appliance with lukewarm water and bicarbonate of  
soda (5 ml to 0.5 litre of water). Do not use soap or  
detergent as the smell may linger. Dry thoroughly.  
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 cooling  
plate may not defrost. Turning the knob to a  
lower number will cause the automatic  
defrosting to resume.  
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:  
l
Room temperature  
l How often the door is opened  
l How much food is stored  
l Position of the appliance  
In determining the correct temperature control setting  
all these factors have to be considered and some  
experimentation may be necessary.

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 material,  
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 poultry):  
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.  
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 runners  
so that shelves can be positioned as desired.  
D040  
The door shelves  
To permit storage of food packages of various sizes,  
the central door shelf can be adjusted in height.  
To do this proceed as in the figure.  
The top shelf lid can be removed for easier cleaning.  
D758  
Normal Operating Sounds  
You may hear faint gurgling or bubbling sounds when  
the refrigerant is pumped through the coils or tubing at  
the rear, to the cooling plate.  
When the compressor is on, the refrigerant is being  
pumped round, and you will hear a whirring sound or  
pulsating noise from the compressor.  
A thermostat controls the compressor, and you will  
hear a faint ‘click’ when the thermostat cuts in and out.

HEALTH AND SAFETY GUIDELINES  
Because of consumer demand, preservatives have been removed from many pre-prepared foods.  
This together with the changes in shopping habits to a once-a-week shop, mean that safe handling and  
storage of food is even more important than ever.  
The following tips should help you to ensure that  
the food in your home is in as perfect condition  
as possible.  
Do not store food uncovered.  
Keep the time between buying chilled food and  
placing it in your fridge as short as possible. Tests  
showed that the temperature of 1 litre of orange  
juice rose to 22°C in an hour between the  
supermarket and home. It then took 11 hours to  
get down to 7°C in the refrigerator.  
Remove suspect food from your refrigerator and  
clean the interior (see “Maintenance and  
Cleaning”).  
Never allow spillages to dry and harden.  
Store eggs in the egg rack provided in the  
refrigerator door. Discard any broken or chipped  
eggs.  
Keep the refrigerator door closed as much as  
possible.  
Do not push food together too much, try to allow  
air to circulate around each item.  
Regularly check the refrigerator door seal to  
ensure that it is clean and free from debris.  
Cool cooked food as quickly as possible but do  
NOT place in the refrigerator until cool. (Leave  
food in a cool place in order that it can then be  
placed in the refrigerator as soon as possible).  
Always wash your hands with soapy water and  
dry them with a clean towel before handling food.  
Keep work surfaces clean and avoid cross  
contamination by not using the same work surface  
or knife, without washing them thoroughly in  
between.  
Do NOT mix raw and cooked meat, they must be  
in separate containers. Take care not to let the  
meat juices drip onto other food. If the meat does  
drip, remove everything and clean thoroughly.  
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 salad drawers. Use  
the special cleaner provided which you will  
find already inserted into the discharge hole.

MAINTENANCE AND CLEANING  
Before any maintenance or cleaning work is carried  
out, DISCONNECT the appliance from the  
ELECTRICITY supply.  
When the appliance is not in use  
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.  
Warning  
This appliance contains hydrocarbons in its  
cooling unit maintenance and recharging must  
therefore only be carried out by authorised  
technicians.  
Internal cleaning  
Clean the inside and accessories with warm water and  
bicarbonate of soda (5ml to 0.5 litre of water). Rinse  
and dry thoroughly.  
NEVER USE DETERGENTS, ABRASIVE POWDERS,  
HIGHLY PERFUMED CLEANING PRODUCTS OR  
WAX POLISHES, TO CLEAN THE INTERIOR AS  
THESE WILL DAMAGE THE SURFACE AND LEAVE  
A STRONG SMELL.  
Clean the drain hole of the water trough at regular  
intervals and make sure that the drain hole is never  
obstructed, so that the defrost water may flow freely.  
External cleaning  
Wash the outer cabinet with warm soapy water. Do  
NOT use abrasive products.  
Once or twice a year dust the condenser (black grill)  
and the compressor at the back of the appliance, with  
a brush or vacuum cleaner, see the figure.  
CONDENSER  
You MUST ensure that the appliance is switched OFF.  
An accumulation of dust will affect the performance of  
the appliance and cause excessive electricity  
consumption.

INSTALLATION  
Positioning  
For this appliance to work efficiently, it must not be  
located where the temperatures will fall below 10°C  
(50°F) or rise above 32°C (90°F), e.g. conservatories.  
For correct operation this appliance must be located in  
a dry atmosphere, away from heat sources, e.g.  
cookers, radiators, boilers and direct sunlight.  
You should also ensure that air can circulate freely  
around the back and the top of the cabinet. There  
should be 100mm (4”) between the top of the cabinet  
and any overhanging kitchen furniture. Alternatively  
allow 50mm (2”) between the top of the cabinet and  
any overhanging kitchen furniture and a gap of 25mm  
(1”) on either side of the appliance.

Door Reversal  
Before carrying out the operations described below,  
pull out the mains plug from the wall socket.  
To carry out this reversal go through the following  
steps:  
1. Gently lay the appliance on its back with the top  
held away from the floor by 5-8 cm (2-3 inches) of  
packing.  
2. Remove the bottom door hinge (5).  
3. Remove the door (4) by opening it and pulling it  
gently downwards to remove it from the top hinge  
pin (2).  
4. Unscrew the top hinge pin (2) from the top hinge (1)  
and replace it in the opposite hole on the left hand  
side.  
5. Unscrew the foot at the base (6) of the appliance  
and refit it on the opposite side.  
6. Refit the door and the bottom hinge to the left hand  
side.  
When positioning the bottom hinge blade on the  
reverse side, the securing screws will require a  
degree of force when fitting.  
It is therefore advisable to lubricate the screw tips  
before starting this operation.  
Important  
After completion of the door reversal operation,  
verify that the door gasket is sealing onto the  
cabinet. If the ambient temperature is cold (i.e.  
in Winter), the gasket may not fit perfectly to the  
cabinet. In that case, wait for the natural fitting  
of the gasket or accelerate this process by  
heating up the part involved with a normal  
hairdryer on a low setting.
