Interior lighting
∙ The interior light can be switched on by means of the
separate On/Off switch.
∙ Caution: Do not remove the cover of the interior LED
light. If there should be any malfunction, please contact the
customer service for assistance.
Reversible door
The design provides for the door to be reversed, i.e. for right-
hinged (default installation) to become left-hinged.
Warning: Always disconnect the unit from the mains before
any maintenance or repair work is carried out.
Before you get started, please note the following:
∙ Always ensure that the correct number of washers are used
on the hinge bolts.
∙ To ensure that the door can close tightly against the frame,
take the utmost care that it is properly aligned during re-
assembly.
1. Lower the unit carefully onto its back.
2. Remove the two screws (7) and take off the bottom hinge
bracket (8), together with the set of washers (6) on the
hinge pin, and the spacer element (5).
3. Remove the two screws from the angled bracket (11) and
take off the bracket together with the spacer element and
the covering panel (10).
4. Slide the door (4) off the top hinge pin and take it off.
5. Remove the hinge pin (2) together with the nut (1) and
washers (3) from the top hinge bracket, and fi t the entire
assembly to the opposite side of the cabinet.
6. Turn the door through 180°, and then slide it over the
re-positioned top hinge pin (2).
7. Fit the hinge pin of the bottom hinge bracket (8) into the
door.

9. Screw the angled bracket (11), together with the spacer
element and the covering panel (10), to the opposite side
of the unit.
10. Return the whole unit to its upright position.
Caution!
Wait at least 4 hours before re-connecting the unit to the
mains.
De-frosting and cleaning
∙ During operation, you may notice a build-up of frost around
the integral evaporator sealed into the rear of the inside
cabinet. This layer of frost will start melting when the
compressor is not working. Through a system of hoses,
the melt-water drains into the collection tray below the
compressor, where it will be absorbed into the surrounding
air.
∙ The unit does not therefore require de-frosting, but only
proper cleaning.
∙ To enable the melt-water to drain freely, always ensure that
the channel and discharge opening in the cabinet are free of
any blockage.
∙ Any water collecting in the bottom should be removed.
∙ Remark: Do not use abrasive tools, materials containing
alcohol or harsh cleaning solutions. Do not use any electrical
appliances, such as steam cleaners, for de-frosting or
cleaning.
∙ Always remove the plug from the wall socket before
cleaning.
∙ Do not pour water over or inside the unit.
∙ For frequent cleaning we recommend the use of warm water
with some mild detergent.
∙ The cabinet should be cleaned once a month.
∙ Any accessories should be cleaned separately with soapy
water. Do not put them in a dishwasher.
∙ After cleaning, thoroughly clean all surfaces with fresh water
before wiping them completely dry. When re-inserting the plug
into the wall socket ensure that you have dry hands.
∙ To save energy and to ensure optimum performance, the
compressor (at the rear) should be carefully cleaned at least
twice a year, with a brush or a vacuum cleaner.
Trouble-shooting
Certain typical sounds can be heard when the appliance is
switched on. These sounds are caused by:
∙ the electric motor
within the compressor
assembly; during
compressor start-up
the sound level will be
slightly higher for a short
time.
∙ the cooling agent fl owing
through the circuit.
