material, such as paper, cardboard or plastic, which
may obstruct the air circulation.
To help you use your refri erator correctly, here are
some more useful hints:
Raw meat (beef, pork, lamb & chicken or poultry):
wrap in polythene ba s and place on the lass shelf
above the salad drawers.
Meat can only be stored sa ely in this way or
one or two days at the most.
Fruit & ve etables: these should be thorou hly
cleaned and placed in the salad drawers.
Butter & cheese: these should be placed in special
airti ht containers or wrapped in aluminium foil or
polythene ba s 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 obtain the best results from the appliance
neither hot foods nor liquids which may
evaporate, should be placed in the larder
compartment.
• Keep the time between buyin chilled food and
placin it in your refri erator as short as possible.
• Do not push food to ether too much, try to allow
air to circulate around each item.
• Do not store food uncovered.

warm air will enter the cabinet and cause the
compressor to switch on unnecessarily often.
• Ensure there are no obstructions preventin the
door from closin properly.
• It is advisable to peridocally clean the
refri eration system at the back of the appliance
with a duster or vacuum cleaner.
HINTS AND TIPS
Bottle holder
Place the bottles (with the openin facin front) in

MAINTENANCE AND CLEANING
External cleaning
An accumulation of dust will affect the performance
of the appliance and cause excessive electricity
consumption.
Once or twice a year dust the condenser (black rill)
and the compressor at the back of the appliance,
with a brush or vacuum cleaner, see fi ure.
Before any maintenance or cleanin work is carried
out, DISCONNECT the appliance from the

disconnect from the electricity supply, empty all
foods and clean the appliance, leavin the doors ajar

De rosting
The refri erator automatically defrosts every time the
compressor stops. The water is dischar ed, via the
pipe, into a tray located at the back of the appliance
above the compressor, where it evaporates.
Important
To avoid defrost water overflowin into the frid e,
periodically clean the water dischar e hole in the
centre of the V shaped drip collector at the back of
the refri erator compartment behind the salad
crispers. Use the defrost cleaner provided which you

Setting the temperature
The temperature within the appliance is controlled by
the thermostat control knob situated at the top of the
appliance.
To operate the appliance proceed as follows:
Turn the thermostat control beyond the «■» position.
Position min = minimum coldness
Position max = maximum coldness
Turn the thermostat dial to the required position.
The intermediate position is usually the most
suitable.
The thermostat control re ulates the temperature
both within the frid e and the freezer compartment.
The thermostat settin can vary as the temperature
inside the appliance depends on the followin
factors:
– room temperature
– how often the door is opened
– how much food is stored
– position of the appliance
Shopping Function
If you need to insert a lar e amount of warm food, for

food or evaporatin liquids in the refri erator; cover
or wrap the food, particularly if it has a stron 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 refri erator correctly, here are
some more useful hints:
Raw meat (beef, pork, lamb & chicken or poultry):
wrap in polythene ba s and place on the lass shelf
above the salad drawers.
Meat can only be stored sa ely in this way or
one or two days at the most.
Fruit & ve etables: these should be thorou hly
cleaned and placed in the salad drawers.
Butter & cheese: these should be placed in special
airti ht containers or wrapped in aluminium foil or
polythene ba s 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.
Normal Operating Sounds
• You may hear faint ur lin or bubblin sounds
when the refri erant is pumped throu h the coils
or tubin at the rear, to the coolin
plate/evaporator.
