Storage Shelves  
Energy Saving Advice  
The variable shelves increase the usefulness of the  
fresh food compartment. The shelves can be  
rearranged by opening the door to 90°.  
Do not install the cabinet close to sources of  
heat, such as a cooker, dishwasher or radiator.  
Locate the appliance in a cool well ventilated  
room and make sure that the air openings of the  
cabinet are not obstructed.  
The door shelves can also be rearranged to your  
requirements.  
Always leave warm food to cool down to room  
temperature before placing in the fridge.  
Hints & Tips  
Try to avoid keeping the door open for long  
periods, or opening the door too frequently as  
warm air will enter the cabinet, and cause the  
compressor to switch on unnecessarily often.  
Food Storage  
To obtain the best results from your appliance  
neither hot foods nor liquids which may evaporate,  
should be placed in the larder compartment.  
Ensure there are no obstructions preventing the  
door from closing properly.  
Keep the time between buying chilled food and  
placing it in your fridge as short as possible.  
It is advisable to periodically clean the  
refrigeration system at the back of the appliance  
with a duster or vacuum cleaner.  
Do not push food together too much, try to allow air  
to circulate around each item.  
Do not store food uncovered.  
Remove suspect food from your refrigerator and  
clean, refer to cleaning and maintenance.  
Maintenance & Cleaning  
Before any maintenance of cleaning work is  
carried out DISCONNECT the appliance from  
the ELECTRICITY SUPPLY.  
Internal Cleaning  
Clean the inside and accessories with warm water and  
bicarbonate of soda (5 ml to 0.5 litre of water). Rinse  
and dry thoroughly.  
Do not use detergents, abrasive powders,  
highly perfumed cleaning products, wax  
polishes or cleaning products containing  
bleach or alcohol.  
Clean the drain hole of the water trough at regular  
intervals and ensure that the drain hole is clear at all  
times. If blocked carefully clear using a piece of  
flexible curtain wire inserted into the drain outlet to  
remove the blockage.  
Regularly check the door seals and wipe clean to  
ensure they are clean and free from debris.  
7
 
External Cleaning  
Wash the outer cabinet with warm soapy water.  
Do NOT use abrasive products.  
There are sharp edges on the underside of  
the product so care should be taken when  
cleaning.  
Once or twice a year dust the condenser (black grille)  
and the compressor at the back of the appliance with  
a brush or vacuum cleaner, as an accumulation of dust  
will affect the performance of the appliance and cause  
excessive electricity consumption.  
Changing the Light Bulb  
Should the light fail to work you can change it as  
below:  
Disconnect the appliance from the electricity supply.  
Remove the lamp cover retaining screws, then take  
the lamp cover off in the direction of the arrow and the  
bulb can be changed. (Type of the bulb: 230 V, 15 W,  
E 14 thread)  
After changing the bulb replace the lamp cover, and  
retaining screws and reconnect the appliance to the  
electricity supply.  
Defrosting Your Appliance  
The fridge compartment is defrosted automatically,  
when the motor stops. Defrost water from the cooling  
plate runs out of the drain and onto a tray on the motor  
compressor where it evaporates. Droplets of water on  
the cooling plate during defrosting are quite normal  
and will freeze on the plate afterwards.  
When the appliance is not in use  
When the appliance is not in use for long periods  
disconnect from the electricity supply, empty all of the  
food and clean the appliance, leaving the door ajar to  
prevent unpleasant smells.
