VII. CONTROL PANEL
•Insert the plug of the connection lead into the plug socket with a protective
grounding contact.
•The temperature selector knob is located on the left upper side of the refrigerator
compartment.
Setting “Off” means:
Off
Clockwise rotate the knob to turn on the appliance.
Setting “MIN” means:
Highest temperature, warmest setting.
Setting “MAX” means:
Lowest temperature, coldest setting.
Important!
Normally we advise you select a setting of “MID”. If you want the temperature warmer or
colder please turn the knob to lower or higher setting accordingly. When you turn the
knob to a lower setting, this can lead to more energy saving. Otherwise, it would result
high consumption of energy.
Note: High temperature setting will accelerate food waste.
For optimum food preservation, a medium setting is generally the most suitable.
Important!
High ambient temperatures (e.g. on hot summer days) and a cold setting (setting “MAX”)
may cause the compressor to run continuously or even non-stop.
Reason: When the ambient temperature is high, the compressor must run continuously
to maintain the low temperature in the appliance.

IX. HELPFUL HINTS AND TIPS
Noises during operation
The following noises are characteristic of refrigeration appliances:
Clicks: Whenever the compressor switches on or off, a click can be heard.
Humming: As soon as the compressor is in operation, you can hear it humming.
Bubbling: When refrigerant flows into thin tubes, you can hear bubbling or splashing
noises.
Splashing: Even after the compressor has been switched off, this noise can be heard for a
short time.
Energy saving tips
•Do not install the appliance near cookers, radiators or other sources of warmth.
•Do not open the door too often or leave the door open any longer than necessary.
•Do not set temperature colder than necessary.
•Make sure the side plates and back plate of the appliance are with some distance
from the wall, follow the instructions relevant to installation.
•If sketch map shows the right combination of the drawers, crisper and shelves, do
not adjust the combination, it would result in more energy- consuming.
Hints for fresh food refrigeration
To obtain the best performances:
•Do not store warm foods or evaporating liquids in the appliance.
•Do cover or wrap the food, particularly if it has a strong flavor or odor.
•Position food so that air can circulate freely around.
Hints for refrigeration
•Meat (all types): wrap in polythene bags and place on the glass shelf above the
vegetable drawer. For safety, store in this way only one or two days at the most.
•Cooked foods, cold dishes, etc…: these should be covered and may be placed on
any shelf.
•Fruit and vegetables: these should be thoroughly cleaned and placed in the special
draw(s) provided.
•Butter and cheese: these should be placed in aluminum foil or polythene bags to
exclude as much air as possible.
•Milk bottles: these should have a cap and should be stored in the bottle rack on
the door.

www.heinner.com
16
For hygienic reasons the appliance interior, including interior accessories, should be
cleaned regularly.
The fridge should be cleaned and maintained at least every two months.
WARNING: Electrical shock hazard
The appliance should not be connected to the mains during cleaning. Before cleaning,
switch the appliance off and remove the plug from the mains, or switch off or turn out the
circuit breaker or fuse.
Notice!
•Remove the food from the appliance before cleaning. Store them in a cool place,
well covered.
•Never clean the appliance with a steam cleaner. Moisture could accumulate in
electrical components.
•Hot vapors can lead to the damage of plastic parts.
•Ethereal oils and organic solvents can attack plastic parts, e.g. lemon juice or the
juice from orange peel, butyric acid, cleanser that contain acetic acid. Do not allow
such substances to come into contact with appliance parts.
•Do not use any abrasive cleansers.
•Clean the appliance and the interior accessories with a cloth and lukewarm water.
Commercially available dish washing detergents may also be used.
•After cleaning wipe with fresh water and clean dish cloth.
•Accumulation of dust at the condenser increases energy consumption, clean the
condenser at the back of the appliance once a year with a soft brush or a vacuum
cleaner.
•After everything is dry place appliance back into service.
Defrosting
Why defrosting
Water contained in food or getting into air inside the fridge be opening doors may form a
frost layer inside. It will weaken the refrigeration when the frost is thick. While it is more
than 10 mm thick, you should defrost.
Defrosting in fresh food storage compartment
Power off the refrigerator, take out the stored ingredient, open the refrigerator door. Let
the refrigerator stand for a period of time. After the frost turns into the water, dry the
water. Close the refrigerator door and plug in the power.
