OPERATION
Before using
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.
Setting the temperature
A
The temperature inside the refrigerator is regulated
by a thermostat with 6 temperature positions and an
“OFF” (O) position.
D710
A - Low Room Temperature Switch
Position 1 = minimum coldness
Position 6 = maximum coldness
Turn the thermostat dial to the required position.
The freezer compartment
The intermediate position is usually the most
suitable (3-4).
The four-star freezer compartment is suitable for
storage of commercially frozen food and for freezing
fresh foods.
The thermostat setting can vary as the temperature
inside the refrigeration compartment depends on the
following factors:
Freezing fresh food
– room temperature
It is not necessary to adjust the thermostat setting
when freezing fresh food. Depress the ambient
switch at least 24 hours before loading food to be
frozen.
– how often the door is opened
– how much food is stored
– position of the appliance
In any 24 hours you can freeze up to 6 kg. of fresh
food.
Important
Place food to be frozen in the bottom drawer of the
freezer as this is the coldest part.
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.
Important
In the event of a power cut do not open the door.
The food in the freezer will not be affected if the
power cut is short and if the freezer is full. Should
the food begin to thaw, it must be consumed quickly
and must not be re-frozen .
Low Room Temperature Switch
To ensure that the appliance is working efficiently
when the room temperature drops below 16°C, the
switch mounted next to the thermostat control should
be switched on.
No damage can be caused by leaving the switch in
this position for any period of time (see page 11 Low
ambient operation). However should the temperature
rise above 16°C remember to turn the switch off
again.
5
Frozen food storage
Making ice cubes
The appliance is provided with one or more trays for
ice-cubes trays.
When first starting-up or after a period of use, before
putting the products in the freezer compartment let
the appliance run for at least two hours on the
coldest setting, then turn the thermostat knob to the
normal opertion position.
Fill the tray(s) 3/4 full to give the ice space to expand
and place them in the freezer compartment.
To release the ice cubes simply give the tray a slight
twist.
To obtain the best performance from this appliance,
you should:
Do not use sharp or metallic instruments to remove
the trays from the freezer.
if large quantities of food are to be stored, remove all
drawers and baskets from appliance and place food
on cooling shelves.
Pay careful attention not to exceed load limit stated
on the side of the upper section (where applicable).
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.
Do not exceed the storage period indicated by the
manufacturer.
Do not cover the shelves with any protective
material, such as paper, cardboard or plastic, which
may obstruct the air circulation through them.
Finally, do not open the door frequently or leave it
open longer than is absolutely necessary.
To help you use your refrigerator correctly, here are
some more useful hints:
Important
Raw meat (beef, pork, lamb & wild fowl): wrap in
polythene bags and place on top of the salad
crispers.
Do not put carbonated liquids, (fizzy drinks etc.), in
the freezer compartment.
Ice Iollies, if consumed immediately after removal
from the freezer, can cause low temperature skin
burns.
Meat can only be stored safely in this way for
one or two days at the most.
Fruit & vegetables: these should be thoroughly
cleaned and placed in the bottom salad crispers.
Do not remove items from the freezer if your hands
are damp/wet, as this could cause skin abrasions or
“frost/freezer burns”.
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.
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.
Milk bottles: these should have a cap and should be
stored in the bottle rack on the door.
Normal Operating Sounds
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.
•
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.
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.
A thermostat controls the compressor, and you
will hear a faint ’click’ when the thermostat cuts in
and out.
Vegetables should be directly immersed in boiling
water; ready-cooked dishes can be placed directly in
the oven in their aluminium wrapping.
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.
Defrosted cooked food must never be refrozen.
6
Movable shelves
The walls of the refrigerator have runners so that
shelves can be positioned as desired.
D040
Positioning the door shelves
To permit storage of food packages of various sizes,
the door shelves can be adjusted in height.
To do this proceed as shown in the diagram:
Gradually pull the shelf in the direction of the arrows
until it comes free, then reposition as required.

HEALTH AND SAFETY GUIDELINES
•
The size of each pack should be small enough to
ensure that it is used in one go . Small packs
freeze more quickly and uniformly and give better
results.
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.
•
•
•
Frozen food, once thawed, must not be refrozen.
Lean food keeps better and longer than fatty
food, salt reduces the storage time.
The following tips should help you to ensure that
the food in your home is in as perfect condition
as possible.
Wrap the food in polythene or aluminium freezing
bags or foil so that they adhere to the food and
provide an airtight seal.
•
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.
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.
Never exceed the storage times indicated.
•
•
•
Keep the refrigerator door closed as much as
possible.
•
•
Never place hot food, bottles or cans of fizzy
drink in the freezer as they may explode.
Containers with a lid must not be filled to the
brim.
Do not push food together too much, try to allow
air to circulate around each item.
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
put in the refrigerator as soon as possible).
Do not open the door or place extra fresh food in
the freezer next to food which is already frozen
as this could cause the temperature of the frozen
food to rise and its quality and storage life to
reduce.
•
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.
•
•
Do not store food uncovered.
The best way to defrost food is to put it in the
refrigerator to thaw slowly.
•
Remove suspect food from your refrigerator and
clean (refer to “Maintenance and Cleaning).
•
•
Never allow spillages to dry and harden.
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.
•
•
It is important that food is used before its “best
before” date.
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.
Always wash your hands with soapy water and
dry them with a clean towel before handling food.
Keep work surfaces clean and avoid cross
contamination by not using the same work
surface or knife, without washing them thoroughly
in between.
•
The fresh foods to be frozen must be fresh and of
the best quality.

MAINTENANCE AND CLEANING
Before any maintenance or cleaning work is carried
out, DISCONNECT the appliance from the
ELECTRICITY supply.
Changing the light bulb
Should the interior light fail to work, first switch off
the appliance and disconnect from the electricity
supply, then replace the bulb as follows;
Internal cleaning
Clean the inside and accessories with warm water
and bicarbonate of soda (5ml to 0.5 litre of water).
Rinse and dry thoroughly.
NEVER USE DETERGENTS, ABRASIVE
POWDERS, HIGHLY PERFUMED
CLEANING PRODUCTS OR WAX
POLISHES, TO CLEAN THE INTERIOR AS
THESE WILL DAMAGE THE SURFACE AND
LEAVE A STRONG ODOUR.
D411
External cleaning
Unscrew the light cover and then pull it outward by
pressing as shown in the figure. Unscrew the bulb
and replace it with a new 15 watt bulb (available
from your nearest Service Force Centre).
Many proprietary kitchen surface cleaners
contain chemicals that can attack/damage the
plastics used in this appliance. For this reason it
is recommended that the outer casing of this
appliance is only cleaned with warm water with a
little washing-up liquid added.
Replace the light cover by sliding it into its original
position and replacing the screw.
An accumulation of dust will affect the performance
of the appliance and cause excessive electricity
consumption.
Defrosting
Refrigerator
You MUST ensure that the appliance is switched
OFF.
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.
Once or twice a year dust the condenser (black grill)
and the compressor at the back of the appliance,
with a brush or vacuum cleaner, see figure.
D037
PR259
Important
When the appliance is not in use
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.
When the appliance is not in use for long periods,
disconnect from the electricity supply, empty all
foods and clean the appliance, leaving the doors ajar
to prevent unpleasant smells.
9
Remember to wash the defrost cleaner in hot soapy
water at regular intervals. Dry throughly before
replacing.
Freezer
When the frost has reached a thickness of up to
4mm it can be removed using the ice scraper
provided with the appliance. During this operation it
is not necessary to disconnect the appliance from
the mains and remove the food. Never use metal
tools for this operation.
For complete defrosting (once or twice a year)
proceed as follows:
-
turn the thermostat dial to the «OFF» position (O)
or disconnect the appliance from the mains.
-
Remove any food from inside the freezer and
fridge, wrap it in several sheets of newspaper and
store in a cool/dry place.
-
Leave the door open and insert the ice scraper
under the channel in the centre of the lower part
of the appliance; place a low-sided container
beneath the scraper to collect the water (see fig.).
-
-
-
Clean and dry thoroughly.
D068
Replace the scraper in one of the drawers .
Reconnect the appliance to the mains or reset
the thermostat to a functioning position.
-
After letting the appliance run for at least half an
hour, replace the previously removed food into
the compartment.
Important
When defrosting the freezer, the fridge is also
controlled by the thermostat and will not be
operational during this period. A temperature rise of
the frozen food packs, during defrosting, may
shorten their safe storage life.
Attention!
In the event of a power failure causing the
temperature within your freezer to rise, do not re-
freeze the food without checking its condition.
The following guidelines should assist you.
Ice-cream: once thawed should be discarded.
Fruits & Vegetables: if soft should be cooked and
used up.
Breads & Cakes: can be re-frozen 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 still ice crystals remaining within them.
Small Joints: should be cooked and can then be re-
frozen as cooked dishes.
Chicken: should also be cooked and re-frozen as a
cooked dish.

SOMETHING NOT WORKING
Important: If you call out an engineer to a fault listed below, or to repair a fault caused by incorrect use or
installation a charge will be made, even if the appliance is under guarantee.
Before contacting your local Service Force Centre, check the following points:
Symptom
Solution
No power to the appliance
Check there is power at the socket.
Check there is not a power cut by checking the
household lights.
Check the fuse has not blown.
The light does not come on
Ensure that the bulb is correctly fitted.
Replace the bulb if it has blown.
Check the door light switch is not jammed.
The temperature in the fridge or freezer section is
too high
Check the thermostat control knob in the fridge is
turned to the correct setting relative to ambient
conditions.
Check the ambient temperature is within the
appliance’s operating limits, please refer to the
installation section in this instruction book.
Relocate the appliance if necessary.
The freezer door will not open
Has door just been opened? If so leave for a few
minutes to allow the air pressure to equalise.
The compressor runs continously
Adjust the thermostat control knob to give correct
temperature control. See “Setting the temperature”.
Check that the doors are closed.
Large quantities of food have recently been placed in
the cabinet and/or door is frequently opened.
Check that air ventilation is not obstructed.
Ensure the doors are not left open.
Excessive frost and ice has built up
Check that nothing is preventing the doors from
closing.
Is the door gasket intact and clean.
Has advised periodic defrosting been carried out.
Noise
Refer to normal operating sounds.
Water under the salad crispers
Check the drain hole is not blocked. (see
Maintenance and Cleaning).
Low room operation
During prolonged periods of low room temperatures,ie;10°C and lower, the compressor on single compressor
fridge freezer can remain inoperative during this time .
This is due to the air temperature within the refrigerator compartment being maintained at 6°C or under thus not
calling the thermostat to energise the compressor .
11
During a normal night time period of approximately 8 hours a traditional fridge freezer can normally maintain the
frozen food temperature but if the appliance is left for longer period in a low ambient temperature the freezer will
defrost .
If, after the above checks, there is still a fault, call your local Service Force Centre.
In-guarantee customers should ensure that the above checks have been made as the engineer will make a
charge if the fault is not a mechanical or electrical breakdown.
