Apartment & Appliance Guide

Turning the sofa into a bed

1. Remove the loose cushions from the sofa.
2. Pull the lower section of the sofa outward until it is fully extended.
3. Arrange the cushions / mattress sections to create a flat sleeping surface.

Getting the bedding out

1. Go to the foot (end) of the double bed and find the fabric pull tag / strap.
2. Pull the strap upwards — the bed base and mattress will pivot and lift upwards.
3. The sofa-bed bedding is stored in the compartment underneath. Take out what you need, then lower the bed gently back down.

The temperature shown on the thermostat is the current room temperature, not necessarily the target temperature.

To increase the heating

1. Press + until the desired target temperature appears.
2. Press the tick ✔ button to confirm.
3. The heating will continue until the room reaches that temperature.

To reduce / turn off the heating

1. Press – until the target temperature is lower than the current room temperature.
2. Press the tick ✔ button.
3. The heating will stop automatically.

During particularly warm weather:

• Windows can be left slightly open on the tilt position.
• Keeping the curtains closed during the hottest part of the day helps reduce heat.
• Opening a living-room window and a bedroom window together creates a useful cross-breeze.
• In the evening, once outside temperatures fall, opening windows wider helps release accumulated heat.
• An air cooler is also provided — see the next section.

The air cooler works best with a frozen ice pack in its water tank. Frozen packs are kept in the first drawer of the freezer.

Changing the ice pack & refilling

1. Turn the air cooler off and unplug it.
2. Open the rear access panel using the latch.
3. Carefully slide out the water tank.
4. Remove the beige ice pack from the tank.
5. Replace it with a frozen ice pack from the first drawer of the freezer.
6. Put the used ice pack back into the freezer so it is frozen and ready for the next change.
7. If required, refill the tank with clean cold water — do not exceed the maximum fill line.
8. Slide the tank back into position.
9. Close and secure the rear panel.
10. Plug the unit back in and switch it on.

Induction hobs only heat when they detect a compatible pan — the surface itself stays relatively cool.

1. Press the power button to switch the hob on.
2. Place an induction-compatible pan onto the cooking zone you want to use.
3. Select the cooking zone on the control panel.
4. Adjust the heat using the + / – controls.
5. When finished, set the zone back to 0 (or press the zone off control), then press the power button to switch the hob off.

1. Select the cooking function using the function dial — choose fan oven, conventional heat or grill as required.
2. Set the temperature using the temperature dial or controls.
3. Allow a few minutes for the oven to preheat before putting food in.
4. After use, turn both dials back to off (0) to switch the oven off.

Tip: the fan oven setting cooks more evenly and usually needs a slightly lower temperature than a conventional setting.

The extractor is a pull-out / sliding unit located above the hob. Pull the front section outward to reach the controls and operate it.

1. Pull the front section of the extractor outward.
2. Select the required fan speed using the controls.
3. Use it while cooking to remove steam and cooking smells.
4. Switch the fan off after cooking.
5. Push the extractor back into position when finished.

1. Press Home on the remote control.
2. Browse the installed streaming and UK television apps.

UK television apps

• BBC iPlayer — BBC channels and catch-up.
• ITVX — ITV programming.
• Channel 4 — Channel 4 programming.
• My5 — Channel 5 programming.

Some streaming platforms (such as Netflix or Disney+) may require you to sign in to your own account.

The apartment uses BT fibre broadband, distributed through white cylindrical Deco Wi-Fi units positioned in the property. Your internet connection comes through these units.

Restarting the Deco

If the Deco is flashing red, we kindly ask you to restart it:

1. Switch off the Deco’s power.
2. Leave it switched off for approximately 3 seconds.
3. Switch the power back on.
4. Allow the Deco a short time to reconnect.

Restarting the Deco in this way often restores the internet connection.
