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 refrigerator is regulated by a thermostat with 6 temperature positions and an ÒOFFÓ (O) position.
Position 1 = minimum coldness
Position 6 = maximum coldness
Insert a coin to turn the thermostat dial to the required position.
The intermediate position is usually the most suitable (3-4).
The thermostat setting can vary as the temperature inside the refrigeration compartment 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
Important
If the fridge is not defrosting correctly, it is possible that because a very low temperature has been selected, the motor is working continuously, which prevents the defrost cycle from operating.
To ensure correct defrosting, a lower number should be selected on the thermostat and you should notice
The freezer compartment
The four-star freezer compartment is suitable for storage of commercially frozen food and for freezing fresh foods.
Freezing fresh food
When freezing large amounts of fresh food turn the thermostat to maximum approximately 1 hour prior to freezing. When the food is frozen return the thermostat back to the normal position.

that the motor cuts out from time to time, which is correct.
If you wish to return to a lower temperature, turn the thermostat to a higher number, however you should turn the setting lower occasionally to allow automatic defrosting.
Starting your appliance
Insert the plug into the wall socket.
The operating pilot light (D) will illuminate.
Ambient Temperature Switch
Low Ambient Temperature Switch
To ensure that the appliance is working efficiently when the room temperature drops below 16¡C, the switch mounted next to the thermostat control should be switched to S.
No damage can be caused by leaving the switch in this position for any period of time (see page 13 Low ambient operation). However should the temperature rise above 16¡C remember to turn the switch back to N.
Making ice cubes
The appliance is provided with two plastic ice cube trays.
Fill the trays 3/4 full to allow the ice to expand and place them in one of the freezer drawers.
To turn out the ice cubes simply give the tray a slight twist to release the cubes.
Fresh food refrigeration
To obtain the best performance, do not store warm food or evaporating liquids in the refrigerator; do 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 through them.
To help you use your refrigerator correctly, here are some more useful hints:
Raw meat (beef, pork, lamb & Poultry): wrap in polythene bags and place on the glass shelf on the top of the salad crispers.
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 crispers.
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.
Thawing
Frozen food, prior to being used, can be thawed in the fridge or at room temperature depending on the time available. Small food items may even be cooked from frozen; in this case cooking will take longer.
Any frozen food which is allowed to thaw accidentally should either be eaten as soon as possible or thrown away. Alternatively, if the food is uncooked and has not been completely defrosted it can be cooked and then refrozen.
Meat, fish and fruit should be thawed in the refrigerator compartment and small pieces of meat can even be cooked while still frozen, but you must ensure that it is thoroughly cooked through.
Vegetables should be directly immersed in boiling water; ready-cooked dishes can be placed directly in the oven in their aluminium wrapping.
A microwave oven is particularly suitable for thawing any type of frozen or deep-frozen food: follow the oven instructions, particularly regarding the
Frozen food storage
When first starting-up or after a period of non use, before putting the food in the compartment let the appliance run for at least two hours on the coldest setting, then turn the thermostat knob to the normal operating position.
Do not exceed the storage period indicated by the food manufacturer.
Finally, do not open the door frequently or leave it open longer than is absolutely necessary.
Important
Do not put carbonated liquids, (fizzy drinks etc.), in the freezer compartment.
Ice Iollies, if consumed immediately after removal from the freezer, can cause low temperature skin burns.
Do not remove items from the freezer if your hands are damp/wet, as this could cause skin abrasions or Òfrost/freezer burnsÓ.
Important
In the event of a power cut do not open the door. The food in the freezer will not be affected if the power cut is short and if the freezer is full. Should the food begin to thaw, it must be consumed quickly and must not be re-frozen. (See ÒHits and TipsÓ)
placement of aluminium wrapping or containers in the oven.
Defrosted cooked food must never be refrozen.
In any 24 hours you can freeze up to 10 kg. of fresh food.
Place food to be frozen in the upper drawer of the freezer as this is the coldest part.
Cold accumulators
The freezer contains two cold accumulators. Place the cold accumulators in the FAST FREEZE compartment. The cold accumulators increase storage times in the event of a power cut or breakdown.
Removal of these units wll increase the capacity of the fast freezing compartment but will reduce storage times in the event of a power cut or breakdown.

Movable shelves
The walls of the refrigerator have runners so that shelves can be positioned as desired.
For better use of space, the front half-shelves can lie over the rear ones.
Positioning the door shelves
To permit storage of food packages of various sizes, the door shelves can be adjusted in height.
To do this proceed as shown in the diagram.

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.
