Unplug the power cord. Remove the screws under the cover. Lift the cover in direction (1), and then pull it out in

direction (2).

Install the bulb.

Notes on refrigeration

Let warm foods and drinks cool down to room temperature before putting them in the refrigerator compartment.

Pack and seal foods before storing them. This prevents drying and odour dissipation.

Wash and dry off fresh foods before storing them.

Pack the food into portions suitable for your household. Place the foods that will be consumed the soonest towards the front so as not to leave the appliance door open longer than necessary.

Do not overstock the refrigerator. Be sure to leave space between foods and between the foods and the interior compartment walls.

Tips on refrigeration

Remove the leaves of root vegetables to prevent them from absorbing the nutrients.

Items not requiring refrigeration: Onions, peppers, garlic, ginger.

Thawing frozen foods inside the refrigerator helps conserve energy.

Items not suitable for refrigeration: Gourds, melons, bananas, pineapple. Refrigeration promotes their decomposition. Do refrigerate unripe fruits.

Caution: Do not use the egg tray as an ice cube tray and never place it in the freezer or Superfrost area to prevent it from cracking.

Freezer compartment

Use the freezer compartment for long-term food storage

A low temperature in the freezer compartment is necessary for long-term food storage. Do not exceed the maximum length of storage indicated on the package.

Removing and cleaning glass shelves

First, lift the rear of the shelf in direction (1), and then pull the shelf out in direction (2). Finally, tilt the shelf in direction (3) and remove it once the door is open 90º.

Interior light and replacement of bulb

Bulb specifications: 220-240 V / 40 W Socket: E27 (Do not use a replacement bulb of more than 40 W.)

Replacing the bulb

Pull out the power plug or neutralise the

fuse.

Lift the cover in direction (1), and then

pull it out in direction (2).

Twist the bulb anticlockwise, and then

remove it. Install a new bulb of equal specifications.

Re-install the cover.

Adjusting and cleaning bottle rack

Hold both sides of the bottle rack and pull it out in directions (1) and (2). Clean the bottle rack, and then re-place it or adjust its position.

Caution: Frozen foods (such as ice cream) should not be placed in the bottle rack but rather inside the freezer compartment to avoid that they spoil as a result of being exposed to the temperature changes from opening and closing the door.

Notes on freezing

Let warm foods and drinks cool down to room temperature before putting them in the freezer compartment.

Package the food before freezing it. The packages should be dry to prevent their sticking together. Use only freezer-compatible packing material; this should be strong, taste-neutral, air- and watertight so as to minimize taste contamination and loss of quality.

Pack the food into portions of up to 2.5 kg suitable for your household. As a result, the portions will freeze faster and the quality after thawing remain optimal for preparation.

Always write the content and freezing date on the packing, and do not exceed the recommended length of storage so as to prevent loss of quality.

Remove only the required amount to be thawed. Thawed foods must never be frozen again.

Never place more fresh food in the freezer at one time than the maximum freezing capacity.

Starting up the ice maker and dispenser

Preparations before starting up the ice maker and dispenser

The ice maker can be connected either directly to a water supply line if fitted with a filter (option A) or to a drinking water container if fitted with a water pump (option B).

Cut the water line to the right length to prevent it from kinking. The recommended maximum length for the water line is 12 m. The pressure drop resulting from an excessively long water line could adversely affect the ice cube maker capacity.

Keep the water line away from heat sources.

The water supply line should be installed and checked by professionals.

When calling for refrigerated water for the first time, keep pressure on the dispenser lever for one minute several times until water flows out, in order to allow the water tank inside the appliance to fill up. Be sure not to hold the dispenser lever pressed for too long, otherwise the water valve may overheat.

Option A:

Water supply line installation The pressure of the cold water supplied to the ice maker should be within 1.5-8.5 bar. It is recommended to use drinking water for producing ice cubes since the filter does not sterilise bacteria.

Option B:

The water pump must be connected to its own outlet and properly grounded. Removal or modification of the water pump and modification or repair of the water supply line by unauthorised persons are not permissible. To prevent fire, do not store or use flammable products such as fuel near the water pump. The water pump is to be used solely with room temperature water; it is not suitable for use with chemicals, fruit juice or other grainy drinks, coffee or other hot liquids. If the water pump will not be used for en extended period of time, pull out its power plug. Periodically check the water tank to make sure that the water level is sufficient. Do not push, shake or knock the water pump. Place the water pump and drinking water container on a sturdy and level surface. After opening the small lid of the drinking water container, protect the opening with a dust cover. Guide one end of a hose to the bottom of the container and connect the other end to the water pump inlet (indicated by an INLET symbol). Connect one end of another hose to the water pump outlet (indicated by an OUTLET symbol) and the other end to the water valve inlet under the back of the refrigerator.

Ice maker and dispenser operation

Precautions

Do not connect the ice maker water line when the temperature is below 0 ºC, otherwise the water line may freeze Open the valve and flush the water line to check the line connections for possible leaks. Close the valve again when the water is clean and clear. The ice maker does not become operational until the temperature has reached or gone under -15 °C. (Do not consume the first batch of ice cubes.) After setting up the appliance, be sure to check that the water supply line is properly positioned so that it will not be pinched or damaged. The ice maker must be installed by an authorized representative. The ice maker must be connected to a standard cold water pipe. If the water dispenser indicator does not work, contact customer service or a qualified professional for repair.

Ice maker operation

Each cycle produces eight ice cubes. The ice cube production capacity depends on variations of the ambient temperature and how frequently the door is opened.

Caution: Let the appliance operate at least 24 hours before starting ice cube production

Do not consume the first ice cubes after starting up the appliance for the first time or following a long period of inoperation. Arrange the ice cubes manually to make sure that the container has been filled. A few of the eight ice cubes produced in one ice maker cycle may stick together.
