OPERATION
Before using
Remove all securing tapes. Wash inside the appliance with lukewarm water and bicarbonate of soda (5 ml to 0.5 litre of water).
Do not use soap or detergent as the smell may linger. Dry thoroughly.
To Start the Appliance
Allow the appliance to stand for 2 hours after installation.
Plug in the appliance and switch on at the mains supply. Turn the thermostat control to a midway setting (3-4) and adjust the slider control, situated on the back wall of the fridge section, to a midway position between ÒcoldÓ and ÒcoldestÓ. Leave the appliance for approximately 4 hours for the correct temperature to be reached before placing food inside.
To switch off the appliance turn the thermostat control to position ÒOÓ
Setting the temperature
The temperature inside the appliance is regulated by a thermostat with 6 temperature positions and an ÒOFFÓ (O) position.
Position 1 = minimum coldness Position 6 = maximum coldness
Turn the thermostat dial to the required position.
The intermediate position is usually the most suitable (3-4).
The thermostat control regulates the temperature both within the fridge and the freezer compartment. The thermostat setting can vary as the temperature inside the appliance depends on the following factors:
Ðroom temperature
Ðhow often the door is opened
Ðhow much food is stored
Ðposition of the appliance
Use of an air circulation slider control - COOL FLOW SYSTEM
Your appliance has an air circulation slider control situated at the rear of the fridge compartment, which controls the amount of cold air circulated through the fridge compartment.
When the ambient temperature is between 10¡C and 16¡C, the slider control should be in the ÒcoldÓ position.
When the ambient temperature is above 16¡C the slider control should be midway between ÒcoldÓ and ÒcoldestÓ.
When the ambient temperature is very high (i.e. hot summer days) position the slider control to ÒcoldestÓ.

Fresh food refrigeration
To obtain the best performance, do not store warm food or evaporating liquids in the refrigerator; cover or wrap the food, particularly if it has a strong flavour.
Do not cover the shelves with any protective material, such as paper, cardboard or plastic, which may obstruct the air circulation.
To help you use your refrigerator correctly, here are some more useful hints:
Raw meat (beef, pork, lamb & poultry or chicken): wrap in polythene bags and place on the glass shelf above the salad drawers.
Meat can only be stored safely in this way for one or two days at the most.
Fruit & vegetables: these should be thoroughly cleaned and placed in the salad drawers.
Butter & cheese: these should be placed in special airtight containers or wrapped in aluminium foil or polythene bags to exclude as much air as possible.
Milk bottles: these should have a cap and should be stored in the bottle rack on the door.

Warning
If using the appliance with the salad drawer removed, please ensure the vent in the back wall of the appliance is not obstructed.

Positioning the door shelves
The door shelves can be easily removed for cleaning. Gently ease the shelf in the directions shown.
Adjustment of the door shelves can be made to accommodate varying heights of bottles and other containers. Store light items such as small cartons and jars on the door shelves. The bottle shelf can be used for the storage of heavier bottles.
Positioning the inner shelves
The walls of the refrigerator have runners so that shelves can be positioned as desired.
