Handling the appliance
Putting it into use
Place the accessories into the refrigerator then plug to
the mains socket. To start cooling turn the control dial on
the right-hand side of the fresh food compartment from
„0” clockwise according to the figure. In „0” position the
appliance is out of operation.
The next paragraph will give instructions for setting.
Controlling the temperature, setting
The thermostatic controller interrupts the operation of the
appliance automatically for more or less time depending
on the setting then restarts it assuring the required
temperature.
Turning the control button towards the bigger numbers
cooling becomes more and more intensive.
In the frozen food compartment -18 °C or lower
temperature can be reached if the knob of the
thermostatic control is set to „3”. In this case the
temperature starting automatically in the fresh food
compartment is about +5 °C or below. The „3” position
generally meets the requirements of everyday cooling.
The temperature coming about in the refrigerator is
effected by not only the position of the thermostatic
control but the ambient temperature, frequency of door
openings and the quantity of food put into it newly, etc.
In the maximum i.e. „5” position - in case of
increased demand e.g. during heatwaves -
without disconnecting continuous operation can occur.
This does not cause damages to the appliance.

Storage time and temperature of
foods
The enclosed charts at the end of the user's instructions
give information about storage time in the frozen and the
fresh food compartment.
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.
It is safe to store quick-frozen food only that way if they
were not dissolved even for a short time until placing
them into the frozen food compartment.
How to use the four-star frozen food
compartment
Depending on the position of the thermostatic control -18
°C or lower can be kept here.
At this temperature for a certain time deep-frozen
products available on the market can be stored. It is also
suitable for freezing and storing smaller quantity of fresh
food.
In 24 hours' time approximately 2 kgs of food can be
frozen.
Pack the foods tightly in plastic or aluminium foil, cool
them in the fresh food compartment and then place to the
frozen food compartment.
It is recommended to write the date on it when it was
placed in.
You can put the next product to be frozen into the frozen
food compartment if the previous one has already been
frozen thoroughly.
How to use the fresh food
compartment
For adequate cooling developing interior air
circulation is necessary. For this reason you are
asked not to cover the whole surface of the wire shelves
with paper, trays, etc.
Do not put hot food into the refrigerator. Allow
it to reach room temperature naturally. In this
way the unnecessary frost building up can be
avoided.
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
