Proper use of the appliance, adequately packed
food, correct temperature and hygienic precautions
produce substantial impact on the quality of stored
food.
Always respect the best before date, printed on the
packaging.
Food to be stored in the refrigerator should be
properly packed as to prevent emission and/or
reception of moisture and odors.
Never store infl ammable, volatile or explosive
substances.
Beverages with high alcohol percentage shall be
stored in tightly sealed bottles in vertical position.
Some organic solutions like volatile oils in lemon or
orange peel, acids in butter etc. can cause damage
in prolonged contact with plastic surfaces or gaskets
for longer period of time they can cause accelerated
aging of the plastic material.
Unpleasant odor inside the refrigerator is a sign that
something is wrong with food or that your refrigerator
needs cleaning (see chapter Cleaning).
If you plan a longer absence, make sure you removed
quickly perishable articles of food from the appliance
before you leave.
Equipment depends on the model.
• Shelves can be optionally placed on the guides inside the
appliance. They are protected against pulling out. To remove
the shelf, slightly lift up the back part and pull it out. Quickly
perishable food should be stored on the back i.e. the coldest
part of the shelves.

• Fan (optional design depending on the model - under
the ceiling or hid beneath the rear panel) improves even
distribution of temperature and decreases dew upon storage
racks.
• Cool water dispenser (available only in certain models on the
exterior side of the door) is used for pouring cool water without
opening the refrigerator door.
Installation: take the tap with pipes from the attached bag and
cork the plastic water bottle (1,5 l). Remove the bag from the
pipe coupled to the pump and connect it with the tap pipe by
pressing one pipe into the other (minimum coverage 10 mm).
The system is suitable only for water, and it is not suitable
for aromatized water or any other beverage. Place the
plastic bottle anywhere on the shelf under the pump.
Pouring: press the glass towards the dispenser wall and
activate by pressing upwards. Periodically empty the dripped
water from the receptacle underneath the dispenser.

Approximate storage
time of fresh foods
Page 18
142420
The ZeroZone drawer provides storage of wide selection of fresh
food approximately three times longer than in the traditional
refrigerator. Food remains fresh for long time and it preserves
its taste and nutritive ingredients. It reduces decay and loss
of mass, so fruit and vegetables are more fresh and natural.
Storage temperature is around 0°C (preset). Temperature may
vary between -2°C and +3°C, depending on the temperature
variation within the refrigerator. If the temperature of the room,
in which the appliance is installed, is lower than 16°C, the
recommended setting of refrigerating compartment is 4°C or
lower. For optimum operation the drawer must be completely
closed.The drawer has pull-out guides and additional separate
compartments (depending on the model) for the separate storage
of food and usage of space according to the individual nutrition
habits.
• Moisture level in the drawer depends upon the moisture of
stored food, and on the frequency of opening the drawer.
• When you buy food check its freshness: quality and durability
of food depends on it.
• Store non-wrapped animal or vegetable food separately, or
wrap it in suitable packages. Be careful to prevent touching
of different types of meat. They should be packed and stored
separately to avoid bacterial decomposition in case meat turns
foul.
• Approximately 30-60 minutes prior use remove food from
the drawer to let its aroma and taste develop at ambient
temperature.
• Food sensitive to low temperatures is not suitable for storage
in the ZeroZone drawer: pineapple, avocado, bananas,
olives, potatoes, eggplants, cucumber, beans, paprika,
melons, sweet melons, pumpkins.

The appliance needs no special defrosting procedure, because
ice deposited at the inner back wall is defrosted automatically.
Ice deposited on the inner back wall during the compressor
operation is defrosted when the compressor stops operating,
and condensed water drops are drained through the outlet in the
inner back wall into the drain pan situated above the compressor
where it evaporates.
For appliances without the ZeroZone drawer:
In case of excessive ice deposits at the inner rear wall of the
refrigerator (3-5 mm), switch the appliance off by pressing the
ON/OFF button and defrost it manually.
Automatic defrosting
Prior any cleaning attempt disconnect the appliance from
the mains (pull the power cord from the mains wall outlet).
Special antibacterial protection in top layer of inner walls
prevents multiplication of bacteria and maintains the interior
clean and germ free. Make sure to remove traces of any
cleansing agents you had been using.
• Clean the exterior of the appliance with water and liquid
detergent.
• Do not use abrasive or aggressive agents (such as stainless
steel cleansers) for cleaning of plastic and coated surfaces as
you can damage them.
• Clean coated surfaces with soft cloth and alcohol based
cleansing agent (for example glass cleaners).
• Wash the interior of the appliance with liquid detergent and
lukewarm water, mixed with a little vinegar.
- For appliances without the ZeroZone drawer:
Groove and drain outlet located below the cooling panel at
the rear wall collect the drained water, so they must not be
clogged (with food particles, for example). Make sure you
inspect them periodically and clean if necessary (use plastic
straw to free the outlet hole).
• The condenser on the rear wall must always be clean and
free of dust or kitchen fumes deposits, therefore clean the dust
periodically with non-metallic brush or vacuum cleaner.
• Clean also the drip pan above the compressor. If you
removed the pan, please make sure you replace it to the same
position, and check that it is in completely horizontal position!
• Ice and/or frost deposits exceeding 3-5 mm increase energy
consumption, so you need to remove them regularly. Do not
use sharp pointed objects, solvents or sprays.
• After cleaning switch the appliance on and reload the food.

Fault: Cause/Remedy
The appliance does not operate
after connection to the mains:
• Check if there is power in the socket and if the appliance is
switched on.
Cooling system operates
continuously without intermittent
stoppages:
• Ambient temperature too high.
• Frequent opening of the door, door open too long.
• Door not closed properly (particle between door gasket,
sagged door, check gasket sealing, etc...).
• Excessive quantity of fresh food inserted at once.
• Check air circulation for suffi cient cooling of the compressor,
and clean the condenser.
• Intensive cooling option is on.
Excessive ice formation at
the rear interior wall of the
refrigerator:
• Frequent opening of the door, door open too long.
• Inserting hot food in the refrigerator.
• Food is touching the rear interior panel.
• Bad door sealing; clean or replace the gasket if dirty or
damaged.
Water dripping from the
appliance:
• Drain outlet is clogged, drain water drips past the collection
groove.
• Clean the clogged outlet using plastic straw. For models
fi tted with the ZeroZone drawer call service center.
• Thaw thick ice deposits manually (see chapter Defrosting)
Sound alarm:
• Frequent opening of the door, door open too long.
• Door not closed properly (particle between door gasket,
sagged door, check gasket sealing, etc...).
• Prolonged power failure.
• Excessive quantity of fresh food inserted at once.
• Refrigerator sensor (A) is crammed with fresh food. Free the
sensor and allow air to circulate around it.
Diffi cult door opening: • If you attempt to open the immediately closed door of
the cooler you may experience resistance. This happens
because certain quantity of cold air escapes from the
appliance through the open door and is replaced by warm
ambient air. Cooling of such air creates negative pressure
(vacuum) and suction, which prevents easy opening of the
door. Situation is normalized after a few minutes (5-10), and
you can open the door with ease.
Troubleshooting guide

The refrigerator - freezer appliances are cooled by the
refrigeration system with a compressor, whose operation may
produce certain noise. The level of such noise depends upon the
location, correct use and age of the appliance.
• After starting the appliance, the operation of the compressor
(the refrigerant fl ow) may be somewhat louder. This does not
mean that something is wrong with the appliance, neither has
it any infl uence on the lifetime of the appliance. Gradually the
noise is reduced and eventually subsides.
• Sometimes the appliance produces unusual and stronger
noise which is rather unusual for the appliance. This noise
is often the consequence of inadequate positioning of the
appliance:
- The appliance should be placed and leveled fi rmly on solid
base.
- It should not touch the wall or adjacent kitchen units
standing next to it.
- Check whether the accessories in the interior of the
appliance are placed correctly in their positions; also check
the bottles, tins and other vessels that might touch each
other and rattle.
