How to use the features of your 
refrigerator

This  section  tells  you  how  to  make  the  most  of  the 
refrigerators  many  useful  features  and  how  to  clean 
them.

Door storage bins (shelves)

Both the refrigerator and freezer have door storage bins.
You  can  adjust  the  refrigerator  bins  to  meet  different 
storage needs. All the door bins are completely removable 
for cleaning. If you want to remove or adjust a bin, lift it 
over the support lugs on the inner door panel. Push the 
bin down over the support lugs to lock it in place.

Dairy compartment

You can use the Dairy compartment to store foods such as 
butter, margarine and cheeses. The compartment is slightly 
warmer than the rest of the refrigerator compartment.

Crisper Bin

Storing vegetables

You  can  use  the 
crisper  bin  to  store 
vegetables,  fruit  or 
small  goods.You  can 
change  the  humidity 
inside  the  bin  by 
rotating  the  humidity 
control.

You should store vegetables in the crisper bin remembering 
to set the humidity control to more humid.

Storing fruit & smallgoods

You can also store fruit in the crisper bin remembering to 
set the humidity control to less humid.

Crisper Bin and shelf removal

• Remove the crisper bin(s) by pulling forward, then 
up and forward. 
• Remove the glass (if fitted) by flexing the rear of the 
shelf backward to disengage the clip and allowing the 
glass to drop out of the plastic frame.
• Remove the crisper shelf by lifting the catches on the 
underside of the shelf and pulling the shelf forward.

Sliding Deli Shelf/ Bin (where fitted)

The sliding deli bin allows you to position the deli-bin in 
any  position  within  the  refrigerator.  This  allows  you  to 
conveniently locate it around stored food or to align it with 
the multi flow vents for direct cooling.

Usage Instructions:

In order to correctly use the deli bin it should be located 
fully on the left or right or in a central position. This will 
align  the  multiflow  vents  with  the  ducting  surfaces  at 
the rear of the deli bin. One or both of the vents can be 
opened to allow cooler air to pass over foodstuffs stored 
in the deli. 

The air from these vents can be very cold, which is useful 
for  the  fast  chilling  of  food  and  drinks.  However,  items 
may freeze if left near the vents. To prevent freezing, move 
items away from the vents after chilling.

Cleaning: The sliding deli shelf can be removed for ease 
of cleaning. In order to do so a flexible locking mechanism 
has been incorporated into the rear shelf rail. 

• Remove Deli Bin

• Remove the shelf assembly 
by pulling it past the stops.

•  Place  the  full  assembly  up 
side down on a flat surface. 

•  Slide  the  sub  frame  to  the 
left until it engages with the locking mechanism. 

• Pull the thumb tag away from the rail to disengage 
it. 

• Slide the sub frame past this and 
allow it to flex back into position.

Clean the parts as required and allow to 
dry. To replace the sub frame repeat this 
procedure making sure to align the front 
lip on the front shelf recess. 

ALL GLASS IS SAFETY GLASS.  
HOWEVER CAUTION SHOULD BE 
TAKEN WHEN REMOVING THE 
SHELF FOR REPOSITIONING OR FOR 
CLEANING.  AS THE  ASSEMBLY IS 
RELATIVELY HEAVY AND IF HELD IN 
THE VERTICAL POSITION (AS SHOWN) 
THE RUNNER ASSEMBLY MAY DROP 
DOWN. 

DO NOT REMOVE ANY SCREWS!
