interior and the door should be washed with a warm
solution of sodium bi-carbonate. Finally wipe over

a clean cloth. Do not wash any plastic parts in water
that is more than hand warm, and do not expose
them to dry heat. The outside of the cabinet should
be wiped down regularly with a clean, damp cloth.

4. Positioning the appliance

When first using this refrigerator please consider
the following points:
• ENSURE REFRIGERATOR IS LEVEL
• THE PIPEWORK AT THE BACK GETS HOT IN
USE
• THE REFRIGERATOR HAS NO 'MOTOR' AND
IS THEREFORE VIRTUALLY SILENT
• ALLOW AT LEAST 3 HRS. FOR SIGNS OF
COOLING
During the refrigeration process, the appliance gives
off heat from the condenser (under the upper part
of the rear cover) into the surrounding air. The more
ventilated the condenser is, the more effective the
refrigeration will be.
• The other condition for satisfactory operation is
that the appliance is levelled. This could be
checked by placing a glass of water on top of the
appliance.
• It is important that the appliance is not directly
exposed to radiated heat (sunlight, radiator, near
an oven, etc.).
