Occasionally, strong-smelling food may leave the fridge
with a slight odour. Placing a small dish of bicarbonate of
soda powder inside should slowly absorb these smells.
The dish should be refilled periodically.
Going on holiday
Don't switch off at the mains if you intend leaving food in
the refrigerator. For two days or less, there is no need to
remove any food. For up to a week, remove all food from
the refrigerator compartment except eggs, butter and
bacon.
If you intend leaving the fridge empty, switch off at the
wall socket, defrost, clean, and dry, then leave the door
open to prevent the accumulation of odours inside.
CHANGING OVER THE DOOR HINGES
Carefully prise out the plastic plugs seating the
alternative screw-holes in the top of cabinet for the upper
hinge. Lay the (empty) refrigerator on its back and
transfer the upper and lower hinges to the opposite side.
Push the plastic plugs into the vacated screw-holes in the
top of the cabinet. Stand the refrigerator on its feet and
check that the door closes properly and seals all round.
CHANGING THE OUTER DOOR PANEL
Unscrew the hinges from cabinet and remove the door
with hinges.
Remove the bottom section of the door surround, held by
2 screws.
The existing door panel can then be slid out and a new
one, of similar dimensions, fitted in its place. Reassemble
in the reverse sequence.
SOMETHING NOT WORKING
Before you call for your Service Engineer, carry out these
simple checks:
Is there a power failure? Check your house lights.
Is the plug firmly connected to the wall socket and is the
socket switched on? Check the power supply by plugging
in another appliance or a table lamp.
Is the fuse in the plug intact? If you have fitted your own
plug are the wires correctly connected?
Is the thermostat dial at the correct setting? (Normally
No. 3 or 4).
Has the defrost button been inadvertently pushed in? If it
has, turn the thermostat dial to position 0" and the button
should spring out. Then reset the dial to its usual position
and the fridge should start cooling again.
Has the door been left open causing the temperature to
rise?
Is the fridge still level?
Has the air-flow over the back become obstructed?
If after checking all the above points your fridge still won't
work properly, call your nearest Service shop or office
without delay.
For future reference, we suggest you record these details
here and keep the receipt with the handbook as proof of
the date of purchase.
This refrigerator is equipped with overheating protection.
An authorised service technician can check whether this
has been triggered or not.
