mode. See also the chapter on using the refrigerator.  
Temperature of the refrigerator and freezer can be set  
by knobs "F" and "B", respectively.The set temperature is  
seen blinking on the display.  
For everyday use the setting in the refrigerator should be  
+5°C; in the freezer the setting would be -18°C  
recommended, or slightly colder.  
Allow the appliance to run for a period of 24 hours  
whenever the temperature setting is changed. This will  
allow the temperature to stabilise inside the appliance.  
The temperature within the refrigerator is influenced by  
varying factors,the thermostat setting,the ambient room  
temperature, the frequency that the door is opened and  
closed and the quantity of food stored within.  
When the coldest temperature possible is set -  
when there are eases of increased demand e.g.  
during heatwaves - the compressor may operate  
continually. This does not cause damages to the  
appliance.

Using the refrigerator  
For adequate cooling developing interior air  
Storing in the refrigerator  
When placing the different kinds of food take into  
consideration the sketch below in figure:  
circulation is necessary. For this reason you are asked  
not to cover the air circulation gaps behind the shelves (e.g.  
with tray etc.).  
1. Confectionery, ready-cooked foods, foods in  
dishes, fresh meat, cold cuts, drinks  
Do not put hot food into the refrigerator.  
Allow it to reach room temperature naturally.  
In this way unnnecessary frost building up can be  
avoided.  
2. Milk, dairy products, foods in dishes  
3. Fruits, vegetables, salads  
4. Cheese, butter  
Foods can take over odours from each other.  
So it is essential to put foods in closed dishes  
or wrap them in cellophane, aluminium foil, grease-  
proof paper or cling film before placing them into  
the refrigerator. This way foods will keep their  
moisture e.g. vegetables will not dry out after some  
days.  
5. Eggs  
6. Yoghurt, sour cream  
7. Small bottles, soft drinks  
8. Big bottles, drinks  
Drawer  
The drawer is suitable for storing fruit and vegetables.  
There is a separator inside the drawer that can be placed in  
different position to allow for the subdivision best suited to  
personal needs.  
Storage time and  
temperature of foods  
The storage time chart at the end of the instruction  
book gives information about storage time.  
The storage time can not be determined exactly in  
advance, as it depends on the freshness and handling of  
the cooled food. That is why the storage time made  
known is only informative.  
If you do not want to use up deep-frozen foods bought  
immediately they can be stored for about 1 day (until  
defrosting) in the refrigerator.  
Shopping mode  
Before putting a bigger amount of food into the refrigerator  
(e.g. when returning from shopping) press the function  
selection button once or twice as occasion requires to  
obtain shopping mode (the shopping mode symbol shown  
on the display). In this manner the refrigerator reaches its  
lowest possible temperature to cool down the bigger  
amount of food.  
To exit from shopping mode press the function selection  
button again. Should you not do so, after a while the  
refrigerator returns to automatic mode.  
12  
 
Using the freezer  
Freezing  
Storing in the freezer  
The appliance can be used to freeze fresh food of quantity  
specified on the data label. Freezing different products  
should always be done after proper preparation as follows.  
Press the function selection button once or twice as  
occasion requires to obtain super freezing mode (the super  
freezing mode symbol shown on the display).  
Put the previously frozen food to another basket or baskets.  
Put the fresh food into the lower basket, leaving enough  
space for airflow.  
It is practical to replace frozen products into the  
basket(s) after freezing has finished. Doing this you could  
make room in the freezing compartment for another  
freezing. Intermediate freezing does not deteriorate  
foods already stored.  
In large quantities of food are to be stored, remove the  
baskets except the lowermost one from appliance and  
place food on the shelves.  
Do not forget to keep to the storage time given  
on the packaging of frozen products if you buy  
them frozen.  
It is safe to store quick-frozen, frozen foods only if  
they have not dissolved even for a short time until  
placing them into the freezer. If the deep-frozen food has  
already dissolved, refreezing is not recommended, it has  
to be used up as soon as possible.  
Run the appliance this way for 24 hours.  
To exit from super freezing mode press the function  
selection button again. Should you not do so, after a while  
the freezer returns to automatic mode.  
Never freeze food in bigger quantity than  
given in the 'Technical data' at the same time,  
otherwise freezing will not be thorough and after  
dissolving various deterioration may take place  
(losing taste and aroma, lysing, etc.).  
How to make ice cubes  
Do not make ice during freezing preferably, because  
making ice reduces freezing capacity.  
To make ice cubes fill the enclosed ice cube tray with  
water and put it to the frozen food compartment.Setting  
thermostatic control knob to maximum position can  
shorten preparing time. After finishing do not forget to  
reset the thermostatic control to the suitable position.  
Ready ice cubes can be taken out of the tray under  
running water then twist or hit it.

Disconnect the appliance from the electricity supply,  
before you carry out any cleaning or maintenance work.  
The freezer is Frost Free, defrosting is completly automatic.  
The defrosted water will flow down a tube located at the  
back of the appliance to a reservoir located over the  
compressor (Motor). The heat from the compressor will  
cause the water in the reservior to evaporate.  
Refrigerator  
The defrosting system in the refrigerator is "automatic  
defrost" The refrigerator will defrost without any  
intervention from the user.  
The thermostat will interrupt the cooling cycle at regular  
intervals and the temperature of the cooling surfaces will  
increase to above 0'c and any ice crystals will defrost. Once  
the temperature of the cooling surfaces reach +3' to +4'c  
the thermostat control restarts the cooling cycle.The length  
of the defrosting cycle will depend on the temperature in  
side the refrigerator, the quantity of food stored and the  
rooms ambient temperature.  
The defrosted water will flow down to a channel located at  
the bottom of the inside back wall and flow through an  
outlet to a reservoir located over the compressor (Motor).  
The heat from the compressor will cause the water in the  
reservoir to evaporate.  
Clean the equipment regularly.  
Don't use detergents, abrasive or strongly  
odorous cleaners, waxy polishing agents,  
disinfectants or alcoholic products for cleaning  
the equipment.  
Pull out the wall plug of the equipment from the outlet.  
Internal cleaning  
Clean the internal parts of the equipment and the  
accessories with warm water and Bicarbonate of Soda (5  
ml to 0.5 litre of water).  
Rinse and dry everything thoroughly.  
Clean the door seal profile with clean water.  
External cleaning  
Clean the external parts of the equipment with warm  
water and Bicarbonate of Soda (5 ml to 0.5 litre of  
water).  
Dust will build up on the condenser (the black grill at the  
back of the appliance) and the reservoir; this can inhibit  
the efficiency of the fridge freezer. It is recommended to  
clean both on a six monthly basis.  
After cleaning, reconnect the equipment to the mains  
supply.  
Check the outlet on a regular basis to ensure  
it is clean and no foods or objects are  
obstructing the flow of water.If the outlet is blocked,  
water will gather at the bottom of the refrigerator.  
If the defrosted water seeps into the insulation of  
the refrigerator this could cause failure of the  
insulation.  
When the refrigerator is not  
in use  
Clean the water outlet with the pipe cleaner  
supplied and stored in the outlet.  
If the refrigerator is to be turned off for some time,  
follow these steps.  
Unplug the appliance.  
Remove foods from the refrigerator.  
Defrost and clean it as written before.  
Defrost and clean as detailed above.  
Trouble shooting  
Changing the Light Bulb  
Should the light fail to work you can change it as below:  
Disconnect the appliance from the electricity supply.  
Press the rear hook (1) and at the same time slide the  
cover in the direction indicated by the arrow (2). So the  
bulb can be replaced. (Bulb type:T 25 230-240V, 25 W,  
E 14 thread)  
After changing the bulb replace the cover, snap it in place  
and plug the appliance back into the mains supply.  
Clean the melting water outlet with the supplied pipe  
scraper that can be seen in the figure.The pipe scraper has  
to be stored in the outlet.  
The most typical case of clogging up in the melting water  
outlet when you put food wrapped in some paper into the  
appliance and this paper contacts back plate of the  
refrigerator and freezes to it. If you remove the food right  
at this moment the paper will tear and it can cause clogging  
up in the outlet by getting into it.  
So you are asked to be careful - because of the above - when  
placing foods wrapped in paper into the appliance.  
It is possible during a heatwave that compressor will  
operate continuously; during this time the defrosting  
cycle will not work.
