Section 1. I n s ta lla tion

IMPORTANT! This appliance must be left to stand in an upright position

for at least 4 hours before being switched on for the first time.

Remove all packaging and securing tape from the appliance.

Wash the interior of the appliance with luke warm water containing a

small amount of bicarbonate soda (5ml to 0.5 litres of water).

Position the appliance in a dry atmosphere and out of direct sunlight.

Do not position next to a cooker or other sources of heat, i.e. radiator.

If positioned next to another fridge or freezer, leave a minimum gap of

2cm between the appliances in order to avoid condensation.

A clearance of 50mm should be left above the appliance. If this cannot

be achieved you should ensure a clearance of 25mm is maintained on

each side of the appliance.

If supplied, fit the plastic wall spacers to the condenser on the rear of the

appliance, this will ensure an air gap between the appliance and the wall.

Do not place or store heavy items on the top of this appliance

Ensure that the appliance is positioned on a firm flat floor.

This appliance must be level. Adjust the level by screwing the adjustable

feet up or down (use your fingers or a suitable spanner).

Ensure that the appliance is upright and both feet are in firm contact with

the floor so that the cabinet is stable.

Connect the plug to an adjacent 13amp socket outlet and ensure that the

appliance is not standing on the supply cable.

Section 2. Safety Advice

Please read this booklet thoroughly before installing and switching on the

appliance. The manufacturer accepts no responsibility for incorrect

installation and usage.

If this appliance is to replace an old refrigerator with a lock, as a safety

measure break or remove the lock before disposal.

Your old appliances contain insulation gases and refrigerant that must be

disposed of correctly. Please ensure that the refrigerant circuit is not

damaged before the appliance is taken away for correct disposal in line

with current legislation. If there is any doubt contact your Local Authority

for instructions.

This appliance may contain the refrigerant isobutene (R600a). This is a

natural gas with a high level of environmental compatibility; however,

caution is required as isobutene is a flammable gas. It is essential to ensure

that refrigerant tubes are not damaged during transportation and the

installation of the appliance. In the event that the refrigerant circuit is

damaged, avoid naked flames or sources of ignition and ventilate the room

in which the appliance is situated.

Do not damage the refrigerant circuit.

Do not allow children to play with the appliance. Children must never

play in or around the appliance.

If using an adaptor, this must be used in accordance with the

manufacturers instructions and ensure that the electrical circuit is not

overloaded as this could cause overheating.

Do not twist or bend the cables, and keep them away from hot surfaces.

Do not plug ın or unplug this appliance with wet hands.

Following installation make sure that the power cable is not trapped

underneath the appliance.

Section 3. Operating the Appliance

3.1. Switching on the Appliance

Allow the appliance to stand for 4 hours after installation.

Plug in the appliance and switch on at the mains supply.

Set the thermostat control to the required setting as detailed in the

Temperature Control section (3.2.).

Leave the appliance for approximately 4 hours for the correct

temperature to be reached.

3.2. Temperature Control

The temperature control dial is located just below the display panel (see

Description of the Appliance on page 3).

Setting “0”: Unit Off

Setting “1”: Unit On – Warmest Temperature

Setting “3”: Normal Operation (adequate for most situations)

Setting “5”: Coldest Temperature – For freezing fresh foods

There is also a Super Freeze switch (located just below the display panel)

that can also be used to freeze fresh foods added to the freezer.

N.B. Setting 5 on the thermostat or the Super Freeze switch should only

be used for short periods when fresh food has been added to the

appliance for freezing. Once the food is frozen turn the Super Freeze

switch off or turn the thermostat control knob back to setting 3.

Important!

During high ambient temperatures e.g. on hot summer days, it may be

necessary to set the thermostat to the coldest setting (position 5). This may

cause the compressor to run continuously in order to maintain a low

temperature in the cabinet.

This model has a Display Panel (see Description of Appliance) with three neon

warning lights:

Green Light – Confirms that the appliance is connected to mains power

and is switched on.

Orange Light – Confirms that the Super Freeze function is switched on.

Red Light – This is an alarm to inform you that the interior temperature is

too high. If this light comes on, turn on the Super Freeze function and

leave it on until the red light goes out.

3.3. Storing & Freezing Food in the Freezer

This appliance has a four star freezer that is suitable for the long-term storage

of frozen food items. It can also be used for freezing and storing fresh food

items.

You should always follow the storage guidelines printed on each food producers

packaging, however the following information is provided as a general guide for

the maximum storage life of frozen items:

Fresh Meat and Poultry – up to 12 months

Cooked Meats – up to 2 months

Fresh Fish – up to 6 months

Fruit and Vegetables – up to 12 months

Bread and Cakes – up to 6 months

3.4. Normal Operating Sounds

You may hear faint gurgling or bubbling sounds when the refrigerant is pumped

to the cooling system and through the coils or tubing at the rear of the

appliance. When the compressor is in operation you may hear a slight whirring

sound or pulsating noise. The thermostat controls the operation of the

compressor, and you may hear a slight click as it cycles in and out.

3.5. Energy Saving Advice

Do not install the appliance close to sources of heat, such as a cooker,

dishwasher or radiator. Locate the appliance in a cool well-ventilated room and

make sure that the air vents are clear.

Try to avoid keeping the door open for long time, warm air will enter the cabinet,

and may cause a build up of ice as well as affecting the energy consumption.

Ensure there are no obstructions preventing the door from closing properly

3.6. In the Event of a Power Failure

If there is a power failure, keep the door closed. When the power has been

restored the appliance will start to operate but it may take some time to achieve

the pre-set operating temperature. Check the condition of your stored food

items and liquids.

Section 4. Maintenance

Before any maintenance or cleaning work is carried out, DISCONNECT the

appliance from the ELECTRICITY supply.

4.1. Internal Cleaning

Clean the interior and accessories with warm water and bicarbonate of soda

(5ml to 0.5 litre of water). Rinse and dry thoroughly. Do not use detergents,

abrasive powders, highly perfumed cleaning products, wax polishes or cleaning

products containing bleach or alcohol.

4.2. External Cleaning

Wash the outer cabinet with warm soapy water. Do NOT use abrasive

products. There may be sharp edges on the underside of the product, so care

should be taken when cleaning. Once or twice a year dust the rear of the

appliance and the compressor at the back of the appliance, with a brush or

vacuum cleaner, as an accumulation of dust will affect the performance of the

appliance and cause increased energy consumption.

4.3. Defrosting

It is advisable to carry out de-frosting of the freezer compartment when your

frozen food stocks are minimal. Any frozen food that you have inside the

appliance should be wrapped in thick newspaper or stored in a cool bag whilst

carrying out the defrost operation.

If ice build up in the freezer exceeds 3-5mm, empty the contents and switch off

the appliance, leave the door open and allow the ice to melt. Do not use sharp

objects to scrape the ice away. Clean and dry the interior, close the door and

turn on the power to the appliance. When the power has been restored the

appliance will start to operate but it may take some time to achieve the pre-set

operating temperature.

4.4. When the appliance is not in use

When the appliance is not in use for long periods, remove the contents,

disconnect from the electricity supply and clean the appliance, leaving the door

ajar until you wish to use the appliance again.

4.5. Changing the Interior Light Bulb

Switch off the power supply to the appliance

To remove the plastic light cover, grip the cover just below the

temperature control knob and then gently pull in a downwards direction.

Unscrew the bulb from the rear of the light unit.

Replace the bulb with a suitable replacement (Max 15W).

Refit the cover and switch the appliance back on.

4.6. What to do if something goes wrong

Before contacting our service help line, check the following points:

There is no power to the appliance:

Check there is not a power cut

Check there is power to the electric socket/appliance

Check the fuse in the plug (Must be 13 amp)

Check that the thermostat is set to 1 or above (see section 3.2.)

The compressor runs continuously:

Are the doors closed correctly?

Have large quantities of food recently been added to the appliance? – if

yes, allow the interior temperature to recover

Have the appliance doors been opened frequently? – if yes, allow the

interior temperature to recover

There is excessive frost/ice build up:

Ensure that the doors have been closed correctly

Ensure that the door seals are clean and sealing correctly

The appliance is making a noise:

Refer to Normal Operating Sounds, section 3.4.

Ensure that the appliance has been installed correctly (see section 1).

If after the above checks there is still a fault contact the Sovereign Service Help
