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

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

During prolonged periods of abnormally hot weather,

if the thermostat is set on too high a number, the

cooling system may operate continuously and the

fridge cooling plate may not defrost. Turning the

knob to a lower number will cause the automatic

defrosting to resume.

Normal Operating Sounds

¥ You may hear faint gurgling or bubbling sounds

when the refrigerant is pumped through the coils

or tubing at the rear, to the cooling

plate/evaporator.

¥ When the compressor is on, the refrigerant is

being pumped round, and you will hear a whirring

sound or pulsating noise from the compressor.

¥ A thermostat controls the compressor, and you

will hear a faint ÕclickÕ when the thermostat cuts in

and out.

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 or chicken):

wrap in polythene bags and place on the glass shelf

above 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 bottom 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.

Door reversal

1. Disconnect from the electricity supply.

2. Remove all loose items, including food, store

food in a cool place.

3. Gently lay the fridge on its back with the top held

away from the floor by 5-8 cm (2-3 inches) of

packing;

4. Remove the feet (3).

5. Remove bottom hinge (1).

7. Slide out the door from pin (G), unscrew the latter

and then screw it down into the hinge provided on

the opposite side, after having removed the small

plugs which should then be fitted on the opposite

side.

8. Refit the door and bottom hinge (1) on the

opposite side.

9. Refit the feet (3) on the opposite side.

10.Unscrew the handle. Refit it on the opposite side

after having pierced the plugs with a punch.

Cover the holes left open with the plugs

contained in the documentation pack.

Attention

After completion of the door reversing operation,

check that the door gasket adheres to the cabinet. If

the ambient temperature is cold (i.e. in Winter), the

gasket may not fit perfectly to the cabinet. In that

case, wait for the natural fitting of the gasket or

accelerate this process by heating up the part

involved with a normal hairdryer on a low setting.
