Short vacation
There is no need to disconnect the appliance from
the power supply if you will be away for less than
three weeks. Use up perishable food, freeze other
food.
Long vacation
Remove all the food if you are going away for three
weeks or more.
1. Empty the ice bucket.
Fix some wooden or plastic wedges to the upper
part of both doors with adhesive tape and leave the
doors open enough for air to circulate inside both
compartments. This will prevent odour and mould
from setting in.
Moving
1. Take out all internal parts.
2. Wrap them well, and fix them together with
adhesive tape so that they do not bang together
or get lost.
3. Screw the adjustable feet so that they do not
touch the support surface.
4. Close and fix both doors with adhesive tape and,
again using adhesive tape, fix the power cable to
the appliance.
Power failure
In the event of a power failure, call the local office of
your electricity supply company and ask how long it
is going to last.
Note: Bear in mind that a full appliance will stay cold
longer than a partially filled one.
If ice crystals are still visible on the food, it may be
frozen again, although flavour and aroma may be
affected.
If food is found to be in a poor condition, it is best to
throw it away.
For power failures lasting up to 24 hours.
1. Keep both doors of the appliance closed. This
will allow the stored food to stay cold as long as
possible.
For power failures lasting more than 24 hours.
1. Empty the freezer compartment and arrange the
food in a portable freezer. If this type of freezer is
not available and, likewise, no artificial ice packs
are available, try to use up the food, which is more
easily perishable.
2. Empty the ice bucket.
RECOMANDATION IN CASE
OF NO USE OF THE APPLIANCE
Install the appliance in a dry, well ventilated room far away from any heat source (e.g. radiator, cooker,
etc.) and in a place not exposed directly to the sun. If required, use an insulating plate.
To guarantee adequate ventilation, leave a space on both sides and above the appliance. The distance
between the rear of the appliance and the wall behind the appliance should be 50mm. A reduction of
this space will increase the Energy consumption of product.
Insufficient ventilation on back of the product increases energy consumption and decreases cooling
efficiency.
The internal temperatures of the appliance may be affected by the ambient temperature, frequency of
door opening, as well as location of the appliance. Temperature setting should take into consideration
these factors.
Allow warm food and drinks to cool down before placing in the appliance.
Do not obstruct the fan with food items.
After placing the food check if the door of compartments closes properly, especially the freezer door.
Reduce to a minimum door opening.
When thawing frozen food, place them in the refrigerator. The low temperature of the frozen products
cools the food in the refrigerator.
For appliances with special compartments (Fresh Food Compartment, Zero Degrees Box, …) they can
be removed when not in use.
Positioning of the shelves in the refrigerator has no impact on the efficient usage of energy. Food should
be placed on the shelves in such way to ensure proper air circulation (food should not touch each other
and distance between food and rear wall should be kept).
You can increase the storage capacity of frozen food by removing the flap and / or basket (according to
the Product Sheet), maintaining the same energy consumption.
The condenser (the coil placed in the rear of the appliance) should be cleaned regularly.
Damaged or leaky gasket must be replaced as soon as possible.
