you with information on how to operate and care for your appliance in order that you gain

the maximum benefit from it and enjoy many years of trouble free use.

Introduction

Unpacking

• Please ensure that packaging material is disposed of in a responsible manner.

• Plastic bags should be cut up to prevent children playing with them and accidentally

suffocating.

• If the appliance is damaged in any way, do not use it. Report the damage to your

dealer, who will take the necessary corrective action.

1. Remove the hinge cover screw. Insert a blade or

small flat screw driver into the side groove of the

cover.

2. Turn the top hinge fastener 3 to 4 times in an

anti-clockwise direction and disconnect the wir-

ing harness

3. Remove the hinge by lifting the front and pulling

it free. Be sure to hold the door securely as the

top is now no longer secured.

4. Lift the door free of the bottom hinge pin.

Removing the refrigerator door

The refrigerator door has 1 earth wire to be unscrewed

at the top hinge.

Otherwise the procedure is the same as described

above.

Removing the freezer door

Before installation

Measure the width of the kitchen entrance through which the unit must pass.

The refrigerator measures 1790mm x 903mm x 735mm. (H x W x D incl. handles.)

If the unit will not pass easily through the kitchen entrance, without risking damage, then

either the kitchen door or those of the refrigerator or both should be removed to allow

free passage. Once the unit is in position the doors can be re-fitted.

sources such as stoves, geysers and direct sunlight. Allow an airspace at the rear of

the refrigerator for ventilation purposes.

An electrical wall plug should be nearby and easily accessible.

into the left front levelling foot and turn it. Clockwise will

raise the unit and anti-clockwise will lower it.

To adjust the refrigerator door: Repeat the procedure ,

turning the right hand levelling foot until the unit stands

level and the doors are aligned.

It is advisable to adjust the cabinet so that it tilts slightly backwards. This will ensure that

doors close properly. The doors must be aligned and the cabinet must stand level (left to

right) To adjust levels proceed as follows:

Caution notes

• Never use flammable gas, benzene, thinners, petrol or other flammable liquids and

sprays near the refrigerator.

• Do not store flammable gas or liquids in the refrigerator or freezer.

• Do not store medicine or academic research samples requiring strict temperature

control in the refrigerator or freezer.

• Always unplug the refrigerator when cleaning it.

• Avoid touching metal freezer containers with bare hands as “cold burn” could result.

• Do not store liquids, pot plants or open containers on top of the refrigerator as these

might spill causing electrical shorting.

• When discarding an old refrigerator please render the doors inoperative as chil-

dren ,while playing, might get trapped inside and suffocate.

• Do not place sealed liquid containers in the freezer. Liquids expand as they freeze

and containers might rupture as a result.

• Allow hot food to cool before putting it in the freezer.

• Seal all foods, or place in airtight containers to prevent dehydration.

• Remember, liquids can increase in volume when frozen. Do not store sealed bottles,

jars or cans in the freezer as the contents will freeze, expand and rupture the container.

• Do not exceed the expiry date shown on food packs.

Refrigerator

• Be aware that tropical fruit like bananas can easily deteriorate if the storage tempera-

ture is too low.

• Allow sufficient space between stored foods for the air to circulate.

Questions and answers

Why do the front and sides of the refrigera-

tor feel warm? Heating tubes are located beneath the sur-

face which are designed to prevent water

vapour from condensing on a cold surface.

Why are the doors sometimes difficult to

open? When the door is closed and opened imme-

diately thereafter, warm air which entered

the refrigerator caused a pressure difference

which tends to suck the door closed mo-

mentarily. Wait a little while and the door

should open easily once more.

Why does the refrigerator sometimes make

a peculiar gurgling, buzzing or cracking

noise.?

These are normal and could be caused by

the compressor, the defrost system, the fan,

and material shrinkage / expansion

Levelling the refrigerator can reduce these

sounds.

Why does moisture form on the interior

walls and lamp housing? If the refrigerator or freezer is located in a

hot and humid area, and the door is opened

frequently, water droplets or dew may form

on the interior walls of the appliance.

This has no effect on the performance and

the water may simply be wiped up using an

absorbent cloth.

Why is the refrigerator too warm or too

cold? Set the freezer and refrigerator temperatures

to a more suitable setting.

Before calling a service technician to assist with a problem, please check:

• Are the temperatures set correctly?

• Is the power switched OFF? The power should be ON.

• Has a house fuse blown or a circuit tripped out? Repair or re-set as necessary.

• Is the 15-amp plug pushed firmly into the wall socket? Check another appliance such

as a toaster or kettle in the same socket.

• Has the door been left open for a long time? Close the door and monitor performance.

• Is there adequate provision for airflow at the rear of the unit.?

• Are any of the shelves so tightly packed as to obstruct air flow between stored foods?

Remember that you may be charged for a service call even during the warranty period if

the fault is caused by any of the above.

If you have followed the instructions and still have a problem, contact the nearest

Defy Service Centre. They will be able to advise you on any aspect of the machine or

send a qualified technician to repair it.
