Cool check temperature guide
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 rises above this level the
guide will show the words TOO WARM.
The shelf with temperature guide must be placed in
the fridge according to the instructions located on
the fridge wall and always ensure the guide is at the
front.
When cleaning the shelf take care not to immerse
the guide in water and wipe any spills from the
holder quickly.
Important
The guide is only suitable for use in the model
supplied and accurate temperature guidance cannot
be guaranteed if transferred to other appliances.
The guide will not operate in the freezer
compartment.
Everyday use of the cool check temperature guide
During everyday use a fridge door is opened many
times and as a result temperature fluctuation may
occur. A Zanussi fridge is designed to cope with any
changes in temperature but under certain
conditions the temperature guide in the appliance
may show TOO WARM.
What to do if the cool check temperature guide
shows TOO WARM
The temperature guide may show TOO WARM if:
1. The fridge is switched off.
ACTION: Start the appliance in accordance with
the instructions.
2. The fridge door has recently been opened or is left
open for more than approximately one minute.
ACTION: As mentioned before the temperature
guide is sensitive to changes in fridge
temperature and opening the fridge door may
cause the guide to show TOO WARM. This should
not cause concern as such fluctuations in
temperature do not generally affect the safe
storage of food.
Leave the fridge door closed for as long as
possible so the temperature returns to a safe
level, the guide should then appear black.
3. The fridge has been loaded with fresh shopping.
ACTION: When fresh shopping or additional
quantities of food are placed in the fridge, the
temperature may rise and cause the guide to
show TOO WARM.
Do not adjust the thermostat as the time taken
for the guide to appear black will depend on the
quantity of food introduced and the temperature.
4. The fridge temperature is above the recommended
maximum for the safe storage of all food types.
ACTION: To lower the fridge temperature, adjust
the thermostat, then leave the appliance
overnight before checking the guide again.
5. If the guide is still showing TOO WARM, adjust
the thermostat again, to a colder setting, and
leave the appliance overnight before checking the
guide again.
Defrosting
The refrigerator automatically defrosts every time
the compressor stops. The water is discharged, via
the pipe, into a tray located at the back of the
appliance above the compressor, where it
evaporates.
Important
To avoid defrost water overflowing into the fridge,
periodically clean the water discharge hole in the
centre of the V shaped drip collector at the back of
the refrigerator compartment behind the fruit and
vegetable drawer. Use the defrost cleaner provided
which you will find already inserted into the
discharge hole (Fig. 9).
