When the ambient room temperature is 25°C, a setting  
of half way between ‘Off’ and ‘Colder’ recommended.

When you change temperature settings, make small 
adjustments and wait 24 hours before assessing whether 
you need to make further changes.

WIM1200 and WIM1400

Starting up and temperature regulation (WRM2400)

•  Insert the plug of the connection lead into the plug 

socket with protective earth contact. When the 
refrigerator compartment door is opened, the internal 
lighting is switched on. After the fridge has been 
placed in position, wait for 5 minutes before electricity 
is supplied. Don't store anything until the temperature 
inside the fridge becomes low enough. 

• The temperature selector knob is located on the right of 

the refrigerator compartment.

Setting O means: Off. 

Clockwise rotate the knob to turn on the appliance. 

Setting 1 means: 

Highest temperature, warmest setting. 

Setting 7 (end-stop) means: 

Lowest temperature, coldest setting.

IMPORTANT 

Normally we advise you select setting of 2 or 3 Or 4, if 
you want the temperature higher or colder please turn 
the knob to warmer or colder setting accordingly. When 
you turn the knob to colder which can lead to the more 
energy efficiency-Otherwise, it would result in more 
energy-consuming. 

IMPORTANT 

 

High ambient temperatures (e.g. on hot summer days) 
and a cold setting (position 6 to 7) may cause the 
compressor to run continuously or even non-stop! 
Reason: when the ambient temperature is high, the 
compressor must run continuously to maintain the low 
temperature in the appliance

ICE BOX MODELS

ICE BOX MODELS 

(WIM1000 & WIM1200)

NOTE: The ice box compartment of the WIM1000 is 
recommended for only making ice, it is not for the  
storage of frozen food.

Making ice

To make ice cubes, fill the ice tray with water and place  
it in the ice box. To remove ice cubes easily, run water  
on the tray before gently twisting and inverting the tray.

De-icing

The de-icing system for the fridge compartment is 
automatic in models WIM1200, and vertical fridges 
WRM1400 and WRM2400. The rear inside of the  
fridge is covered with frost when the compressor 
operates and de-ices when it stops. When the ice  
melts, the water evaporates automatically.  
WIM1000 achieves its cooling from the ice box.

INITIAL START-UP

INITIAL START-UP – FRIDGES

Refrigerator models WRM1400 & WRM2400 have been 
fitted with a 'wet wall' evaporator which is positioned 
behind the rear liner. The rear liner will, at times be wet 
or appear frosted. This is normal and demonstrates that 
the refrigerator is functioning correctly. This product is 
designed to operate on a power supply of 220/240 volts 
50Hz. Connect to a separate power point with a correctly 
earthed three pin socket. Do not use double adaptors.

Controlling the temperature in your refrigerator 

Refrigerators work by transferring heat from the food 
inside to the outside air. This operation makes the back 
and sides of the refrigerator (particularly at start-up) 
feel warm – which is normal. Make sure you fully close 
the refrigerator door after loading or removing food. If 
the door is left partially open, a heavy frost will coat the 
inside of the ice box. Ensure shelves are pushed back 
completely to prevent them holding the door open. 

If the unit is unplugged, power lost or turned off, you 
must wait 3 to 5 minutes before restarting the unit. If 
you attempt to restart the unit before this time delay, the 
refrigerator will not start.

When the thermostat is turned to it’s lowest setting 
and past the point of resistance, the appliance will not 
operate.

WARNING

Power is still supplied to the appliance.

Condensation caused  
by the cooling plate

Turn the control knob clockwise to turn the appliance on. 
Rotating clockwise will make the appliance colder.

For all models, ‘Less Cold’ corresponds to the warmest 
temperature while ‘Colder’ the coldest.

Adjusting the control knobs of WIM1000 amd WIM1200 
will adjust the temperature in both the fridge and freezer 
compartments.

When the ambient room temperature is 16°C, a setting  
of half way between ‘Less Cold’ and ‘Off’ recommended.

De-icing the ice box

The ice box compartment must always be de-iced when 
the layer of frost reaches a thickness of about 4mm. This 
compartment should be de-iced at least once a year 
regardless of the thickness of the frost. Model WIM1000 
has the added feature of a drip tray to collect the water. 
When de-icing, a scraper or plastic utensil may be used. 
Never use metal instruments or electrical appliances to 
de-ice the ice box.

1.   Switch off and disconnect the appliance from the  
 

electricity supply.

2.    Remove the plug from the drain (Model WIM1000 

diagram below)

3.   Place a container underneath the drain hole to 

collect the water.

4.   To speed up the process, you can place a bowl of hot 

water inside the compartment and close the door.

5.   When de-icing is complete, clean the appliance 

before restoring the power.
