Product Overview

Installation

Location When selecting a position for your larder you should make sure the floor is flat and firm, and the room is well ventilated with an average room temperature of between 16C and 32C. Avoid locating your larder near a heat source, eg. cooker, boiler or radiator. Also avoid direct sunlight as it may increase the electrical consumption. Extreme cold ambient temperatures may also cause the appliance not to perform properly. This larder is not designed for use in a garage or outdoor installation.

Do not drape the larder with any covering. When installing, ensure that free space is left at the sides. You may refer to the Overall Space Required in the Specification section. The larder door can open to the right or the left, depending on what better suits the location.

If you want to have the door swing reversed, we recommend that you contact a qualified technician. You should only try to reverse the door yourself if you believe that you are qualified to do so.

All parts removed must be saved to do the reinstallation of the door. You should rest the larder on something solid so that it will not slip during the door change process. Do not lay the larder flat as this may damage the coolant system. Ensure the larder is unplugged and empty. We recommend that 2 people handle the larder during assembly.

Installing the Larder Please refer to Installation Guide.

Levelling the Larder To do this use the two levelling feet at the front of the larder.

If the larder is not level, the door and magnetic seal alignments will not be covered properly.

Cleaning Before Use Wipe the inside of the larder with a weak solution of bicarbonate soda. Then rinse with warm water using a wrung-out sponge or cloth. Wash the baskets and shelves in warm soapy water and dry completely before replacing in the larder. Clean the exterior of the larder with a damp cloth.

If you require more information refer to the CLEANING section.

Before Plugging in YOU MUST Check that you have a socket which is compatible with the plug supplied with the larder.

Before Turning On! Do not turn on until two hours after moving the larder. The coolant fluid needs time to

settle.

Before Using Your Larder Before placing any food in your larder, turn it on and wait for 24 hours, to make sure it is working properly and to allow the larder to fall to the correct temperature. Your larder should not be overfilled.

Operating Instructions

Switching On Your Larder 1. The internal temperature of your fridge freezer is

controlled by a thermostat. There are seven settings, of which position 7 is the coldest, position 1 is the warmest and position OFF turns the fridge freezer off.

2. Adjust the thermostat control dial to the desired position, bear in mind that the higher the number, the lower the temperature. Position 4 is the recommended setting for the fridge freezer when operating at normal room temperature (between 16C and 32C).

3. The fridge freezer may not operate at the correct temperature if it is in a particularly hot or a particularly cold room, or if you open the fridge freezer door often.

4. To ensure that the fridge freezer is cool enough to sufficiently chill your food wait 24 hours before filling it with food.

5. If you are concerned that your larder is not being kept cold enough and wish to check the temperature you will need a special larder thermometer. These are available from most supermarkets and hardware shops. Place the thermometer in the larder, where it can be read easily. Leave overnight, the temperature in the larder should be between 0C and 5C.

Adjusting the Temperature The internal temperature of your larder is controlled by a thermostat. The recommended position is between 1 to 4 for colder working environments (i.e. during winter) and between 5 to 6 for hotter environments. Please adjusted according to the environment.

Noises Inside the Larder! If you have not owned a larder before, you may notice that it makes some rather unusual noises. Most of these are perfectly normal, but you should be aware of them!

These noises are caused by the circulation of the refrigerant liquid in the cooling system. It has become more pronounced since the introduction of CFC free gases. This is not a fault and will not affect the performance of your larder. This is the compressor motor working, as it pumps the refrigerant around the system.

Shopping for Chilled Foods Take a quick look at the chilled food package and make sure it is in perfect condition.

Try to keep chilled food together whilst shopping and on the journey home as this will help to keep the food cold.

Dont buy chilled food unless you can chill it straight away. Specially insulated bags can be bought from most supermarkets and hardware shops. These bags can keep chilled food cold for longer while transporting.

Food that has been left in a car or at room temperature for a prolonged period of time could raise the food temperature to a dangerous level, which allows harmful bacteria to grow.

Always unpack and place chilled food in the larder before storing dry food.

Tips for Keeping Food Perfect in the Larder Cooked meats/fishes should always be stored on a shelf above raw meats/fishes to avoid bacterial

transfer. Keep raw meats/fishes in a container which is large enough to collect juices and cover it properly. Place the container on the lowest shelf at the bottom of the larder.

Leave space around your food, to allow air to circulate inside the larder. Ensure all parts of the larder are kept cool.

To prevent transfer of flavours and drying out, pack or cover the food separately. Fruit and vegetables do not need to be wrapped.

Always let pre-cooked food cool down before you put in the larder. This will help to maintain the internal temperature of the larder.

To prevent cold air escaping from the larder, try to limit the number of times you open the door. We recommend that you only open the door when you need to put food in or take food out.

Cleaning

Cleaning the Interior and the Exterior of the Larder Wipe the inside of the larder with a weak solution of bicarbonate soda and then rinse with warm water

using a wrung-out sponge or cloth. Wipe completely dry before replacing the shelves and drawers.

Use a damp cloth to clean the larder exterior, and then wipe with a standard furniture polish. Make sure that the door is closed to avoid the polish getting on the magnetic door seal or inside the larder.

The grille of the condenser at the back of the larder and the adjacent components can be vacuumed using a soft brush attachment.

Cleaning Tips Condensation may appear on the outside of the larder. This maybe due to a change in room

temperature. Wipe off any moisture residue. If the problem continues, please contact a qualified technician for assistance.

Maintenance

Changing the Internal Light 1. Before carrying out the bulb replacement always press and turn the thermostat control dial to Position

0, then disconnect the mains supply.

2. Hold and unscrew the light bulb cover.

3. Remove the plastic light bulb cover.

4. Remove the old bulb by unscrewing in an anticlockwise direction.

5. Replace with a new bulb (10W SES). Please make sure that it is secure in the bulb cover.

6. Refit the translucent light cover and reconnect your larder to the mains supply and switch on.

Care When Handling / Moving Your Larder Hold the larder around its sides or base when moving it. Under no circumstances should it be lifted by holding the edges of the top surface.

Servicing This larder should be serviced by an authorised engineer and only genuine spare parts should be used. Under no circumstances should you attempt to repair the larder yourself. Repairs carried out by inexperienced persons may cause injury or serious malfunction. Contact a qualified technician.

When the larder is not in use for a long period of time, disconnect it from the mains supply, empty all food and clean the appliance, leaving the door ajar to prevent unpleasant smells.

Disposal Old appliances still have some residual value. An environmentally friendly method of disposal will ensure that valuable raw materials can be recovered and used again. The refrigerant used in your appliance and insulation materials require special disposal procedures. Ensure that none of the pipes on the back of the appliance are damaged prior to disposal.

Up to date information concerning options of disposing of your old appliance and packaging from the new one can be obtained from your local council office.

When disposing of an old appliance break off any old locks or latches as a safeguard.
