Set the door at right position, fix the top-hinge and then the top cover.
Note :
Ensure the Appliance is unplugged and empty.
Adjust the two leveling feet to their highest position.
We recommend you have someone to assist you.
To take the door off it is necessary to tilt the appliance backward.
The refrigerator inclination angle should be less than 45°.
You should rest the Appliance on something solid e.g. a chair just below the top panel.
Do not lay the Appliance completely flat as this may damage the coolant system.
FREEZER DEFROSTING
Frost will accumulate inside the freezer depending upon the length of time during
which the door is left open or the amount of moisture introduced.
It is essential to ensure that no frost or ice is allowed to form at places where it will
affect the close fitting of the door seal.
This might allow air to penetrate the cabinet, thus encouraging continuous running
of the compressor.
Thin frost formation is quite soft and can be removed with a brush or plastic scraper.
Do not use metal or sharp scrapers, mechanical devices or other means to accelerate
the defrosting process. Remove all dislodged frost from the cabinet floor.
For the removal of thin frost it is not necessary to switch off the appliance.
For the removal of heavy ice deposits disconnect the appliance from the mains supply
and empty the contents into cardboard boxes and wrap in thick blankets or layers of
paper to keep them cold. Defrosting will be most effective if carried out when the
freezer is empty, and it should be carried out as quickly as possible.
An increase in temperature of frozen food packages during defrosting will shorten
the storage life. Provided that the contents are well wrapped and placed in a cool
area, they should keep for several hours.
Examine the contents when replacing them in the freezer and if some of the packages
have thawed out.
After defrosting is finished clean the inside with a solution of warm water with a
little bicarbonate of soda and then dry thoroughly. Wash all removable parts in the
same way and reassemble.
Reconnect the appliance to the mains supply and leave for 2 to 3 hours on setting
number MAX before introducing the food back into the freezer and setting the
thermostat to your normal setting.
NOISE FROM YOUR APPLIANCE
You may notice some rather unusual noises. The noises are caused by circulation
of refrigerant in the cooling system. It has become more pronounced since
the introduction of CFC free gases. This is not a fault and will not affect the
performance of your fridge.
