9. Take out the screws on the top left-hand side of the unit
and replace them on the top right. Turn the upper hinge
round through 180°. Unscrew the hinge pin and reposition
it in the other opening in the hinge. Unscrew the hinge pin
and reposition it in the other opening in the hinge. Fit the
hinge pin into the corresponding opening in the door and

take off the handle.
Remove the blind covers on the other side of the door and
reposition the handle in the new location.
Replace the blind covers on the other side.
11. Put the unit back in its intended position and wait for about
two hours before connecting it to the mains.
Temperature control
The unit is activated by connecting it to the mains.
The temperature in the refrigerator cabinet can be adjusted by using the temperature control. We recommend setting the control
initially to position Normal . After a certain time, the actual temperature should then be checked with a thermometer, and adjustments
made if necessary. Turning the temperature control clockwise will decrease the temperature, while turning it anti-clockwise will
increase it.
Following a power interruption, or if the unit has been switched off on purpose, it may take 3 to 5 minutes before it switches on again.
Freezer door
To ensure that frozen food will not de-frost prematurely, the
freezer door should be kept closed at all times. This will also
prevent an undue build-up of ice and frost. Ensure, therefore,
that the door is only opened brie fl y to place food inside or to
remove it.
Freezing and storing food
∙ The temperature inside the cabinet freezer depends mainly
on the ambient temperature, the temperature control setting
and the amount of food stored.
∙ The cabinet freezer is designed for deep-freezing and long-
term storage of frozen food, and for making ice cubes.
∙ To take advantage of the cabinet’s maximum capacity,
the drawers may be taken out. ( Please note that the top
drawer cannot be removed ) .
∙ To ensure that nutritious elements such as vitamins are
not lost, fresh food should be deep-frozen right through as
quickly as possible. To that effect, the prepared food should
be placed into the rapid-freeze drawers, properly spaced in
one or two rows.
∙ Avoid contact with food that has already been frozen.
∙ Caution: Do not exceed the maximum freezing capacity
per day. The product data sheet at the end of this manual
contains details of the maximum daily freezing capacity.
∙ To accelerate the freezing process, turn the temperature
control to its maximum setting. After 24 hours, once the food
is well frozen, the temperature control can be set back to its
original position.
Caution:
∙ To ensure suf fi cient
distribution of cold air,
keep a minimum distance
of 2.5 cm between the
vapouriser assembly and
the tray containing the
food to be frozen.
