accessible position, adjacent to the appliance.

Place the appliance in a dry and regularly

ventilated room.

Never place the appliance near heat emitting

devices (eg. cooker, radiator, water heater or

similar devices) and do not expose it to direct

sunlight. In such a position your appliance

will have to work harder and will cost more to

run and could be damaged by the heat.

Ensure that you provide adequate air

circulation around the appliance.

Behind, there should be at least 200cm2.

Allow a minimum 30mm between the top of

the appliance and the underside of the work

top, 25mm either side and 25mm from the

base of appliance to the floor.

The controls

Before switching on your appliance make

sure that the mains cable is not trapped

underneath or behind the appliance.

Thermostat setting

The thermostat setting will depend on the

location of the appliance, room temperature

and how often the door is opened. When

starting the appliance for the first time turn

the thermostat to the 5setting for the first

24hrs then adjust accordingly.

* The thermostat automatically regulates the

inside temperature of the refrigerator and

freezer compartment.

By turning the knob from 1.to5.,

colder temperatures can be obtained.

* The“OFF”position shows that the

thermostat is closed and no cooling is

available.

* For short term storage of food in the

freezer compartment, you can set the knob

to the 3setting.

* For long term storage of food in the

freezer compartment, you can set the knob

between the 3 and 5 position.

* Note:The ambient temperature,

temperature of the freshly stored food

and how often the door is opened,

affects the temperature in the

refrigerator and freezer compartments.

If required, change the temperature

setting.

* Ideally, when you first switch on the

appliance, you should try to run it without

any food in for 24 hours and not open the

door. If you do need to use it straight away

try not to put to much food inside.

Running in the compressor

Your appliance is operated by a compressor,

which maintains the appliance internal tem-

perature. For the first few months the com-

pressor has to work a little harder and may

result in more noise than usual.

* If the appliance is switched off or unplugged,

you must allow 5 minutes before restarting in

order not to damage the compressor.

Refrigerator RSB20

* The freezer of the refrigerator can cool up

to -12˚C.

RLB20 and RSB20 thermostat box

Freezers RZB20

Thermostat setting

The freezer thermostat automatically

regulates the inside temperature of the

compartments. By turning the knob from

position 1 to 3, colder temperatures can be

obtained.The position“O” (off position)

shows that the thermostat is closed and no

cooling will be available.

Freezer thermostat setting

The temperature in your freezer should be

maintained at -18˚C or colder. The ambient

temperature of the freshly stored food

and how often the door is opened,

affects the temperature in the freezer. If

required, change the temperature control

setting at the rear of the freezer (setting 3 is

the coldest.).

Storing food

Making the best use of your

Appliance

To ensure that your appliance operates as

efficiently as possible:

* Follow packaging“best by/use by”

instructions or your suppliers advice on

a suitable maximum storage time.

* Keep foods covered to retain moisture

and prevent flavour/odour

transference. Plastic bags, aluminium

foil, plastic stretch wrap and containers

with lids are ideal.

* Select chilled and frozen food last

when shopping, transport in a ‘coolbag’

and place in appliance as soon as

possible after arriving home.

* Avoid opening the doors unnecessarily

or for longer than needed.

* Allow hot or warm food to cool down

in covered containers before placing in

appliance, as placing hot food in the

appliance reduces efficiency.

Warning: Do not use to store poisonous,

flammable or dangerous substances,

your appliance has been designed for the

storage of edible foodstuffs only.

Storing food in a freezer

(RZB20)

* Freeze and store either fresh food or

long term commercially frozen foods.

* Generally speaking long term storage

means up to 3 months but this can

vary, so always follow your supplier’s

recommendations otherwise refer to

the pictorial guide on the door liner

(see below).

* Place frozen food in the freezer

compartment as soon as possible after

buying it.

* Liquid-filled bottles or sealed fizzy

drinks must not be stored in freezer, as

they may burst.

* Lollipops and water ices should not be

given to children directly from the

freezer.The low temperature may

cause ‘freezer burns’ on their lips.

* Store ice cream towards the top front

of the freezer and remove from freezer

15-30 minutes before serving.

* Ensure food is labelled and dated

before placing in freezer.

* Once thawed, food should be cooked

and eaten within 24 hours or cooked

and refrozen.

* Fully defrost your freezer when the ice

is between 3-5mm thick.

Note: A thick layer of ice will increase the

running costs of your appliance.

Storing Food in a Fridge

(RSB20 and RLB20)

* Pack and store cooked and fresh food

separately.

* Wrap raw or defrosting meat and

poultry in polythene or foil and store

below cooked foods and dairy

products to avoid contamination of

dripping food juices.

* Wrap cheese in greaseproof paper and

place in an airtight polythene bag.

Bring to room temperature before

consuming.

* Empty left over canned food into a

covered storage containers before

placing in fridge.

* Position food to allow cold air to

circulate freely, ensuring nothing

comes into contact with the cooling

plate at the back of the appliance.
