Using the Appliance

Putting it into use

Place the accessories into the appliance then plug to the mains socket.

To start the appliance, press the ON/OFF button ("A"). The fridge temperature display ("B") and freezer temperature display ("G") will go on. The alarm light ("M") flashes since the temperature is high. The buzzer sounds. To stop the buzzer, press the alarm reset button ("L").

Note:

The appliance cannot be switched on or off if unplugged, or if there is no power being supplied to it. Following connection to the mains power supply, the appliance returns to the same operating state as before the interruption of main power.

Controlling the temperature, setting

The electronic control interrupts the cooling automatically for more or less time depending on the set ting then restarts it assuring the required temperature.

Temperature of the refrigerator and freezer can by set by buttons "C"-"D" and "H"-"I", respectively. The desired temperature is seen blinking on the respective display.

For everyday use medium setting, i.e. +5 °C in the refrigerator and colder than -18 °C is the freezer is recommended.

Allow the appliance to run for a period of 24 hours whenever the temperature setting is changed. This will allow the temperature to stabilize inside the appliance.

The temperature coming about in the refrigerator is effected by not only the position of the thermostat but the ambient temperature, frequency of door openings and the quantity of food put into it newly, etc.

When the coldest temperature possible is set - in case of increased demand e.g. during heatwaves

- the compressor may operate continually. This does not cause damages to the appliance.

How to use the refrigerator

For adequate cooling developing interior air

circulation is necessary. For this reason you are asked not to cover the air circulation gaps behind the shelves (e.g. with tray etc.).

Do not put hot food into the refrigerator. Allow

it to reach room temperature naturally. In this way the unnnecessary frost building up can be avoided.

Foods can take over odours from each other.

So it is essential to put foods in closed dishes or wrap them in cellophane, aluminium foil, greaseproof paper or cling film before placing them into the refrigerator. This way foods will keep their moisture e.g. vegetables will not dry out after some days.

The Refrigerator

Below is the recommended storage positions for various food types:

1. Ready-cooked foods, fresh meat, cold cuts.

2. Milk, dairy products.

3. Fruits, vegetables, salads.

4. Cheese, butter.

5. Eggs.

6. Yoghurt, sour cream.

7. Small bottles, drinks.

8. Large bottles, drinks.

9. Fish, meat, seafood

Drawer

The drawer is suitable for storing fruit and vegetables.

There is a separator inside the drawer that can be placed in different position to allow for the subdivision best suited to personal needs.

ACTION COOL mode

The ACTION COOL function is suited for quick cooling of large quantities of goods in the refrigerator.

The ACTION COOL function is switched on by pressing the ACTION COOL button ("E").

The yellow light ("F") illuminates. During the time of ACTION COOL the display ("B") shows an "A" letter.

The ACTION COOL function now provides for intensive cooling. A desired temperature of +2 °C is automatically selected.

To exit from the ACTION COOL mode press the "E" button again. Should you not do so, after a while the refrigerator returns to automatic mode.

Air Filter

Your appliance is equipped with a carbon filter behind a flap in the rear wall of the air distributing box.

The filter purifies the air from unwanted odours in the fridge compartment meaning that the storage quality will be further improved.

Note: Always keep the air ventilation flap closed.

Fresh Box

The product equipped with this feature in the fridge part. This compartment is indicated for the best conservation of fresh food like fish, meat, seafood because the temperature is lower here than in the rest of the fridge. It is placed in the lower part, directly above of the vegetable drawer.
