sodium bicarbonate. Then, rinse with clean water and dry. Return all parts to the fridge
after cleaning.
› Remove all transport tapes and foam protection pieces. Clean the interior with a cloth
dampened in lukewarm soap and water. Rinse with clean water and dry.
› The adjustable front legs should be stabilised at an appropriate height to allow your fridge
to operate in a stable and proper way. You can adjust the legs by turning them clockwise (or
in the opposite direction). This should be done before placing food in the fridge.
› Yourfridgemayhaveanodourwhenitisoperatedforthersttime.Thisisnormalandthe

OPERATING YOUR FRIDGE
THERMOSTAT SETTING
The thermostat automatically regulates the inside
temperature of the refrigerator. By rotating the
knob from position 1 to 5, colder temperatures
can be obtained.
IMPORTANT NOTE
Do not try to rotate knob beyond 1 position it will stop your appliance.
› For short-term storage of food in the fridge, you can set the knob between minimum and
medium position (1-3).
› For long-term storage of food in the fridge, you can set knob medium position (3-4).
› Note that; the ambient temperature, temperature of the freshly stored food and how
often the door is opened, affects the temperature in the fridge. If required, change the
temperature setting.
› Whenyourstswitchontheappliance,youshouldideallytrytorunitwithoutanyfoodin
for 24 hours and not open the door. If you need to use it straight away, try not to put much
food inside.
› If the unit is switched off or unplugged, you must allow at least 5 minutes before restarting
in order not to damage the compressor.
Your fridge is designed to operate in the ambient temperature intervals stated in the standards,
according to the climate class stated in the information label. We do not recommend operating
your fridge out of stated temperatures value limits in terms of cooling effectiveness.
This appliance is designed
for use at an ambient
temperature within the 10°C -
32°C range.
FOOD STORAGE
REFRIGERATOR COMPARTMENT
› To reduce humidity and avoid the consequent formation of frost, always store liquids in
sealed containers in the refrigerator. Frost tends to concentrate in the coldest parts of the
evaporating liquid and, in time, your appliance will require more frequent defrosting.
› Never place warm food in the refrigerator. Warm food should be allowed to cool at room
temperature and should be arranged to ensure adequate air circulation in the refrigerator
compartment.
› Make sure no items are in direct contact with the rear wall of the appliance as frost will
develop and packaging will stick to it. Do not open the refrigerator door frequently.
› Werecommendthatmeatandcleansharelooselywrappedandstoredontheglass
shelf just above the vegetable bin where the air is cooler, as this provides the best storage
conditions.
› Store loose fruit and vegetable items in the crisper containers.
› Store loose fruit and vegetables in the crisper.
› Storing fruit and vegetables separately helps prevent ethylene-sensitive vegetables (green
leaves, broccoli, carrot, etc.) being affected by ethylene-releaser fruits (banana, peach,
apricot,getc.).
› Do not put wet vegetables into the refrigerator.
› Storage time for all food products depends on the initial quality of the food and an
uninterrupted refrigeration cycle before refrigerator storage.
› To avoid cross-contamination do not store meat products with fruit and vegetables. Water
leaking from meat may contaminate other products in the refrigerator. You should package
meat products and clean any leakages on the shelves.
› Donotputfoodinfrontoftheairowpassage.
› Consume packaged foods before the recommended expiry date.

TROUBLESHOOTING
BEFORE CALLING FOR SERVICE
Reviewing the information below may save you from calling for service.
THE APPLIANCE DOES NOT OPERATE CHECK IF:
› There is power to the unit
› The mains is connected
› The thermostat setting is on the “•” position
› The socket is defective. To check this, plug another working appliance into the same socket.
THE APPLIANCE PERFORMS POORLY CHECK IF:
› The appliance is overloaded
› The doors are closed properly
› There is any dust on the condenser
› There is enough space near the rear and side walls.
THE APPLIANCE IS NOISY
The cooling gas which circulates in the refrigerator circuit may make a slight noise (bubbling
sound) even when the compressor is not running. Do not worry, this is normal. If you hear a
different sound, check whether:
› The appliance is level
› Anything is touching the rear of the appliance
› Objects in the appliance are vibrating.
THE DOOR IS NOT PROPERLY OPENED OR CLOSED CHECK IF:
› Food packages preventing the door from being closed.
› Door compartments, shelves and drawers have been properly placed.
› The door seals are defective or torn?
› The refrigerator is standing on an even ground.
THERE IS WATER IN THE LOWER PART OF THE REFRIGERATOR CHECK IF:
› The drain hole for the water is not clogged (use defrost drain plug to clean the drain hole).
RECOMMENDATIONS
› If the appliance is switched off or unplugged, wait at least 5 minutes before plugging the
appliance in or restarting it in order to prevent damage to the compressor.
› The cooling unit of your refrigerator is located at the rear of the appliance. Therefore, water
droplets or ice may form on the rear surface of your fridge due to the operation of the
compressoratspeciedintervals.Thisisnormal,thereisnoneedtoperformadefrosting
operation unless there is excessive ice.
› The appliance you have purchased is designed for domestic use only. It is not suitable
for commercial or common use. If the consumer uses the appliance in a way that does
not comply with this, we emphasise that the manufacturer and the dealer will not be
responsible for any repair and failure within the guarantee period.

ENERGY SAVING TIPS
1. Install the appliance in a cool, well ventilated room, but not in direct sunlight and not near a
heat source (such as a radiator or oven) otherwise an insulating plate should be used.
2. Allow warm food and drinks to cool before placing them inside the appliance.
3. Place thawing food in the refrigerator compartment. The low temperature of the frozen food
will help cool the refrigerator compartment while the food is thawing. This will save energy.
Frozen food left to thaw outside of the appliance will result in a waste of energy.
4. Drinks or other liquids should be covered when inside the appliance. If left uncovered,
the humidity inside the appliance will increase, therefore the appliance uses more energy.
Keeping drinks and other liquids covered helps preserve their smell and taste.
5. Avoid keeping the doors open for long periods and opening the doors too frequently as
warm air will enter the appliance and cause the compressor to switch on unnecessarily often.
6. Keep the covers of the different temperature compartments (such as the crisper
and chiller) closed.
7. The door gasket must be clean and pliable. Replace gaskets if worn.
