Cool check temperature guide

The guide consists of a temperature sensitive strip sealed in the shelf trim.

When the fridge is operating at the safe temperature to store food, the guide will appear black. If the temperature rises above this level the guide will show the words TOO WARM.

The shelf with temperature guide must be placed in the fridge according to the instructions located on the fridge wall and always ensure the guide is at the front.

When cleaning the shelf take care not to immerse the guide in water and wipe any spills from the holder quickly.

Important

The guide is only suitable for use in the model supplied and accurate temperature guidance cannot be guaranteed if transferred to other appliances. The guide will not operate in the freezer compartment.

Everyday use of the cool check temperature guide

During everyday use a fridge door is opened many times and as a result temperature fluctuation may occur. A Zanussi fridge is designed to cope with any changes in temperature but under certain conditions the temperature guide in the appliance may show TOO WARM.

What to do if the cool check temperature guide shows TOO WARM

The temperature guide may show TOO WARM if:

1.The fridge is switched off.

ACTION: Start the appliance in accordance with the instructions.

2.The fridge door has recently been opened or is left open for more than approximately one minute. ACTION: As mentioned before the temperature guide is sensitive to changes in fridge temperature and opening the fridge door may cause the guide to show TOO WARM. This should not cause concern as such fluctuations in temperature do not generally affect the safe storage of food.

Leave the fridge door closed for as long as possible so the temperature returns to a safe level, the guide should then appear black.

3.The fridge has been loaded with fresh shopping. ACTION: When fresh shopping or additional quantities of food are placed in the fridge, the temperature may rise and cause the guide to show TOO WARM.

Do not adjust the thermostat as the time taken for the guide to appear black will depend on the quantity of food introduced and the temperature.

4.The fridge temperature is above the recommended maximum for the safe storage of all food types. ACTION: To lower the fridge temperature, adjust the thermostat, then leave the appliance overnight before checking the guide again.

5.If the guide is still showing TOO WARM, adjust the thermostat again, to a colder setting, and leave the appliance overnight before checking the guide again.

Defrosting

The refrigerator automatically defrosts every time the compressor stops. The water is discharged, via the pipe, into a tray located at the back of the appliance above the compressor, where it evaporates.

Important

To avoid defrost water overflowing into the fridge, periodically clean the water discharge hole in the centre of the V shaped drip collector at the back of the refrigerator compartment behind the fruit and vegetable drawer. Use the defrost cleaner provided which you will find already inserted into the discharge hole (Fig. 9).
