Cleaning and Maintenance).
• In case the interior accessories are not correctly placed, rearrange them as
described in chapter "Description of the Appliance".

The appliance should be professionally mounted by qualified technician and
instructions are for his use only.
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 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.
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).
• Turn the thermostat knob from higher to lower setting as soon as possible
(depends on how loaded the appliance is, ambient temperature...).
• Before loading the appliance with fresh food, make sure it was cooled to
ambient temperature. (except for the soup)
• Ice and frost layer increase energy consumption, so do clean the appliance
as soon as the layer is 3-5 mm thick.
,QVWUXFWLRQVIRU8VH
• If the gasket is damaged or if it turns out that the sealing is poor, the
energy consumption is 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.
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 mains supply. (see:
Connecting to the Mains Supply).
• If the food has strange smell or colour, 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 and before replacing
the light bulb.
• Do not defrost the appliance with other electric devices (hair dryer etc.) and
never scrape the frost layer with sharp objects. 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. Do not use sharp object for defrosting the appliance. Use only
enclosed tools or tools recommended by the manufacturer.
• 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).
• The rating plate is inside the appliance or outside on the rear wall.
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).

Placing and Installation
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.
Class Ambient temparature
SN (sub-normal) from + 10°C to + 32°C
N (normal) from + 16°C to + 32°C
ST (sub-tropical) from + 18°C to + 38°C
T (tropical) from + 18°C to + 43°C
Never place the appliance near heat emitting devices (e.g. cooker, radiator,
water heater or 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.
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 on 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 -15 to +10 %.

Description of the Appliance
Shelf (1)
(the number of shelves depend on model)
Shelf can be optionally placed on the guides inside the appliance. It is
protected against pulling out. If you want to remove it, slightly lift up the back
part and pull it out.
Glass shelves (some models only have them) are protected with plastic
spacers. Before pulling the shelf out, spacers must be moved towards you.
Spacers can be also removed, however, it is better to keep them for any later
transport.
Quickly perishable food should be stored on the back i.e. the coldest part of
the shelves.

Defrost Water Outlet (2)
The interior of the refrigerator is cooled with cooling plate incorporated in the
rear wall. Under the plate there is a channel and an outlet for defrost water.
Regularly check the defrost water outlet and the channel, because they
should never be clogged (as for example with food rests). If clogged, use a
plastic straw and clean it.
Fruit and Vegetable Container (3)
The container is on the bottom of the appliance under the glass shelf. It
provides adequate humidity which has favourable effect on fruit and
vegetables stored in it (less dehydration).
Door Liner
The door liner consists of various shelves or holders used for storing eggs,
cheese, butter and yogurt as well as other smaller packages, tubes, cans
etc.
The lower shelf is used for storing bottles.
Illumination in the Interior of the Refrigerator
The light for illuminating the interior of the appliance is on, when the door is
opened. The operation of the light does not depend on the position of the
thermostat knob.
