4 Using your refrigerator

The interior temperature also depends on ambient temperature, the frequency with which the door is opened and the amount of food kept inside.

Frequently opening the door causes the interior temperature to rise.

For this reason, it is recommended to close the door again as soon as possible after use.

The operating temperature is regulated by the temperature control.

Warm Cold

1 2 3 4 5

(Or) Min. Max.

1 = Lowest cooling setting (Warmest setting) 5 = Highest cooling setting (Coldest setting)

(Or)

Min. = Lowest cooling setting (Warmest setting) Max. = Highest cooling setting (Coldest setting)

The average temperature inside the fridge should be around +5°C.

Please choose the setting according to the desired temperature.

You can stop operation of your appliance by turning the thermostat knob to “0” position.

Please note that there will be different temperatures in the cooling area.

The coldest region is immediately above the vegetable compartment.

Freezing

Freezing food

The freezing compartment is marked with this symbol.

You can use the appliance for freezing fresh food as well as for storing prefrozen food.

Please refer to the recommendations given on the packaging of your food.

• Attention

Do not freeze fizzy drinks, as the bottle may burst when the liquid in it is frozen.

Be careful with frozen products such

as coloured ice-cubes. Do not exceed the freezing capacity

of your appliance in 24 hours. See the rating label.

In order to maintain the quality of the food, the freezing must be effected as rapidly as possible.

Thus, the freezing capacity will not be exceeded, and the temperature inside the freezer will not rise.

• Attention

Keep the already deep-frozen food

always separated with freshly placed food.

When deep-freezing hot food, the cooling compressor will work until the food is completely frozen. This can temporarily cause excessive cooling of the refrigeration compartment.

If you find the freezer door difficult to open just after you have closed it, don’t worry. This is due to the pressure difference which will equalize and allow the door to open normally after a few minutes.

You will hear a vacuum sound just after closing the door. This is quite normal.

Making ice cubes

Fill the ice-cube tray 3/4 full with water and place it in the freezer.

As soon as the water has turned into ice, you can take out the ice cubes.

Never use sharp objects such as knives or forks to remove the ice cubes. There is a risk of injury!

The frozen food compartment is suitable for the storage of prefrozen food. The recommendation for storage, as stated on the food packaging, should be observed at all times.

Defrosting of the appliance

Excessive build-up of ice will affect the freezing performance of your device.

It is therefore recommended that you defrost your appliance at least twice a year, or whenever the ice build-up exceeds 7 mm.

Defrost your device when there is only little or no food in it.

Take out the deep-frozen food. Wrap the deep-frozen food in several layers of paper, or a blanket, and keep it in a cold place.

Unplug the appliance or switch off the circuit breaker to start the defrosting process.

Take out the accessories (like shelf, drawer etc.) from the appliance and use a suitable container to collect the thawing water.

Let the ice cubes slightly thaw instead, or put the bottom of the tray in hot water for a short moment.

Storing frozen food

The frozen food compartment is marked with symbol.

Use a sponge or a soft cloth to remove thawing water if necessary at the freezing compartment

and frozen food compartment

Keep the door open during defrosting.

For quicker defrosting, place containers with warm water inside the appliance.

Never use electrical devices, defrosting sprays or pointed or sharp-edged objects such as knives or forks to remove the ice.

• Attention

Do not store explosive substances or containers with flammable propellant gases (canned cream, spray cans etc.) in the appliance.

There is a danger of explosion.

Defrosting of the appliance

After the defrosting is done, clean the inside.

Reconnect the appliance to the mains.

Place the frozen food into the drawers and slide the drawers into the freezer.

Cooling

Food storage

The fridge compartment is for the short-term storage of fresh food and drinks.

Store milk products in the intended compartment in the refrigerator.

Bottles can be stored in the bottle

holder or in the bottle shelf of the door.

Raw meat is best kept in a

polyethylene bag in the compartment at the very bottom of the refrigerator.

Allow hot food and beverages to cool to room temperature prior to placing them in the refrigerator.

The fridge compartment defrosts automatically. The thawing water flows through the drain channel into a collection container at the back of the appliance.

During defrosting, water droplets form at the back wall of the fridge due to the evaporation.

If not all of the drops run down, they may freeze again after defrosting

completes. Remove them with a soft

cloth dampened with warm water. Do not use hard or sharp objects.

Check the flow of the thawed water from time to time. It may become blocked occasionally. Clean it with a pipe-cleaner or similar implement.

• Attention

Store concentrated alcohol in a container only standing upright and tightly closed.

5 Maintenance and cleaning

A Never use gasoline, benzene or

similar substances for cleaning purposes.

B We recommend that you unplug the

appliance before cleaning.

• Never use any sharp abrasive

instrument, soap, household cleaner, detergent and wax polish for cleaning.

• Use lukewarm water to clean the

cabinet of your refrigerator and wipe it dry.

• Use a damp cloth wrung out in

a solution of one teaspoon of bicarbonate of soda to one pint of water to clean the interior and wipe it dry.

• If your refrigerator is not going to be

used for a long period of time, unplug the power cable, remove all food, clean it and leave the door ajar.

• Check door seals regularly to ensure

they are clean and free from food particles.

Protection of plastic surfaces

• Do not put the liquid oils or oil-cooked

meals in your refrigerator in unsealed containers as they damage the plastic surfaces of your refrigerator. In case of spilling or smearing oil on the plastic surfaces, clean and rinse the relevant part of the surface at once with warm water.
