[. . . ] Fresh fruit and vegetables should be cleaned and stored in the crisper bins. To store raw meat, wrap in polythene bags and place on the lowest shelf. Do not allow to come into contact with cooked food to avoid contamination. Allow hot food and beverages to cool before placing them in the fridge. Fizzy drinks should not be frozen and products such as flavoured water ices should not be consumed too cold. Some fruit and vegetables suffer damage if kept at temperatures near 0°C. Therefore wrap pineapples, melons, cucumbers, tomatoes and similar produce in polythene bags. Shelves, racks, crisper bins, dairy compartments, drawers, baskets trays, flaps, bottle grippers are all removable. Do not leave frozen food at room temperature to thaw; the best way to defrost food is to put it in the fridge to thaw slowly. Make sure you avoid defrosting food or food juices drip onto other food. 9 STORING FROZEN FOOD Your freezer is suitable for the long-term storage of commercially frozen foods and also can be used to freeze and store fresh food. Frozen food should not be affected if the failure lasts for less than 23 hrs. If the failure is longer, then the food should be checked and either eaten immediately or cooked and then refrozen. 1 2 3 FREEZING FRESH FOOD Please observe the following instructions to obtain the best results. The quality of the food is best preserved when it is frozen right through to the core as quickly as possible. Do not exceed the freezing capacity of your appliance in 24 h which is 4. 5 kg (11lb) Placing warm food into the freezer compartment causes the refrigeration compressor to operate continuously until the food is frozen solid. This can temporarily lead to excessive cooling of the refrigeration compartment. (1 lb) can be frozen without having to rotate the temperature control knob. Take special care not to mix already frozen food and fresh food. 4 5 6 STARTING Final Check Before you start using the fridge/freezer check that: 1. Clean the interior as recommended under "CLEANING AND CARE. " 4. Insert the plug into the wall socket and switch on the electricity supply. The liquid and gases sealed within the refrigeration system may also give rise to noise, whether the compressor is running or not which is quite normal. We recommend that you set the thermostat knob midway between 2 and 3 and monitor the temperature to ensure the appliance maintains desired storage temperatures (See section Temperature control and adjustment). We recommend that you check the temperature with an accurate thermometer (see; Temperature Control and Adjustment)" 11 MAKING ICE CUBES Fill the ice - cube tray 3/4 full with water and place it in the freezer.
