Cool area
This is where to store foods which will keep longer if they are kept cool. Milk, eggs, yogurt, fruit juices, hard
cheeses e.g. Cheddar. Opened jars and bottles of salad dressings, sauces and jams. Fats, e.g. butter, margarine,
low-fat spreads, cooking fats and lard.
Coldest area
This is where foods which must be cold to keep them safe should be kept:
· Raw and uncooked foods should always be wrapped.
· Pre-cooked chilled foods, e.g. ready meals, meat pies, soft cheeses.
· Pre-cooked meats e.g. ham.
· Prepared salads (including pre-packed mixed green salads, rice, potato salad etc.).
· Desserts, e.g. fromage frais and cream cakes. Home-prepared food and leftovers.
NOTE: Always wrap and store raw meat, poultry and fish on the lowest shelf at the bottom of the appliance.
This will stop them dripping onto, or touching other foods. Do not store inflammable gasses or liquids in the
appliance.
Most pre-packed foods have a recommended 'use by /best before/best by/' date stamped on them. Store them
in the appliance and use within the recommended time.
SWITCHING OFF YOUR APPLIANCE
If the appliance needs to be switched off for an extended period, the following steps should be taken to prevent
mould on the appliance.
1. Remove all food;
2. Remove the power plug from the mains socket;
3. Clean and dry the interior thoroughly;
4. Ensure that the door is wedged open slightly to allow air to circulate.
WE RECOMMEND THAT YOU FOLLOW THE TIPS BELOW TO SAVE ENERGY
•
Try to avoid keeping the door open for long periods in order to conserve energy.
•
Ensure the appliance is away from any sources of heat (Direct sunlight, electric oven or cooker etc.)
•
Don't set the temperature colder than necessary.
•
Don't store warm food or evaporating liquid in the appliance.
•
Place the appliance in a well ventilated, humidity free room.
•
Do not overcrowd the refrigerator or block cold air vents. Doing so causes the refrigerator to run longer and
use more energy. The shelf (shelves) should not be lined with aluminum foil, wax paper or paper toweling,
because this will interfere with the cold air circulation, making the refrigerator less efficient so as to cause
food spoilage.
DEFROSTING
After the refrigerator has been working for a period of time, frost may form on the surface of the evaporator,
thus affecting the cooling effect and increasing electricity consumption. When the frost is too thick, defrosting
should be carried out.
Cut off the power and open the refrigerator door to let the temperature inside rise naturally. Once the
accumulated frost melts, the water will drip onto the drip tray. Please pour out the water from the drip tray
promptly. Use a dry cloth to wipe off the remaining icy water. Plug in and turn on the appliance.
SERVICING
This product should be serviced by an authorized engineer and only genuine spare parts should be used.
Under no circumstances should you attempt to repair the appliance yourself.
Repairs carried out by inexperienced persons may cause injury or serious malfunctioning. Contact the local
store where your purchase was made.
When the appliance is not in use for long periods, disconnect from the electricity supply, empty all foods
and clean the appliance, leaving the door ajar to prevent unpleasant smells.
CLEANING AND CARE
For hygienic reasons the appliance (including exterior and interior accessories) should be cleaned regularly at
least every two months.
WARNING: The appliance must not be connected to the mains during cleaning. Danger of electrical shock!
Before cleaning, switch the appliance off and remove the plug from the mains socket.
