manufacturer's recommendations.
(small cuts): thaw at room temperature or cook directly.
Fish: thaw in the refrigerator compartment without unwrapping
or cook directly before being completely thawed.
Previously cooked foods: re-heat in the oven without re-
moving from its aluminium container.
Fruit: thaw in the refrigerator compartment.
NOTE: Do not store liquids in glass containers in the
freezer.
Power failure
We remind you that:
1. The freezer compartment maintains the storage temperature
for 24 hours approx. During this time we suggest leaving the
door of the compartment closed.
2. Should the power failure last more than 24 hours:
a) take out all frozen food from the freezer compartment and
store them in the refrigerator. Contrarily use up the food
immediately;
b) empty the ice cube tray if the ice has melted.
3) A full freezer will stay cold longer than a partly filled one. A
freezer full of meat will stay cold longer than a freezer full of
baked goods.

2. Press a sturdy glass against the ice dispenser bar.
3. Remove the glass to stop dispensing.
NOTE: The first few batches of ice may have an off-taste from
new plumbing and parts. Throw the ice away.
Ice is dispensed from the ice maker storage bin in the freezer.
When the dispenser bar is pressed, a trapdoor opens in a chute
between the dispenser and the ice bin. Ice is moved from the
bin and falls through the chute. When the dispenser bar is
released, a buzzing sound may be heard for a few seconds as
the trapdoor closes.
The dispensing system will not operate when the freezer door
is open.
NOTE: Large amounts of cubed ice should be taken direct
from the bin, not through the dispenser.
For crushed ice, cubes are crushed before being dispensed.
This may cause a slight delay when dispensing crushed ice.
Noise from the ice crusher is normal, and pieces of ice may vary
in size. When changing from CRUSHED to CUBE, a small
quantity of crushed ice will be dispensed along with the first
cubes (Fig. 11).
To dispense water:
1. Press a sturdy glass against the water dispenser bar.
2. Remove the glass to stop dispensing.
NOTE: Dispense enough water every week to maintain a
fresh supply.
Chilled water comes from a tank behind the meat drawer. It
holds about 1.5 I.
When the refrigerator is first hooked up, press the water
dispenser with a glass or jar until you have drawn and discard-
ed 2 or 3 quarts. The water you draw and discard will rinse the
tank and pipes.
Allow several hours to chill the first tankful.
NOTE: The small tray beneath the dispenser is designed to
evaporate small spills. There is no drain in this tray. Do not pour
water into it.
