The Igenix Tall Larder Fridge is designed for reliable performance in keeping your fresh produce and dairy perfectly chilled. Its 235-litre capacity comfortably accommodates a family's weekly groceries, allowing you to store bulkier items or multiple shopping bags with ease.
Utilize the thermostat dial control located inside the fridge to set your desired temperature. A mid-range setting is usually sufficient, but you can adjust it lower for colder storage or higher if you find items are getting too cold. Consistent temperature helps preserve food quality and safety.
Adjustable Shelves: The 4 adjustable glass shelves offer ultimate versatility. Raise or lower them to accommodate tall bottles, large platters, or stacked containers. This flexibility prevents wasted space and allows for efficient organization.
Door Balconies: Use the 3 door balconies for frequently accessed items like milk, condiments, and smaller bottles. These keep items organized and within easy reach.
Salad Crisper: The large salad crisper drawer is specifically designed to maintain optimal humidity levels for fruits and vegetables, helping them stay fresh and crisp for longer. Always place produce directly into this drawer, ideally in its original packaging or a produce bag.
Egg Tray: The included egg tray provides a secure spot for eggs, preventing them from rolling and breaking.
Placement: Choose a suitable location away from direct sunlight, heat sources (like ovens or radiators), and extreme cold. Ensure there's adequate ventilation space around the back and sides of the fridge.
Leveling: Use the adjustable feet at the bottom of the fridge to ensure it is perfectly level. This prevents excessive noise, improves door sealing, and ensures efficient operation. Turn the feet clockwise to raise and counter-clockwise to lower.
Power Connection: After positioning and leveling, plug the fridge into a dedicated power outlet. Allow the fridge to stand for at least 4 hours before turning it on and loading with food, to allow the refrigerant to settle.
Reversible Door: The door comes pre-installed to open in one direction. If your kitchen layout requires the door to open from the opposite side, refer to the detailed instructions in your user manual for reversing the door. This process typically involves moving hinges and the door handle to the opposite side.
Dimensions: With dimensions of H:142.0 x W:55.0 x D:55.0 cm, this fridge is designed to fit into most standard kitchen spaces without compromising on internal storage.
Cleaning: Regularly clean the interior and exterior of your fridge to maintain hygiene and efficiency. Unplug the appliance before cleaning. Use a mild detergent dissolved in warm water and a soft cloth for interior surfaces. Wipe down shelves, door balconies, and the salad crisper. The exterior can be wiped with a damp cloth.
Defrosting: As a larder fridge, the cooling element may accumulate frost over time. Periodically defrost the fridge to ensure optimal cooling efficiency. Refer to your user manual for detailed defrosting instructions. This typically involves emptying the fridge, unplugging it, and allowing the frost to melt naturally, collecting the water in a towel.
Door Seal: Regularly inspect the door seal for any signs of wear or damage. A tight seal is crucial for maintaining internal temperature and energy efficiency. Clean the seal with warm water and a soft cloth.
Ventilation: Ensure the ventilation grills at the back of the fridge remain clear and free from obstructions to allow proper airflow and prevent overheating.
