emit is caused by the expansion and contraction
of parts as a result of temperature variations.
• For safety reasons do not repair the appliance
yourself. Repairs carried out by persons who do
not have the required qualications may result in
serious danger for the user of the appliance.
• Air the room in which the appliance is placed for
a few minutes (the size of the room for a product
containing isobuthane/R600a must be at least
4m3) to avoid damage to the cooling system.
• Do not refreeze partly thawed products.
• Do not store beverages in bottles and cans, espe-
cially carbonated beverages, in the freezer cham-
ber. The cans and the bottles may explode.
• Do not put frozen products, taken out directly
from the freezer (lollies, ice cubes, etc.) into your
mouth, their low temperature may cause severe
frostbite.
• Make sure you do not damage the cooling sys-
tem, by puncturing the refrigerant pipes in the
evaporator or breaking the pipes. The refrigerant
is ammable. If the refrigerant makes contact
with the eyes, rinse them with clean water and
call for medical assistance immediately.

CONTROLS
Appliance controls
The control panel is shown in gure 10. For reference it is also shown
below:
2
1
1 — Light
2 — Temperature control dial
Adjust temperature inside the appliance
Turn the dial to adjust the temperature in the appliance:
OFF/0 position Appliance is o
Setting 1 The highest temperature inside the appliance
(warmer)
Settings 2-6 Medium temperature inside the appliance
Setting 7 The lowest temperature inside the appliance
(cooler)
Note:
• The temperature control dial in your appliance can be marked dif-
ferently than in this manual. The general principle of operation is
described above.
• If there is no position marked "OFF" or "0” on the dial, turn o your
appliance by unplugging the power cord from the wall outlet. Before
unplugging set the lowest setting on the temperature control dial.

- 19 -
Additional information on the temperature
• The temperature inside the appliance is inuenced by many factors.
How you set the temperature control dial depends on the ambient
temperature, sun exposure, how often you open the door and the
amount of food stored. The middle setting of the dial is most optimal
in most cases.
• Do not put food into the fridge freezer before it has reached its oper-
ating temperature, which takes minimum 4 hours.
• Do not change the temperature settings due to the change in the
season of the year. The ambient temperature increase will be detect-
ed by the sensor and the compressor will be switched on automati-
cally for a longer period of time in order to maintain the temperature
set inside the chambers.
• The slight changes in temperature are perfectly normal and may oc-
cur, for instance during the storage of great quantities of fresh prod-
ucts in the fridge, or when the door is open for a longer period of
time. This will not aect the condition of the stored foodstu, and the
temperature will quickly return to its set value.
LIGHTING
This section applies to units factory equipped with incandescent lightbulb
and selected appliances equipped with LED lighting with E14 thread.
Replace the light bulb
• Set the knob to "OFF", then unplug the appliance.
• Remove the bulb cover (Fig. 18).
• Replace the bulb with one having identical parameters as the factory
installed bulb (E14 thread, 220-240V, maximum dimensions: 26 mm
diameter, 55 mm length).
• Replace the bulb cover.
• Bulbs of a higher or lower power should not be used, only use bulbs
of the specication given above.
Note:

OPERATION AND FUNCTIONS
Storage of food in the fridge-freezer
• The products should be placed on plates, in containers or packed in
food wrap. Distribute them evenly over the shelves.
• If the food contacts the rear wall, it may cause frosting or wetting of
the products.
• Do not put dishes with hot food into the fridge
• Products which absorb avours easily such as butter, milk, white
cheese and products with intense avour, such as sh, smoked meat,
hard cheese must be placed on shelves, packed in food wrap or in
tightly sealed containers.
• The storage of vegetables containing signicant quantities of water
will cause the deposition of condensation on the vegetable contain-
ers, it does not impact on the proper functioning of the fridge.
• Before putting the vegetables into the fridge, dry them well.
• Excessive moisture shortens the shelf life of vegetables, especially
the leafed vegetables.
• Do not wash the vegetables before storing in the refrigerator. Wash-
ing removes the natural protection, therefore it is better to wash the
vegetables directly before consumption.
• It is recommended to place the products in freezer drawers 1, 2, 3*
up to natural loading capacity (Fig. 11a / 11b).**
1. Packed products
2. Shelf
3. Natural loading capacity
4.
!
• Stacking of products on the freezer shelves is acceptable.*
• It is acceptable to place products beyond the natural loading capacity
by 20-30 mm.**
• In order to increase the loading capacity of the freezer chamber and
allow the stacking of products on the freezer evaporator wire shelves
up to maximum height it is possible to remove drawers 1 and 2.*
Freezing food**
• Practically all the food products, except for vegetables consumed
raw, such as lettuce can be frozen.
• Only food products of the highest quality, divided into small portions
for single use, should be frozen.
• Products should be packed in materials that are odourless, resistant
to air and moisture penetration, and not susceptible to fat. Plastic
bags, polyethylene and aluminium sheets are the best wrapping ma-
terials.
• The packaging should be tight and should stick to the frozen prod-
ucts. Do not use glass containers.
• Keep fresh and warm foodstu at ambient temperature away from
the products, which have already been frozen.
• We advise you not to place more of fresh food at a time to the freezer
per day (see table witch technical specication).
