the voice alarm. The flash will remain until the temperature is ＜-1 °C.
PS: Main board locates in compressor compartment compartment
Additional information on the temperature
•The temperature inside the appliance is influenced by many factors. How you
set the temperature control dial depends on the ambient temperature, sun ex-
posure, how often you open the door and the amount of food stored.The middle
setting of the dial is most optimal in most cases.
•Do not put food into the fridge freezer before it has reached its operating temper-
ature, which takes minimum 4 hours.
•Do not change the temperature settings due to the change in the season of the
year. The ambient temperature increase will be detected by the sensor and the
compressor will be switched on automatically for a longer period of time in order
to maintain the temperature set inside the chambers.
•The slight changes in temperature are perfectly normal and may occur, for in-
stance during the storage of great quantities of fresh products in the fridge, or
when the door is open for a longer period of time.This will not affect the condition
of the stored foodstuff, and the temperature will quickly return to its set value.

OPERATION AND FUNCTIONS
Storage of food in the fridge-freezer
•The products should be placed on plates, in containers or packed in food
wrap. Distribute them evenly over the shelves.
•If the food contacts the rear wall, it may cause frosting or wetting of the products.
•Do not put dishes with hot food into the fridge
•Products which absorb flavours easily such as butter, milk, white cheese
and products with intense flavour, such as fish, smoked meat, hard cheese
must be placed on shelves, packed in food wrap or in tightly sealed containers.
•The storage of vegetables containing significant quantities of water will
cause the deposition of condensation on the vegetable containers, it does not
impact on the proper functioning of the fridge.
•Before putting the vegetables into the fridge, dry them well.
•Excessive moisture shortens the shelf life of vegetables, especially the
leafed vegetables.
•Do not wash the vegetables before storing in the refrigerator. Washing
removes the natural protection, therefore it is better to wash the vegetables
directly before consumption.
•It is recommended to place the products in freezer drawers 1, 2, 3* up to natural
loading capacity .**
1. Packed products
2. Shelf
3. Natural loading capacity
4. !
•Stacking of products on the freezer shelves is acceptable.*
•It is acceptable to place products beyond the natural loading capacity by
20-30 mm.**
•In order to increase the loading capacity of the freezer chamber and allow
the stacking of products on the freezer evaporator wire shelves up to
maximum height it is possible to remove drawers 1 and 2.*
Freezing food**
•Practically all the food products, except for vegetables consumed raw, such as
lettuce can be frozen.
•Only food products of the highest quality, divided into small portions for single
use, should be frozen.
•Products should be packed in materials that are odourless, resistant to air and
moisture penetration, and not susceptible to fat. Plastic bags, polyethylene and
aluminium sheets are the best wrapping materials.
•The packaging should be tight and should stick to the frozen products. Do not
use glass containers.
•Keep fresh and warm foodstu at ambient temperature away from the products,
which have already been frozen.
•We advise you not to place more of fresh food at a time to the freezer per day
(see table witch technical specication).
•In order to maintain optimum quality of the frozen food, reorganise the food that
is in the middle of the freezer, so that it does not touch the products that are not
yet frozen.
•It is recommended that you move the already frozen products to one side and
place the fresh products that are to be frozen on the opposite side, as close to
the rear and side walls as possible.
11

•To freezing products, use space marked !.
•Bear in mind that the temperature in the freezer is aected by several factors, in-
cluding the ambient temperature and the quantity of food products in the cham-
ber, the frequency of opening the door, the amount of frost in the freezer, and
the thermostat setting.
•If you cannot open the freezer door immediately after closing it, allow 1-2 min-
utes for the negative pressure to compensate, and try again to open the door.
The storage time for frozen products depends on their quality before freezing when
fresh, and on the storage temperature. The following storage periods are recom-
mended when the temperature of -18°C or lower is maintained:
Products Months
Beef 6-8
Veal 3-6
Giblets 1-2
Pork 3-6
Poultry 6-8
Eggs 3-6
Fish 3-6
Vegetables 10-12
Fruit 10-12
Do not store frozen food in rapid cooling chamber. Ice cubes can be prepared and
stored in this chamber.
Note: If the appliance does not have a freezer compartment (
!
), it is not suita-
ble for freezing foodstus.

USING THE REFRIGERATOR
EFFICIENTLY
Practical everyday tips
•Do not place fridges or freezers next to radiators, heaters, stoves or in direct
sunlight.
•Make sure that air vents are not covered up and clean the dust o them once or
twice a year.
•Select the right temperature: 6 to 8°C in your refrigerator and -18°C in your freez-
er is sucient.
•When on holiday, turn up the temperature in your fridge.
•Only open your fridge or freezer when necessary. It helps if you know what food
each contains and where it is located. Return food to the fridge or freezer as
soon as possible after you have used it so that it does not warm up too much.
•Wipe the inside of your fridge regularly with a cloth soaked in a mild detergent.
Appliances which are not self-defrosting will require regular defrosting. Do not
allow frost layers thicker than 10 mm to form.
•Keep the seal around the door clean, otherwise it will not shut properly. Always
replace broken seals.
Understanding the stars
$
Temperature is at least -6°C; sucient to store frozen food for about
a week. Drawers or compartments marked with one star used to be a
feature of (mostly) cheaper fridges.
#
Food can be stored at -12°C or below for 1-2 weeks without losing its
taste. Not suitable for freezing food.
@
This rating is mainly used to store foods at -18°C or below. Can also
be used to freeze up to 1 kilogram of fresh food.
!
This appliance is suitable for storing foods at -18°C or below and
freezing larger quantities of fresh foods.
Practical tips
Due to the natural circulation of the air in the appliance, there are dierent tempera-
ture zones in the refrigerator chamber.
•The coldest area is directly above the vegetables drawers. Use this area for all
delicate and highly perishable food e.g.:
- Fish, meat, poultry
- Sausage products, ready meals
- Dishes or baked goods containing eggs or cream
- Fresh dough, cake mixtures
- Pre-packed vegetable and other fresh food with a label stating it should be kept at
a temperature of approx 4OC.
•The warmest area is in the top section of the door. Use this for storing butter and
cheese.
13

Food that should not be stored in a refrigerator
•Not all food is suitable for storing in the refrigerator, particularly:
- Fruit and vegetables which are sensitive to cold, such as bananas, avocado, papa-
ya, passion fruit, aubergines, peppers, tomatoes and cucumbers.
- Fruit which is not yet ripe
- Potatoes
Warning:
Example of storing the food - see below
To achieve the most eective food preservation for the longest possible time and to
avoid wasting any food, position the products as shown in Figure 12. In addition, this
gure illustrates the layout of drawers, baskets and shelves, which allows the most
efficient use of energy.
Optimal temperature and storage conditions will extend product shelf life and opti-
mize electricity consumption. Optimal storage temperature range should be stated
on the food product packaging.
The fridge section is for short term food storage. Although low temperatures can
be maintained, extended periods of food storage is not recommended. As the
cold air circulates within the fridge, the temperature can vary between the
different sections. As such, foods should be stored in different sections according
to type.
1. Butter, cheeses etc.
2. Food in jars and bottles
3. Drinks, e.g. milk
4. Cooked food
5. Yogurts, preserves etc.
6. 75cl bottles or ready meals etc.
7. Fruit and vegetables
8. Fresh meat and fish/fruit and
vegetables
The fridge shelves can be moved
according to the storage requirements
within the fridge section. To move the
shelf, lift up the rear section and then
pull it outwards.
The most energy-saving configuration
requires drawers, food box and shelves
to be positioned in the product, please
refer to the above pictures.
14

DEFROSTING, WASHING AND
MAINTENANCE
Never clean the product’s casing or plastic parts using solvents or strong, abrasive
detergents (e.g. washing powders or creams)! Use mild liquid detergents and soft
cloths only. Do not use sponges.
Defrosting the fridge***
•Frost settles on the rear wall of the fridge chamber. It is removed automatically.
During the defrosting, the condensate, which contains contaminants may clog
the opening in the through. Should it occur, carefully unclog the opening with the
cleaning plug.
•The appliance operates in cycles: it refrigerates (then the frost settles on the rear
wall), and defrosts (water flows down the rear wall)
•Disconnect the appliance from the mains before cleaning by removing the plug
from the mains socket or switching off the fuse. Prevent water from penetrating
the control panel or the light.
•Do not use defrosting aerosols. They may cause the formation of an explosive
mixture, or contain solvents which may damage the plastic components of the
appliance and even be harmful to health.
•Make sure the water used for cleaning does not flow into the evaporation con-
tainer through the discharge opening.
•The whole appliance, except for the door gasket must be cleaned with a mild
cleaning detergent. The door gasket should be cleaned with water and wiped
dry.
•Wash all the accessories (vegetable containers, door shelves, glass shelves,
etc.).
Defrosting the freezer**
•It is recommended to combine defrosting the appliance with washing it.
•Excessive accumulation of ice on the freezing areas impairs the appliance’s
freezing capacity and increases the energy consumption.
•Defrost the appliance at least once or twice a year. In case of a higher ice build-
up, defrosting must be carried out more frequently.
•If there is food in the freezer, set the knob to the max. position about 4 hours
before the planned defrosting. This will ensure the possibility of storing the food
at the ambient temperature for a longer time.
•After taking the food out of the freezer, put it in a container, wrap it with several
layers of paper, a blanket and store it at a cool place.
•The defrosting operation should last as short as possible. Long storage of food
at the ambient temperature shortens their shelf life.
Defrost the freezer chamber following steps:**
•Switch of the appliance using the control panel and pull the plug out from the
socket..
•Open the door and remove the food from the freezer.
•Depending on the model, pull out the drainage tube located in the bottom of the
freezer compartment and place a suitable vessel underneath.
•Leave the door open, this will speed up the defrost process. Additionally, a pot
with hot water (not boiling) may be placed inside the freezer compartment.
•Wash the interior of the freezer and wipe it dry.
•Switch on the appliance as per the relevant point in the manual.
15

Automatic fridge defrosting****
The fridge chamber has been equipped with an automatic defrosting function. How-
ever, frost may settle on the rear wall of the fridge chamber. This happens usually,
when large quantities of fresh food products are stored in the fridge.
Automatic freezer defrosting****
The freezer chamber has been equipped with an automatic defrosting function (no-
frost).The food is frozen in the cooled circulation air, and the moisture from the freez-
er chamber is discharged outside. As a result, no ice and frost is produced in the
freezer and the products do not freeze on each other.
Washing the fridge and freezer chambers manually****
It is recommended to wash the fridge and freezer chambers at least once a
year. This prevents the formation of bacteria and bad odour. Switch off the
appliance, remove the food from the chambers and wash them using water with a
mild detergent. Then, wipe the chambers dry with a cloth.
Taking out and putting in the shelves*****
Slide the shelf out, then slide it in as much as possible so that its clamp could fit the
guide groove.
Taking out and putting in the door shelf*****
Lift the door shelf, remove it and put it back from the top into its required position.

Certain sounds can be heard during normal use of the refrigerator, which do not
aect its correct operation.
Sounds, which can be easily prevented:
•noise caused by the appliance which is not level - adjust the position with the ad-
justable turn-in front feet. Alternatively, place pads made of soft material under
the rear rollers, especially when the appliance is placed on tiles.
•touching the adjacent piece of furniture - move the refrigerator away.
•creaking of the drawers or shelves - take out and put back the drawer or shelf.
•sounds of clinking bottles - move bottles apart.
Sounds heard during normal use are mainly due to operation of the thermostat, com-
pressor (switching on) and cooling system (thermal expansion and contraction of the
radiator caused by ow of the cooling agent).
