JLFFW175 JLFFIN175 Fridge-Freezer Instruction manual
Safety information It is most important that this instruction book should be retained with the appliance for future reference. Should the appliance be sold or transferred to another owner, or should you move house and leave the appliance, always ensure that the book is supplied with the appliance in order that the new owner can get to know the functioning of the appliance and the relevant warnings. These warnings have been provided in the interest of safety.
• The appliance is intended for keeping foodstuff and/or beverages in a normal household as explained in this instruction booklet. • Do not use a mechanical device or any artificial means to speed up the thawing process. • Do not use other electrical appliances (such as ice cream makers) inside of refrigerating appliances, unless they are approved for this purpose by the manufacturer. • Do not damage the refrigerant circuit.
• Appliance's manufacturers storage recommendations should be strictly adhered to. Refer to relevant instructions. • Do not place carbonated or fizzy drinks in the freezer compartment as it creates pressure on the container, which may cause it to explode, resulting in damage to the appliance. • Ice lollies can cause frost burns if consumed straight from the appliance. • Please refer to the correct positioning and location instructions that can be found in the Installation section of this user guide.

Operation Switching on A medium setting is generally the most suitable. Insert the plug into the wall socket. Turn the Temperature regulator clockwise to a medium setting. However, the exact setting should be chosen keeping in mind that the temperature inside the appliance depends on: • room temperature • how often the door is opened • the quantity of food stored • the location of the appliance. Switching off To turn off the appliance, turn the Temperature regulator to the "O" position.
Daily use Freezing fresh food depending on the time available for this operation. Small pieces may even be cooked still frozen, directly from the freezer: in this case, cooking will take longer. The freezer compartment is suitable for freezing fresh food and storing frozen and deep-frozen food for a long time. To freeze fresh foods it is not necessary to change the medium setting.
Removal of freezing baskets from the freezer To make these adjustments proceed as follows: gradually pull the shelf in the direction of the arrows until it comes free, then reposition as required. 2 1 The freezing baskets have a limit stop to prevent their accidental removal or falling out. At the time of its removal from the freezer, pull the basket towards yourself and, upon reaching the end point, remove the basket by tilting its front upwards.
Bananas, potatoes, onions and garlic, if not packed, must not be kept in the refrigerator. • If the ambient temperature is high and the Temperature Regulator is set to low temperature and the appliance is fully loaded, the compressor may run continuously, causing frost or ice on the evaporator. If this happens, set the Temperature Regulator towards a warmer setting to allow automatic defrosting and will therefore save in electricity consumption.
• Once defrosted, food deteriorates rapidly and cannot be refrozen. • Do not exceed the storage period indicated by the food manufacturer. • make sure that the commercially frozen foodstuffs were adequately stored by the retailer; • be sure that frozen foodstuffs are transferred from the foodstore to the freezer in the shortest possible time; • not open the door frequently or leave it open longer than absolutely necessary.
Defrosting can be accelerated by placing bowls with hot water (not boiling) inside the freezer. • Loosen the drainage channel from its resting position, push it in according to the illustration and place it in the bottom freezer drawer where water can collect • carefully scrape off the ice when it starts to thaw. Use a wood or a plastic scraper • when all the ice has melted, clean and wipe the cabinet dry, then put the drainage channel back in place. • switch on the cabinet and replace the frozen foodstuff.
What to do if… Caution! Before troubleshooting, disconnect the power supply. Only a qualified electrician or competent person must do the troubleshooting that is not in this manual. Important! There are some sounds during normal use (compressor, refrigerant circulation). Problem Possible cause Solution The appliance is noisy. The appliance is not supported properly. Check if the appliance stands stable (all the four feet should be on the floor). The compressor operates continually.
Problem Possible cause Solution The temperature in the appliance is too low. The Temperature regulator may be set incorrectly. Set a higher temperature. The temperature in the appliance is too high. The Temperature regulator may be set incorrectly. Set a lower temperature. The door is not closed correctly. Refer to "Closing the door". The product temperature is too high. Let the product temperature decrease to room temperature before storage. Many products are stored at the same time.
2. If necessary, adjust the door. Refer to "Installation". 3. If necessary, replace the defective door gaskets. Contact the Service Force Centre.
