In󰀬alling and operating your fridge freezer
Before using your fridge freezer for the r󰀬 time, please pay attention to the following points:
• The operating voltage for your fridge freezer is 220-240 V at 50Hz.
• The plug mu󰀬 be accessible after in󰀬allation.
• Your fridge freezer may have an odour when it is operated for the r󰀬 time. This is normal
and the odour will fade when your fridge freezer 󰀬arts to cool.
• Before connecting your fridge freezer, ensure that the information on the data plate
(voltage and connected load) matches that of the mains electricity supply. If in doubt,
consult a qualied electrician.
• Insert the plug into a socket with an e󰀩cient ground connection. If the socket has no
ground contact or the plug does not match, we recommend you consult a qualied
electrician for assi󰀬ance.
• The appliance mu󰀬 be connected with a properly in󰀬alled fused socket. The power
supply (AC) and voltage at the operating point mu󰀬 match with the details on the name
plate of the appliance (the name plate is located on the inside left of the appliance).
• We do not accept responsibility for any damages that occur due to ungrounded usage.
• Place your fridge freezer where it will not be exposed to direct sunlight.
• Your fridge freezer mu󰀬 never be used outdoors or exposed to rain.
• Your appliance mu󰀬 be at lea󰀬 50 cm away from 󰀬oves, gas ovens and heater cores,
and at lea󰀬 5 cm away from electrical ovens.
• If your fridge freezer is placed next to a deep freezer, there mu󰀬 be at lea󰀬 2 cm between
them to prevent humidity forming on the outer surface.
• Do not cover the body or top of fridge freezer with lace. This will a󰀨ect the performance
of your fridge freezer.
• Clearance of at lea󰀬 150 mm is required at the top of your appliance. Do

THE VARIOUS FUNCTION AND POSSIBILITIES
Information about New Generation Cooling Technology
Fridges with new-generation cooling technology have a di󰀨erent operating
sy󰀬em to 󰀬atic fridges. Other (󰀬atic) fridges may experience a build up
of ice in the freezer compartment due to door openings and humidity in
the food. In such fridges, regular defro󰀬ing is required; the fridge mu󰀬
be switched o󰀨, the frozen food moved to a suitable container and the
ice which has formed in the freezer compartment removed.
In fridges with new-generation cooling technology, a fan blows dry cold
air evenly throughout the fridge and freezer compartments. The cold air
cools your food evenly and uniformly, preventing humidity and ice build-up.
In the refrigerator compartment, air blown by the fan, located at the top
of the refrigerator compartment, is cooled while passing through the gap
behind the air duct. At the same time, the air is blown out through the
holes in the air duct, evenly spreading cool air throughout the refrigerator
compartment.
There is no air passage between the freezer and refrigerator compartments,
therefore preventing the mixing of odours.
As a result, your fridge, with new-generation cooling technology, provides
you with ease of use as well as a huge volume and ae󰀬hetic appearance.

ARRANGING FOOD IN THE APPLIANCE
Refrigerator compartment
For normal operating conditions, set the temperature of the cooler compartment to +4 or +6 oC.
• To reduce humidity and avoid the consequent formation of fro󰀬, always 󰀬ore liquids in
sealed containers in the refrigerator. Fro󰀬 tends to concentrate in the colde󰀬 parts of
the evaporating liquid and, in time, your appliance will require more frequent defro󰀬ing.
• Never place warm food in the refrigerator. Warm food should be allowed to cool at room
temperature and should be arranged to ensure adequate air circulation in the refrigerator
compartment.
• Make sure no items are in direct contact with the rear wall of the appliance as fro󰀬 will
develop and packaging will 󰀬ick to it. Do not open the refrigerator door frequently.
• We recommend that meat and clean sh are loosely wrapped and 󰀬ored on the glass
shelf ju󰀬 above the vegetable bin where the air is cooler, as this provides the be󰀬
󰀬orage conditions.
• Store loose fruit and vegetable items in the crisper containers.
• Store loose fruit and vegetables in the crisper.
• Storing fruit and vegetables separately helps prevent ethylene-sensitive vegetables
(green leaves, broccoli, carrot, etc.) being a󰀨ected by ethylene-releaser fruits (banana,
peach, apricot, g etc.).
• Do not put wet vegetables into the refrigerator.
• Storage time for all food products depends on the initial quality of the food and an
uninterrupted refrigeration cycle before refrigerator 󰀬orage.
• To avoid cross-contamination do not 󰀬ore meat products with fruit and vegetables.
Water leaking from meat may contaminate other products in the refrigerator. You should
package meat products and clean any leakages on the shelves.
• Do not put food in front of the air ow passage.
• Consume packaged foods before the recommended expiry date.
NOTE: Potatoes, onions and garlic should not be 󰀬ored in the refrigerator.
The table below is a quick guide to show you the mo󰀬 e󰀩cient way to 󰀬ore the major
food groups in your refrigerator compartment.

Freezer compartment
For normal operating conditions, set the temperature of the freezer compartment to -18 or
-20 oC.
• The freezer is used for 󰀬oring frozen food, freezing fresh food, and making ice cubes.
• To use the maximum capacity of the freezer compartment, use the glass shelves for the
upper and middle section, and use the lower basket for the bottom section.
• Use the fa󰀬 freezing shelf to freeze home cooking (and any other food which needs to
be frozen quickly) more quickly because of the freezing shelf’s greater freezing power.
Fa󰀬 freezing shelf is the bottom drawer of the freezer compartment.
• For freezing fresh food; wrap and seal fresh food properly, that is the packaging should
be air tight and shouldn’t leak. Special freezer bags, aluminum foil polythene bags and
pla󰀬ic containers are ideal.
• Do not 󰀬ore fresh food next to frozen food as it can thaw the frozen food.
• Before freezing fresh food, divide it into portions that can be consumed in one sitting.
• Consume thawed frozen food within a short period of time after defro󰀬ing
• Never place warm food in the freezer compartment as it will thaw the frozen food.
• Always follow the manufacturer's in󰀬ructions on food packaging when 󰀬oring frozen
food. If no information is provided food, should not be 󰀬ored for more than 3 months
from the date of purchase.
• When purchasing frozen food, make sure that it has been 󰀬ored under appropriate
conditions and that the packaging is not damaged.
• Frozen food should be transported in appropriate containers and placed in the freezer
as soon as possible.
• Do not purchase frozen food if the packaging shows signs of humidity and abnormal
swelling. It is probable that it has been 󰀬ored at an unsuitable temperature and that
the contents have deteriorated.
• The 󰀬orage life of frozen food depends on the room temperature, the thermo󰀬at 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 in󰀬ructions printed on the
packaging and never exceed the maximum 󰀬orage life indicated.
• The maximum amount of fresh food (in kg) that can be frozen in 24 hours is indicated
on the appliance label.
NOTE: If you attempt to open the freezer door immediately after closing it, you will nd that it will
not open easily. This is normal. Once equilibrium has been reached, the door will open easily.
Important note:
• Never refreeze thawed frozen food.
• The ta󰀬e of some spices found in cooked dishes (anise, basilica, watercress, vinegar,
assorted spices, ginger, garlic, onion, mu󰀬ard, thyme, marjoram, black pepper, etc.)
changes and they assume a 󰀬rong ta󰀬e when they are 󰀬ored for a long period of time.
Therefore, add small amounts of spices to food to be frozen, or the desired spice should
be added after the food has thawed.
• The 󰀬orage time of food is dependent on the type of oil used. Suitable oils are margarine,
calf fat, olive oil and butter. Unsuitable oils are peanut oil and pig fat.
