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.

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.

The symbols 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-treating before freezing.

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.  
Please note that proof of purchase is required for any in-guarantee service calls.
