ture between 16°C and 38°C. If these temperatures are ex- ceeded, i.e. colder or warmer, the appliance will not operate correctly. If the ambient temperatures are exceeded for long periods, the temperature in the freezer section will rise above -18°C and food spoilage may occur......... 47 46 GB GB Position different food in different compartments according to be below table. Refrigerator compartments Type of food Crisper drawer (salad drawer) Fridge shelf – bottom Chiller (box/drawer) Fridge shelf – middle Fridge shelf –top Door or balconies of fridge compartment . Foods with natural preservatives, such as jams, juices, drinks, condiments. . Do not store perishable foods. . Fruits, herbs and vegetables should be placed separately in the crisper bin. . Do not store bananas, onions, potatoes, garlic in the refrigerator. Raw meat, poultry, fish (for short-term storage) Dairy products, eggs Foods that do not need cooking, such as ready-to-eat foods, deli meats, leftovers. Freezer drawer (s)/shelf . Foods for long-term storage. . Bottom drawer/shelf for raw meat, poultry, fish. . Middle drawer/shelf for frozen vegetables, chips. . Top drawer/shelf for ice cream, frozen fruit, frozen baked goods. • Remove all packaging materials from the appliance. Wash the inside of the cabinet with lukewarm water and bicar- bonate of soda (5ml to 0.5 liter of water). Dry the appliance thoroughly.

ing, set the thermostat control to the maximum position for at least 2 hours before introducing food to be stored, and then readjust to the normal position. • If there is a power failure, do not open the door. Frozen food should not be affected if the failure lasts for less than 12 hours. If the failure is longer, then the food should be checked and either eaten immediately or cooked and then re-frozen. Setting the thermostat knob The refrigerator is controlled with a thermostat knob located inside the fridge, towards the upper right-hand corner. Turn the knob from the STOP (0) position towards the higher numbers for colder temperatures. The knob can be adjusted from setting 1 to 7. Higher settings on the knob (higher numbers) mean lower temperatures (colder) in all compartments of the appliance. Changes of the ambient temperature affect temperature in the interior of the appliance so choose a correct setting of the tem­ perature control knob, depending on your ambient conditions. In the STOP (0) position the appliance does not operate (the cool­ ing system is switched off), but power supply is not interrupted. Set the thermostat knob to a middle position to achieve -18°C in the freezer compartment. Please Note: If the appliance is switched off you must wait at least 5 minutes before restarting the appliance or re-inserting the plug into the wall outlet. This is to allow the protection device in the compres­ sor to reset. If the compressor fails to start correctly remove the plug and wait for 5 minutes before you try again then the compressor should restart normally. The storage temperature may be affected by: • The room temperature • How often the door is opened • How much food is stored • Position of the appliance When you set the correct temperature, all these factors men­ tioned above shall be taken into account. Temperature indicate In order to help you get the correct adjustment of your device, it is equipped with a temperature gauge placed in the coldest area. For the proper storage of food in your refrigerator and in particu­ lar in the coldest area, make sure that “OK” appears in the tem­ perature indicator. The symbol on the left side indicates the location of the coldest area of your refrigerator. It defines the height of this area. If “OK” is not displayed, the average temperature in this area will be very high. You ought to adjust the thermostat to a colder setting. 49 48 GB GB

to wait for the stabilization of the temperature inside the unit before proceeding, if necessary, to a new setting. Do change the position of the thermostat gradually and wait at least 12 hours before re-checking. NOTE: after charging the device for fresh food or after repeated or prolonged door openings, it is normal that the inscription “OK” does not appear in the temperature indicator. Wait at least 12 hours before readjusting the thermostat. Shopping for frozen food The appliance is rated as a 4 star freezer and can freeze fresh food and store pre-frozen food. When you are buying frozen food, look at the Storage Guidelines on the packaging. You will be able to store each item of frozen food for the period shown against the 4 star rating. Freezing fresh food Ensure that your freezing operations are carried out under the most hygienic conditions as freezing alone does not improve the food. Never put hot or even warm foodstuffs into the freezer. Prior to freezing the food, food should always be covered tightly with foil, plastic film, placed in plastic bags or stored in airtight containers. This will prevent food from dehydrating and to pre­ vent any strong odors of some foods transferring to milder ones. To freeze raw meat, wrap in plastic bags or in airtight containers and place on the lowest shelf to avoid cross contamination. Do not allow raw meat to come into contact with cooked foods. Fruit and vegetables should be thoroughly cleaned and placed in the crisper. Milk and other liquids should be sealed with lids and placed in the bottle shelf in the door. NOTE: The ambient temperature of the freshly stored food and how often the door is opened affect the temperature in the refrigerator. If required, change the thermostat temperature set­ tings. Storing frozen food All frozen food you purchase should be placed in the freezer as soon as possible to avoid them from defrosting and spoiling. All storage recommendations printed on the packaging of frozen food by the manufacturer should always be followed. When using the freezer for the first time or after defrosting, set the thermostat knob to the maximum position for at least 2 hours before introducing food to be stored, and then readjust it to the normal position. Energy-saving tips Install the fridge or freezer in a cool place out of direct sunlight and away from cookers, heaters, dishwashers or any hot air emit­ ting items. Do not set the fridge and freezer temperatures lower than neces­ sary. Set the internal temperature within the correct range e.g. adjust the thermostat at middle position for 4°C in the fridge compartment and -18°C in the freezer respectively. 51 50 GB GB

or freezer. This will prevent the internal temperature of the fridge from rising. Keep your fridge full, but not over crowded, this helps reduce “cold” air loss. Meanwhile, avoid overloading the fridge or freezer. Try to leave about 20% free space for air circulation. To prevent cold air escaping, limit the frequency of opening door. When retuning from shopping, sort foods to be kept in your fridge before opening the door. Only open the door to put food in or take it out. Make sure the door seal is clean and in good condition. It should hold a piece of paper tightly in place when shut. Defrost regularly or when ice is more than 5 mm thick. Thick ice covering the inner sides significantly increases energy use. The combination of the drawers, baskets and shelves shown in the device description is optimal for efficient energy savings. Changing the combination proposition could alter the efficiency. Use the water dispenser With the water dispenser, you can obtain cold water easily with­ out opening the refrigerator door. Detach and clean water tank. 1. Hold both sides of tank to lift out it. 2. Pull tank cover to detach it from tank. Tank cover Water tank 3. Wholly clean tank balcony, cover and tank. 4. Replace water tank, cover and tank balcony. Fill the water tank with water 1. Ensure the water tank is stable before fill it. 2. Open the lid on tank. 3. Fill with water up to max level. If it’s filled higher than this, it may overflow when the lid is closed. CAUTION! Fix water tank to the fridge door tightly. If not, water tank may not be operated correctly. Using the dispenser Place a cup underneath the water outlet and push gently against the dispenser lever with your cup. Make sure the cup is in line with the dispenser to prevent the water from bouncing out. Dispenser lever Water catcher Lid 53 52 GB GB

loose the dispenser level. The water will be collected in the water catcher. Empty the water catcher when it is full. If not, the water catcher will overflow. Reverse door This refrigerator can be opened either from the left or right side. The default way of opening the door is from the right left. ou want to open the door from the left side, please follow the in­ structions below. Tools Required: Phillips style screwdriver / Flat blated screwdriver / Hexagonal spanner • If you want to have the door swing reversed, we recommend that you contact a qualified technician.

time the compressor stops. The defrost water is automatically routed to the drain port and into a tray placed on the top of the compressor to the rear of the appliance from which it evaporates. Make sure the drain port on the fridge at the rear of the appliance is kept clear. FREEZER DEFROSTING Frost will accumulate inside the freezer depending upon the length of time during 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 fitting of the door seal. This might allow air to penetrate the cabinet, thus 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 floor. For the removal of thin frost it is not necessary to switch off the appliance. For the removal of heavy ice deposits disconnect the appliance from the mains supply and 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 empty, and it should be carried out as quickly as possible. An increase in temperature of frozen food packages during de­ frosting will shorten the storage life. Provided that the contents are well wrapped and placed in a cool area, they should keep for several hours. Examine the contents when replacing them in the freezer and if some of the packages have thawed out. After defrosting is finished clean the inside 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 number 7 before introducing the food back into the freezer and setting the thermostat to your normal setting. NOISE FROM YOUR APPLIANCE You may notice some rather unusual noises. The noises are caused by circulation of refrigerant in the cooling system. It has become more pronounced since the introduction of CFC free gases. This is not a fault and will not affect the performance of your fridge. 61 60 GB GB

If the appliance is not in use for a long period of time, proceed as follows: 1. Disconnect from the mains supply. 2. Clean and dry the inside (see “Cleaning and maintenance”). 3. Leave the door open to prevent any unpleasant smells from building up while the appliance is not in use. NOTES FOR USE Do clean and defrost your appliance regularly. Do check contents of the compartments every so often. Do store commercially prepared food in accordance with the instructions given on the packets. Do choose high quality fresh food and be sure it is thoroughly clean before freezing it. Do wrap all food in food quality polythene bags or air tight con­ tainers and make sure any air is excluded. Do Not store poisonous or any dangerous substances in your freezer. It is designed for the freezing of edible foodstuffs only. Do Not consume food which has been frozen for an excessive length of time. Do Not leave the door open for long periods, as this will make the appliance more costly to run and cause excessive ice formation. Do Not use sharp objects such as knives to remove the ice from the appliance. Only use a plastic scraper. Do Not put hot food into the appliance. Let it cool down to room temperature. Do Not put liquid-filled bottles or sealed cans containing carbon­ ated liquids into the freezer as they may burst. Do Not give children ice-cream and water ices direct from the freezer as the low temperature may cause ‘freezer burns’ on the lips. Do Not try to keep frozen food which has thawed; it should be eaten within 24 hours or cooked and re-frozen. CHANGING THE LIGHT BULB 1. Set the thermostat knob to the off position (0) then unplug the appliance. 2. Remove the food. 3. Push upward to remove the light shield. 4.
