• Your cooler/freezer should be
installed at least 30 cm away from
heat sources such as hobs, ovens,
central heater and stoves and at
least 5 cm away from electrical
ovens and should not be located
under direct sunlight.
• The ambient temperature of the
room where you install your cooler/
freezer should at least be 10°C.
Operating your cooler/freezer
under cooler conditions is not
recommended with regard to its
efficiency.
• Please make sure that the interior
of your cooler/freezer is cleaned
thoroughly.
• If two cooler/freezers are to be
installed side by side, there should
be at least 2 cm distance between
them.
• When you operate your cooler/
freezer for the first time, please
observe the following instructions
during the initial six hours.
• The door should not be opened
frequently.
• It must be operated empty without
any food in it.
• Do not unplug your cooler/freezer.
If a power failure occurs out of your
control, please see the warnings in
the “Recommended solutions for
the problems” section.
• Original packaging and foam
materials should be kept for future

5Using your cooler/freezer
Setting the operating
temperature
2 1 3
LED indicators and control
panel
There are two coloured indicator
lights located on the front of the
appliance which shows the operating
mode of the freezer.
Green Indicator (1):
Illuminates when the appliance is
connected to the mains and will glow
as long as electricity is available.
The green light will not glow if the
thermostat is set to ‘0’ position. The
green indicator does not give any
indication of the temperature inside
the freezer.
Red Indicator (2) Illuminates:
a) If the pre-set temperature can not
be maintained.
b) If excessive amounts of fresh food
are placed inside.
c) If the appliance door is left open
accidentally.
Thermostat knob (3)
Thermostat knob is located on the
indicator light set.
The operating temperature is
regulated by the temperature control.

EN
16
Warm Cold
1 = Lowest cooling setting (Warmest
setting)
4 = Highest cooling setting (Coldest
setting)
(Or)
Min. = Lowest cooling setting
(Warmest setting)
Max. = Highest cooling setting
(Coldest setting)
Please choose the setting according
to the desired temperature.
The interior temperature also
depends on ambient temperature,
the frequency with which the door is
opened and the amount of food kept
inside.
Frequently opening the door causes
the interior temperature to rise.
For this reason, it is recommended
to close the door again as soon as
possible after use.
The normal storage temperature
of your appliance should be -18 °C (0
°F). If the thermostat knob is turned
counter clockwise from position
1, the appliance will be switched
off and “click” sound will be heard.
Lower temperatures can be obtained
by adjusting the thermostat knob
towards Position 4.
We recommend checking the
temperature with a thermometer to
ensurethatthestoragecompartments
are kept to the desired temperature.
Remember at take the reading
immediately since the thermometer
temperature will rise very rapidly after
you remove it from the freezer.
Freezing food
The freezing area is marked with
symbol on the door liner.
You can use the appliance for
freezing fresh food as well as for
storing pre-frozen food.
Please refer to the recommendations
given on the packaging of your food.
AAttention
Do not freeze fizzy drinks, as the
bottle may burst when the liquid in it
is frozen.
Be careful with frozen products such
as coloured ice-cubes.
Do not exceed the freezing capacity
of your appliance in 24 hours. See the
rating label.
In order to maintain the quality of the
food, the freezing must be effected as
rapidly as possible.
Thus, the freezing capacity will not
be exceeded, and the temperature
inside the freezer will not rise.

EN
17
1-
4-

-3
AAttention
Keep the already deep-frozen food
always separated with freshly placed
food.
When deep-freezing hot food, the
cooling compressor will work until the
food is completely frozen. This can
temporarily cause excessive cooling
of the refrigeration compartment.
If you find the freezer door difficult
to open just after you have closed it,
don’t worry. This is due to the pressure
difference which will equalize and
allow the door to open normally after
a few minutes.
You will hear a vacuum sound just
after closing the door. This is quite
normal.
Making ice cubes
Fill the ice-cube tray 3/4 full with
water and place it in the freezer.
As soon as the water has turned into
ice, you can take out the ice cubes.
Never use sharp objects such as
knives or forks to remove the ice
cubes. There is a risk of injury!
Let the ice cubes slightly thaw
instead, or put the bottom of the tray
in hot water for a short moment.
Defrosting of the appliance
Excessive build-up of ice will affect
the freezing performance of your
appliance.
It is therefore recommended that you
defrost your appliance at least twice
a year, or whenever the ice build-up
exceeds 7 mm.
Defrost your appliance when there is
only little or no food in it.
Take out the deep-frozen food from
the drawers. Wrap the deep-frozen
food in several layers of paper, or a
blanket, and keep it in a cold place.
Unplug the appliance or switch
off the circuit breaker to start the
defrosting process.
Take out the accessories (like shelf,
drawer etc.) from the appliance and
use a suitable container to collect the
thawing water.

EN
18
Use a sponge or a soft cloth to
remove thawing water if necessary
Keep the door open during
defrosting.
For quicker defrosting, place
containers with warm water inside
the appliance.
Never use electrical devices,
defrosting sprays or pointed or sharp-
edged objects such as knives or forks
to remove the ice.
After the defrosting is done, clean
the inside.
Reconnect the appliance to the
mains. Place the frozen food into the
drawers and slide the drawers into the
freezer.
Check regularly to see if the drain
pipe is clogged or not and clear it with
the stick in the hole when necessary.

EN

6Maintenance and cleaning
A Never use gasoline, benzene or
similar substances for cleaning
purposes.
B We recommend that you unplug the
appliance before cleaning.
B Never use any sharp abrasive
instrument, soap, household
cleaner, detergent and wax polish
for cleaning.
B For non-No Frost products,
water drops and frosting up to a
fingerbreadth occur on the rear wall
of the Fridge compartment. Do not
clean it; never apply oil or similar
agents on it.
B Only use slightly damp microfiber
cloths to clean the outer surface
of the product. Sponges and other
types of cleaning cloths may scratch
the surface.
C Use lukewarm water to clean the
cabinet of your refrigerator and wipe
it dry.
C Use a damp cloth wrung out in
a solution of one teaspoon of
bicarbonate of soda to one pint of
water to clean the interior and wipe
it dry.
B Make sure that no water enters the
lamp housing and other electrical
items.
B If your refrigerator is not going to
be used for a long period of time,
unplug the power cable, remove all
food, clean it and leave the door ajar.
C Check door seals regularly to ensure
they are clean and free from food
particles.
A To remove door racks, remove all the
contents and then simply push the
door rack upwards from the base.
A Never use cleaning agents or water
that contain chlorine to clean the
outer surfaces and chromium coated
parts of the product. Chlorine causes
corrosion on such metal surfaces.
A Do not use sharp, abrasive tools,
soap, household cleaning agents,
detergents, kerosene, fuel oil,
varnish etc. to prevent removal and
deformation of the prints on the
plastic part. Use lukewarm water
and a soft cloth for cleaning and
then wipe it dry.
Protection of plastic
surfaces
CDo not put the liquid oils or oil-
cooked meals in your refrigerator
in unsealed containers as they
damage the plastic surfaces of your
refrigerator. In case of spilling or
smearing oil on the plastic surfaces,
clean and rinse the relevant part
of the surface at once with warm
water.
