before the ﬁrst use

Before you use the appliance for the ﬁrst time, please do as

follows: Carefully unpack the appliance and remove all the

packaging material. Keep the material (plastic, polystyrene and

cardboard) out of reach of children. Check the appliance after

unpacking for any damage, possible from transportation. Place

the appliance on a ﬂat and stable surface. Make sure there is

enough open space around the appliance for the intake and/or

outlet vents. A minimum clearance of 10 cm is required between

the appliance and any adjacent walls. The appliance needs

good ventilation for easy dissipation of heat, high efﬁciency of

refrigeration and low power consumption.

Leave the appliance to stand for at least 3 hours before you

insert the plug into the socket.

First clean the interior of the appliance. Use warm water and a

neutral detergent. After cleaning, rinse the interior with clean

water and rub dry. Leave the appliance to dry for 1 to 2 hours.

usage

The appliance features internal controls. Check whether the

thermostat (2) is set on OFF. Check that the voltage in your

home corresponds with the voltage printed on the back of the

appliance and plug it in a socket.

Set the temperature with the thermostat (2) and choose a

setting between 1 and 6 (setting 1-4 for freezer VR550). We

advise to set the appliance on setting 3 or 4 (setting 2 for freezer

VR550).

The appliance now cools continuously until the set temperature

has been reached. Do not place anything in the appliance until

the set temperature is reached. This usually takes 2 or 3 hours.

Then set the thermostat at the desired setting and place food

into the refrigerator.

Use the highest setting 6 (setting 4 for freezer VR550) only for

making ice cubes or when you put new frozen products in the

freezing compartment.

Set the appliance on a higher setting when the ambient air

temperature rises to maintain the temperature inside the

appliance.

To turn the appliance off, set the thermostat (2) to OFF.

Note:

The ambient air temperature, how often the door is opened

and the position of the appliance can affect the internal

temperature. These factors must be taken into account when

setting the thermostat.

• Do not put hot food into the refrigerator.

• Never introduce volatile, inﬂammable or explosive ﬂuids

such as alcohol, acetone or petrol because of the risk of

explosion.

• It is advisable to wrap meat and ﬁsh to avoid odours.

• Leave sufﬁcient space between the food to enable air to

circulate correctly between them. Similarly, when storing

them, avoid puttin food items in contact with eacht

other.

• Do not place food items in contact with the cold wall

at the back of the appliance. The shelves have a stop to

avoid this.

• The door should not be left open any longer than

necessary.

• Do not freeze too large an amount of food at one time; the

faster the food is frozen, the longer is preserves its qualities.

• Place frozen food in the freezer compartment as soon as

possible after purchase. Make sure that it doesn’t defrost

during transport.

• Do not store glass bottles or containers with liquids in the

freezer which will freeze. The freezing may cause the bottles

to break. Highly carbonated drinks can even explode. Never

keep lemonade, fruit juice, beer, wine, champagne, etc. in the

freezer.

tips

• High ambient temperatures have a negative effect on energy

use. Keep the appliance in a position away from direct

sunlight or other sources of heat.

• Keep ventilation openings free. Clogged openings lead to

higher use of energy.

• Try not to open the door too often, especially when the

weather is wet and hot. Once you open the door, mind to

close it as soon as possible.

• The space between the shelves and the rear wall of the

refrigerator compartment must be unobstructed to allow

the cool air to circulate. Therefore don’t place any food items

against the back.

• Turn the thermostat to a lower setting when the

circumstances allow it.

• Before storing fresh cooked food, make sure the food has

cooled at least to room temperature.

• Ice and frost layer increase energy consumption, so clean the

appliance as soon as the layer is 3 to 5 mm thick.

• If the gasket is damaged or if it turns out that the sealing is

poor, the energy consumption is substantially higher. To

restore efﬁciency, replace the gasket.

• Always consider the instructions, otherwise the

energyconsumption is substantially higher.

defrosting

Defrost the freezer compartment when the layer of ice reaches

a thickness of 3 to 5 mm.

Turn the thermostat (2) to OFF and unplug the appliance. Keep

the contents of the freezer in a cool place and wrapped in

blankets or newspapers.

Place a container under the freezing compartment (4) and wait

for the ice to defrost. You can speed up the defrosting process

by placing a bowl of hot water in the freezer.

Remove the ice with the included ice scraper.

Warning: Never remove the ice with the aid of sharp objects,

defrost sprays, a hair-drier, a heater, or similar items. This may

lead to unsafe situations and may cause irreparable damage to

the appliance.
