– After the appliance has been levelled and cleaned, wait for at least 2

hours before connecting it to the power supply. This allows efcient

operation and prevents damage to the compressor.

– Switch on the fridge freezer and allow it to cool down before placing

any food in it. You may want to use the Fast Freeze and Quick Cool

functions to cool the compartments down more quickly.

When the fridge freezer is rst plugged in, the default temperature settings

for the fridge and freezer are 5 °C and -18 °C respectively. These are the

recommended operating settings in normal conditions. If desired, you can

change these temperatures manually.

When the fridge freezer is rst plugged in, the default setting for the 0 °C

Zone is Chiller.

Note: When the appliance is rst switched on (or switched on after

disconnection from the main power supply), it may take up to 12 hours for

the correct temperatures to be reached.

Switching the fridge freezer on/off

The fridge freezer is in operation as soon as it is plugged in to the power

supply. The control panel will show the actual temperatures in each

compartment. The panel lock may be active.

Empty the appliance before switching it off. To switch off the appliance,

remove the plug from the power socket.

Using your fridge freezer

display stops ashing. The temperature is now set.

Colder temperatures mean your fridge freezer will have a higher energy

consumption.

Note: You cannot manually adjust the temperature if another mode (Quick

Cool, Fast Freeze, Climatise or Holiday) is active or if the control panel is

locked.

Quick Cool mode

Use Quick Cool mode if you add a large amount of fresh food to the fridge

at once (for example after purchase). The Quick Cool mode accelerates

the cooling of fresh food and protects the goods already stored from

undesirable warming.

To activate Quick Cool mode press and hold the Fridge key for 3 seconds

until the Quick Cool indicator is lit.

Instruction Manual

JLFFMDSS6001

Instruction Manual

JLFFMDSS6001

Fridge freezer

Quick Cool mode automatically stops after 3 hours. To manually switch

off Quick Cool mode press and hold the Fridge key for 3 seconds until the

Quick Cool indicator goes out.

Fast Freeze mode

Use Fast Freeze mode to accelerate the freezing of fresh food and protect

the goods already stored in the freezer from undesirable warming. This

preserves the best nutritional value, appearance and taste of the food.

If you need to freeze a large amount of food at once, we recommend that

you switch on the Fast Freeze mode up to 24 hours before placing the

food in the freezer.

To activate Fast Freeze mode press and hold the Freezer key for 3 seconds

until the Fast Freeze indicator is lit.

Fast Freeze mode automatically stops after 56 hours. To manually switch

off Fast Freeze mode press and hold the Freezer key for 3 seconds until the

Fast Freeze indicator goes out.

Holiday mode

Use Holiday mode when you will not be using the fridge for a period of

time (e.g. a holiday). When you select Holiday mode the fridge temperature

is set to 17 °C. This allows you to leave the door of the empty fridge

closed without causing an odour or mould during the absence.

Note: The freezer compartment is not affected by this setting.

To activate Holiday mode press and hold the Climatise key for 3 seconds

until the Holiday indicator is lit.

To switch off Holiday mode, either press and hold the Climatise key for 3

seconds until the Holiday indicator goes out or select another mode.

Warning! Do not store food in the fridge compartment while Holiday

mode is active. When you select Holiday mode the fridge temperature is

set to 17 °C.

0 °C Zone box

The fridge compartment contains a 0 °C Zone box. This allows you to

select the most suitable temperatures to get the best use of the food

stored in the box. The 0 °C Zone has three settings:

– Chiller

– Defrost

– Quick cool

Chiller

The chiller setting is intended to store fresh food, such as meat or

instant products. The temperature in the 0 °C Zone box is set to 0 °C

because most food will stay fresh at 0 °C but will not freeze.

When you select the chiller setting, we recommend that you set the

fridge temperature to a middle level (5 °C) to provide an optimal

temperature to help preserve your food.

Due to the different water content of meat, some meat with more

moisture will freeze at different temperatures below 0 °C. We

recommend that ‘immediately-cut’ meat should be stored in the 0 °C

Zone box with the chiller setting.

Cold-sensitive fruit (such as pineapple, avocado, bananas and grapefruit),

vegetables (such as potatoes, aubergines, beans, cucumber, courgettes

and tomatoes) or cheese should not be stored in the 0 °C Zone box.

Defrost

The defrost setting allows you to defrost frozen food without leaving

any liquid residue on the food after defrosting. Food will be left partly

frozen, ideal for cutting or cooking. The temperature in the 0 °C Zone

box is set to 1 °C.

Defrosting time may vary according to the size and thickness of the

food. The following can be used as a guide:

500 g = 7 hours

1,000 g = 8 hours

1,500 g = 10 hours.

Quick cool

The quick cool setting allows you to chill canned beverages quickly. The

temperature in the 0 °C Zone box is set to -1 °C.

Note: Remove any bottles from the 0 °C Zone box before selecting

the quick cool setting. Bottles may become frozen and be damaged.

To select one of the 0 °C Zone settings, press the 0 °C Zone repeatedly

until the indicator for the desired setting is ashing. If no keys are pressed

for a few seconds, the indicator will stop ashing and remain lit. The setting

is now saved.

Note: One of the 0 °C Zone settings must always be activated. When

the fridge freezer is switched on for the rst time, the 0 °C Zone is set to

Chiller.

Multi air ow

The refrigerator is equipped with a multi air ow system which helps to

maintain a uniform temperature and ensures that your food is kept fresher

for longer. Cool air ows are located on every shelf level.

Foldable bottle rack

The refrigerator is equipped with a bottle rack which can be folded away

when not in use to save space. To use the bottle rack:

1. Pull down the brackets of the bottle rack.

2. Fit the bottles in the rack.

Note: Make sure that the total weight of bottles in the bottle rack does not

exceed 10 Kg.

Sealed box

The sealed box is used to store small items, such as jam, cheese, tomato

puree, etc.

Do not open the door of the sealed box more than 120°, as it may damage

the box.

Fruit, vegetables and salad box

The humidity level in this box is automatically maintained at approximately

90%. This box is suitable for the storage of fruit, vegetables and salad.

Extendable freezer drawers

The freezer drawers are mounted on telescopic runners which means that

they can be pulled fully out, making it easier to store and remove frozen

food from the drawers. There is also an automatic door closing mechanism

to help you save energy.

Note: Make sure that the total weight of frozen food in each freezer

drawer does not exceed 35 Kg.

Pre-freezing rack

Each freezer drawer contains a pre-freezing rack which allows you to

separate fresh food to be frozen from already frozen food in the drawer.

This prevents the already frozen food from partly defrosting because of the

difference in temperature between it and the fresh food.

The pre-freezing rack can also be used to store smaller frozen items, such

as herbs, ice lollies or the ice cube tray.

Fresher pad

The fresher pad can be used for:

– Quick freezing

– Quick defrosting.

Quick freezing

The fresher pad can be used in the freezer to speed up freezing time.

Food will freeze up to three times faster than it would without the

fresher pad, ice crystal formation will be minimised and the quality of the

frozen food will not be reduced.

To use the fresher pad for freezing:

1. Make sure that the fresher pad is dry.

2. Place the fresher pad in the slot in the upper freezer drawer with

the words ‘Fresher Pad’ up.

3. Place the food to be frozen on the fresher pad.

Quick defrosting

The fresher pad can be used outside the appliance to speed up

defrosting time. Food will defrost up to ve times faster than it would

without the fresher pad.

To use the fresher pad for defrosting:

1. Place the fresher pad on a at surface outside the appliance with

the words ‘Fresher Pad’ up.

2. Allow the fresher pad to warm up to room temperature.

3. Place the food to be defrosted on the fresher pad.

Note: Do not touch the aluminium parts of the fresher pad when using it in

the freezer compartment as unprotected skin may freeze to the surface.

Ice cube tray

To make ice cubes:

1. Fill the ice cube tray ¾ full of water.

2. Place the cover on the ice cube tray.

3. Put the ice cube tray in the freezer and allow time for the water to

freeze.

To dispense ice cubes from the tray, remove the cover then twist the tray

slightly. If necessary, hold the tray under owing water to loosen the ice

cubes.

Dynamic ABT

The dynamic ABT function sterilises, cleans and deodorises the refrigerator

compartment.

Fan shield

The fan shield (behind the back wall of the refrigerator) limits the effects of

temperature uctuations and prevents ice formation in the refrigerator. This

helps food preservation and saves energy.

Door opening alarm

The door opening alarm sounds if the refrigerator door is open for more

than 3 minutes. The door opening alarm can be silenced by closing the

door.

If the door is open for more than 7 minutes, the interior light will go out

and the control panel illumination will automatically stop.

Tips on storing fresh food

– Keep your fridge temperature below 5 °C.

– Hot food must be cooled to room temperature before storing in the

appliance.

– Foods stored in the fridge should be washed and dried before storing.

– Food to be stored should be properly sealed to avoid odour or taste

alterations.

– Do not store excessive quantities of food. Leave space between

foods to allow cold air to ow around them, for a better and more

homogeneous cooling.

– Foods eaten daily should be stored at the front of the shelf.

– Leave a gap between foods and the inner walls, allowing air ow.

– Do not store foods touching the rear wall. Food could freeze against

rear wall.

– Avoid direct contact of food (especially oily or acidic food) with the

inner liner, as oil/acid can erode the inner liner. Clean away oily/acid dirt

whenever it is found.

– Defrost frozen food in the fridge storage compartment or with the

Defrost function in the 0 °C Zone box. This way, you can use the

frozen food to reduce the temperature in the compartment and save

energy.

– Different kinds of food should be placed in different areas according to

their properties:

1. Butter, cheese, eggs, spices, etc.

2. Eggs, canned food, spices, etc.

3. Jam, cheese, tomato sauce, etc.

4. Drinks and bottled foods.

5. Pickled foods, canned food, etc.

6. Meat products, snack foods, pasta, milk, tofu, dairy, etc.

7. Wine, champagne, etc.

8. Cooked meat, sausages, etc.

9. 0 °C Zone box: canned beverages (Quick cool), raw fresh food

(chiller), frozen food to be defrosted (Defrost).

10. Fruit, vegetables, salad, etc.

Instruction Manual

JLFFMDSS6001

Fridge freezer

– The ageing process of fruit and vegetables such as courgettes, melons,

papaya, banana, pineapple, etc. can be accelerated in the fridge.

Therefore, it is not advisable to store them in the fridge. However, the

ripening of strong green fruits can be promoted for a certain period.

– Onions, garlic, ginger and other root vegetables should be stored at

room temperature.

– Unpleasant odours inside the fridge are an indication that something has

spilled and should be cleaned immediately.

Tips on storing frozen food

– Keep the freezer temperature at -18 °C.

– 24 hours before freezing additional items switch on Fast Freeze mode

(for small quantities of food 4-6 hours is sufcient).

– Hot food must be cooled to room temperature before storing in the

freezer compartment.

– Food cut into small portions will freeze faster and is easier to defrost

and cook. The recommended weight for each portion is less than 2.5 kg

– It is better to pack food before putting it into the freezer. The outside

of the packaging must be dry to avoid bags sticking together. Packaging

materials should be odour-free, airtight, non-poisonous and non-toxic.

– To avoid expiration of storage periods, we recommend that you make

a note of the freezing date, time limit and name of the food on the

packaging according to the storage periods of different foods.

– Acid, alkali and salt etc. can erode the internal surface of the freezer. Do

not place food which includes these substances (e.g. sea sh) directly

on the internal surface. Salt water in the freezer should be cleaned up

immediately.

– Do not exceed the food storage times recommended by the

manufacturers.

– Only take the required amount of food out of the freezer.

– Consume defrosted food quickly. Defrosted food cannot be re-frozen

unless it is rst cooked, otherwise it may cause a health hazard.

– Do not load excessive quantities of fresh food in the freezer

compartment. Refer to the freezing capacity of the freezer – see the

technical data or the type plate.

– Food can be stored in the freezer at a temperature of at least -18 °C

for 2 to 12 months, depending on its properties (e.g., meat: 3-12

months, vegetables: 6-12 months).

– When freezing fresh food, avoid bringing it in contact with already

frozen food as there may be a risk of thawing the frozen food.

When storing commercially frozen foods, please follow these guidelines:

– Always follow manufacturers’ guidelines for the length of time you

should store food for. Do not exceed these guidelines.

– Try to keep the length of time between purchase and storage as short

as possible to preserve food quality.

– Buy frozen foods which have been stored at a temperature of -18 °C or

below.

– Avoid buying food which has ice or frost on the packaging – this may

indicate that the products have been partially defrosted and refrozen at

some point.

cleaning.

To clean the fridge freezer:

– Clean the interior and exterior casing using a sponge or cloth with

water and mild (neutral) detergent.

– Rinse and dry with a soft cloth.

– Clean the accessories with warm water and a neutral detergent.

– Allow at least 5 minutes before restarting the fridge freezer as frequent

starting may damage the compressor.

Note: Do not clean any part of the fridge freezer in a dishwasher.

Clean the ice container periodically with warm water, especially if ice cubes

have got old and stale. Dry the container thoroughly before putting it back

into the appliance to prevent ice cubes from sticking to the walls.

The shelves (A) can be removed for cleaning or adjusted to t your storage

needs. To remove a shelf:

1. Make sure that there is nothing on the shelf.

2. Lift the back edge and pull the shelf towards you.

To reinstall the shelf, put it on the lugs on both sides and gently push it as

far back as possible until the rear of the shelf is xed inside the slots in the

sides. Make sure that both sides of the shelf are level.

The door racks/bottle holder (B) can be removed for cleaning:

1. Place hands on each side of the rack/holder and lift it upwards.

2. Pull the door rack/bottle holder out.

To insert the door rack/bottle holder, place it in the correct position in the

door and press it down until it is secure.

The bottle holders in the freezer compartment are intended for temporary

storage of spirits with a high alcohol content. Beverage without high alcohol

content should be cooled in the fridge.

Additionally you can store small items in the bottle holders.

Instruction Manual

JLFFMDSS6001

Fridge freezer

The optional OK temperature indicator (F) on the inner wall of the fridge, is

used to monitor temperatures below 4 °C. If the sign does not indicate OK,

gradually reduce the temperature.

Defrosting

Defrosting the fridge and the freezer is done automatically - no manual

operation is needed.

Replacing the LED lights

The LED interior light comes on when the door is opened. The

performance of the lights is not affected by any of the appliance’s other

settings.

Do not replace the LED lamp yourself. It must be replaced by either the

manufacturer or an authorised service agent.

Removable auxiliary door gaskets

There are six auxiliary door gaskets on the upper and lower freezer drawer.

To order auxiliary door gaskets, contact John Lewis customer service.

To attach the auxiliary door gaskets:

1. Locate the ve indicated door gaskets on the upper and lower freezer

drawer.

2. Make sure that the bent slices of the gaskets point inwards when

attaching.

3. Locate the lower gasket of the upper drawer.

4. Make sure the bent slice of this gasket points downwards when

attaching.

Power disruption

In the event of a power cut, your fridge freezer will preserve your frozen

food for approximately 13 hours.

If the power cut lasts for longer than 13 hours:

– Do not open the door.

– Do not put additional food into the fridge freezer.

Tip: If you have prior notice of a power cut and you expect it to last longer

than 13 hours, make some ice and place it in a container on the top shelf of

the fridge compartment.

Once the power cut is over, check the food in the fridge freezer. The

temperature in the fridge will rise during a power cut or other failure and

the storage period and edible quality of food will be reduced. We strongly

recommend that any food which has defrosted either be consumed, or

cooked and refrozen (where suitable) to prevent health risks.

Note: When power is restored, the fridge freezer will retain the same

memory settings it had before power cut.
