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.
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:
Ð room temperature
Ð how often the door is opened
Ð how much food is stored
Ð position of the appliance
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.
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. Open the fridge door. Turn the thermostat
control to a midway setting (3-4) and adjust the slider
control 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
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.

Use and features of the CRISPÕN
FRESH filter
ÒCrispÕn freshÓ is the glass shelf on top of the salad
crispers which is fitted with a special removable
green filter.
The filter allows cool air from the fridge to circulate
through the drawers and help prevent moisture loss.
By retaining moisture in foods such as fresh fruit,
vegetables and salad they are kept fresher for
longer.
Cleaning the filter
The filter is held by two small support frames which
press into position and are therefore easily removed
for cleaning. To do this, turn the glass shelf upside
down and release the frames as shown in figure.
The filter and the glass cover can be washed gently
in warm soapy water, they should not be put in the
dishwasher.
Replacement filters can be purchased as a spare
part from your local Zanussi Service Centre.

Cool Check Guide
The guide consists of a temperature sensitive strip
sealed in a shelf trim.
When the fridge is operating at the safe temperature
to store food the guide will appear black. If the
temperature rises above this level the guide will
show the words TOO WARM.
Positioning of the Cool Check
The shelf with the cool check temperature guide
must be placed in the fridge according to the
instructions located on the fridge wall and always
ensure the guide is at the front.
If the Cool Check shows TOO WARM
In certain conditions the temperature guide may
show TOO WARM if:
¥ The fridge is switched off
¥ The door has been recently opened
¥ A quantity of warmer food has been introduced to
the fridge
¥ The fridge temperature is above the
recommended maximum for the safe storage of
food.
The cool check will change to show ÒTOO WARMÒ
very quickly after the door has been opened. It will
however take a number of hours to return to black,
indicating that the temperature is correct.
The appliance should be left overnight and the cool
check examined in the morning. If the cool check
shows TOO WARM, turn the thermostat to a colder
setting leave overnight and examine again the
following morning.
Hints and Tips
¥ The guide is only suitable for use in the model
supplied.
¥ The guide will not operate in the freezer
compartment.
¥ When cleaning the shelf take care not to immerse
in water, and wipe away any spills.
