This appliance is designed for domestic

use only, specifically for the storage of

edible foodstuffs.

This appliance is designed to operate in ambient

temperatures (surrounding air temperature)

between 10°C (50°F) and 32°C (90°F).

If these temperatures are exceeded i.e.,

colder or warmer, the appliance will not

operate correctly. Should the ambient

temperatures be exceeded for long periods,

the temperature in the freezer section will rise

above -18°C and food spoilage may occur.

Before Use

Remove all securing tapes.

Wash the inside of the appliance with lukewarm

water with a little bicarbonate of soda added (5ml

to 0.5 litre of water). Do not use soap or

detergent as the smell may linger. Dry the

appliance thoroughly.

To Start the Appliance

1. Allow the appliance to stand for 2 hours

after installation.

2. Plug in the appliance and switch on at the

mains supply.

3. Turn the thermostat control to the required

setting. A midway setting is usually suitable

for normal operation (see thermostat control).

4. Leave the appliance for approximately 4 hours

for the correct temperature to be reached

before placing food inside.

Thermostat Control

The thermostat control is situated in the top panel

and is marked from 1 - 6, the higher the number

the colder the setting. The thermostat control

regulates the temperature both within the fridge

and freezer compartments.

1 (Cold)

6 (Coldest)

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.

Do not allow children to tamper with the

controls or play with the product.

USING THE APPLIANCE

Do not use detergents, abrasive

powders, highly perfumed cleaning

products, wax polishes or products

containing alcohol.

Indicator Light

The green indicator light is situated in the control

panel.

When the appliance is switched on at the mains

the green indicator light will glow and continue to

glow until the appliance is switched off at the

mains.

Your appliance has been designed to operate in

room temperatures of 10°C to 32°C.

By use of an air circulation slider control situated

at the rear of the fridge compartment the amount

of cold air circulated through the fridge

compartment can be varied.

In room temperatures of between 10°C and 16°C,

should you find your fridge temperatures too cold,

reposition the slider control to the "cold" position.

NB. Positioning the slider control to the "cold"

position does not stop the flow of cold air, only

restrict it.

At room temperatures above 16°C the slider

control can be adjusted between "cold" and

"coldest" to increase the amount of cold air

circulating through the fridge compartment.

Maximum circulation will be achieved with the

slider control set at "coldest".

Any further fridge temperature adjustment should

be carried out by using the thermostat control

(see section headed "Thermostat Control").

Larder Compartment

Storage Guide

Adjustable shelves

Adjustment of the door shelves can be made to

accommodate varying heights of bottles and other

containers. Gently ease the shelf in the directions

shown.

Store light items such as small cartons and jars

on the shelves provided in the door. The bottle

shelf can be used for the storage of heavier

bottles.

The larder compartment is fitted with shelving

which are adjusted for the storage of different

sized articles.

If the door cannot be opened further than 90°

remove the shelves by tilting the shelf downwards

and pulling outwards.

The correct temperature for safe storage of fresh food inside is 0°C to 5°C (32°F to 41°F). The warmest

part of the fridge compartment is at the top of the cabinet and the coolest at the bottom.

The Freezer Compartment

The symbol means that your freezer will

store frozen food at -18°C (-0.4°F) or colder

allowing for long term frozen food storage and

freezing of fresh food. The freezer temperature is

controlled automatically by the thermostat

situated in the control panel.

Due to the different installations, methods of

usage and weather conditions, adjustments to the

temperature settings may be required.

These are best assessed against a

temperature reading on a thermometer

buried in the frozen food. The reading

must be taken quickly as the thermometer

temperature will rise rapidly after removal.

Frozen Food Storage

The appliance has the following net storage

volume: 80 litres (2.8 cuft)

25.6 kg (56.4 lb)†

†This is a standard measurement and the

actual capacity depends upon the density

and sizes of the food. The above figures are

based on an average density of 0.32kg per

litre (20 lb per cuft).

Pre packed commercially frozen food should be

stored in accordance with the manufacturer's

instructions for a 4 star frozen food compartment

and should be put in the freezer as soon as

possible after purchase. Your freezer provides for

long term storage which generally means up to 3

months but the length of the time can vary and it

is important to follow the recommended times

shown on packets of commercially frozen food.

Do not place sealed containers or

carbonated liquids such as fizzy drinks

into the freezer as it creates pressure

on the container which may cause it to

explode resulting to damage to the

freezer.

Ice cubes and ice lollies should not be

consumed immediately after removal

from the freezer as it may result in low

temperature skin abrasions.

Manufacturers storage times should be

adhered to.

Freezing Fresh Foods

The maximum quantity of food you can freeze in

24 hours is 6kg. Place the fresh food in the

bottom two baskets. Food may need rearranging

to achieve this.

Frozen food should not be refrozen

once it has thawed out.

Do not remove items from the freezer if

your hands are damp/wet, as this could

cause skin abrasions or 'frost/freezer

burns'.

Hints and Tips

Any opened packets of frozen food,

should be rewrapped in airtight materials

to prevent surface evaporation which

cause s drying or 'freezer burn'.

Frozen food which is allowed to thaw

accidentally should either be used

immediately or thrown away. Alternatively

if the food is uncooked and has not been

completely defrosted it can be cooked and

then refrozen.

Aim to check dates on packets and rotate

food regularly. Although storage longer

than recommended is not harmful, flavours

and textures begin to change.

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.

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.

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.

Ensure that food is placed in the freezer that

is dated and labelled and used in date order

to ensure that food is consumed at its best.

Remove suspect food from your refrigerator

and clean, refer to cleaning and maintenance.

Energy Saving Advice

Do not install the cabinet close to sources of

heat, such as a cooker, dishwasher 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 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 work of the refrigeration unit.

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.

It is advisable to periodically clean the

refrigeration system at the back of the

appliance with a duster or vacuum cleaner.

In the Event of a Power Failure

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 it's condition.

The following guidelines should assist you:

Ice Cream: Once thawed should be discarded.

Fruit and Vegetables: If soft should be cooked

and used up.

Bread and Cakes: Can be refrozen without

danger.

Shellfish: 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.

Chicken: Should be cooked and re-frozen as a

fresh dish.
