Daewoo MCBR170B, MCBR170S, MCBR170W, MCBR270B, MCBR270S Instructions Manual [es]

Before Putting Into Use

•Before connecting the appliance to the power supply, let it stand for about 2 hours, which will reduce a possibility of malfunctions in the cooling system due to transport handling.

•Clean the appliance, and be thorough, especially in the interior (See Cleaning and Maintenance).

•In case the interior accessories are not correctly placed, rearrange them as described in chapter “NAME OF THE PARTS”.

Instructions for Use

These instruction for use are intended for the user. They describe the appliance and its correct and safe use. They were prepared for various types/modes of refrigerators therefore you may find in it description of some functions and accesories that your appliance does not have.

Tips for Energy Savings

•Try not to open the door too often, especially when the weather is wet and hot. Once you open the door, mind to close it as soon as possible.

•Every now and then check if the appliance is sufficiently ventilated (adequate air circulation behind the appliance).

•Set thermostat from higher to lower settings as soon as possible (depends on how loaded the appliance is ambient temperature etc).

•Before loading the appliance with packages of fresh foods, make sure they are cooled to ambient temperature.

•Ice and frost layer increase energy consumption, so do clean the appliance as soon as the layer is 1/8” thick.

Important

•If you have bought this appliance to replace an old one equipped with a lock that cannot be opened from inside (lock, bolt), make sure that the lock is broken. This will make it impossible for children to lock themselves inside the appliance and suffocate.

•The appliance must be correctly connected to the power supply. (See: How to install)

•Do not touch the cooled surfaces while the appliance operates, especially not with wet hands, because the skin may stick to the cold surfaces.

•Do not freeze bottles containing liquid, especially not soft drinks, such as mineral water, sparkling wine, beer, cola etc., because liquid expands during freezing and the glass bottle is very likely to blow up.

•Do not eat frozen food (bread, fruit, vegetables), because you can get frostbites.

•If the food has strange smell or color, throw it away, because it is very likely that it is spoiled and therefore dangerous to eat.

•Disconnect the appliance from the power supply before repairing it (only a qualified technician should repair it), before cleaning.

•Do not defrost the appliance with other electric devices (hair dryer etc.) and never scrape the ice or frost layer with sharp tools.

•The rating plate is inside the appliance or outside on the rear wall.

DANGER: Risk of child entrapment. Before you throw away your old refrigerator of freezer: Remove all shelving so that children can not climb on.

HOW TO OPERATE

Starting your new Refrigerator

1.Clean the refrigerator thoroughly. Wipe the outside with a soft dry cloth, the interior with a clean moist cloth.

2.Insert the power supply cord into the socket.

3.Turn the thermostat dial to “7”. Close the door and let the refrigerator operate for 15-20 minutes.

Temperature control

To control the internal temperature, adjust the thermostat dial. The dial is numbered from 1-7. Number 1 is the warmest setting, number 7 the coldest.

The dial may be set any place on the scale. It does not have to be set exactly on a number. To make ice cubes in the freezer compartment, adjust the thermostat to the coldest setting.

NOTE: Wait 3-5 minutes before restarting if you unplug the refrigerator. The unit may fail to operate properly if restarted too quickly.

How to defrost

MCBR170B/MCBR170S/MCBR170W/MCBR270B/MCBR270S/MCBR270W

Defrost the refrigerator when the frost accumulated on the evaporator is about 5mm (1/5inch) thick.

Set the thermostat dial to “OFF”. Remove frozen or perishable foods. keep drip tray in place. Defrosting usually takes a few hours. To defrost quickly remove all foods from the refrigerator and leave the door open. Never use a knife or other metal instrument to scrape ice/frost from the evaporator. After defrosting, empty water from drip tray and return the thermostat dial to the desired position.

MCBR445B/MCBR445S/MCBR445W

Just push the defrost button to defrost refrigerator without any change of the thermostat dial. When the frost accumulated on the evaporator melts, refrigerator works without any additional operations. During defrosting, keep door closed and drip tray in place.

POWER CORD REPLACEMENT

If the refrigerator’s power cord is damaged, have it replaced by a qualified repair agent.

WHAT TO DO...

When the fridge is not in use for a prolonged period:

•Remove the power plug from the power point.

•Remove all contents from the fridge.

•Dry the interior and leave the door open for a few days.

When you wish to move the fridge:

•Secure all movable parts and contents. (Package them separately if necessary.)

•Transport the fridge only in an upright position. In any other position you may damage the compressor.

Before calling service, please follow the checklist below. This may save you an expensive service call.

If the refrigerator seems too warm inside:

•Check that the door has not been opened too frequently or for too long.

•Check that the interior circulation is not obstructed by having too many goods stored. (The fridge is overloaded)

•Did you store anything hot, without first cooling it to room temperature?

•Is there sufficient clearance around all sides and above the fridge?

If the fridge starts making any unusual noises:

•Is it wobbling? Re-level it and check if it now operates normally.

•Have any objects fallen behind the fridge? If so, remove them and check if operation is now normal.

•Are any containers inside the fridge vibrating or resonating? If so, rearrange them then check to see if operation has returned to normal.

WARNING-Improper use of the grounding plug can result in a risk of electric shock. If it is necessary to use an extension cord, use only a 3-wire extension cord that has a 3-blade grounding plug and a 3-slot receptacle that will accept the plug on the appliance. The marked rating of the extension cord should be AC115-120V, 10A, or more. If a grounding adapter is used, make sure the receptacle box is fully grounded.
