Help to keep your country tidy – use authorised disposal sites for your old appliances. Do not position the appliance near to sources of heat. 4 Make sure that the door is closed properly. Do not over-fill your appliance, air MUST be allowed to circulate.
INSTALLATION Warning IF YOU ARE DISCARDING AN OLD APPLIANCE THAT HAS A LOCK OR CATCH ON THE DOOR, YOU MUST ENSURE THAT IT IS MADE UNUSABLE TO PREVENT YOUNG CHILDREN BEING TRAPPED INSIDE. Adjust the level of the appliance by screwing out the adjustable foot, or feet, at the bottom of the cabinet using your fingers or a spanner (see Fig. 2). Fig. 2 Depending upon the position which you choose for your appliance, you may wish to reverse the way in which the door opens.
The electrical connections WARNING: THIS APPLIANCE MUST BE EARTHED. The manufacturer declines any liability should this safety measure not be observed.

OPERATION Setting the temperature Freezing fresh food The temperature inside the refrigerator and freezer is regulated by a single thermostat with 6 temperature positions and one «OFF» (O) position. It is not necessary to adjust the thermostat setting when freezing fresh food. Position 1 = minimum cold Position 6 = maximum cold Place food to be frozen in the bottom drawer of the freezer as this is the coldest part.
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. ª Keep the time between buying chilled food and placing it in your fridge as short as possible.
Fresh food refrigeration Positioning the door shelves 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 permit storage of food packages of various sizes, the door shelves can be adjusted in height.
Defrosting Refrigerator 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. – Reconnect the appliance to the mains or reset the thermostat. After letting the appliance run for at least half an hour, replace the previously removed food into the compartment. Fig.
MAINTENANCE AND CLEANING Before any maintenance or cleaning work is carried out, DISCONNECT the appliance from the ELECTRICITY supply. 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.
WHAT HAPPENS IF SOMETHING GOES WRONG? ª There is power at the socket. If, after the above checks, there is still a fault, call your local Tricity Bendix Service Centre. Please make sure you give the model and serial number of the appliance. This information can be found on the rating plate inside the fridge compartment on the left side behind the vegetable drawer, or on the guarantee certificate. ª Ensure that there is not a power cut by checking the household lights.
