liquid and gases sealed within the
refrigeration system may also give
rise to noise, even if the compressor
is not running and this is quite normal.
5. Front edges of the refrigerator
may feel warm. This is normal. These
areas are designed to be warm to
avoid condensation.
Electrical connection

room where the refrigerator will be
installed is not wide enough for the
refrigerator to pass through, then call
the authorized service to have them
remove the doors of your refrigerator
and pass it sideways through the door.
1. Install your refrigerator to a
place that allows ease of use.
2. Keep your refrigerator away
from heat sources, humid places and
direct sunlight.
3. There must be appropriate air
ventilation around your refrigerator
in order to achieve an efficient
operation. If the refrigerator is to be

setting)
(Or)
Min. = Lowest cooling setting
(Warmest setting)
Max. = Highest cooling 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.

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
itdry.
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
itdry.
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.
