Starting

Before the appliance is installed into the recess
plug into the mains and switch on. Check that
the mains on light comes on and the control dial
is correctly set. (See "The controls") .You will
hear the compressor start up.

Normal sound

It is quite normal for refrigerators and freezers
to make a certain amount of noise. The noise
level will vary according to where the cabinet is
positioned.
Noise and vibration can arise if the cabinet is
unsteady or is close up to some other fitment
such as a sink unit or dishwasher.
Refrigeration system. A faint gurgling or
bubbling sound can be heard when the
refrigerant is pumped through the coils of tubing
at the rear or cooling system.
Compressor. When the refrigerant is pumped
round, a whirring or pulsating noise may be
heard from the compressor.
Thermostat. The compressor is started and
stopped by the thermostat. A click can be heard
when the thermostat cuts in and out.

Frozen food storage

Your appliance has the following frozen food net
storage volume: 62 litres.
Operate the fast freeze switch BEFORE placing
fresh food to be frozen in the freezer.
Place fresh food to be frozen in the top basket;
food is completely frozen 24 hours laser.
When the food is completely frozen it can be
transferred to one of the other 2 baskets. If a
very small quantity of fresh food is to be frozen,
it is NOT necessary to adjust the thermostat
control in advance. Always ensure that air can
circulate around the food to be frozen; this will
help it to freeze quicker.
Do not allow fresh food which is to be frozen,
touch food which is already frozen.
During the freezing process, please make sure
that the door remains closed.
Important
If the temperature of frozen food rises because
of:
a) Non compliance with manufacturer's
recommendations,
b) Electric power failure,
c) Defrosting,
then recommended storage life may be reduced
and storage times may not apply.
Frozen food which is allowed to thaw
accidentally should either be used immediately
or thrown away.
Alternatively if the food is uncooked and has not
been completely defrosted it can be cooked and
then refrozen.

Ice making

Fill the ice tray with fresh drinking water to just
below the top of each cube compartment and
place in the top compartment where it will
freeze quickly.
To release the ice cubes. Twist the ice tray
along its length and the cubes will come out.
They can then be stored in a container to use at
a later date.

Thawing

Thaw frozen food in the fridge or at room
temperature, depending on the time available.
Some small items may be cooked from frozen,
but please allow extra time for cooking.
Any frozen food which has defrosted
accidentally should either be consumed as soon
as possible or thrown away. If the thawed food
is uncooked and has not been completely
defrosted, it can be cooked and refrozen.
DEFROSTED FOOD MUST NEVER BE
REFROZEN
