To ensure your safety and the safety of others, please read the following safety
precautions before you use your Fridge Freezer.
Your Fridge Freezer conforms to current safety requirements. Inappropriate use can,
however, lead to personal injury and damage to property. To avoid the risk of accidents and
damage to your Fridge Freezer, read this user manual carefully before using it for the first
time. It contains important information on the installation, safety, use and maintenance
of your Fridge Freezer. Retain this user manual for future use and pass it on to any new

Do not expose your Fridge Freezer to moisture or rain.
Always remove the mains plug from the wall socket when not in use or before any service
operation.
Your Fridge Freezer is designed to be operated by adults. Children should not be allowed to
play with the Fridge Freezer or tamper with the controls.
Before setting up your Fridge Freezer, check for any external visible damage. Do not install
or use your Fridge Freezer if it is damaged.
Before connecting your Fridge Freezer, ensure that the information on the data plate (voltage
and connected load) matches that of the mains electricity supply. If in doubt, consult a
qualified electrician.

SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Do not connect your Fridge Freezer to the mains electricity supply using an extension lead.
A damaged power cord/plug can cause fire or give you an electric shock. When damaged it
must be replaced, this should only be done by qualified personnel.
Never remove the plug from the socket by pulling the cord. Always hold the plug.
Never touch the power cord/plug with wet hands as this could cause a short circuit or
electric shock.
Never let the power cord be crushed by the Fridge Freezer itself or other heavy objects.
Never bend the power cord excessively.
Never let the power cord touch or pass over heating appliances.
Do not remove items from the freezer if your hands are damp/wet. This could cause skin
abrasions or frost/freezer burns.
Do not place fizzy drinks, bottles and cans in the freezer compartment as they can burst as
the contents freeze.
Unauthorised repairs could result in unforeseen dangers for the user. Repairs should only be
undertaken by an approved service agent using genuine spare parts.
WARNING: Do not use other electrical appliances inside the Fridge Freezer.
Do not refreeze food once it has thawed out.
Do not make any alterations to your Fridge Freezer, unless authorised to do so by Servis.

The packaging of the machine could be hazardous to children. Please refer to the disposal
instructions on the rear cover.
This Fridge Freezer is intended to be used in household and similar applications such as:
- Staff kitchen areas in shops, offices and other working environments
- Farm houses and by clients in hotels, motels and other residential type environments
- Bed and breakfast type environments
- Catering and similar non-retail applications
Please take care when moving your Fridge Freezer. It is heavy and we recommend that a
minimum of four people lift it. Your Fridge Freezer has a wheel in each back corner. You
will find it easiest to move your Fridge Freezer when it is tilted backwards and pushed into
position.
The small quantity of refrigerant used in the Fridge Freezer is eco-friendly R600a (an
isobutene) and is flammable/explosive if ignited in enclosed conditions.
Because of the very low temperatures in the Freezer compartment, some foods, such as ice
lollies could cause frost burns if consumed immediately.
WARNING: Keep the ventilation openings of the Fridge Freezer clear from obstruction.
Do not store medicine or academic research samples that require strict temperature control
in the Fridge Freezer.
When cleaning, do not use sharp implements as they may damage the Fridge Freezer.
Store pre-packed frozen foods in accordance with their instructions and use by date.
WARNING: Do not use mechanical devices or other means to accelerate the defrosting
process.

SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Ecological Hints and Tips:
We have provided a few important hints and tips, so that you can save on the cost of energy and
help protect the environment.
Do not install the Fridge Freezer close to sources of heat such as a radiator.
Install the Fridge Freezer in a well ventilated room and keep the openings clear from
obstruction.
Do not install the Fridge Freezer on a wet floor or in a location with high humidity/moisture
content.
Food which is to be frozen (when cool) should be placed in the fridge compartment before
being transferred to the freezer.
Pack all foods into airtight packages before placing them into the freezer compartment.
Ensure there are no obstructions preventing the doors from closing properly.
Try to avoid keeping the doors open for long periods or opening the doors too frequently as
warm air will enter the cabinet and cause the compressor to switch on unnecessarily often.
Environmental Information:
Once installation is complete, please dispose of the packaging with due regard to safety
and the environment. Disposal instructions can be found on the rear cover.
Your Fridge Freezer does not contain gases which damage the ozone layer, in either its
refrigerant circuit or insulation materials.

Advanced Features
Your Servis Fridge Freezer contains several advanced features including:
Multi-Zone Technology; this allows you to independently control the different zones
of your Fridge Freezer. For example you may wish to decrease your freezer capacity while
increasing your refrigerator capacity. For more information please refer to page 25.
Energy Efficiency; the fan runs independently of the compressor. This maintains and
balances air circulation between the cooler shelves.
Anti-Finger Inox Doors; a special layer over the coated stainless door sheet prevents
unsightly finger marks from appearing.
No Frost Technology
Your Fridge Freezer differs from many other
standard Fridge Freezers.
Other Fridge Freezers may experience
freezing in the freezer compartment due to
door openings and the humidity in the food.
In such Fridge Freezers defrosting is required;
the fridge has to be periodically turned
off, the frozen food moved to a suitable
container and the ice gathered in the freezer
compartment removed.
Your ‘No Frost’ Fridge Freezer prevents such
problems by evenly blowing dry cold air into
the fridge and freezer compartments through
a blower fan. This cools your food evenly and
uniformly, preventing humidity and freezing.

BEFORE USING YOUR FRIDGE FREEZER
When using your Fridge Freezer for the first time, or after transportation, keep it in an
upright position for at least 3 hours before plugging into the mains. This allows efficient
operation and prevents damage to the compressor.
We recommend that you wipe all shelving and trays with a cloth soaked in warm water
mixed with a teaspoon of sodium bicarbonate before use. After cleaning, rinse with warm
water and dry.
You may notice a slight odour when using your Fridge Freezer for the first time. This is
perfectly normal and will fade away once the fridge starts to cool.
Before using your Fridge Freezer, make sure that it has been connected to an appropriate
mains power supply and is switched on at the socket.
When using your Fridge Freezer for the first time, set the refrigerator compartment to 40C
and zones 1 and 2 to -180C. Please see page 17 for information on setting the temperature.
Your Fridge Freezer has a 5 minute built in delay function, designed to prevent damage
to the compressor. When power is applied to your Fridge Freezer, it will begin to operate
normally after 5 minutes.

FOOD STORAGE GUIDANCE
To help you use your Fridge Freezer efficiently, please take the time to read the following tips and
guidance.
Storage Areas:
The circulation or air within your Fridge Freezer causes areas of different temperatures. It is
recommended that you make use of these areas when storing your food.
The coldest area of the refrigerator compartment is at the bottom above the chiller
compartment. We recommend that you use this area to store food that will perish easily, such as
fish, ready meals, baked goods and dairy products.
The warmest area of your refrigerator is the top shelf of the door. We recommend that you store
butter and cheeses in this shelf.
Storing Food:
It is best to store your food covered or packaged to prevent it from drying out and to prevent
smells affecting other food items in your refrigerator. Store fruit and vegetable items loose in the
crisper containers. Avoid storing potatoes, onions and garlic in your refrigerator.
Other tips you might find helpful are:
Wash your food before storage.
Allow warm or hot food to cool down before storing. This helps to reduce power
consumption.
Keep as much space as possible between your items of food. This allows the cold air to
circulate freely around them.
T: 0800 0124 382
28
FOOD STORAGE TIPS
Take care when storing tropical fruit such as pineapples as they can quickly deteriorate in
lower temperatures.
Divide and separate food into smaller pieces before storage.
Cover or wrap food to prevent odours. We recommend that you store meat loosely covered
as this allows air to circulate around the meat causing the surface to dry slightly, helping to
prevent the growth of bacteria.
Do not store food close so that it blocks the Crisper Air Adjustment Button.

in your refrigerator compartment.

The Freezer Compartment:
You should use the freezer compartments for storing food for long periods and making ice. Aim
to freeze fresh food as quickly as possible so that it keeps its taste and appearance.
We recommend that you place food you would like to freeze in the upper tray of the freezer
compartment for 24 hours before placing it next to other frozen foods. It is important that you do
not exceed the maximum freezing capacity of your Fridge Freezer, this will help to ensure that
your food freezes as quickly as possible. The maximum freezing capacity for freezing within a 24
hour period is 18 kg.
The storage durations of frozen food can be changed by a variety of factors, such as; the
frequency of the doors opening and closing, thermostat settings, food types and the period
of time that elapsed from when the food was acquired to the time it entered the freezer. It is
important that you follow the packaging on frozen foods and do not exceed the storage duration.

CLEANING AND CARE
Power Disruption:
In the event of a power cut, please do not open any of the doors of your Fridge Freezer. Your Fridge
Freezer will preserve your frozen food in an ambient environmental temperature of up to 250C for
approximately 13 hours. This time period will be shorter if the ambient temperature is higher.
When power is re-applied after a power cut your Fridge Freezer will not operate for 4-5 minutes.
This is to allow the gas in the cooling system to balance and is perfectly normal.
CLEANING AND CARE
From time to time it will be necessary to carry out cleaning of your Fridge Freezer.

CLEANING AND CARE
Cleaning The Vaporisation Container:
Your Fridge Freezer uses ‘No Frost’ technology and performs fully automatic defrosting. The water
formed as a result of this automatic defrosting flows into the vaporisation container at the rear of
your Fridge Freezer and evaporates. We recommend cleaning the vaporisation container at regular
intervals to prevent odours from building up.
To clean the vaporisation container:
