Important Safety Rules

Read all instructions before using the fridge. To reduce the risk of fire, electrical shock, or injury, follow basic precautions.

• Plug into a grounded 3-prong outlet. Do not remove the grounding prong, use an adapter, or an extension cord.
• Replace all panels before operating.
• Use a dedicated circuit for the appliance. Use an outlet that cannot be turned off by a switch.
• Never clean appliance parts with flammable fluids. Do not store or use gasoline or other flammable vapors and liquids near the appliance.
• Disconnect the power line before cleaning or maintenance.
• Do not connect or disconnect the electric plug with wet hands.
• Do not attempt to repair the appliance yourself; refer servicing to a qualified technician.
• Keep out of reach of children. Before discarding an old fridge, remove the door to prevent child entrapment.
• Never allow children to operate, play with, or crawl inside the appliance.

WARNING

• Ensure proper ventilation for the appliance. The front of the unit must be completely unobstructed.
• Choose a well-ventilated area with temperatures between 60°F (16°C) and 90°F (32°C).
• Install the unit in an area protected from the elements (wind, rain, water spray or drips).
• Do not locate the appliance near ovens, grills, or other sources of high heat.
• Install the appliance with all electrical, water, and drain connections in accordance with state and local codes. A standard electrical supply (115 V AC, 60 Hz), properly grounded, is required.
• Do not kink or pinch the power supply cord.
• Ensure the appliance is leveled for proper operation.
• Do not use solvent-based cleaning agents or abrasives on the interior, as they may damage or discolor the interior.
• Do not use this appliance for other than its intended purpose.

DANGER FLAMMABLE REFRIGERANT GAS

This appliance contains a small quantity of R600a refrigerant, which is environmentally friendly but flammable. It does not damage the ozone layer or increase the greenhouse effect.

• During transportation and installation, ensure that the tubing of the refrigerant circuit is not damaged.
• When handling, moving, or using the refrigerator, avoid damaging the refrigerant tubing or increasing the risk of a leak.
• Avoid using sharp objects near the appliance.
• Leaking refrigerant can ignite and may damage the eyes.
• In case of damage, avoid open fires and spark-creating devices. Disconnect the appliance from the mains power and ventilate the room. Notify customer service.
• The installation room must have at least 1 cubic meter per 8 grams of refrigerant.

Preparation and Installation

Preparation

• Allow 24 hours before switching on the fridge. Leave the door open to clear any residual odors.
• Select a location that is:
  • Unencumbered and well-ventilated
  • Away from heat sources and direct sunlight
  • Not damp
  • On a flat floor
  • With a standard, reliable electricity supply (grounded outlet). Avoid multi-sockets or extension leads.
  • With a surge protector fitted to the electrical outlet.
  • Away from microwave ovens.
• Place the unit where the ambient temperature is proper. Extreme temperatures can affect performance.

Installation

• Read the instruction manual.
• Unpack and remove all protective materials.
• Position the fridge so the plug is accessible.
• Move the fridge to its final location, ensuring the compressor is not subject to physical contact.
• Level the unit using the 4 adjustable feet. Tighten the back feet and adjust the front feet to level.

Built-in Instructions

• "Built-in" fridges are front venting and not designed to be fully integrated behind a joinery door.
• Follow the installation diagram for minimum installation dimensions to ensure proper venting.
• Built-in units draw air from the right ventilation frame and expel through the left, under the front door.
• The power switch is on the control panel. A standard 120-volt power point is required.
• The power cord is 1m long and located on the right side at the back.
• Ensure air vents on the door are provided for any built-in unit with a wood door.

Electrical Connection

• Improper use of the grounded plug can result in electrical shock. If the power cord is damaged, have it replaced by an authorized service center.
• The appliance is equipped with a three-prong plug for safety. Do not remove the third ground prong.
• Use a standard 115/120 Volt AC ~/60Hz electrical ground outlet with three-prong. Have the wall outlet and circuit checked by a qualified electrician.
• Plug the appliance into its own individual electrical outlet with a voltage rating matching the appliance's rating label.
• Never unplug by pulling the power cord; grip the plug firmly and pull straight out.
• Replace frayed or damaged power cords immediately.

Extension Cord

• It is strongly recommended not to use an extension cord.
• If an extension cord must be used, it must be a UL/CUL-Listed, 3-wire grounding type with a grounding plug and outlet, rated for 115 volts and at least 10 amperes.

Operating the Unit

Initial Use

• Plug in and switch on the fridge using the power button.
• Allow a few hours for the temperature to stabilize. Initial temperature variations are normal.
• IMPORTANT: If the unit is unplugged, power is lost, or turned off, wait 3 to 5 minutes before restarting.

Control Panel Lock

• The control panel has an automatic lock function that activates 5 seconds after the last button press.
• To unlock, press and hold the UNLOCK and °F/°C buttons for 3 seconds. The control panel will beep and blink once.
• Unlock the panel to change temperature, display settings (°F/°C), turn lights on/off, or power off the fridge.

Control panel for Fridge

To control the temperature: Unlock the panel, then use the UP ⬆️ or DOWN ⬇️ buttons to adjust the temperature. The temperature will scroll by one-degree increments. After 5 seconds, the display will revert to the current temperature.

To turn ON / OFF the lights: Press the LIGHT button to turn the top light on or off. The lights are set to turn on automatically when the door is opened and off when closed. To keep the side light on, unlock the panel, turn the side lights OFF using the button, then press the light button again. To revert to factory settings, unlock the panel and turn the side lights OFF.

To change the temperature display: Press the °F/°C button to switch between Fahrenheit and Celsius.

Service and Preservation Temperature

• Install the fridge in an area with ambient temperatures between 1°C-32°C (34°F-89°F).
• Extreme temperatures may affect performance and cause fluctuations.

Temperature Settings

• The LED displays the actual internal air temperature.
• Factory pre-set temperature settings are used. In case of power interruption, settings are automatically saved and revert to pre-set values. The electrical board has a memory function.
• Allow approximately 3 hours for temperature adjustments to take effect due to the mass of the drinks inside.

Care Instructions

Operation Anomalies

• Ensure the unit is plugged in and the door is closed properly.
• Check the fuse if necessary.
• If the unit malfunctions, unplug it and contact after-sales service.
• Any intervention on the cold circuit or electrical circuit must be performed by qualified technicians.
• IMPORTANT: Intervention by unauthorized technicians will void the warranty.

Power Failures

• In the event of a power interruption, temperature settings are automatically saved and will revert to a pre-set temperature.
