higher.
To
restore
efficiency,
replace
the
gasket.
•
Always
consider
instructions
stated
in
sections
Positioning
and
Energy
Saving
Tips,
otherwise
the
energy
consumption
is
substantially
higher.
These
instructions
for
use
are
intended
for
the
user.
They
describe
the
appliance
and
correct
operating
procedures
for
safe
use.
SAVE

To
this
end,
individual
packaging
materials
are
dearly
marked.
•
These
instructions
are

•
When

Tips
for
Energy
Savings
•
Try
not
to
open
the
door
too
often,
especially
when
the
weather
is
hot
and
humid.
Once
you
open
the
door,
close
it
as
soon
as
possible.
This
is
especially
important
if
you
have
an
upright
model.
•
Every
now
and
then
check
if
the
appliance
is
sufficiently
ventilated
(adequate
air
circulation
behind
the
appliance).
•
Set
the
thermostat
from
higher
to
lower
settings
as
soon
as
possible
(depends
on
how
loaded
the
appliance
is,
ambient
temperatures
etc).
•
Before
loading
the
appliance
with
packages
of
fresh
foods,
make
sure
that
they
are
cooled
to
ambient
temperature,
(excluding
soups)
•
Ice
and
frost
layers
increase
energy
consumption,
so
clean
the,
appliance
as
soon
as
the
frost
layer
is
3-5
mm
thick.

make
sure
that
the

has
a
strange
smelf
or
color,
throw

disconnect
the
appliance
from
the
power
supply
before
cleaning

Illumination
In
the
Interior
of
the
Refrigerator
The
light
for
illuminating
the
interior
of
the
refrigerator
is
on,
when
the
door
is
opened,
off
when
the
door
is
closed.
Operation
Control
The
temperature
of
the
refrigerator
is
controlled
by
setting
thermostat
knob,
(ceiling
of
the
cabinet)
to
a
desired
setting.
Temperature
Selection
To
start
the
refrigerator,
turn
the
temperature
control
knob
to
the
position
corresponding
to
the
desired
cooling
(on
the
graduated
blue
dial)
Fig
A
The
refrigerator
temperature
will
vary
depending
on
the
quantity
of
the
food
stored
and
on
the
frequency
with
which
the
door
is
opened.
To
turn
the
control
to
the
“OFF’
1
position,
rotate
the
control
knob
to
the
"
0
”
position.
If
the
refrigerator
has
been
left
out
of
use
for
some
time,
set
the
control
to
maximum
for
2-3
hours
before
turning
to
the
desired
position,
if
the
refrigerator
is
not
being
used
for
long
time
periods,
disconnect
the
plug
and
leave
the

partially
open.
This
will
help
to
reduce
mold/miEdew
from
accumulating
inside
the
refrigerator
cabinet.
*
Changes
in
ambient
room
temperature
will
affect
internal

position
the
appliance
does
not

is
not
interrupted
(the

is
opened.
Use
Storing
Fresh
Foods
Proper
use
of
the
appliance,
adequately
packed
food,
correct
temperature
and
taking
into
account
hygienic
precautions
will
substantially
influence
the
quality
of
the
food
stored.
*
Foods
to
be
stored
in
the
refrigerator
should
be
properly
packed
so
as
to
prevent
mixing
various
moisture
degrees
and
odors
{in
polyethylene
bags
or
sheet,
aluminum
foil,
wax
paper,
or
stored
In
covered
containers
or
bottles).
*
Before
storing
food
In
the
refrigerator,
remove
excessive
packaging
{like
yogurt
in
mu
It!-package),
*
Pack
systematically
and
make
sure
that
foodstuffs
do
not
touch
each
other
(various
odors
may
mix).
Assure
adequate
air
circulation
around
packages.
*
Never
store
ffammable,
volatile
or
explosive
substances.
*
Beverages
with
high
alcohol
percentage
shall
be
stored
in
tightly
sealed
bottles
in
vertical
position.
*
Food
should
not
touch
the
rear
wall
of
the
refrigerator
*
Foods
should
be
coofed
down
before
storing.
•
Crispy
and
delicate
foods
should
be
stored
in
the
coldest
parts
of
the
refrigerator.
•
Try
not
to
open
the
door
too
often.
•
Set
the
thermostat
to
a
setting
where
lowest
temperatures
are
reached.
Set
the
thermostat
gradually
so
as
to
avoid
freezing
of
foods.
Use
a
thermometer
and
measure
the
temperature
in
the
individual
compartments.
Pface
the
thermostat
in
a
glass
vessel
filled
with
water.
Temperature
readings
are
most
reliable
a
few
hours
after
a
steady
state
condition
is
reached,
•
Some
organic
solutions
like
volatile
oils
in
lemon
and
orange
peel,
acid
in
butter
etc.
can
cause
damage
when
in
contact
with
plastic
surfaces
or
gaskets
for
long
periods
of
time.
•
Unpleasant
odors
inside
the
refrigerator
is
a
sign
that
something
is
wrong
with
foods
or
that
your
refrigerator
needs
cleaning.
Unpleasant
odors
can
be
eliminated
or
reduced
by
washing
the
interior
of
the
refrigerator
with
mild
soiution
of
water
and
vinegar.
We
also
recommend
using
activated
carbon
filters
to
clean
the
air
or
to
neutralize
odors.
•
If
you
are
planning
a
long
journey,
make
sure
to
remove
perishable
articles
of
food
out
of
the
appliance
before
you
leave.

is
frequently
opened
or
left
open
for
too
long.
•
The
door
is
not
properly
closed
(the
door
may
sag,
the
gasket
may
be
polluted
or
damaged).
•
Perhaps
you
may
have

The
reason
may
be
inadequate
ventilation
of
the

Ice
Formation
on
the
Inner

As
long
as
the
defrost
water
runs
to
the
channel
and
through
the
outlet
to
the
drain
pan
on
the
compressor,
automatic
defrosting
of
the
appliance
is
assured.
In
case
the
ice
formation
on
the
inner
back
wail
is
increased
(
3-5
mm),
ice
should
be
manually
defrosted.
Set
the
thermostat
knob
to
STOP

position
and
leave
the
door
open.
Never
use
electric
devices
for
defrosting
and
do
not
scrape
the
ice
or
frost
layer
with
sharp
objects.
increased
ice
formation
may
be
one
of
the
following:
the
door
does
not
seal
well
(clean
the
gasket
if
it
is
contaminated,
or
replace
it
if
it
is
damaged);
-the
door
is
frequently
opened
or
left
too
long;
-the
food
stored
in
the
refrigerator
was
warm;
-the
food
or
dish
is
touching
the
inner
back
wall.
Water

Leaking
From
the
Refrigerator
If
the
discharge
water
outlet
is
clogged,
or
the
defrost
water
drips
over
the
channel,
water
will
leak
from
the
refrigerator.

Noise
Cooling
in
a
refrigerator-freezing
appliance
is
made
possible
by
cooling
the
system
using
a
compressor,
which
will
produce
certain
noise
levels.
How
noisy
the
appliance
is
depends
on
where
it
is
placed,
how
it
is
used
and
how
old
the
appliance
is.
*
During
Ihe
operation
of
the
compressor
the
noise
of
the
liquid
is
heard
and
when
the
compressor
is
not
operating,
the
refrigerant
flow
is
heard.
This
is
a
normal
condition
and
it
has
no
influence
whatsoever
on
the
lifetime
of
the
appliance.
*
After
starting
the
appliance,
the
operation
of
the
compressor
and
the
refrigerant
flow
may
be
louder,
which
does
not
mean
that
something
is
wrong
with
the
appliance
and
it
has
no
influence
on
the
lifetime
of
the
appliance.
Gradually
the
is
noise
reduced.
*
Sometimes
unusual
and
louder
noise
is
heard,
which
is
rather
unusual
for
the
appliance.
This
noise
is
often
a
consequence
of
inadequate
installation,
-The
appliance
must
be
level
and
installed
on
a
firm
solid
base/floor.
-It
should
not
touch
the
wall
or
kitchen
units
standing
next
to
it.
-Check
the
accessories
on
the
interior
of
the
appliance,
they
should
be
placed
correctly
in
their
positions;
also
check,
bottles,
tins,
and
other
vessels
are
not
touching
each
other
causing
rattling
and/or
vibrations.
After
defrosting
is
complete,
turn
the
knob
to
desired
position
and
close
the

le
refrigerateur.
•
Les
aliments
croustillants
et

a
un
niveau
ou
les
plus
basses
temperatures
sont
atteintes.
Reglez
le

peuvent
endommager
les
surfaces
en
plastique
ou
les
joints
etanches
qu'ils
touchent
pendant
des
longues
durees.
Les
odeurs
desagreables
provenant
du
refrigerateur
indiquent
qu'ils
s'y
trouvent
des
aliments
pourris
ou
que
le

doit
etre
nettoyer.
Les
odeurs
deplaisantes
peuvent
etre
elfminees
ou
reduftes
en
lavant
I'interieur
du

avec
une
solution
douce
d'eau
et
de

Nous
recommandons
aussi
I'utilisation
des
filtres
de
charbon
active
pour
nettoyer
i’afr
ou
pour
arreter
les
odeurs.
Si
vous
planifier
