Before First Use
You must allow the fridge to settle for at least twenty four hours
prior to switching the power on.
It is recommended that you clean the interior of the appliance prior to
first use, using a solution of bicarbonate of soda and warm water and
then thoroughly dry the interior.
The fridge may have an odour to it at first use. This will disappear as
the appliance cools.
Please note:
The appliance will work continuously until it comes down to the
correct temperature.
It takes two to three hours for the fridge and freezer to reach
temperatures appropriate to store food.
If the appliance is switched o, you should allow five minutes
before switching it on again to prevent unnecessary damage to the
compressor.

Fridge Use
• Never put liquids in the refrigerator uncovered.
• Never put hot foods in the refrigerator. Warm food should be
allowed to cool to room temperature before being put into the
refrigerator.
• Nothing should obstruct the air inlets in the rear wall of the
refrigerator, as this will cause frost and possible condensation which
will be dicult to remove.
• Make sure food is clean and any extra water is wiped away before
putting into the fridge.
• Wrap or cover food before putting into the fridge. This will help
prevent the loss of moisture, keep food fresh and avoid unpleasant
odours.
• Sort foods prior to storing. Any foods to be used soon should be
stored at the front of the shelf to prevent deterioration caused by
the door being open for prolonged periods.
• Do not overfill the fridge. There should be sucient space between
the foods to allow the cool air to circulate.
• Thawing frozen foods in the fridge compartment will help to keep
the temperature low and save energy.
• Only open the door for as long as is necessary. Leaving the
door open for long periods will aect the temperature inside the
appliance and waste energy.
• Ensure all compartments are fully closed after use.

7
Freezer Use
•The freezer compartments are designed to store only frozen food.
•Never put hot or warm foods in the freezer, allow them to cool fully
before putting them into the freezer.
•Follow the instructions on the food packaging for storage of frozen
food. If no information is provided, foods should not be stored for
more than three months after the purchase date.
•Store food in small packages (ideally less than 2.5kg). This reduces
the freezing time and improves the quality of the food after thawing.
•Wrap food before putting into the freezer. To stop the wrapping
sticking together, ensure it is dry.
•Label the food before freezing with information including type of
food and dates of storage and expiry.
•Once food is thawed, it must not be refrozen unless it has been
completely cooked. Only defrost as much food as is required
to prevent wastage.
•Bottled or canned drinks should not be stored in the freezer
compartment as they could explode.
•Check the rating plate to confirm the maximum amount of fresh food
that can be frozen within a 24 hour period.
Do not attempt to freeze more than the maximum amount.
