time in case of malfunction. Even a slight rise in the inside

temperature will shorten the storage life of the food.

Main cabinet

∙ Different areas of the refrigerator cabinet are affected

differently by the cooling effect. The warmest area is around

the door in the higher part of the cabinet, the coldest around

the rear wall and in the lower part of the cabinet.

∙ The food should therefore be stored as follows:

∙ On main cabinet shelves (from top to bottom): bakery items,

ready meals, dairy products, meat, ﬁ sh and cold meats/

sausages.

∙ In the vegetable compartment: vegetables, salad and fruit.

∙ In the door (from top to bottom): butter, cheese, eggs, tubes

(eg mustard), small bottles, large bottles, milk and fruit-juice

tetra-packs.

∙ Initially, the temperature control should be set to position 4.

If the cooling effect is too strong, lower it to position 1-3; if it

is insufﬁ cient, raise it to 5-7.

If you notice frost on the rear wall, the most likely cause

is that the door has been left open for too long, or that

warm food has been placed inside the refrigerator or

that the temperature control has been set too high.

∙ Liquid or strong-smelling food, or food which is likely to

absorb strong odours (e.g. cheese, ﬁ sh, butter), should be

stored separately or in hermetically sealed containers.

∙ Warm food should be left to cool down to room

temperature before being placed in the refrigerator.

∙ Always ensure that the door is properly closed and that the

seal is not obstructed by food stored inside the cabinet or

door.

Making ice cubes

A special ice-cube tray is provided for making ice cubes. Fill

the tray 3/4 full with drinking water and place it in the freezer

compartment. The ice cubes are easier to remove from the tray

if the tray is left standing at room temperature for 5 minutes.

De-frosting and cleaning

∙ Always remove the plug from the wall socket before

cleaning.

∙ Do not pour water over or inside the unit.

∙ For frequent cleaning we recommend the use of warm water

with some mild detergent. To prevent any unpleasant odour

within the refrigerator, it should be cleaned about once a

month.

∙ Any accessories should be cleaned separately with soapy

water. Do not put them in a dishwasher.

∙ Do not use abrasives or harsh cleaning solutions or any

cleaning agents that contain alcohol.

∙ After cleaning, thoroughly clean all surfaces with fresh water

before wiping them completely dry. When re-inserting the

plug into the wall socket ensure that you have dry hands.

∙ To save energy and to ensure optimum performance, the

condenser (at the rear) as well as the compressor should

be cleaned at least twice a year with a broom or a vacuum

cleaner.

∙ Take care not to remove or damage the rating plate inside

the cabinet during cleaning.

When de-frosting the freezer compartment

Once the build-up of ice inside the freezer compartment has

reached a thickness of 2-4 mm, it needs to be de-frosted. This

should be done at least twice a year.

∙ Ensure that the plug has been removed from the wall

socket.

∙ Remove all food from the compartment and store it in a

cool location, eg together with pre-frozen freezer-packs

in a closed plastic container. Note that, even with a slight

increase in temperature, the storage life will be shortened

and the food should be used as soon as possible.

∙ Keep the door open. To accelerate defrosting, one or several

containers with hot (but not boiling) water may be placed

inside the freezer compartment.

∙ Warning: do not use any external device or other means

(e.g. heaters or heating fans) to accelerate de-frosting.

∙ After cleaning, ensure that the freezer compartment is

thoroughly dried and set the temperature control to its

maximum position. After 24 hours, it may turned back to its

normal setting.

Defrosting the refrigerator cabinet :

The integral vapouriser is sealed in foam in the rear wall; you

may therefore notice a build-up of frost around the rear area.

This layer of frost will start melting when the compressor is not

working. Through a system of hoses, the melt-water drains

into the collection tray below the compressor, where it will be

absorbed into the surrounding air. The unit does not therefore

require de-frosting, but only proper cleaning instead.

∙ To enable the melt-water to drain freely, always ensure that

the channel and discharge opening in the cabinet are free of

any blockage.

Energy saving tips

∙ The appliance should be set up in a well-ventilated, dry room.

∙ Do not expose the appliance to direct sunlight, and do not

position it next to any heat sources (radiators, cookers etc.).

If this cannot be avoided, however, suitable insulation must be

installed between the heat source and the unit.

∙ Do not cover the ventilation openings and grilles, and ensure

sufﬁ cient air circulation behind the unit.

∙ The compressor (at the rear) should be cleaned at regular

intervals. Accumulated dust causes an increase in energy

consumption.

∙ Warm food should be allowed to cool down before it is

stored inside.

∙ To prevent an increased build-up of ice, do not leave the

doors of the unit open for too long when loading or taking
