T
It should be located in a dry atmosphere, out of direct  
sunlight and away from extreme temperature e.g. not  
next to a boiler or radiator, or in a very cold room e.g. an  
outhouse . If these temperatures are exceeded i.e. colder  
or warmer, then the appliance may not operate correctly.  
Ecological hints  
To save energy and help protect the environment, we  
recommend that you follow these hints.  
Do not install the appliance close to sources of heat such  
as a boiler or radiator.  
Important  
It must be possible to disconnect the appliance from the  
mains power supply; the plugs must therefore be easily  
accessible after installation.  
Locate the appliance in a well-ventilated room and make  
sure that any air openings of the appliance are not  
obstructed.

into the freezer compartment.  
Food, which is to be frozen (when cool), should be placed  
in the fridge compartment before being transferred to  
the freezer.  
Try to avoid keeping 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.

Fresh food refrigeration  
Before use  
Remove all securing tapes.Wash inside the appliance  
with lukewarm water and bicarbonate of soda (5 ml  
to 0.5 litre of water).  
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 use soap or detergent as the smell  
may linger. Dry thoroughly.  
Do not cover the shelves with any protective  
material, such as paper, cardboard or plastic, which  
may obstruct the air circulation through them.  
Temperature display  
The temperature display can indicate several pieces  
of information.  
To help you use your refrigerator correctly, here are  
some more useful hints:  
Raw meat (beef, pork, lamb & poultry): wrap in  
polythene bags and place on top of the salad drawer.  
During normal operation, the temperature currently  
present in the fridge (ACTUAL temperature) is  
displayed.  
Meat can only be stored safely in this way for  
one or two days at the most.  
When the temperature is being adjusted a flashing  
display indicates the fridge temperature currently  
set (DESIRED temperature).  
Fruit & vegetables: these should be thoroughly  
cleaned and placed in the bottom salad drawer.  
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.  
Quick cool

Using the freezer  
Before use  
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 cooked  
from frozen; in this case cooking will take longer.  
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.  
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  
uncooked and has not been completely defrosted it  
can be cooked and then refrozen.  
Freezing fresh food  
The 4-star compartment is suitable for the long  
term storage of commercially frozen food and for  
freezing fresh food.  
Meat, fish and fruit should be thawed in the  
refrigerator compartment and small pieces of meat  
can even be cooked while still frozen, but you must  
ensure that it is thoroughly cooked through.  
To freeze fresh foods it is not necessary to move  
the thermostat knob from the normal setting. Push  
the quick freeze switch at least 3 hours before  
loading food.  
Vegetables should be directly immersed in boiling  
water; ready-cooked dishes can be placed directly in  
the oven in their aluminium wrapping.  
In any 24 hours you can freeze up to 10 kg.of fresh food.  
Place the food to be frozen in drawer 4 as indicated  
in the diagram on page 5, as this is the coldest part.  
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.  
To guarantee a good operation of the appliance during  
normal use, the drawers should not be removed.  
Frozen food storage  
Defrosted cooked food must never be  
refrozen.  
When first starting-up or after a period out of use,  
before putting the the frozen food products in the  
compartment let the appliance run for at least two  
hours on the coldest setting, then turn the  
thermostat knob to the normal operating position.  
How to make ice cubes  
The appliance is provided with a tray for making ice  
cubes.  
Do not exceed the storage period indicated by the  
manufacturer.  
Fill the tray(s) 3/4 full to give the ice space to  
expand and place them in the freezer compartment.  
Finally, do not open the door frequently or leave it  
open longer than is absolutely necessary.  
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.  
Warning  
Do not put carbonated liquids, (fizzy drinks etc.), in  
the freezer compartment.  
Cold accumulators  
Two cold accumulators are supplied in the freezer;  
these increase the length of time the food will keep  
in the event of a power failure or breakdown.  
Ice lollies, if consumed immediately after removal from  
the freezer, can cause low temperature skin burns.  
Do not remove items from the freezer if your hands  
are damp/wet, as this could cause skin abrasions or  
frost/freezer burns.  
They must be placed in the top drawer.  
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 quickly and  
must not be re-frozen.

Hints and tips  
Food storage  
In the event of a power failure  
To obtain the best results from your appliance,  
neither hot foods nor liquids which may  
evaporate, should be placed in the larder  
compartment.  
If there is a power failure during the storage of  
frozen foods, keep the door closed. If the  
temperature within your freezer should rise do not  
refreeze the food without checking its condition.  
The following guidelines should assist you.  
Keep the time between buying chilled food and  
placing it in your fridge as short as possible.  
Ice Cream:  
Once thawed should be discarded.  
Fruit andVegetables:  
If soft should be cooked and used up.  
Bread and Cakes:  
Can be refrozen without danger.  
Shellfish:  
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.  
Should be refrigerated and used up quickly.  
Cooked Dishes:  
i.e. casseroles, should be refrigerated and used up.  
Large Pieces of Meat:  
Can be re-frozen providing there are ice crystals  
remaining within them.  
Small Joints:  
Should be cooked and then re-frozen as cooked  
dishes.  
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-  
reating before freezing.  
Chicken:  
Should be cooked and re-frozen as a fresh dish.  
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 make sure that the air openings of the  
cabinet are not obstructed.  
Avoid unnecessary frosting in the cabinet by  
packing all foodstuffs into airtight packages  
before placing them in the freezer.  
Always leave warm food to cool down to room  
temperature before placing in the freezer.  
Food which is to be frozen (when cool) should  
be placed in the fridge before being transferred  
to the freezer.  
Try to avoid keeping 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.

Maintenance and cleaning  
Defrosting  
Freezer  
Your appliance is frost free, which means there is no  
need to manually defrost your appliance as this will  
be carried out automatically.  
Refrigerator  
The refrigerator automatically defrosts every time  
the compressor stops.The water is discharged, via  
the pipe, into a tray located at the back of the  
appliance above the compressor, where it  
evaporates.  
D037  
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 drawer. Use the defrost cleaner provided  
which you will find already inserted into the  
discharge hole.  
Remember to wash the defrost cleaner in hot soapy  
water at regular intervals. Dry throughly before  
replacing.
