Operation
Before use
Meat can only be stored safely in this way for one
or two days at the most.
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.
Fruit & vegetables: these should be thoroughly
cleaned and placed in the bottom salad bin.
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.
Setting the temperature
Milk bottles: these should have a cap and should be
stored in the bottle rack on the door.
The temperature inside the refrigerator is regulated
by a thermostat control knob with 6 temperature
positions and one «OFF» (O) position.
Position 1 = minimum coldness
Position 6 = maximum coldness
Turn the thermostat control knob to the required
position.
The walls of the refrigerator are equipped with
runners so that shelves can be positioned as
desired.
An intermediate position is usually the most suitable,
although the temperature will be affected by:
•
Room temperature
• How often the door is opened
• How much food is stored
• Position of the appliance
In determining the correct temperature control setting
all these factors have to be considered and some
experimentation may be necessary.
When altering the temperature setting, allow 24
hours for the temperature to stablise before making
further changes.
D302
Important
The door shelves
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.
To permit storage of food packages of various sizes,
the central door shelf can be adjusted in height.
To do this proceed as in the figure.
If you wish to return to a lower temperature,
turn the thermostat knob to a higher number,
however you should turn the setting lower
occasionally to allow automatic defrosting.
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.
The top shelf lid can be removed for easier cleaning.
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 & chicken or poultry):
wrap in polythene bags and place on top of the salad
bin.

Thawing
The
-star compartment
Food can be thawed in a number of ways, depending
on the type of food and the size of the packs.
Meat, fish and fruit should be thawed in the
refrigeration 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.
This compartment is suitable for freezing fresh food,
for the storage of commercially frozen food and for
ice cube making.
Freezing fresh food
To freeze fresh foods it is not necessary to change
the setting of the thermostat knob.
However, for a quicker freezing operation, turn the
thermostat knob to the coldest setting; but remember
that, in this condition, the refrigerator compartment
temperature might drop below 0°C. If this occurs
reset thermostat knob to a warmer setting.
Only freeze top quality, fresh and thoroughly cleaned
foodstuffs.
Do not allow fresh food to touch food which is
already frozen.
During the freezing process, ensure that the freezer
compartment door remains closed.
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 in the oven.
Making ice cubes
The appliance is provided with a plastic ice cube tray.
Fill the tray 3/4 full to allow the ice to expand and
place it in the
-star compartment. To turn out
the ice cubes simply give the tray a slight twist to
release the cubes.
Frozen food storage
Never try to free an ice tray that is frozen to the
-star compartment using a sharp or
pointed object.
Storing ready-frozen foods is quite straightforward.
The packs can be placed beside each other or on top
of each other.
Important
You are strongly advised to place ready-frozen food
in the compartment as quickly as possible after
purchase and we therefore recommend that you buy
them last. Also ensure that the external packaging is
intact.
Packaging which is swollen or has traces of refrozen
water droplets on the pack could indicate that the
product has not been kept at a suitable temperature
and that it may have lost its original quality.
Partially thawed food must not be refrozen, it must
be consumed within 24 hours.
Do not consume ice-lollies which have just
come out of the
-star compartment.
Their extremely low temperature can cause
frost burns. Do not remove items from the
-star compartment if your hands are
damp/wet, as this could cause skin abrasions
or "frost/freezer burns".
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.
Never exceed the storage times indicated.
Do not open the
-star compartment door too
often and do not leave open longer than necessary.
When the compressor is on, the refrigerant is being
pumped round, and you will hear a whirring sound or
pulsating noise from the compressor.
Important
In the event of a power cut do not open the
A thermostat controls the compressor, and you will
hear a faint ‘click’ when the thermostat cuts in and
out.
door. The food in the
-star
compartment will not be affected if the power
cut is short and if the compartment is full.
Should the food begin to thaw, it must be
consumed quickly and must not be re-frozen.

Health and Safety Guidelines
Because of consumer demand, preservatives have been removed from many pre-prepared foods.
This together with the changes in shopping habits to a once-a-week shop, mean that safe handling and
storage of food is even more important than ever.
The following tips should help you to ensure that
the food in your home is in as perfect condition
as possible.
• Do not store food uncovered.
• Remove suspect food from your refrigerator and
clean the interior (see “Maintenance and
Cleaning”).
• Keep the time between buying chilled food and
placing it in your fridge as short as possible. Tests
showed that the temperature of 1 litre of orange
juice rose to 22°C in an hour between the
supermarket and home. It then took 11 hours to get
down to 7°C in the refrigerator.
• Never allow spillages to dry and harden.
• Store eggs in the egg rack provided in the
refrigerator door. Discard any broken or chipped
eggs.
• Regularly check the refrigerator door seal to
ensure that it is clean and free from debris.
• Keep the refrigerator door closed as much as
possible.
• Always wash your hands with soapy water and dry
them with a clean towel before handling food.
• Do not push food together too much, try to allow air
to circulate around each item.
• Keep work surfaces clean and avoid cross
contamination by not using the same work surface
or knife, without washing them thoroughly in
between.
• Cool cooked food as quickly as possible but do
NOT place in the refrigerator until cool. (Leave food
in a cool place in order that it can then be placed in
the refrigerator as soon as possible).
• Do NOT mix raw and cooked meat, they must be in
separate containers. Take care not to let the meat
juices drip onto other food. If the meat does drip,
remove everything and clean thoroughly.

Defrosting
The refrigerator automatically defrosts every time the
compressor stops. The water is discharged, via the
pipe, into a tray located below the appliance, where it
evaporates.
The freezer compartment, however, will become
progressively covered with frost. This should be
removed with the special plastic scraper provided,
whenever the thickness of the frost exceeds 4 mm.
During this operation it is not necessary to switch off
the power supply or to remove the foodstuffs.
Important
To avoid defrost water overflowing into the
fridge, periodically clean the water discharge
hole in the centre of the V shaped drip
collector at the back of the refrigerator
compartment behind the fruit and vegetable
drawers. Use the special cleaner provided
which you will find already inserted into the
discharge hole.
Never use sharp metal tools to scrape off
frost from the evaporator as you could
damage it.
Do not use a mechanical device or any artificial
means to speed up the thawing process other than
those recommended by the manufacturer.
However, when the ice becomes very thick on the
inner liner, complete defrosting should be carried out
as follows:
1. pull out the plug from the wall socket or turn the
thermostat knob to the «O» setting;
2. remove any stored food, wrap it in several layers
of newspaper and put it in a cool place;
3. leave the door open, place a basin on the top shelf
of the refrigerator compartment, under the drain
hole, remove the plug as shown in the figure;
D037
PR151
4. when defrosting is completed, dry the interior
thoroughly and refit the plug.
Keep the scraper for future use; turn the thermostat
knob back to the required setting or replace the plug
in the power socket. After two or three hours, reload
the previously removed food into the compartment.
Important
A temperature rise of the frozen food packs,
during defrosting, may shorten their safe
storage life.

Door Reversal
Before carrying out the operations described below,
pull out the mains plug from the wall socket.
To carry out this reversal go through the following
steps:
1. Gently lay the appliance on its back with the top
held away from the floor by 5-8 cm (2-3 inches) of
packing.
2. Remove the bottom door hinge (5).
3. Remove the door (4) by opening it and pulling it
gently downwards to remove it from the top hinge
pin (2).
4. Unscrew the top hinge pin (2) from the top hinge
(1) and replace it in the opposite hole on the left
hand side.
5. Unscrew the foot at the base (6) of the appliance
and refit it on the opposite side.
6. Refit the door and the bottom hinge (5) to the left
hand side.
7. Unscrew the handle (3). Refit it on the opposite
side. The holes that are not used are to be
masked with the plastic plugs removed.
Important
After completion of the door reversal
operation, verify that the door gasket is sealing
onto 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.
When positioning the bottom hinge blade on the
reverse side, the securing screws will require a
degree of exersion when fitting.
It is therefore advisable to lubricate the screw
tips before starting this operation.
