Tips for saving energy
1. Install the appliance in a cool, well ventilated room , but not in direct sunlight and not
near a heat source (radiator, cooker.. etc). Otherwise use an insulating plate.
2. Allow warm food and drinks to cool down outside the appliance.
3. Cover drinks or other liquids when placing them in the appliance Otherwise humidity
increases in the appliance. Therefore, the working time gets longer. Also covering drinks
and other liquids helps to preserve smell and taste.
4. Try to avoid keeping the doors open for long periods or opening the doors too frequently
as warm air will enter the cabinet and cause the compressor to switch on unnecessarily
often.
5. Keep the covers of the different temperature compartments (crisper, chiller ...etc) closed
6. Door gasket must be clean and pliable. Replace gaskets if worn.
EN -11-
Repositioning the door
• It is not possible to change the opening direction of your freezer door, if the door handle
on your freezer is installed from the front surface of the door.
• It is possible to change the opening direction of the door on models without any handles.
• If the door opening direction of your freezer may be changed, you should contact the
nearest Authorised Service Agent to have the opening direction changed.
BEFORE CALLING YOU’RE AFTER SALES SERVICEPART 6.
If your freezer is not operating as expected, check the solutions listed below before calling
an electrician or the after sales service.
What to do if your appliance does not operate:
Check that:
• The thermostat setting is not on « • » position
• Your freezer is plugged in and switched on,
• The mains switch in your home is not switched off,
• The socket is no longer functioning. To check this, plug in an appliance that you know is
working into the same socket.
What to do if your appliance performs poorly:
Check that:
• You have not overloaded the appliance,
• The thermostat setting is not on « 1 » position,
• The doors are closed properly,
• There is no dust on the condenser,
• There is enough space for air circulation at the rear and side of the appliance.
If there is noise:
The cooling gas which circulates in the refrigerator circuit may make a slight noise (bubbling
sound) even when the compressor is not running. This is normal. If these sounds are different
check that:
• The appliance is well levelled
• Nothing is touching the rear
• Nothing on or in the appliance is vibrating.
Recommendations
• If the appliance is not used for long time (for example during holidays) defrost and clean
the refrigerator, leaving the door open to prevent the formation of midew and smell.
• To stop the appliance completely, unplug it from the mains socket (for cleaning and when
the doors are left open).
• If the problem persists after you have followed all the instructions above, please consult
the nearest Authorised Service.
• The appliance you have purchased is designed for home type use and can be used only
at home and for the stated purposes. It is not suitable for commercial or common use. If
the consumer use the appliance in a way that does not comply with these features, we
emphasise that the producer and the dealer shall not be responsible for any repair or
failure within the guarantee period.
EN -10-
Defrosting
Freezer defrosting process
• Small amounts of frost will accumulate inside the freezer, depending upon the length of
time for which the door is left open or the amount of moisture introduced. It is essential to
ensure that no frost or ice is allowed to form at places where it will affect the close tting
of the door seal. This might allow air to penetrate the cabinet, encouraging continuous
running of the compressor. Thin frost formation is quite soft and can be removed with
a brush or plastic scraper. Do not use metal or sharp scrapers, mechanical devices or
other means to accelerate the defrosting process. Remove all dislodged frost from the
cabinet oor. It is not necessary to switch off the appliance for the removal of this frost.
• For the removal of heavy ice deposits, disconnect the appliance from the mains supply,
empty the contents into cardboard boxes and wrap in thick blankets or layers of paper to
keep them cold. Defrosting will be most effective if carried out when the freezer is nearly
empty and should be carried out as quickly as possible to prevent undue increase in the
temperature of the contents.
• Do not use metal or sharp scrapers, mechanical devices or other means to accelerate
the defrosting process. An increase in temperature of frozen food during defrosting will
shorten the storage life. If the contents are well wrapped and placed in a cool area they
should keep for several hours.
• Dry the inside of the compartment with a
sponge or a clean cloth.
• To accelerate the defrosting process,
place one or more bowls of warm water in
the freezer compartment.
• Examine the contents when replacing them in the freezer and if some of the food has
thawed out it should be eaten within 24 hours, or be cooked and re-frozen.
• After defrosting has nished clean the inside of the appliance with a solution of warm
water with a little bicarbonate of soda and then dry thoroughly. Wash all removable parts
in the same way and reassemble. Reconnect the appliance to the mains supply and
leave for 2 to 3 hours on setting « 5 » position before introducing the food back into the
freezer.
TRANSPORTATION AND CHANGING OF
INSTALLATION POSITION
PART 5.
Transportation and changing of Installation position
• The original packages and foamed polystyrene (PS) can be retained if required.
• During transportation, the appliance should be secured with a wide string or a strong
rope. The instructions written on the corrugated box must be followed while transporting.
• Before transporting or changing the installation position,
all the moving objects (ie, ice tray, scraper, drawers …)
should be taken out or xed with bands in order to prevent
them from getting damaged.
!Carry your fridge in the upright position.
EN -9-
• Frozen food should be transported in appropriate containers to maintain the quality of the
food and should be returned to the freezing surfaces of the unit in the shortest possible
time.
• If a package of frozen food shows the sign of humidity and abnormal swelling it is
probable that it has been previously stored at an unsuitable temperature and that the
contents have deteriorated.
• The storage life of frozen food depends on the room temperature, thermostat setting, how
often the door is opened, the type of food and the length of time required to transport
the product from the shop to your home. Always follow the instructions printed on the
packaging and never exceed the maximum storage life indicated.
• While freezing food, the maximum amount of fresh food (in kg) that can be frozen in 24
hours is indicated on the appliance label.

components.
• The freezer should be cleaned periodically using a solution of
bicarbonate of soda and lukewarm water.
• Clean the accessories separately with soap and water Do not
clean them in the dishwasher.
• Do not use abrasive products, detergents or soaps. After washing, rinse
with clean water and dry carefully. When you have nished cleaning,
reconnect the plugto the mains supply with dry hands.
• Clean the condenser with a broom at least twice a year. This will
help you to save on energy costs and increase productivity.
!The power supply must be disconnected.
