o the rerigerator to the

surrounding cupboards to see i it is level. You can

adjust the level with the rollers as detailed in step 3.

5. I you fnd your rerigerator rocks rom corner to corner,

it means your oor is uneven. Find a piece o plastic or

hardboard etc. and pack it frmly under the roller.

6. On certain oor suraces the rerigerator may roll orward

during operation. A Roller Stop, which is provided, can

be placed under the ront rollers.

7. You may now need to fne-tune the installation by

repeating Steps 3, 4 and 5.


For built-in models, reer to the separate booklet.

TojointwoE:Linemodularfridestoether,referto

the booklet with the connection kit.

Adequate ventilation around your rerigerator.

The diagram below shows the recommended airspace to

allow or ventilation o your rerigerator.

I you dont have a cupboard with a rear gap, the

recommended clearance area on top increases rom 50mm

to 90mm (x) and rom 32mm to 72mm (y). When positioned

in a corner area, spacing o at least 350mm on the hinge

side will allow the doors to open enough to enable the

removal o bins and shelves.

Note: For those models with telescopic extension slide-

out bins, the clearance required increases rom 350mm to

550mm or top mount and bottom mount models, and to

450mm or the all rerigerator model to allow ull access to

the bins contents as well as bin removal.

NOTE: Doors are designed to sit proud

o cabinetry (not fush). The clearances shown

above are the recommended minimum clearances.

The clearance at the rear must not exceed 75mm.

caution

Automatic aerosol systems (such as insect conrtol) should not

be located adjacent to the product as the spray may cause

long term damage to the external plastics o the appliance.

Installing your rerigerator

Your new rerigerator should arrive with the ront adjustable

rollers wound down, to tilt the top backwards by about

10mm rom upright. This will allow your rerigerator door to

sel-close, providing a consistent closed seal.

The stability oot should also be wound ully up so it will not

interere with the operation o the rollers (see diagram in

Step 3).

8. When you have the appliance in its fnal position, it

needs to be stabilised. Wind the stability oot down to

the oor until it just makes contact with the oor. Lit

the ront o the appliance to take the weight o the

stability oot, then turn it turn urther to ensure frm

contact with the oor. Whenever you need to move theappliance, be sure to wind the oot back up so that the

appliance can roll reely and be sure to reset it when

reinstalling.

9. Clean your rerigerator thoroughly ollowing the

instructions on page 11 and wipe o any dust that has

accumulated during shipping.

10. Plug your rerigerator straight into its own power point

and never use a double adapter. I you need to roll thererigerator to get to the plug, remember to raise the

stability oot frst.

11. Beore you put any ood in your rerigerator, its

recommended you leave it on or 2 or 3 hours to check

it is running properly.

Congratulations! You have successully installed your new

rerigerator.


For built in model, the plug must be accessible ater

installation.

Rerigerators work by transerring heat rom the ood inside

to the outside air. This operation makes the back and sides

o the rerigerator (particularly at start-up) eel warm which

is normal.

A cooling coil is located behind the rear wall o the reezer

section (in top mount, bottom mount and reezer models)and behind the crisper in the all-rerigerator models. This

coil cools and removes moisture rom the air inside.

Avoid placing ood against the air vents in the rerigerator,

as it aects the efcient circulation. I the door is opened

requently, a light rosting will occasionally occur on the

reezers interior. This is normal and will clear ater a ew

days. I the reezer door is accidentally kept open, a heavy

rost will coat the inside walls and should be removed.

Your new rerigerator uses a high-speed compressor,

along with other energy-efcient components, which may

make unusual sounds. These sounds simply indicate your

rerigerator is working how it should. They include: Compressorrunningnoises;

Airmovementnoisefromthesmallfanmotor;

Agurglingsound,similartowaterboiling;

Initial start-up


9/18

The electronic display panel consists o an LCD display with

white backlighting and 6 touch buttons. When the power

is frst turned on, the display with backlighting will come on.

I no buttons have been pressed and the ridge door is

closed the backlighting will turn o ater 30 seconds.

NOTE: I no buttons have been pressed or approximately

60 seconds, there may be a delay o up to 2 seconds beore

the display reacts. This is normal and is to prevent accidentalchanges to settings.

Controlling the temperature

We recommend that when you start your rerigerator or the frst

time, the temperature or the rerigerator is set to 3C and the

reezer to -18C. I you want to change the temperature, ollow

the instructions below. Make only small adjustments and wait

24 hours to see i its correct. Checking the sotness o ice cream

is a good indication i your reezer is the right temperature, while

eeling the coldness o water kept in the rerigerator is a good

way o checking the temperature o the ood compartment.

NOTE: When you set a temperature, you set an

average temperature or the whole rerigerator cabinet.

Temperatures inside each compartment may vary,

depending on how much ood you store and where you

place it. High or low room temperature may also aect the

actual temperature inside the rerigerator.

Changing the reezer temperature

Press the reezer button to make the reezer

colder in 1C steps. Once the maximum o

-23C is reached, the display will return to

-14C with the next press o the button. The bar graph gets

smaller with colder reezer settings.

Changing the rerigerator temperature

Press the ridge button to make the

rerigerator colder in 1C steps. Once 0C is

reached, the display will return to 7C with

the next button press. The bar graph gets smaller with

colder rerigerator settings.

Fast reeze unction

Use the ast reeze unction when you add a

large amount o ood to the reezer

compartment. This reezes the ood quickly

but does not aect the temperature in the rerigerator

compartment. To use this unction, press the ast reeze

button once. An animated icon will light up. The ast reeze

unction will now operate or 90 minutes. I you want to turn

the ast reeze unction o beore 90 minutes have passed,

simply press the ast reeze button again. The icon will

disappear and the reezer will return to normal operation.

Freezer temperature alarm

I the alarm sounds or no apparent reason,

check whether anything is keeping the door

open. I the reezer becomes too warm due to

the reezer door being let open or warm ood being placed

too close to the temperature sensor, a buzzer will sound.The icon adjacent to the alarm reset button, the reezer set

temperature and bar graph will all ash, until the alarm reset

button is pressed. Once pressed, the alarm disable icon

adjacent to the alarm button will illuminate or 50 minutes,

or until the temperature drops to an acceptable level.

Make sure nothing is holding the reezer door open and

move any warm ood away rom the temperature sensor. I

the reezer is still too warm ater 50 minutes, the alarm will

sound again, indicating that something may be wrong with

the rerigerator.

NOTE:The reezer temperature alarm can be reset or 12 hours

by pressing the alarm reset button continuously or 10

seconds.

Door alarm

I the ridge door is let open or more than two minutes, the

alarm will buzz and an arrow pointing to an open door will

ash, along with the temperature setting and bar graph.

I you want to leave the door open while you load the

rerigerator, you can turn the alarm o or 8 minutes by

pressing the alarm reset button.

Child LockPress and hold the reezer and

ridge buttons together to

activate the child lock. This will

disable the display to prevent

accidental changes to settings.

To turn the child lock o, press

and hold the reezer and ridge

buttons together.

bottle. Place the bottle in the reezer and thetimer can be set or a minimum o 5 minutes

to a maximum o 30 minutes. To set, simply press the

drinks chill button repeatedly or the number o minutes (in

5-minute intervals). Once set, an animated icon appears

beside the drinks chill button, with a timer that counts down

one minute at a time.

You can change the time or turn the timer o even ater the

countdown has started. A buzzer will tell you when the time

is fnished and the icon will ash until the alarm reset button

is pressed.

Eneryefciency

Your rerigerator has been designed to be energy-efcient

and can operate in three modes: Normal, Eco and Holiday.

Normalmode

Normal mode is used when the

rerigerator door is oten opened. Its thedeault mode o your rerigerator.

Ecomode

Eco mode can be used i you dont open

your rerigerator door a lot. It is activated

in one o two ways:

by manually pressing the eco/holiday button once

when in normal mode, or,

by automatically activates ater 30 hours i the

rerigerator door has not been opened.

The lea icon will appear on the electronic display when

eco mode is on. I eco mode is activated automatically,

the rerigerator will revert to normal mode once thererigerator door is opened. I eco mode is entered

manually, opening the door will not revert it back to

normal mode. To exit eco mode, simply press the eco/

holiday button until the word normal is displayed. Use

Eco mode when youre not using the rerigerator all the

time (eg. as a long-term storage rerigerator). I the door is

going to be opened a lot, switch back to normal mode.

Remember, i eco mode is turned on manually, it wont

switch o automatically.

Holidaymode

Use this button when you go on holiday

or leave the house or long periods. The

rerigerator minimises derosting to saveenergy but maintains your temperature settings. To put

the rerigerator into holiday mode, press the eco/holiday

mode button until the aeroplane icon appears. The

holiday mode will operate until the button is pressed

again or the rerigerator door is opened.

NOTE: Opening the reezer door wont eect the operation

o either Eco or Holiday modes.

Eco and Holiday Modes minimise derosting to save energy,

while maintaining your temperature settings.

to simply slide the bottle twist holder along the bottle

retainer bar until it is pushed up against a bottle.

Note:

The bottle should be constrained on the other side by either

the end o the bin or other adjacent bottles.

Spillsae glass shelves
