[. . . ] Position 1 = minimum coldness Position 6 = maximum coldness Turn the thermostat dial to the required position; the intermediate position is usually the most suitable (3-4). The thermostat setting can vary as the temperature inside the refrigerator compartment depends on the following factors: ­ room temperature ­ how often the door is opened ­ how much food is stored ­ position of the appliance Important If the refrigerator is not defrosting correctly, it is possible that because a very low temperature has been selected, the motor is working continuously, which prevents the defrost cycle from operating. To ensure correct defrosting, a lower number should be selected on the thermostat and you should notice that the motor cuts out from time to time, which is correct. If you wish to return to a lower temperature, turn the thermostat to a higher number; however you should turn the setting lower occasionally to allow automatic defrosting. The freezer compartment The four-star freezer compartment is suitable for storage of commercially frozen food and for freezing fresh foods. Freezing fresh food It is not necessary to adjust the thermostat setting when freezing fresh food. In any 24 hours you can freeze up to 2 kg. Caution In the event of a power cut the food in the freezer will not be affected if the power cut is short and if the freezer is full. Should the food begin to thaw, it must be consumed quickly and must not be re-frozen (see page 13). DEFROSTED COOKED FOOD MUST NOT BE REFROZEN. Thawing Food can be thawed in a number of ways, depending on the type of food and the size of the packs. Meat, fish and fruit should be thawed in the refrigerator compartment. Vegetables should be directly immersed in boiling water; ready-cooked dishes can be placed directly in the oven in their aluminium wrapping. A microwave oven is particularly suitable for thawing any type of frozen or deep-frozen food: follow the oven instructions, particularly regarding the placement of aluminium wrapping or containers in the oven. Making ice cubes The appliance is provided with two plastic ice cube trays. Milk bottles: these should have a cap and should be stored in the bottle rack on the door. For better use of space, the front half-shelves can lie over the rear ones. 11 The top shelf can be removed for easier cleaning (see Fig. 13 D009 D338 Positioning the door shelves To permit storage of food packages of various sizes, the door shelves can be adjusted in height. 12 D007 11 Cool check temperature guide This model has a cool check temperature guide fitted to a shelf in the fridge compartment. The guide is designed to show whether the fridge is operating at safe temperatures for all food types. The guide consists of a temperature sensitive strip sealed in the shelf trim. When the fridge is operating at the safe temperature to store food, the guide will appear black. If the temperature in the fridges rises the guide will show the words TOO WARM. The temperature in the fridge may rise if the door has just been opened, the fridge has just been loaded with shopping or if the room temperature is higher than normal. See "Everyday use of the temperature guide" for further information. [. . . ] Check that: " The bulb is fitted correctly. " Replace the bulb if it has blown. Check that: " The thermostat setting is not too high (see page 9). Check that: " Have you turned the thermostat to the correct setting? [. . . ]
