- 11 -

• Pull the plug out from the mains socket before
each maintenance activity. Do not pull on the
cord, but hold the body of the plug instead.

• The “cracking” sound, which the appliance may
emit is caused by the expansion and contraction
of parts as a result of temperature variations.

• For safety reasons do not repair the appliance
yourself. Repairs carried out by persons who do

not have the required qualications may result in

serious danger for the user of the appliance.

• Air the room in which the appliance is placed for

a few minutes (the size of the room for a product

containing isobuthane/R600a must be at least
4m3) to avoid damage to the cooling system.

• Do not refreeze partly thawed products.

• Do not store beverages in bottles and cans, espe­cially carbonated beverages, in the freezer cham­ber. The cans and the bottles may explode.

• Do not put frozen products, taken out directly

from the freezer (lollies, ice cubes, etc.) into your

mouth, their low temperature may cause severe
frostbite.

• Make sure you do not damage the cooling sys­tem, by puncturing the refrigerant pipes in the
evaporator or breaking the pipes. The refrigerant

is ammable. If the refrigerant makes contact

with the eyes, rinse them with clean water and
call for medical assistance immediately.

• The temperature inside the appliance is inuenced by many factors.
How you set the temperature control dial depends on the ambient
temperature, sun exposure, how often you open the door and the
amount of food stored. The middle setting of the dial is most optimal
in most cases.

• Do not put food into the fridge freezer before it has reached its oper­ating temperature, which takes minimum 4 hours.

• Do not change the temperature settings due to the change in the
season of the year. The ambient temperature increase will be detect­ed by the sensor and the compressor will be switched on automati­cally for a longer period of time in order to maintain the temperature
set inside the chambers.

• The slight changes in temperature are perfectly normal and may oc­cur, for instance during the storage of great quantities of fresh prod­ucts in the fridge, or when the door is open for a longer period of

time. This will not aect the condition of the stored foodstu, and the

temperature will quickly return to its set value.

OPERATION AND FUNCTIONS

Storage of food in the fridge-freezer

• The products should be placed on plates, in containers or packed in
food wrap. Distribute them evenly over the shelves.

• If the food contacts the rear wall, it may cause frosting or wetting of
the products.

• Do not put dishes with hot food into the fridge

• Products which absorb avours easily such as butter, milk, white

cheese and products with intense avour, such as sh, smoked meat,

hard cheese must be placed on shelves, packed in food wrap or in
tightly sealed containers.

• The storage of vegetables containing signicant quantities of water
will cause the deposition of condensation on the vegetable contain­ers, it does not impact on the proper functioning of the fridge.

• Before putting the vegetables into the fridge, dry them well.

• Excessive moisture shortens the shelf life of vegetables, especially
the leafed vegetables.

• Do not wash the vegetables before storing in the refrigerator. Wash­ing removes the natural protection, therefore it is better to wash the
vegetables directly before consumption.

• It is recommended to place the products in freezer drawers 1, 2, 3*

up to natural loading capacity (Fig. 11a / 11b).**

1. Packed products

2. Shelf

3. Natural loading capacity

4.

• Stacking of products on the freezer shelves is acceptable.*

• It is acceptable to place products beyond the natural loading capacity
by 20-30 mm.**

• In order to increase the loading capacity of the freezer chamber and
allow the stacking of products on the freezer evaporator wire shelves
up to maximum height it is possible to remove drawers 1 and 2.*

Freezing food**

• Practically all the food products, except for vegetables consumed
raw, such as lettuce can be frozen.

• Only food products of the highest quality, divided into small portions
for single use, should be frozen.

• Products should be packed in materials that are odourless, resistant
to air and moisture penetration, and not susceptible to fat. Plastic
bags, polyethylene and aluminium sheets are the best wrapping ma­terials.

• The packaging should be tight and should stick to the frozen prod­ucts. Do not use glass containers.

• Keep fresh and warm foodstu at ambient temperature away from
the products, which have already been frozen.

• We advise you not to place more of fresh food at a time to the freezer

per day (see table witch technical specication).

- 23 -

• In order to maintain optimum quality of the frozen food, reorganise
the food that is in the middle of the freezer, so that it does not touch
the products that are not yet frozen.

• It is recommended that you move the already frozen products to one
side and place the fresh products that are to be frozen on the oppo­site side, as close to the rear and side walls as possible.

• To freezing products, use space marked

.

• Bear in mind that the temperature in the freezer is aected by sev­eral factors, including the ambient temperature and the quantity of
food products in the chamber, the frequency of opening the door, the
amount of frost in the freezer, and the thermostat setting.

• If you cannot open the freezer door immediately after closing it, al­low 1-2 minutes for the negative pressure to compensate, and try
again to open the door.

The storage time for frozen products depends on their quality before
freezing when fresh, and on the storage temperature. The following stor­age periods are recommended when the temperature of -18°C or lower
is maintained:

Products Months

Beef 6-8
Veal 3-6

Giblets 1-2

Pork 3-6

Poultry 6-8

Eggs 3-6

Fish 3-6

Vegetables 10-12

Fruit 10-12

Do not store frozen food in rapid cooling chamber. Ice cubes can be pre­pared and stored in this chamber.

USING THE REFRIGERATOR
EFFICIENTLY

Practical everyday tips

• Do not place fridges or freezers next to radiators, heaters, stoves or
in direct sunlight.

• Make sure that air vents are not covered up and clean the dust o
them once or twice a year.

• Select the right temperature: 6 to 8°C in your refrigerator and -18°C

in your freezer is sucient.

• When on holiday, turn up the temperature in your fridge.

• Only open your fridge or freezer when necessary. It helps if you know
what food each contains and where it is located. Return food to the
fridge or freezer as soon as possible after you have used it so that it
does not warm up too much.

• Wipe the inside of your fridge regularly with a cloth soaked in a mild
detergent. Appliances which are not self-defrosting will require regu­lar defrosting. Do not allow frost layers thicker than 10 mm to form.

• Keep the seal around the door clean, otherwise it will not shut prop­erly. Always replace broken seals.

Understanding the stars

Temperature is at least -6°C; sucient to store frozen food

for about a week. Drawers or compartments marked with

one star used to be a feature of (mostly) cheaper fridges.

Food can be stored at -12°C or below for 1-2 weeks without
losing its taste. Not suitable for freezing food.

This rating is mainly used to store foods at -18°C or below.
Can also be used to freeze up to 1 kilogram of fresh food.

This appliance is suitable for storing foods at -18°C or be­low and freezing larger quantities of fresh foods.

- 25 -

Practical tips

Due to the natural circulation of the air in the appliance, there are dif­ferent temperature zones in the refrigerator chamber.

• The coldest area is directly above the vegetables drawers. Use this
area for all delicate and highly perishable food e.g.:

- Fish, meat, poultry

- Sausage products, ready meals

- Dishes or baked goods containing eggs or cream

- Fresh dough, cake mixtures

- Pre-packed vegetable and other fresh food with a label stating it should

be kept at a temperature of approx 4OC.

• The warmest area is in the top section of the door. Use this for storing
butter and cheese.

Food that should not be stored in a refrigerator

• Not all food is suitable for storing in the refrigerator, particularly:

- Fruit and vegetables which are sensitive to cold, such as bananas,

avocado, papaya, passion fruit, aubergines, peppers, tomatoes and cu­cumbers.

- Fruit which is not yet ripe

- Potatoes

Warning:

Example of storing the food - see gure 12.

DEFROSTING, WASHING AND
MAINTENANCE

Never clean the product’s casing or plastic parts using solvents or strong,

abrasive detergents (e.g. washing powders or creams)! Use mild liquid

detergents and soft cloths only. Do not use sponges.

Defrosting the fridge***

• Frost settles on the rear wall of the fridge chamber. It is removed
automatically. During the defrosting, the condensate, which contains
contaminants may clog the opening in the through. Should it occur,

carefully unclog the opening with the cleaning plug (g. 13).

• The appliance operates in cycles: it refrigerates (then the frost set­tles on the rear wall), and defrosts (water ows down the rear wall)

• Disconnect the appliance from the mains before cleaning by remov-

ing the plug from the mains socket or switching o the fuse. Prevent

water from penetrating the control panel or the light.

• Do not use defrosting aerosols. They may cause the formation of an
explosive mixture, or contain solvents which may damage the plastic
components of the appliance and even be harmful to health.

• Make sure the water used for cleaning does not ow into the evapo­ration container through the discharge opening.

• The whole appliance, except for the door gasket must be cleaned
with a mild cleaning detergent. The door gasket should be cleaned
with water and wiped dry.

• Wash all the accessories (vegetable containers, door shelves, glass
shelves, etc.).

Defrosting the freezer**

• It is recommended to combine defrosting the appliance with washing
it.

• Excessive accumulation of ice on the freezing areas impairs the ap­pliance’s freezing capacity and increases the energy consumption.

• Defrost the appliance at least once or twice a year. In case of a higher
ice build-up, defrosting must be carried out more frequently.

• If there is food in the freezer, set the knob to the max. position about
4 hours before the planned defrosting. This will ensure the possibility
of storing the food at the ambient temperature for a longer time.

• After taking the food out of the freezer, put it in a container, wrap it
with several layers of paper, a blanket and store it at a cool place.

• The defrosting operation should last as short as possible. Long stor­age of food at the ambient temperature shortens their shelf life.

- 27 -

Defrost the freezer chamber following steps:**

• Switch of the appliance using the control panel and pull the plug out
from the socket..

• Open the door and remove the food from the freezer.

• Depending on the model, pull out the drainage tube located in the
bottom of the freezer compartment and place a suitable vessel un­derneath.

• Leave the door open, this will speed up the defrost process. Addi-

tionally, a pot with hot water (not boiling) may be placed inside the

freezer compartment.

• Wash the interior of the freezer and wipe it dry.

• Switch on the appliance as per the relevant point in the manual.

Automatic fridge defrosting****

The fridge chamber has been equipped with an automatic defrosting
function. However, frost may settle on the rear wall of the fridge cham­ber. This happens usually, when large quantities of fresh food products
are stored in the fridge.

Automatic fridge defrosting****

The freezer chamber has been equipped with an automatic defrosting

function (no-frost). The food is frozen in the cooled circulation air, and

the moisture from the freezer chamber is discharged outside. As a result,
no ice and frost is produced in the freezer and the products do not freeze
on each other.

Washing the fridge and freezer chambers manually****

It is recommended to wash the fridge and freezer chambers at least once
a year. This prevents the formation of bacteria and bad odours. Switch

o the appliance, using button (1), remove the food from the chambers

and wash them using water with a mild detergent. Then, wipe the cham­bers dry with a cloth.

Taking out and putting in the shelves*****

Slide the shelf out, then slide it in as much as possible so that its clamp

could t the guide groove (g. 15).

Taking out and putting in the door shelf*****

Lift the door shelf, remove it and put it back from the top into its required

position (g. 16).

WARNING! You must not put an electric heater, a heating fan or a hair
dryer into the freezer by any means.

Certain sounds can be heard during normal use of the refrigerator, which

do not aect its correct operation.

Sounds, which can be easily prevented:

• noise caused by the appliance which is not level - adjust the position

with the adjustable turn-in front feet. Alternatively, place pads made

of soft material under the rear rollers, especially when the appliance
is placed on tiles.

• touching the adjacent piece of furniture - move the refrigerator away.

• creaking of the drawers or shelves - take out and put back the drawer
or shelf.

• sounds of clinking bottles - move bottles apart.

Sounds heard during normal use are mainly due to operation of the ther-

mostat, compressor (switching on) and cooling system (thermal expan­sion and contraction of the radiator caused by ow of the cooling agent).
