[. . . ] Under no circumstance should a damaged appliance be installed. In the event of damage please contact your retailer. Installation s s s s s s s This appliance is heavy. It is dangerous to alter the specifications or attempt to modify this product in any way. Ensure that the appliance does not stand on the electrical supply cable. [. . . ] Should the food begin to thaw, it must be consumed quickly and must not be re-frozen. Making ice cubes The appliance is provided with a plastic ice cube tray. Fill the tray 3/4 full to allow the ice to expand and place it in the -star compartment. To turn out the ice cubes simply give the tray a slight twist to release the cubes. Never tray to free an ice tray that is frozen to the -star compartment using a sharp or pointed object. Important Do not consume ice-lollies which have just come out of the -star compartment. Their extremely low temperature can cause frost burns. Do not remove items from the -star compartment if your hands are damp/wet, as this could cause skin abrasions or "frost/freezer burns". Normal Operating Sounds You may hear faint gurgling or bubbling sounds when the refrigerant is pumped through the coils or tubing at the rear, to the cooling evaporator. When the compressor is on, the refrigerant is being pumped round, and you will hear a whirring sound or pulsating noise from the compressor. A thermostat controls the compressor, and you will hear a faint `click' when the thermostat cuts in and out. 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 refrigeration compartment and small pieces of meat can even be cooked while still frozen, but you must ensure that it is thoroughly cooked through. Vegetables should be directly immersed in boiling water; ready-cooked dishes can be placed directly in the oven in their aluminium wrapping. Place a tray on the upper shelf of the refrigerator under the drain hole of the conveyor. Remove any food from inside the -star compartment, wrap it in several sheets of newspaper and store in a cool dry place. Turn the thermostat dial to the «OFF» (O) position. To accelerate defrosting, place a bowl of hot water inside the compartment (with a piece of cardboard underneath the bowl as protection). When defrosting is completed, dry thoroughly and remove the water collected in the tray. Turn the thermostat knob on a medium position to restart the appliance. 7 After letting the appliance run for at least half an hour, replace the previously removed food into the star compartment. When defrosting it is not necessary to remove the foods from the inner door and the refrigerator compartment. Important A temperature rise of the frozen food packs during defrosting may shorten their storage life. Never use sharp metal tools to scrape off frost from the evaporator as you could damage it beyond repair. MAINTENANCE AND CLEANING Before any maintenance or cleaning work is carried out, DISCONNECT the appliance from the ELECTRICITY supply. - Adjust the thermostat control knob to give correct temperature control. [. . . ] Gently lay the appliance on its back with the top held away from the floor by 5-8 cm (2-3 inches) of packing. Remove the door (4) by opening it and pulling it gently downwards to remove it from the top hinge pin (2). Unscrew the top hinge pin (2) from the top hinge (1) and replace it in the opposite hole on the left hand side. Unscrew the foot at the base (6) of the appliance and refit it on the opposite side.
