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.
•The unit should only be transported in its vertical position; do not tilt any more than
30°.
•Once the unit has been positioned, wait for about 30 minutes before it is connected to
the mains.
If the unit has been tilted more than 30° during transport:Wait at least 4
hours before connecting the appliance to the power supply. If this is not

TEMPERATURE REGULATION
The appliance is activated by connecting it to the mains.
The temperature in the appliance is controlled using the thermostat knob 2(see fig. 1) by
turning it to one side or the other. Turning the thermostat dial clockwise reduces the
temperature in the appliance. The temperature indication in digits is shown beside the
thermostat knob. The number “0, 2, 3, 4, 5”do not mean a specific temperatures.
The temperature can be set within a 0 °C to +10 °C range.
The temperature is regulated on a scale of five digits.
0= Compressor is switched off. WARNING! Electric current is not switched off.
With the temperature control in position ‘0’, only the compressor is switched off, while the
fan is still running.
1= highest temperature (lowest cooling)
5= lowest temperature (highest cooling)
If the room is cool, the appliance cools less. The temperature in the appliance may
therefore rise. Use the thermostat wheel to set a lower temperature.
THE TEMPERATURE IN THE APPLIANCE COMPARTMENT MAY VARY DEPENDING
ON AMBIENT TEMPERATURE, THE AMOUNT OF BEVERAGES, THE TEMPERATURE
OF THE BEVERAGES, AND HOW OFTEN THE APPLIANCE DOOR IS OPENED AND
CLOSED. Therefore we recommend:
•locate the appliance away from heat sources,
•beverages placed in the appliance should not be warmer than the room temperature,
•appliance door must not to be left open.
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.
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.
•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.
•Regularly clean the thaw water channel space in the refrigerator
with a special cleaner for that purpose (see fig.).

8
•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
It is recommended that changing the opening direction of the doors should be done with a
helper. You will need two spanners No. 8 and No. 10 and a head screwdriver.
When changing the opening direction of the doors, YOU CAN NOT lay the
refrigerator horizontally!
Warning: Always disconnect the unit from the mains before any maintenance or repair
work is carried out.
