GETTING STARTED

Before you start using the fridge/freezer check that:

1.The interior is dry and air can circulate freely at the rear of the cabinet.

2.Clean the interior as recommended under "CLEANING AND CARE."

3.Insert the plug into the wall socket and switch on the electricity supply.

• When the door is open the fridge interior light will come on.

4.You will hear a noise as the compressor starts up. The liquid and gases sealed within the refrigeration system may also give rise to noise, whether the compressor is running or not which is quite normal.

5.Set the thermostat knob half way between 1 and 5.

6.Front edges of the cabinet may feel warm. This is normal. These areas are designed to be warm to avoid condensation.

7."Do not load the appliance immediately it is switched on. Wait until the correct storage temperature has been reached. We recommend that you check the temperature with an accurate thermometer (see; Temperature Control and Adjustment)"

STORING FROZEN FOOD

Prepacked commercially frozen food should be stored in accordance with the

frozen food manufacturer's instructions for a frozen food storage compartment.

To ensure that the high quality achieved by the frozen food manufacturer and the food retailer is maintained, the following should be remembered:

1.Put packets in the freezer as quickly as possible after purchase.

2.Ensure that contents are labelled and dated.

3.Do not exceed "Use By", "Best Before" dates on the packaging.

If there is a power failure do not open the door. Frozen food should not be affected if the failure lasts for less than 14 hrs. If the failure is longer, then the food should be checked and either eaten immediately or cooked and then re- frozen.
