Fresh food refrigeration
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.

6. Slide out the door from pin (G), unscrew the
latter and then screw it down into the hinge
provided on the opposite side, after having
removed the small plugs which should then be
fitted on the opposite side.
7. Refit the door and bottom hinge (1) on the

Setting the temperature
To help you use your refrigerator correctly, here are
some more useful hints:
The temperature inside the refrigerator is regulated
by a thermostat with 6 temperature positions and an
«OFF» (O) position.
Raw meat (beef, pork, lamb & wild fowl): wrap in
polythene bags and place on top of the salad
crispers.
Position 1 = minimum coldness
Meat can only be stored safely in this way for
one or two days at the most.
8. Refit the feet (3) on the opposite side.
Position 6 = maximum coldness
9. Unscrew the handle. Refit it on the opposite side
after having pierced the plugs with a punch.
Cover the holes left open with the plugs contained
in the documentation pack.
Turn the thermostat dial to the required position.
The intermediate position is usually the most
suitable (3-4).
The thermostat setting can vary as the temperature
inside the refrigeration compartment depends on the
following factors:
Attention
After completion of the door reversiing operation,
check that the door gasket adheres to 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 hairdrier.
– room temperature
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.
Milk bottles: these should have a cap and should be
stored in the bottle rack on the door.
– how often the door is opened
– how much food is stored
– position of the appliance
Important
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.

Do not cover the shelves with any protective
material, such as paper, cardboard or plastic, which
may obstruct the air circulation through them.
Printed on recycled paper
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 ’click’ when the thermostat cuts in
and out.

Movable shelves
Electrical connections
The walls of the refrigerator have runners so that
shelves can be positioned as desired.

INSTALLATION
Important
IF YOU ARE DISCARDING AN OLD APPLIANCE THAT
HAS A LOCK OR CATCH ON THE DOOR, YOU MUST
ENSURE THAT IT IS MADE UNUSABLE TO PREVENT
YOUNG CHILDREN BEING TRAPPED INSIDE.
Depending upon the position which you choose for your
appliance, you may wish to reverse the way in which
the door opens. To do this, refer to instructions on “Door
reversal”.
Please ensure that when the appliance is installed it
is easily accessible for the engineer in the event of
a breakdown.
Cool Check Guide
Important
The guide consists of a temperature sensitive strip
sealed in a shelf trim.
It must be possible to disconnect the appliance from
the mains power supply; the plug must therefore be
easily accessible after installation.
When the fridge is operating at the safe temperature
to store food the guide will appear black. If the
temperature rises above this level the guide will
show the words TOO WARM.
Positioning of the Cool Check
The shelf with the cool check temperature guide
must be placed in the fridge according to the
instructions located on the fridge wall and always
ensure the guide is at the front.
If the Cool Check shows TOO WARM
Positioning
In certain conditions the temperature guide may
show TOO WARM if:
This appliance should only be installed at a location
where the ambient temperature corresponds to the
climate classification indicated on the rating plate, which
is located at the left on the inside of the appliance.
+16°C to + 32°C
ST
+18°C to + 38°C
T
+18°C to + 43°C
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, where the temperatures may fall below 10°C
(50°F). If these temperatures are exceeded i.e. colder or
warmer, then the appliance may not operate correctly.
You should also ensure that air can circulate freely
around the back and the top of the cabinet. There must
also be at least 100 mm (4”) distance between the top of
the cabinet and any overhanging kitchen furniture (A).
Ideally, the appliance should not be positioned beneath
overhanging furniture (B).
There should also be a gap of 25 mm either side of the
appliance. Do not obstruct the space underneath. The
back of the cabinet may be placed close to the wall but
must not touch it. DO NOT install in places with
restricted ventilation.
Adjust the level of the appliance by screwing out the
adjustable foot, or feet, at the bottom of the cabinet
using your fingers.
