OPERATION

Before use

Remove all securing tapes. Wash inside the appli- ance with lukewarm water and bicarbonate of soda (5 ml to 0.5 litre of water). Do not use soap or deter- gent as the smell may linger. Dry thoroughly.

Setting the temperature

The temperature inside the refrigerator is regulated by a thermostat with 6 temperature positions and one «OFF» (O) position.

Position 1 = minimum coldness Position 6 = maximum coldness

Turn the thermostat dial to the required position.

An intermediate position is usually the most suitable, although the temperature will be affected by:

•Room temperature

•How often the door is opened

•How much food is stored

•Position of the appliance

In determining the correct temperature control setting all these factors have to be considered and some experimentation may be necessary.

When altering the temperature setting, allow 24 hours for the temperature to stablise before making further changes.

Important

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 cool- ing plate may not defrost. Turning the knob to a lower number will cause the automatic defrosting to resume.

Fruit & vegetables: these should be thoroughly cleaned and placed in the bottom salad drawers. 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.

The walls of the refrigerator are equipped with run- ners so that shelves can be positioned as desired. For better use of space, the front half-shelf can lie over the rear one (see fig.).

The door shelves

To permit storage of food packages of various sizes the half tray can be moved horizontally.

To do this proceed as figure.

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 materi- al, 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 & chicken or poul- try): wrap in polythene bags and place on top of the salad drawers.

Meat can only be stored safely in this way for one or two days at the most.

For more thorough cleaning, the top door shelf and the bottle shelf can be removed by pulling them in the director of the arrows, then refitting them in posi- tion.
