BeforePuttingIntoUse
Beforeconnectingtheappliancetothepowersupply,leaveitstandingforabout2hours,whichwill
reduceapossibilityofmalfunctionsinthecoolingsystemduetotransporthandling.

Cleantheappliancethoroughly;especiallyintheinterior(SeeCleaningandMaintenance).

InstructionsforUse
Theseinstructionsforuseareintendedfortheuser.Theydescribetheapplianceandthe
correctandsafewaytouseit.Theinstructionswerepreparedforvarioustypes/models
ofrefrigeratorsthereforeyoumayfindinitdescriptionsofsomeaccessoriesand
functionsthatyourappliancemaynothave.

WeCarefortheEnvironment

Ourappliancesaredistributedinpackagingmadeofenvironmentalfriendlymaterialwhichcould
safelyberecycled,disposedofordestroyedwithoutanyeffectsontheenvironmentwhatsoever.

Ourinstructionmanualsareprintedeitheronrecycledpaperorchlorinefreebleachedpaper.

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trytocloseitassoonaspossible.
Everynowandthencheckiftheapplianceissufficientlyventilated(adequateair
circulationbehindtheappliance).
Setthermostatfromhighertolowersettingsassoonaspossible(dependingonhow
loadedtheapplianceis,theambienttemperatureetc...).
Thecoilsontherearoftherefrigeratorshouldbecleanedandfreeofdustoranyother
impurities.
Iceandfrostlayerincreaseenergyconsumption,sodocleantheapplianceassoonasthe
layeris1/8”thick.
AlwaysconsiderinstructionsstatedinsectionsPositioningandEnergySavingTips,
otherwisetheenergyconsumptionissubstantiallyhigher.

ImportantInformation

Warning!Toreducetheriskoffire,electricalshock,orinjurywhenusingyour
appliance,followthesebasicprecautions.

Readallinstructionsbeforeusingtheappliance
Ifyouboughtthisappliancetoreplaceanoldoneequippedwithalockthatcannotbe
openedfrominside(lock,bolt),makesurethatthelockisbroken.Thiswillmakeit
impossibleforchildrentolockthemselvesinsidetheapplianceandsuffocate.
Theappliancemustbecorrectlyconnectedtothepowersupply.

4|Page

Disconnecttheappliancefromthepowersupplybeforerepairingandcleaningit(onlya
qualifiedtechnicianshouldrepairit).
Useonlyenclosedtoolsortoolsrecommendedbythemanufacturer.
Forthesakeofenvironmentalprotectionbecarefulnottodamagetherearwallofthe
appliance(thecondenserunitorthetubeswhenmovingtherefrigerator)oranypartofthe
freezingsysteminsidetheappliance.Useonlyenclosedtoolsortoolsrecommendedbythe
manufacturer.
DANGER:Riskofchildentrapment.
Beforethrowingawayyouroldfreezerpleaseremovethedoorsandleavetheshelvesin
placesothatchildrenmaynoteasilyclimbinside.
Theratingplateisinsidetheapplianceoroutsideontherearwall.

DisposingoftheWornOutAppliance
Whenyourappliancefinallywearsout,disposeofit.Iftheappliancehasalock,breakit
topreventeventualaccidents(dangerofchildrengettinglockedinsidetheappliance).

MaintenanceandCleaning

AutomaticDefrostingoftheRefrigerator
Thereisnoneedtodefrosttherefrigerator,becausetheicedepositingontheinnerback
wallisdefrostedautomatically.
Iceisdepositingontheinnerbackwallduringthecompressoroperation;lateron,when
thecompressorisnotoperating,iceisdefrostingandwaterdrops,collectsanddrains
throughtheoutletintheinnerbackwallintothedrainpansituatedabovethe
compressorwhereitevaporates.

CleaningtheAppliance
Disconnectthepowersupplybeforecleaningtheappliance.Donotusecoarseor
aggressivecleaningagentsasyoucandamagethesurface.

Cleantheexteriorwithwateranddetergent.Varnishedsurfacesarecleanedwith
softclothandanalcoholbasedcleaningagent(forexampleglasscleaners).Youmay
alsousealcohol(ethanolorisopropylalcohol).Theapplicationofabrasiveand
especiallyaggressivecleaners,suchasstainlesssteelcleaners,isnotappropriatefor
thecleaningofplasticandcoatedparts.
Removethedetachableaccessoriesintheinterioroftheapplianceandcleanitwith
waterandliquiddetergent.Plasticpartscannotbewashedinawashingmachine.
Washtheinterioroftheappliancewithlukewarmwater,inwhichyouaddoneor
twospoonfulsofvinegar.
Everynowandthenwipethecondenserontherearwall.Useasoftnon‐metal
brushorvacuumcleaner.
Donotforgettocleanthedefrostwaterreceptacleabovetherefrigerators
compressor(donotremovethereceptacle).Aftercleaning,connecttheapplianceto
thepowersupplyandreloadthepackages.

5|Page


SwitchOfftheApplianceWhenNotinUse
Ifyoudonotintendtousetheapplianceforanextensiveperiodoftimesetthe
thermostatknobtotheSTOP(0)positionanddisconnectthepowersupply.Thenclean
theapplianceandleavethedoorslightlyopen.

Trouble‐ShootingGuide

Duringtheserviceofyourappliance,youcancomeacrosssometroublesthatinmostcasesresult
fromimproperhandlingoftheappliancethatcaneasilybeeliminated.

TheApplianceFailstoOperateAfterConnectingtothePowerSupply
Checkthesupplyintheoutletsocketandmakesuretheapplianceisswitchedon
(thermostatintheoperatingposition).

ContinuousOperationoftheRefrigeratingSystem
Thedoorwasfrequentlyopenedoritwasleftopentoolong.
Thedoorisnotproperlyclosed(thedoormaysag;thegasketmaybepollutedor
damaged).
Perhapsyouhaveoverloadedtheappliance.
Thereasonmaybeinadequateventilationofthecompressorandcondenser(assures
adequateaircirculationandwipeoffthecondenser).

IceFormationontheInnerRearWall
Aslongasthedefrostwaterrunstothechannelandthroughtheopeningtothedrainpan
onthecompressor,automaticdefrostingoftheapplianceisassured.Incasetheice
formationontheinnerbackwallisincreased(1/8”),iceshouldbemanuallydefrosted.
SetthethermostatknobtoSTOP(0)positionandleavethedooropen.Neveruseelectric
devicesfordefrostinganddonotscrapetheiceorfrostlayerwithsharpobjects.After
completeddefrosting,turntheknobtodesiredpositionandclosetherefrigeratordoor.
Thecauseofincreasediceformationmaybeoneofthefollowingreasons:
Thedoordoesnotsealwell(cleanthegasketifitiscontaminated,or
replaceitifitisdamaged).
Thedoorwasfrequentlyopenedoritwasleftopenedfortoolong.
Thefoodstoredintherefrigeratorwaswarm.
Theitemsbeingstoredaretouchingtheinnerbackwall.

WaterisLeakingfromtheRefrigerator
Incasethedischargedwateroutletisclogged,orthedefrostwaterdripsoverthe
channel,orwaterleaksfromtherefrigeratorjustcleanthecloggedopeningwitha
plasticstraw.Manuallydefrosttheincreasedicelayer.See“IceFormationontheInner
BackWall”.

Noise
Coolinginrefrigerating‐freezingappliancesisenabledbytherefrigeratingsystemwith
thecompressor,thisproducesnoise.Hownoisytheapplianceisdependsonwhereitis
placed,howit’susedandhowoldtheapplianceis.

Duringtheoperationofthecompressor,aliquidnoiseisheardandwhenthe
compressorisnotoperatinga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andthisdoesnotmeansomethingiswrongwiththeappliance.
Thenoisewillreducegradually,thiswillnotaffectthelifetimeoftheappliance.
Sometimesunusualandstrongnoisesoccurwhichisratherunusualforthe
appliance.Thisnoiseisoftenaconsequenceofinadequateplacing.Toavoidthe
noisemakesuretheapplianceisplacedandleveledfirmlyonasolidbase.Make
suretheapplianceisnottouchingthewallorkitchenunitsstandingnexttoit.And
alwaysmakesureyouchecktheaccessoriesintheinterioroftheappliance;they
shouldbeplacedcorrectlyintheirpositions.Checkthebottles,tinsandother
vesselsthatmighttoucheachotherandrattle.

BeforeCallingforService
Checktheplugandfuse.
Testtheoutletwithalamp
BesurethecontrolisnotsettoOFF
Readthemanual,especiallytheitemsundertheUseandCaresections.Youmayfindthe
answertoyourquestions.
Ifyoudon’tfindtheanswertoyourquestionsinthismanual,findtheunitmodelnumber
(ontheupperbackoftherefrigerator)andcontactyourSummitApplianceDealer.
