HOW TO USE THE REFRIGERATOR
Food Storage Compartment
The food storage compartment is completely closed and unventilated, which is necessary to maintain the
required low temperature for food storage. The coldest areas in the refrigerator are under the cooling fins
and at the bottom of the refrigerator. The warmer areas are on the upper door shelves. This should be
considered when placing dierent types of food in the refrigerator.
Frozen Food Storage Compartment
Quick frozen soft fruits and ice cream should be placed in the coldest part of the compartment which is at
the bottom. Frozen vegetables may be stored in any part of the compartment.
This compartment is not designed for deep or quick freezing of food. Meat or fish, whether raw or
prepared, can be stored in the frozen food storage compartment provided they are pre-cooled in the
refrigerator. To prevent food from drying out, keep it in covered dishes, containers, plastic bags or wrapped
in aluminum foil.
DEFROSTING
Frost will gradually accumulate inside the refrigerator and freezer surfaces. It must not be not allowed
to grow too thick as it acts as an insulator and adversely aects the refrigerator performance. Check the
formation of frost every couple of weeks and when it exceeds 1/2” thick or more defrost the refrigerator.
Shut o and empty the refrigerator, leaving the fridge and the freezer doors open.
Defrosting time can be reduced by filling the ice tray with hot water and placing it in the freezer
compartment. You can also open the doors without shutting o the appliance to defrost the fridge; the
process will just be a bit slower.
DO NOT USE A HOT AIR BLOWER AS PERMANENT DAMAGE COULD
RESULT. DO NOT USE A KNIFE, AN ICE PICK, OR ANY OTHER SHARP
TOOLS TO REMOVE FROST FROM THE FREEZER COMPARTMENT.
FRIDGE SECTION
Inside the refrigerator compartment, the defrost water runs from a collector channel to a drip tray/cup
at the rear of the refrigerator where it normally evaporates. If heavy frost has built up on the cooling fins
creating a lot of defrost water. Be aware your water reservoir may overflow. We suggest you inspect
reservoir before/after cycle.
FREEZER SECTION
This area must be wiped down with cloths to remove water after defrosting; there is no drain for this
compartment When all frost is melted in the freezer compartment & interior of the refrigerator it should be
wiped up with a clean cloth. Replace all food and set the thermostat to your desired setting.
