Before first use

You must allow the fridge to settle for at
least twenty-four hours prior to
switching the power on.
It is recommended that you clean the
interior of the appliance prior to first use,
using a solution of bicarbonate of soda
and warm water and then thoroughly
drying the interior.
Please note:
The appliance will start on temperature
setting 3 and work continuously until it
comes down to the correct temperature.
If the appliance is switched off, you
should allow five minutes before
switching it on again to prevent
unnecessary damage to the compressor.
Fridge use
• Never put liquids in the refrigerator
uncovered.
• Never put hot foods in the refrigerator.
Warm food should be allowed to cool to
room temperature before being put into
the refrigerator.
• Nothing should rest against the rear
wall of the refrigerator, as this will cause
frost and possible condensation
problems which will be difficult to
remove.
• Make sure food is clean and any extra
water is wiped away before putting into
the fridge.
• Do not overfill the fridge. There should
be sufficient space between the foods to
allow the cool air to circulate.
Freezer use
• The freezer compartments are
designed to store only frozen food.
• Never put hot or warm foods in the
freezer, allow them to cool fully before
putting them into the freezer.
• Store food in small packages. This
reduces the freezing time and improves
the quality of the food after thawing.
• Once food is thawed, it must not be
refrozen. Only defrost as much food as is
required to prevent wastage.
• Bottled or canned drinks should not be
stored in the freezer compartments as
they could explode.
Drawer humidity adjustment
The crisper drawer within this appliance
features a humidity level adjustment
slider. Vegetables and similar produce
that are subject to wilting (e.g. spinach
leaves, herbs such as basil etc.) should be
kept in the crisper drawer and the
adjustment slider kept closed (fully to the
right). By keeping the adjustment slider
closed, water vapor is held in the drawer
and subsequently greens are kept crisper
and fresher for longer.
By contrast, fruits that are susceptible to
rotting should be stored in the crisper
drawer with the humidity adjustment
slider fully open (to the left). This will
allow gases, emitted by certain produce
and that accelerate the rotting process,
to exit the crisper drawer.
Storage
The fridge section is for short term food
storage. Although low temperatures can
be maintained, extended periods of food
storage is not recommended.
As the cold air circulates within the
fridge, the temperature can vary
between the different sections. As such,
foods should be stored in different
sections according to type. Section 7 is
the coldest part of the fridge.
1. Butter, cheeses etc.
2. Food in jars and bottles
3. Drinks, e.g. milk
4. Cooked food
5. Yogurts, preserves etc.
6. 75cl bottles or ready meals etc.
