Owner’s Manual Guide for the Refrigerator
Before using the Refrigerator:
Before plugging the Refrigerator make sure that both the voltage and the frequency of
the current supply are convenient to the usage of the appliance (Voltage and
Frequency of the appliance are indicated on the outside packing carton and on the
name plate at the back of the appliance)
Make sure that the place where you install the Refrigerator is dry, well ventilated and
not exposed to direct sunlight
Adjust the leveling of the Refrigerator using the leveling screws in order for the
appliance to be slightly inclined backward
Keep a distance of minimum 15 cm between the Refrigerator and the surrounding
walls or other appliances
It is important not to plug the Refrigerator to electricity before 4 hours from arrival to
the house
It is recommended to wait for another 4 hours after plugging the Refrigerator before
placing the food
Temperature Adjustment:
The thermostat box inside the refrigerator cabinet is used to adjust the temperature of the
refrigerator and freezers compartments to the desired level
It is advisable to keep the thermostat on level “1” or “2” in the summer to avoid
formation of ice due to the high intensity of humidity in the air while keeping the
thermostat on level “3” or “4” in winter. Levels “5” and above are to be used in
special cases and for short period of times if super cooling is required
In case of formation of thick layer of ice at the back of the refrigerator compartment,
adjust the thermostat to position “0” till ice is totally defrosted
Ice Defrosting:
The Refrigerator you own is designed to automatically defrost ice that can form at the
back of the compartment. Heat generated from the compressor is used to evaporate
water caused by the defrosted ice
In some rare cases and due to high intensity of humidity in the air, thick layer of ice
can be formed at the back of the refrigerator. In this case, adjust the thermostat to
position “0” till the ice is totally defrosted
To reduce the formation of ice inside the cabinet, be sure to pack well the food and
minimize the opening of the Refrigerator doors
It is mandatory to unplug the Refrigerator before the ice defrosting process
Do not use an electric heater to assist defrosting
After finishing the ice defrosting process, wait for four hours after plugging the
Refrigerator before loading the food
General Recommendations :
The best temperature for food storage for long periods is –18ºC
Avoid placing hot food in the Refrigerator

Before cleaning, always unplug the Refrigerator. Do not use caustic or abras ive agents
or soap for cleaning
The compressor and the condenser should be freed of dust once a year with a brush or
vacuum cleaner

content from direct contact with cold air
In case of power failure, the Refrigerator you own is designed to preserve the low
temperature for the longest period of time taking into consideration to avoid frequent
opening of the Refrigerator doors
