result of opening/closing the product
door during operation, condensation
on the door/body shelves and the
glass containers is normal
17
EN
5 Using your refrigerator
Setting the operating temperature
the vegetable compartment.The
interior temperature also depends on
ambient temperature, the frequency
with which the door is opened and
the amount of foods 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.
Cooling
The operating temperature is regulated
by the temperature control.
Food storage
Warm
(Or)Min.
1 = Lowest cooling 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 device by adjusting
the thermostat knob to “0” position.
Please note that there will be different
temperatures in the cooling area.The
coldest region is immediately above
Cold
5
Max.
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 foods and beverages to cool
to room temperature prior to placing
them in the refrigerator.
Attention
Store concentrated alcohol only
standing upright and tightly closed.
Attention
Do not store explosive substances or
containers with lfammable propellant
gases (canned cream, spray cans etc.)
in the device. There is a danger of
explosion.
18
EN
Defrosting of the appliance
Attention
The fridge compartment defrosts
automatically. The thawing water
lfows through the drain channel into a
collection container at the rear of the
device.If the fresh food section goes
thru a cycle defrost it is normal to see
the formation of water droplets (frozen)
on the evaporator if the water has not
completely fallen of the evaporator.
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 pre-frozen food.
Please refer to the recommendations
given on the packaging of your food.
Attention
Do not freeze ifzzy drinks, as the
bottle may burst when the liquid in
it is frozen.Be careful with frozen
products such as colored 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.
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
ifnd the freezer door dififcult 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.
Defrosting of the appliance
The freezer compartment defrosts
automatically.Warnings!The fan inside
the freezer compartment circulates
cold air. Never insert any object
through the guard. Do not allow
children to play with the freezer fan.
Never store products that contain
inlfammable propellant gas(e.g.
dispensers, spray cans etc.) or
explosive substances.Don’t cover the
shelves with any protective materials,
which may obstruct air circulation.
Do not allow children to play with the
appliance or tamper with the controls.
Do not obstruct the freezer fan guard
to ensure that you obtain the best
possible performance from your
appliance.
