Tips for keeping food perfect in the
Table Top Fridge
Take extra care with meat and fish
Cooked meats should always be stored on a shelf above raw
meats to avoid bacterial transfer. Keep raw meats on a plate which
is large enough to collect juices and cover it with cling film or foil.
Leave space around food
This allows cold air to circulate around the Appliance,
ensuring all parts of the Appliance are kept cool.
Wrap up food!
To prevent transfer of flavours and drying out, food should be
separately packed or covered. Fruit and vegetables need not be
wrapped.
Pre-cooked food should be cooled properly
Always let pre-cooked food cool down before you put it in the
Appliance. This will stop the internal temperature of the
Appliance from rising.
Shut the door!
To prevent cold air escaping, try to limit the number of times you
open the door. When returning from shopping, sort foods to be
kept in your Appliance while the door is closed and only
open it to put food in or take food out.
NOTE:
ALWAYS WRAP AND STORE RAW MEAT, POULTRY AND FISH
ON THE LOWEST SHELF AT THE BOTTOM OF THE APPLIANCE.
THIS WILL STOP THEM DRIPPING ONTO, OR
TOUCHING OTHER FOODS. DO NOT STORE INFLAMMABLE
GASES OR LIQUIDS IN THE APPLIANCE.
Cleaning
Cleaning the outside of the Table Top
Fridge
Use standard furniture polish to clean the Appliance
exterior.
Make sure that the door is closed, preventing polish getting on
the magnetic door seal or inside on to the food. Do not use
harsh cleaners, scouring pads or solvents to clean any part of
your Appliance, as this may scratch the enamel.
Cleaning the inside of the Table Top
Fridge
Make sure the Fridge has been turned off at the mains before
cleaning. The inside of the Fridge can be cleaned with a weak
solution of bicarbonate of soda. Rinse with a damp sponge and
wipe dry. Reconnect to the mains supply.

Cleaning tips

• Clean when food stocks are low.
NOTE:
Do not use harsh cleaners, scouring pads or solvents
to clean any part of the Appliance.
Defrosting
After a period of time frost will build up in the Ice Box. Temporarily
this can be scraped away using a plastic scraper. NEVER use a metal
or sharp instrument. Complete defrosting will however become
necessary approximately once per year, or if the frost layer exceeds
5cm (2") to maintain the efficiency of the Fridge. This should be
carried out if the frost build up cannot be scraped away, or if it
begins to interfere with the food storage. Choose a time when the
stock of food is low and proceed as follows:
1 Take out the chilled food, turn the Fridge off at the mains
supply and leave the door open. Ideally the chilled food should
be put into another refrigerator. If this is not possible wrap the
food, in several sheets of newspaper or large towels and keep
it in a cool place.
2 Scrape away as much frost build up as possible using a plastic
scraper. Thawing of the remainder can be speeded up by
placing bowls of hot water inside the Fridge cabinet and closing
the door. As the solid frost loosens, prize it away with the plastic
scraper and remove.
3 When defrosting is completed, clean the Fridge as described in
the previous column.
