The appliance should be transported in the vertical position. The
manufacturer will not be responsible for any damage of the appliance that
results from non-compliance with the instructions for transportation.
The manufacturer guarantees reliable operation of the refrigerator when
the relative air humidity not greater than 70 per cent and the ambient
temperature is: +16 to +32 degrees Celsius - climate class N;
+16 to +38 degrees Celsius - climate class ST.
INSTALLATION AND OPERATING CONDITIONS OF THE
APPLIANCE
Positioning:
•This appliance can be installed in a dry, well ventilated indoor where the ambient
temperature corresponds to the climate class indicated on the rating plate of the
appliance.
WARNING! Do not install this appliance in areas that are too humid or
too colds, such as the construction appendices, garages or wine cellars.
The rear wall of the refrigerator, in particular, the condenser and other elements of the
cooling system must not contact other elements, which may damage them, (e.g. central
heating pipes and the water supply pipes).
WARNING! The appliance must not touch any pipes for heating, gas or
water supply, or any other electrical devices.
Minimum distances from the heat sources:
- from the electric gas and other ovens - 30 mm,
- from oil or coal fired ovens - 300 mm,
- from built-in ovens - 50 mm
If there is no possibility of ensuring the above- mentioned
distances, provide an appropriate insulation board
•Do not cover the ventilation holes at the top of the appliances –it
must be a good air circulation
around the appliance. There should
be a gap of at least 10 cm between
the top of the appliance body and
any furniture that may be above it
(see fig.). If this requirement is not
followed, the appliance consumes
more electrical energy and its
compressor may overheat.
•If the appliance is placed in a corner, a gap must be left
between the appliance body and the wall so that the
freezer compartment door can be opened enough to
pull out the frozen product drawer (see picture).

4
•The appliance must stand on a level surface and must not touch the wall. If
necessary, regulate the height of the appliance by adjusting the levelling feet: by
turning them clockwise –the front of the appliance rises, by turning them counter
clockwise –it comes down. If the appliance is tilted slightly backward –the doors will
close by themselves.
Preparing for operation:
•It is recommended to prepare the appliance for operation with a helper.
•Remove package. Lift the appliance away from foamed polystyrene base. Tear off
adhesive tapes.
•When positioning the appliance in chosen location, it will move more easily into position if
you lift the front a little and incline it backward, allowing it to roll on its casters. When
placing, moving, lifting the appliance, do not hold the door handles, do not pull
the condenser at the rear part of the refrigerator and do not touch the
compressor unit.
•Remove all red-coloured parts from the
shelves (fig. 2.). Tear away the red-coloured
adhesive tapes from the door trays –they are
intended only for the transport of the
appliance.
NOTE. When you open the freezer compartment door
a little red packing detail will fall out –IT IS FOR
TRANSPORTATION PURPOSES ONLY.
•Take two supports 1from the bag and insert
them into the guides 2at the top back part of the
appliance (see picture).
The appliance should not be connected to the mains until all packing and
transport materials aren’t removed. Suitably dispose the packaging material.
First use:
•Before using the appliance for the first time, the interior and all internal accessories
should be washed with lukewarm water and some neutral soap to remove the typical
smell of a brandnew product, then dried thoroughly.
Wait at least 4 hours before connecting the appliance to the
power supply. This is to allow the oil to flow back in the compressor.
•When first starting-up or after a period out of use, before putting the products in the
compartment let the appliance run at least 2 hours.

DEFROSTING, CLEANING AND CARE
THE REFRIGERATOR COMPARTMENT defrosts automatically. Drops of ice that form on
the back wall of the refrigerator compartment thaw during the time the compressor is
not working and the thaw water runs down the thaw water runoff channel to the tray
on top of the compressor (Fig. 1), where it evaporates.

10
FREEZER COMPARTMENT gets defrosted automatically: it operates a frost-free cooling
system (No Frost). However, according to how often the freezer door were opened and
closed, and to - how warm products were placed into the appliance, the frost can
accumulate on walls of freezer inner liner and drawers. It is normal. But the thicker is
the layer of frost, the higher is a power consumption. In case if No Frost system had
not managed to evaporate the excess moisture and the frost layer has formed on, you
should defrost the appliance. To defrost the appliance, follow the steps in sequence:
•WARNING! Turn the appliance off and pull the plug out of the electrical socket.
•Remove foodstuffs from freezer compartment.
•Leave door of freezer compartment open. When the frost melts, clean and wipe dry
the surfaces and fixtures of the freezer compartment.
•Close the appliance door. Plug in and turn on the appliance.
REGULARLY CLEAN THE APPLIANCE !
Note: before cleaning the cooling device and its rear compartment
part, the device must be disconnected from the mains by unplugging.
•Protect the appliance inner surfaces and plastic parts from fats, acids and sauces. In
case of accidental spills –immediately clean with warm soapy water or dishwashing
detergent. Wipe dry.
•Regularly clean the hermetic gaskets of the doors. Wipe dry.
•◄ REGULARLY CLEAN THE THAW WATER CHANNEL SPACE WITH
A SPECIAL CLEANER FOR THAT PURPOSE (Fig. 1).
•At least once a year clean dust away from the back part of the
appliance body and the compressor. A soft brush, electrostatic
cloth or vacuum cleaner may be used for cleaning.
•DO NOT use detergents containing abrasive particles, acid,
alcohol or benzene for cleaning the appliance inner and outer
surfaces. DO NOT use for cleaning cloths or sponges that have
coarse surfaces intended for scrubbing.
•If the appliance is to be left switched off for an extended period,
leave its doors open.
CHANGING THE OPENING DIRECTION OF THE DOORS
WE RECOMMEND that the opening direction of the refrigerator door is
changed by a maintenance technician. However, this work is not included in
the warranty service.

OPERATION PROBLEMS AND THEIR SOLUTIONS
(TROUBLESHOOTING). What if …
•The appliance is plugged in to the mains but it does not work. Check that your
house electricity supply installations are in order. Check that the plug is correctly
inserted into the electricity supply socket.
•Compressors operate for a long time or without interruption at a high
temperature in the cooling appliance. Check whether the refrigerator door is
closed tightly, whether the door has not been kept open when loading the food
products for longer periods than required to perform the actions and whether too
many warm food products have been loaded.
You should immediately contact the cooling equipment maintenance company if:
The alarm indicator is red and the freezer compartment temperature display field 8
(see Fig. 3a) shows any of the characters "EE", "ER", "F", "FF".
The alarm indicator is red and temperature indicator displays (see Fig. 3a) any of
the characters "HI", "L" for 24 hours continuously (symbols can‘t be turned off by
touching on of the buttons 10 or 11).
•High temperature in appliance, the compressor operation pauses are short.
Ascertain whether the appliance doors are shutting tightly, whether the door wasn’t
kept open longer than necessary when taking out or putting in foodstuffs or whether
a large amount of warm food was placed in the appliance.
•The noise has become louder. Check that the appliance is standing stable, on a
level place. To make it level, regulate the front feet. Check if the appliance is not
touching any furniture, and that no part of the refrigeration system at the back part of
the appliance body is touching the wall. Pull the appliance away from any furniture or

13
walls. Check that the cause of increased noise isn’t due to bottles, cans or dishes in
the appliance that might be touching each other.
•Water has appeared at the bottom of the refrigerator compartment. Check
whether a thaw water channel space isn’t blocked. Clean the thaw water channel
space with a cleaner intended for that purpose.
•Water has appeared on the tempered glass shelves. Food items or dishes in
the refrigeration compartment are touching the back wall of the compartment. Do not
let food items or dishes touch the back wall.
•Moisture dripping from under the glass shelves. If you placed many containers
with liquids on the shelf, moisture can condense and drip onto the shelf below. Move
some containers with liquids onto other shelves.
•Water has appeared under the appliance. The thaw water collection tray has
slipped off the compressor. Place the tray on top of the compressor.
•When the appliance door is opened, the rubber sealing gasket pulls out. The
gasket is smeared with sticky foodstuffs (fat, syrup). Clean the sealing gasket and the
groove for it with warm water containing soap or dishwashing detergent and wipe dry.
Put the rubber sealing gasket back into the place.
•The top of the appliance has condensation on it. The ambient relative air
humidity is above 70 %. Ventilate the room where the appliance stands and if
possible remove the cause of the humidity.
Remarks on the appliance operating noise. As the appliance operates and
goes through the freezing cycle, various noises will be emitted. This is normal
and is not a sign of any malfunction.
•As the refrigerant circulates around the refrigeration system, it causes sounds like
murmuring, bubbling, or rustling. Louder sounds like popping or clicking may be heard
for a short time as the refrigerator’s compressor switches on.
