Follow these easy steps to get your Hotpoint HZ2022 Refrigerator up and running in no time.
Place the Hotpoint HZ2022 Refrigerator in a well-ventilated, humidity-free room. Ensure it is away from any sources of heat like direct sunlight or electric stoves to allow for efficient operation.
After transporting the appliance, set it upright and wait at least 3 hours before connecting it to the electrical mains. Ensure the appliance is earthed and the plug complies with the law before inserting it into a 13amp socket.
Before starting the appliance, clean the compartments and accessories thoroughly with lukewarm water and bicarbonate of soda or neutral soap. Avoid using solvents, abrasive products, bleach, or ammonia.
Plug the appliance in and verify that the GREEN and RED indicator lights are illuminated. Press the ON/OFF switch to the '-' position. Turn the TEMPERATURE ADJUSTMENT knob to the Super position, ensuring the YELLOW indicator light is on.
After 24 hours, reposition the TEMPERATURE ADJUSTMENT knob to a medium setting once the freezing process is complete and the red indicator light switches off. The freezer is now ready for use.
To freeze food, set the TEMPERATURE ADJUSTMENT knob to the Super position and place the food in the top compartment, ensuring it does not touch any already frozen items. After 24 hours, return the knob to a medium setting.
Do not obstruct the rear fan grills to maintain good ventilation and energy efficiency. This will ensure the compressor and condenser operate correctly.
To conserve energy, install the appliance in a cool and well-ventilated room, avoid keeping the door open for long periods, and do not overfill the appliance to allow proper air circulation.
