Finally, do not open the door frequently or leave it
open longer than is absolutely necessary.
Warning
Do not put carbonated liquids, (fizzy drin s etc.), in
the freezer compartment.
Ice lollies, if consumed immediately after removal
from the freezer, can cause low temperature s in
burns.
Do not remove items from the freezer if your hands
are damp/wet, as this could cause s in abrasions or
“frost/freezer burns”.
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 coo ed
from frozen; in this case coo ing will ta e 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 uncoo ed and has
not been completely defrosted it can be coo ed and
then refrozen.
Meat, fish and fruit should be thawed in the
refrigerator compartment and small pieces of meat
can even be coo ed while still frozen, but you must
ensure that it is thoroughly coo ed through.
Vegetables should be directly immersed in boiling
water; ready-coo ed 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
placement of aluminium wrapping or containers in
the oven.
De rosted cooked ood must never be re rozen.
Freezing resh ood
The 4-star compartment is suitable for long term
storage of commercially frozen food and for freezing
fresh food.
To freeze fresh foods it is not necessary to move the
thermostat nob from the normal setting. Push the
fast freeze switch at least 3 hours before loading
food.
In any 24 hours you can freeze up to 4 g. of fresh
food.
Place the food to be frozen in the lower of the freezer
compartment as this is the coldest part.
To guarantee a good operation of the appliance
during normal use, the drawers should not be
removed.
Making ice cubes
The appliance is provided with one or more trays for
ice-cubes trays.
Fill the tray(s) 3/4 full to give the ice space to expand
and place them in the freezer compartment.
To release the ice cubes simply give the tray a slight
twist.
Do not use sharp or metallic instruments to remove
the trays from the freezer.
Important
In the event of a power cut the food in the freezer will
not be affected if the power cut is short and if the
freezer is full. Do not open the door. Should the food
begin to thaw, it must be consumed quic ly and must
not be re-frozen .

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 or to the fixed freezer shelves.
• 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 ’clic ’ when the thermostat cuts in
and out.
Fresh ood re rigeration
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, por , lamb & wild fowl): wrap in
polythene bags and place on top of the salad
crispers.
Meat can only be stored sa ely in this way or
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.
Mil bottles: these should have a cap and should be
stored in the bottle rac on the door.
Use o the re rigerator
The thermostat is valid for both freezer and
refrigerator compartments.
Setting the temperature
Position ●= minimum coldness
Position ●= maximum coldness
Turn the thermostat dial to the required position.
Insert a coin to turn the thermostat dial to the
required position.
The thermostat setting can vary as the temperature
inside the refrigeration compartment depends on the
following factors:
– room temperature
– how often the door is opened
– how much food is stored
– position of the appliance

Food Storage
• To obtain the best results from your appliance,
neither hot foods nor liquids which may
evaporate, should be placed in the larder
compartment.
• Keep the time between buying chilled food and
placing it in your fridge as short as possible.
• Do not push food together too much, try to allow
air to circulate around each item.
• Do not store food uncovered.
• Remove suspect food from your refrigerator and
clean, refer to ‘Maintenance and Cleaning’.
• Ensure that food placed in the freezer is dated
and labelled and used in date order to ensure
that food is consumed at its best.
• Avoid buying frozen food if you cannot store it
straight away. The use of an insulated container is
advisable. When you arrive home place the frozen
food in the freezer immediately.
• The symbols on the drawers show different types of
frozen goods. The numbers indicate storage times in
months for the appropriate types of frozen goods.
Whether the upper or lower value of the indicated
storage time is valid depends on the quality of the
foods and pre-treating before freezing.
Energy Saving Advice
• Do not install the cabinet close to sources of
heat, i.e. boiler or radiator.
• Locate the appliance in a cool well ventilated
room and ma e sure that the air openings of the
cabinet are not obstructed.
• Avoid unnecessary frosting in the cabinet by
pac ing all foodstuffs into airtight pac ages
before placing them in the freezer.
• Always leave warm food to cool down to room
temperature before placing in the fridge or
freezer.
• Food which is to be frozen (when cool) should be
placed in the fridge before being transferred to
the freezer.
• Thaw frozen food in the fridge. This will ensure
safer defrosting of foods and reduce the wor of
the refrigeration unit.
• Try to avoid eeping the door open for long
periods, or opening the door too frequently as
warm air will enter the cabinet, and cause the
compressor to switch on unnecessarily often.
• Ensure there are no obstructions preventing the
door from closing properly.
In the Event o a Power Failure
If there is a power failure during the storage of frozen
foods, eep the door closed. If the temperature within
your freezer should rise do not refreeze the food
without chec ing it’s condition.
The following guidelines should assist you.
Ice Cream:
Once thawed should be discarded.
Fruit and Vegetables:
If soft should be coo ed and used up.
Bread and Cakes:
Can be refrozen without danger.
Shell ish:
Should be refrigerated and used up quic ly.
Cooked Dishes:
i.e. casseroles, should be refrigerated and used up.
Large Pieces o Meat:
Can be re-frozen providing there are ice crystals
remaining within them.
Small Joints:
Should be coo ed and then re-frozen as coo ed
dishes.
Chicken:
Should be coo ed and re-frozen as a fresh dish.
