We Care for the Environment

• Our products use environmentally friendly packaging, which can be either recycled or disposed of in an environmentally friendly manner. To this end, individual packaging materials are clearly marked.

• These instructions are printed either on recycled paper or chlorine free bleached paper.

• When your appliance finally wears out, please try not to burden the environment with it; call your nearest authorised service agent. (See Disposing of the Worn Out Appliance).

Tips for Energy Saving

• 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. This is especially important if you have an upright model.

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

Instructions for Use2

• Turn the thermostat knob from higher to lower setting as soon as possible (depends on how loaded the appliance is, ambient temperature...)

• Never use continuous operation unless unnecessarily required; switch the operation mode selection switch to the setting for automatic operation as soon as possible.

• Before freezing 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 3-5 mm thick.

Important

• If the gasket is damaged or if it turns out that the sealing is poor, the energy consumptionis substantially higher. To restore efficiency, replace the gasket.

• The condenser on the rear wall should be always clean, free of dust or any impurities.

• Always consider instructions stated in sections Positioning and Energy Saving Tips, otherwise the energy consumption is substantially higher.

• If you've 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 the children to lock themselves in the appliance and suffocate.

• Mind to connect the appliance correctly to the mains supply (see Connection to the Mains Supply).

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

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

• Never try to eat frozen food (bread, fruit, vegetables), because you may get frostbites.

• Carefully check the foods for color and smell and if you are in doubt about their quality, throw them away because they may be spoiled and therefore dangerous to eat.

• Shear-type hinge (only on some models) enables automatic door closing at the opening angle of 20°. On account of strong springs take care when handling the door.

• The bag with instructions also contains squares and sponges, intended for installation of integrated appliance with shear-type hinge, as well as plastic caps for covering of hollow spots on walls inside the appliance.

• Disconnect the appliance from the mains before repairing (only a qualified technician should repair it) and 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. Use only enclosed tools or tools recommended by the manufacturer.

• For the sake of environment protection - be careful not to damage the rear wall of the appliance (the condenser unit or the tubes for example when moving the appliance) or any part of the refrigerating system inside the appliance.

• The refrigerating system of the appliance is filled with refrigerant and oil, so when the appliance is damaged, handle it with care and dispose it of in compliance with environmental protecting precautions. (See We Care for the Environment).

• Heating element incorporated in the appliance, all around the rim, is controlled by the operation of the compressor and it prevents the door gasket to freeze on to the freezer compartment.

• When activating the Super function, the red light may turn on. This is normal condition and there is no need for warning.

• If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer or his service agent or a qualified person in order to avoid hazard.

• The rating plate is in the interior or on the rear wall of the appliance.

Storing Time During Power Supply Interruption

Avoid opening the freezer in case of failure or power supply interruption! In case the interruption is extended over longer period of time (16 hours for ZOI 0721/6, 10/21 hours for ZOI 1221/6 ZODI 1121/6, 15 hours for ZODI 1121/6 depending of

Placing and Installation

appliances with or without a chill storage batery), take food out of the freezer and use it, or make sure it remains well cooled (perhaps you have an extra appliance).

Disposing of the Worn Out Appliance

• When your appliance finally wears out, dispose it of. If the appliance has a lock, break it, in order to prevent eventual accidents (danger of children get locked inside the appliance).

• The refrigerating system of the appliance is filled with refrigerant and insulating substances which should be separately treated and processed. Call your nearest authorised service agent or specialised servicing centre. If you don't find one, contact your local authorities or your distributor. Be careful not to damage the tubes on the rear wall of the appliance (danger of pollution).

Choosing the Right Place

Place the appliance in a dry and regularly ventilated room. Allowed ambient temperature depends on the model (class) of the appliance and is stated on the rating plate of the appliance. Never place the appliance near heat emitting devices (e.g. cooker, radiator, water heater and similar devices) and do not expose it to direct sunlight. The appliance should be positioned at least 3 cm away from the electric or gas cooker and at least 30 cm away from the oil or coal stove. If this is not possible, use an appropriate insulation. Behind the appliance there should be free space at least 200 cm² wide and above the appliance the high kitchen units should be at least 5 cm away from the appliance in order to assure adequate ventilation of the condenser unit. See separate installation instructions for correct siting of the appliance.

Class Ambient temparature

SN (sub-normal) from + 10°C to + 32°C N (normal) from + 16°C to + 32°C ST (sub-tropical) from + 16°C to + 38°C T (tropical) from + 16°C to + 43°C

Connection to Power Supply

Connect the appliance with the cable and plug to the power supply socket outlet with a ground terminal (safety socket). Required nominal voltage and frequency are indicated in the rating plate. The connection to the mains supply and earthing have to be made according to current standards and regulations. The appliance resists temporary voltage tolerance up to -6 to +6%.

Electrical connection

For your safety please read the following information

Warning: This appliance must be earthed.

The appliance must be connected to a 220-240 volts 50 cycle AC supply by means of a three pin socket, suitably earthed and should be protected by a 13 amp fuse in the plug or a15 amp fuse in the consumer unit. The appliance is supplied with a moulded 13 amp 3 pin mains plug fitted with a 13amp fuse. Should the fuse require replacement, it must be replaced with a fuse rated at 13 amp and approved to BS1362. The plug contains a removable fuse cover that must be refitted when the fuse is replaced. In the event of the fuse cover being lost or damaged, the plug must not be used until a replacement cover has been obtained. If the

Instructions for Use4

moulded mains plug is unsuitable for the socket outlet in your home or is removed for any other reason, then the fuse should be removed and the cut off plug disposed of safely to prevent the hazard of electric shock. There is a danger of electric shock if the cut off plug is inserted into any 13 amp socket outlet.

How to w ire a 13 amp plug.

Important

The wires in the mains lead on this appliance are coloured in accordance with the following code: Green and Yellow - Earth Blue – Neutral Brown – Live As the colours may not correspond with the markings identifying the terminals in your plug proceed as follows. The green and yellow wire must be connected to the terminal in the plug which is marked with

the letter E or with the earth symbol coloured green and yellow. The blue wire must be connected to the terminal marked N or coloured black. The brown wire must be connected to the terminal marked L or coloured red.
