Important safety information
General safety precautions
Keep these instructions and they should remain at the appliance when
moving away or changing owner.
This appliance is designed for storing food, domestic use according to
these instructions only.
Specialised companies that are qualified to do so by the manufacturer
must carry out service and repairs including repairing and changing the
power cord. Accessory parts supplied by them should be used only for
repairing. Otherwise the appliance can be damaged or can cause other
damage or injury.
The appliance is out of circuit only in that case if the plug is removed from
the socket. Before cleaning and maintenance always unplug it (do not get
it by the cable). If the socket is difficult to reach, switch off the appliance
by cutting off the current.
Power cord must not be lengthened.
Make sure that the power plug is not squashed or damaged by the back
of the fridge/freezer.
- A damaged power plug may overheat and cause a fire.
Do not place heavy articles or the fridge/freezer itself on the power
cord.
- There is a risk of a short circuit and fire.
Do not remove the power cord by pulling on its lead, particularly when
the fridge/freezer is being pulled out of its niche.
- Damage to the cord may cause a short-circuit, fire and/or electric shock.
- If the power cord is damaged, it must be replaced by a certified service
agent or qualified service personnel.
If the power plug socket is loose, do not insert the power plug.
- There is a risk of electric shock or fire.
Without the lamp cover of interior lighting you must not operate the
appliance.
When cleaning, defrosting, taking out frozen food or ice tray do not use
sharp, pointed or hard devices, as they can cause damage to the appliance.
Be careful not to allow liquids to the temperature control and lighting
box.
Ice and ice-cream can cause hurt if they are eaten immediately after
removal from the frozen food compartment.
After dissolving frozen food must not be refrozen, it must be used up as
soon as possible.
Store pre-packed frozen food in accordance with the frozen food manu-
facturer's instructions.
You must not make defrosting faster with any electric heating appliance
or chemicals.

Do not put hot pot to the plastic parts.
Do not store flammable gas and liquid in the appliance, because they may
explode.
Do not store carbonated drinks, bottled drinks and bottled fruits in the
frozen food compartment.
Check and clean the outlet of melting water coming during defrosting reg-
ularly. If it is clogged the melting water gathered can cause earlier failure.
Precautions for child safety
Do not allow children to play with the packaging of the appliance. Plastic
foil can cause suffocation.
Adults must handle the appliance. Do not allow children to play with it or
its controlling parts.
If you are discarding the appliance pull the plug out of the socket, cut the
connection cable (as close to the appliance as you can) and remove the
door to prevent playing children to suffer electric shock or to close themselves into it.
This appliance is not intended for use by persons (including children) with
reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of experience and
knowledge, unless they have been given supervision or instruction concerning use of the appliance by a person responsible for their safety.
Children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play with the
appliance.
Safety precautions for installation
Put the appliance to the wall to avoid touching or catching warm parts
(compressor, condenser) to prevent possible burn.
When moving the appliance take care of the plug not to be in the socket.
When placing the appliance take care not to stand it on the power cord.
Adequate air circulation should be around the appliance, lacking this leads
to overheating. To achieve sufficient ventilation follow the instructions relevant to installation.
Safety precautions for isobutane
Warning
The refrigerant of the appliance is isobutane
(R 600a) that is inflammable and explosive to a greater extent.
Keep ventilation openings, in the appliance enclosure or in the built-in
structure, clear of obstruction.
Do not use mechanical devices or other means to accelerate the defrosting process, other than those recommended by the manufacturer.
Do not damage the refrigerant circuit.
Do not use electrical appliances inside the food storage compartments of
the appliance, unless they are of the type recommended by the manufacturer.

Placement
The ambient temperature has an effect on the energy consumption and
proper operation of the appliance.
When placing, take into consideration that it is practical to operate the
appliance between ambient temperature limits according to the climate class
that is given in the chart below and can be found in the data label.
If the ambient temperature goes below the lower data the temperature of the
cooling compartment can go beyond
the prescribed temperature.
If the ambient temperature goes
beyond the upper data this means
longer operating time of the compressor, breakdown in the automatic
defrosting increasing temperature in
the cooling compartment or increasing energy consumption.
In the bag of the accessories there
are two spacers which must be fitted in the two top corners.
Slacken the screws and insert the
spacer under the screw head, the
re-tighten the screws.
When placing the appliance ensure
that it stands level.
This can be achieved by two
adjustable feet at the bottom in
front.
Do not stand the appliance on a
sunny place or close to a radiator or
cooker.
Class of climate Ambient temperature
SN +10…+32°C
N +16…+32°C
ST +18…+38°C
Page 9

If it is unavoidable because of furnishing and the appliance has to be stood
near a cooker take these minimum distances into consideration:
In case of gas or electric cooker 3
cm must be left, when it is less
put a 0,5-1 cm non-flam insulation between the two appliances.
In case of oil or coal-fired stove
the distance must be 30 cms
since they give off more heat.
The refrigerator is designed to operate when it is totally pushed to the
wall.
When placing the refrigerator keep
minimal distances recommended in
figure.
A: placing it under a wall-cupboard
B: placing it freely

for storing food in the fridge.
5. Once the required temperature has been set, after a short period (approx. 5
sec.) the temperature display will change and again indicate the current
ACTUAL temperature inside the fridge. The display will change from flashing
to continuous illumination.
Information! When the setting is changed, the compressor does not start
immediately if automatic defrosting is currently taking place. As the storage
temperature within the fridge is reached quickly you can store food immediately after switching on.

The COOLMATIC function is suited for quick cooling of large quantities of
goods in the refrigerator.
1. The COOLMATIC function is switched on by pressing the COOLMATIC button
(F).
The yellow light (E) illuminates.
The COOLMATIC function now provides for intensive cooling. A DESIRED tem-
perature of +2 ?C is automatically selected. The COOLMATIC function is ended
automatically after a period of 6 hours.
2. The COOLMATIC function can be ended manually at any time by pressing the
COOLMATIC button again. The yellow light goes out.
Holiday function
The holiday function sets the temperature at +15°C. This function allows you
to keep the refrigerator shut and empty during a long holiday period (e.g. the
summer holidays) without the formation of a bad smell.
1. To turn on the holiday function, press button (B).
2. Press continuously button (B) until the letter "H" (Holiday) appears on the
temperature indicator. The temperature indicator can modify the displayed

How to ise the refrigerator
For adequate cooling developing interior air circulation is necessary. For this
reason you are asked not to cover the air circulation gaps behind the shelves
(e.g. with tray etc.).
Do not put hot food into the refrigerator. Allow it to reach room temperature naturally. In this way the unnnecessary frost building up can be
avoided.
Foods can take over odours from each other. So it is essential to put foods
in closed dishes or wrap them in cellophane, aluminium foil, grease-proof
paper or cling film before placing them into the refrigerator. This way
foods will keep their moisture e.g. vegetables will not dry out after some
days.
Interior Accessories
Storage Shelves
Various glass storage shelves are
included with your appliance. The
height of the storage shelves can be
adjusted:
1. To do this pull the storage shelf forward until it can be swivelled
upwards or downwards and
removed.
2. Please do the same in reverse to
insert the shelf at a different
height.
Page 16

Storing in the refrigerator
When placing the different kinds of food take into consideration the sketch
below in figure:
1 Confectionery, ready-cooked
foods, foods in
dishes, fresh meat, cold cuts,
drinks
2 Milk, dairy products, foods in
dishes
3 Fruits, vegetables, salads
4 Cheese, butter
5 Eggs
6 Yoghurt, sour cream
7 Small bottles, soft drinks
8 Big bottles, drinks
Storage time and temperature of foods
The storage time chart at the end of the instruction book gives information
about storage time.
The storage time can not be determined exactly in advance, as it depends on
the freshness and handling of the cooled food. That is why the storage time
made known is only informative.
If you do not want to use up deep-frozen foods bought immediately they can
be stored for about 1 day (until dissolving) in the refrigerator.
Drawer
The drawer is suitable for storing fruit
and vegetables.
There is a separator inside the drawer
that can be placed in different position to allow for the subdivision best
suited to personal needs.

cut) warning light (M) will start to flash and a buzzer will sound. Push the
alarm reset button (L) to stop the buzzer sound, while the warning light will
continue to flash.
The buzzer will stop automatically when the temperature has returned to
normal while the warning light (M) will continue to flash. If we press the
alarm reset button (L) we stop the warning light and at the same time the
indicator show for about 5 seconds the warmest temperature reached in the
compartment.
Page 19
19
Switching the Appliance off
To switch off, hold down the (A) button.
If the appliance is not going to be used for an extended period:
1. Turn off the appliance.
2. Remove the mains plug or switch off or turn out the circuit breaker or fuse.
3. Defrost the freezer compartment and clean the appliance thoroughly (see
section: "Cleaning and Maintenance").
4. Finally, leave the doors open so as to avoid a build up of odours.
Freezing and storing frozen food
You can use your freezer for freezing fresh food yourself.
Important!
The temperature in the freezer compartment must be -18 °C or colder
before freezing food.
Please observe the freezing capacity given on the rating plate. The freezing capacity is the maximum quantity of fresh food that can be frozen
within a period of 24 hours. If you wish to freeze food several days in a row,
please observe a maximum capacity of only 2/3 to 3/4 of that on the rating plate. The quality of the food is best preserved when it is frozen right
through to the core as quickly as possible.
Allow warm food to cool down before freezing. The warmth will cause
increased ice formation and increase the power consumption.
Please note the maximum storage times specified by the manufacturer.
Thawed foods which have not been processed further (cooked into meals)
may not under any circumstances be frozen a second time.
Containers with flammable gases or liquids can leak at low temperatures.
There is a risk of an explosion! Do not store any containers with flamma-
ble materials such as, for example, spray cans, fire extinguisher refill cartridges etc in the refrigerator/freezer.
Bottles and cans must not be placed in the freezer. They can burst when
the contents freeze, high carbonate content drinks can even explode!
Never store lemonade, juices, beer, wine, sparkling wine etc. in the freezer.
Exception: high alcohol content spirits can be stored in the freezer.
All foods must be packed air tight prior to freezing, so that they do not dry
out or lose their flavour, and so that no flavour contamination of other
frozen goods occurs.
Caution! Do not touch frozen food with wet hands. Your hands could freeze
to the food.
1. To achieve faster freezing of food or to freeze the maximum allowed quantity, depress the ambient switch 12 hours before loading the food without
modifying the thermostat setting.
Page 20
20
Storing in the freezer
It is practical to replace frozen products into the basket(s) after freezing has
finished. Doing this you could make room in the freezing compartment for
another freezing. Intermediate freezing does not deteriorate foods already
stored.
In large quantities of food are to be stored, remove the baskets except the
lowermost one from appliance and place food on the cooling surface.
Do not forget to keep to the storage time given on the packaging of frozen
products if you buy them frozen. To store home-frozen products see the storing instructions placed in the door of the freezer. Symbols signify the various
foods, numbers mean maximum storing time given in months.
It is safe to store quick-frozen, frozen foods only if they have not dissolved
even for a short time until placing them into the freezer. If the deep-frozen
food has already dissolved, refreezing is not recommended, it has to be used
up as soon as possible.
How to make ice cubes
To make ice cubes fill the enclosed ice cube tray with water and put it to the
frozen food compartment. Setting thermostatic control knob to maximum
position can shorten preparing time. After finishing do not forget to reset the
thermostatic control to the suitable position.
Ready ice cubes can be taken out of the tray under running water then twist
or hit it. If the ice tray freezes to the compartment, avoid using metal tools
or knife to take it out as the cooling system can be damaged.
2. Place the food to be frozen in the top drawer.
3. Not open the door frequently or leave it open longer than absolutely necessary.
Page 21
21
Some useful information and advice
1. The variable shelves are worth paying attention to, which increases the usability of the fresh food compartment considerably. Rearranging the shelves is
also possible when the door is open at an angle of 90 .
2. After opening and closing the door of freezer vacuum will rise inside the
appliance because of the low temperature. So wait 2-3 minutes after closing
the door - if you want to open it again - while inner pressure equalises.
3. Take care of opening the freezer at a position of thermostatic control so that
the inside temperature can never be warmer than -18 C.
4. It is practical to make sure of faultless operation of the appliance daily so as
to notice possible failure in time and prevent deterioration of frozen foods.
5. Normal operating sounds:
A thermostat controls the compressor and you will hear a faint click when
thermostat cuts in and out.
You may hear faint gurgling or bubbling sound when the refrigerant is
pumped through the coils at the rear, to the cooling plate/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.
The fridge evaporator (this part cool down the fridge section) is foamed
into the cabinet. The temperature
of this part changing during its
work, and parallel with this its
dimensions are slightly changing,
too. These changes might cause a
cracking noise, which is a natural,
harmless phenomenon.
6. Should you want to check the temperature of food stored in the refrigerator, place a glass of water centrally in the cabinet, and put a proper thermometer with an accuracy of
+/- 1 °C into it. If after 6 hours you
measure a value around that seen on
the display, the refrigerator works
properly. The measuring shall be performed under steady-stated conditions
(without changing the load).
7. If the freezer temperature is measured using a thermometer, put it between
the products since this will reflect the real temperature in the frozen products. It is normal that the built-in temperature display shows a temperature
slightly above that measured in other ways.

Maintenance
Defrosting
Bleeding part of the moisture of cooling chambers in form of frost and ice
goes with the operation of the applince.
Thick frost and ice has an insulating effect, so it reduces cooling efficiency as
the temperetaure increases in the cooling chambers, they need more energy.
At this type of appliance defrosting the cooling surface of the refrigerator is
automatic without any external intervention. The termostatic control interrupts the operation of compressor at regular intervals for more or less time during this cooling is interrupted - the temperature of the cooling surface
goes above 0°C due to interior heating load of the compartment, so defrosting occurs. When the surface temperature of the cooling surface has reached
+3 - +4°C the thermostatic control restarts operation of the system.
Melting water flows through defrost water outlet leaded through the back
into the evaporator tray maintained on the top of compressor and evaporates
due to its warmth.
Check and clean the outlet of melting
water coming during defrosting regularly - a label inside the appliance
warns you for this. If it is clogged the
melting water gathered can cause
earlier failure as it can go to the insulating of the appliance.
Clean the melting water outlet with the
supplied pipe scraper that can be seen
in the figure. The pipe scraper has to be
stored in the outlet.
The most typical case of clogging up in
the melting water outlet when you put
food wrapped in some paper into the
appliance and this paper contacts back plate of the refrigerator and freezes
to it. If you remove the food right at this moment the paper will tear and it
can cause clogging up in the outlet by getting into it.
So you are asked to be careful - because of the above - when placing foods
wrapped in paper into the appliance.
In case of increased demand e. g. during heatwawes, the refrigerator temporarily happens to operate constantly - during this the automatic defrosting does not work.
Remaining small ice and frost stains on back plate of the refrigerator after
defrosting period is not abnormal.
Defrosting of the freezer is automatic in this model.

Regular cleaning
Clean the equipment regularly.
Don't use detergents, abrasive or strongly odorous cleaners, waxy polishing agents or disinfectants or alkoholic products for cleaning the equipment.
Before cleaning pull out the wall plug of the equipment from the outlet.
Internal cleaning
Clean the internal parts of the equipment and the accessories with warm
water and sodium bicarbonate (5 ml to 0.5 litre of water).
Rinse and dry everything thoroughly. Clean the door seal profile with clean
water.
External cleaning
Clean the external parts of the equipment with warm water and sodium
bicarbonate (5 ml to 0.5 litre of water).
It is recommended to remove the dust and dirt deposited on the back side of
the equipment and on the condenser once or twice a year, and to clean the
evaporation tray on top of the compressor.
After cleaning, reconnect the equipment to the mains supply.

If something does not work
During operation of the appliance some smaller but annoying trouble can
often occur, which does not require calling a technician out. In the following
chart information is given about them to avoid unnecessary charges on service.
We draw your attention that operation of appliance goes with certain sounds
(compressor- and circulating sound). This is not trouble, this goes together
with the operation of the appliance.
We draw it to your attention again that the appliance operates discontinuously, so the stopping of compressor does not mean being no-current. That
is why you must not touch the electrical parts of the appliance before breaking the circuit.
