Making ice cubes

The appliance is provided with one or more trays for

ice-cubes trays.

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.

Do not use sharp or metallic instruments to remove

the trays from the freezer.

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.

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.

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.

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.

Frozen food storage

When first starting-up or after a period of use, before

putting the products in the compartment let the

appliance run for at least two hours on the coldest

setting, then turn the thermostat knob to the normal

opertion position.

Do not exceed the storage period indicated by the

manufacturer.

Finally, do not open the door frequently or leave it

open longer than is absolutely necessary.

Warning

Do not put carbonated liquids, (fizzy drinks etc.), in

the freezer compartment.

Ice lollies, if consumed immediately after removal

from the freezer, can cause low temperature skin

burns.

Do not remove items from the freezer if your hands

are damp/wet, as this could cause skin abrasions or

“frost/freezer burns”.

Important

In the event of a power cut the food in the freezer will

not be affected if the power cut is short and if the

freezer is full. Do not open the door. Should the food

begin to thaw, it must be consumed quickly and must

not be re-frozen .

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 cover the shelves with any protective

material, such as paper, cardboard or plastic, which

may obstruct the air circulation through them.

To help you use your refrigerator correctly, here are

some more useful hints:

Raw meat (beef, pork, lamb & wild fowl): wrap in

polythene bags and place on top of the salad

crispers.

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.

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.

Cold accumulators

The freezer contains two cold accumulators which

can be found in one of the freezer drawers. Place the

cold accumulators in the FAST FREEZE

compartment. The cold accumulators increase

storage times in the event of a power cut or

breakdown.

Removal of these units will increase the capacity of

the fast freezing compartment but will reduce

storage times in the event of a power cut or

breakdown.

Rear spacers

In the bag with the documentation, there are two

spacers which must be fitted as shown in the figure.

Slacken the screws and insert the spacer under the

screw head, then re-tighten the screws.

Door reversal directions

1. Disconnect from the electricity supply.

2. Gently lay the fridge/freezer on its back with the

top held away from the floor by 5-8 cm (2-3

inches) of packing;

3. Remove the ventilation grill (D).

4. remove the bottom hinge (E) by unscrewing its

fixing screws;

5. Remove the freezer door by releasing it from the

middle hinge (H).

6. Unscrew the middle hinge.

7. Remove the fridge door by releasing it from the

top hinge pin (G).

8. Remove the pin then mount these on the side,

after having removed the small plugs which

should then be fitted on the opposite side.

9. Refit the fridge door and replace the middle hinge

to the left hand side.

10.reassemble the door;

11.using a 10 mm spanner, unscrew the hinge pin

(E) and reassemble it on the opposite side of the

hinge;

12.reassemble the lower hinge (E) on the opposite

side, using the screws previously removed. Slide

the hole cover (F) out of the ventilation grille (D)

by pushing it in the direction of the arrow and

reassemble it on the opposite side;

13.refit the ventilation grille (D), clipping it into place;

14.Unscrew the handles. Refit them 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.

The doors can be aligned by adjusting the middle

hinge.

The middle hinge can be adjusted horizontally, after

having slackened the two screws with a screwdriver.

Important

After completion of the door reversing 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 hairdryer on a low setting.
