Guidelines for obtaining optimum storage:
1. This appliance for the short-term storage
of fresh food and drinks.
2. Cooked dishes should be stored in airtight
containers and should be kept on either of the
removable glass shelves.
3. Fresh wrapped produce can be kept on
the shelves
be cleaned and stored in the vegetable
drawer.
4. Bottles can be kept in the door shelves or
on the bottle shelf.
5. To store fresh meat, wrap it in polythene
bags and place it in the coldest place in the
fridge compartment. Don’t let meat juice from
fresh meat come into contact with other types
of food. For safety, only store fresh meat for
two to three days.
6. For maximum efficiency, the removable
shelves should not

7. The shelves are fitted with rear stops and
tilting for storing bottles. Lift shelf clear of
grooves when adjusting.
8. To tilt a shelf, place the back of the shelf
one level below the front of the shelf. To
remove a tilted shelf, first release the back
from the one level below the front of the shelf.
To remove a tilted shelf, first release the back
from the grooves and then pull.

Temperature control and adjustment
The internal temperature could be adjusted by
kept to the desired temperature. Remember to
Before operating
the thermostat control.
The temperatures obtained inside the
appliance could oscillate depending on the
usage conditions: location, environmental
temperature, doors opening frequency, the
quantity of food. The position of the
thermostat control will change depending on
these conditions. Generally, for an
environmental temperature of 25°C (77°F),
the thermostat control will be settled in a
medium position.
Avoid some positions of the thermostat control
that could involve a continuously running of
the appliance. This could involve a
temperature decrease under 0°C, and
therefore the drinks and fresh food could
freeze and an excessive ice quantity could be
accumulated on the internal wall. Therefore
adjust the thermostat control to obtain the
desired temperature. Some sections of the
fridge may be cooler or warmer (such as the
vegetable drawer and top part of the cabinet)
which is quite normal.
We recommend that you check the
temperature with an accurate thermometer to
ensure that the storage compartments are
read off the thermometer very quickly as the
temperature on the thermometer will rise very
rapidly after you remove it from the freezer.
Please remember that each time the door is
opened cold air escapes and the internal
temperature rises. Therefore never leave the
door open and ensure that it is closed
immediately after food is put in or removed.
User guide
Before you start using the refrigerator check
that:
1. The legs have been adjusted for perfect
levelling.
2. The interior is dry and that air can
circulate freely at the back of the appliance.
3. The interior is clean as recommended
under the "Cleaning and care" section.
4. The plug is inserted into the wall socket
and the electricity supply is switched on.
Avoid accidental disconnection by placing
sticky tape on the switch.
And note that:
5. You will hear a noise as the compressor
starts. The liquid and gases sealed within the
refrigeration system may also make some
noise, whether the compressor is running or
not. This is quite normal.
6. The top of the cabinet may be slightly
currugated which is quite normal due to the
manufacturing process used; it is not a defect.
7. We recommend setting the thermostat
control midway and monitor the temperature
to ensure that the appliance maintains the
desired storage temperatures (see the
"Temperature control and adjustment"
section).
8. Do not load the appliance immediately
after it is switched on. Wait until the correct
storage temperature has been reached. We
recommend checking the temperature with an
accurate thermometer (see the "Temperature
control and adjustment" section).

it
The refrigerator defrosts automatically. The
thawed water runs to the drain tube via a
collection container at the back of the
appliance (Fig. 5).
During defrosting, water droplets may form at
the back of the fridge compartment where a
concealed evaporator is located. Some
droplets may remain on the liner and refreeze
when defrosting is completed. Do not use
pointed or sharp-edged objects such as
knives or forks to remove the droplets which
have refrozen.
If, at any time, the defrost water does not
drain from the collection channel, check that
no food particles have blocked the drain tube.
The drain tube can be cleared with a pipecleaner or similar instrument.
Check that the tube is permanently placed with

screw-cap type 15 Watt (Max) bulb from your
local electrical store and then fit it.
Carefully dispose of the burnt-out light bulb
immediately.
How to reposition the door
Proceed in numerical order (Fig. 7).
