WARNING! The appliance should not be operated in an unheated room or porch. Place the appliance away from heat sources such as kitchen stove/oven, radiators, or direct sunlight.

WARNING! The appliance must not touch any pipes for heating, gas or water supply or any other electrical devices. • ◄ Do not cover the ventilation holes at the top of the appliances–

it must be a good air circulation around the appliance. There should be a gap of at least 10 cm between the top of the appliance body and any furniture that may be above it. If this requirement is not followed, the appliance consumes more electrical energy and its compressor may overheat.

• The appliance must stand on a level surface and must not touch the wall. If necessary, regulate the height of the appliance by adjusting the levelling feet: by turning them clockwise – the front of the appliance rises, by turning them counter clockwise – it comes down. If the appliance is tilted slightly backward – the doors will close by themselves.

• Attention! If the appliance

is placed in a corner, a gap of at least 235 mm must be left between the appliance body and the wall so that the refrigerator or freezer door can be opened enough (see fig.).

• ◄ Attention! If the appliance is placed in a

niche, a gap of at least 1210 mm must be left between the walls, furniture or other appliances so that the refrigerator and freezer doors can be opened enough (see fig.).

CONNECTING REFRIGERATOR AND FREEZER AND PREPARING THEM FOR OPERATION IMPORTANT! We RECOMMEND trusting the job of connecting refrigerator and freezer to a service agent. But please note that this job is not included in our warranty service. If you decide to connect these appliances and prepare them for operation yourself, we recommend getting someone to help you.

You will need: a screwdriver PH2, a t-type socket wrench No.8 and a wrench No.10. Never lay the appliances horizontally when connecting them. Preparing the appliances for connecting. 1. If the appliance is brought in from the cold (temperature is not higher than +12 °C), you should wait for two hours before connecting it to the mains. 2. The appliance should not be connected to the mains until all packing and transport materials are not removed. 3. Unpack the appliances. Take them off the polystyrene bases. Remove all the packing tape. 4. When placing the appliances into their designated place, slightly tilt them backwards:the wheels at the back will allow you to easily put them into the desired place. Never lift or push the refrigerator and freezer holding their handles as they may break. 5. Remove the red tape: it is intended for transportation only. 6. Appropriately dispose of the packaging. 7. Take supports 1 out of the bag and insert them into slots 2 at the top of the back of the appliances (see pic.). 8. Place the refrigerator and freezer about 1 metre off the wall they will be placed by. Place the appliances side by side, with the freezer on the left and the refrigerator on the right. 9. The component parts necessary for connecting the two appliances are packed with the freezer:

◄ front strip 1 (Qty: 1) - attached to the back wall of the freezer, behind its condenser;

◄ top strip-cover 2 with a sticky base (Qty: 1) (in the bag inside the freezer);

◄ bottom cover 3 (Qty: 1) - (the bag is attached to the freezer condenser);

◄ upper plate 4 (Qty: 1);

◄ back plates 6 (Qty: 2);

self-tapping bolts 8 (Qty: 4); self-tapping bolts 9 (Qty: 2);

(in the bag inside the freezer).

IMPORTANT! Before starting to work, adjust their height by turning the outer legs 10 and the inner legs 11 (pic. 2). When legs are turned clockwise, the front of the appliance is raised, when anti-clockwise, it is lowered. Make sure that both appliances are stable.

Connecting the appliances Start connecting the appliances at the back. 1. Separate one appliance from the other, leaving a gap of 7 mm in-between. 2. Unscrew the screws 12 at top of the backside of the appliances (pic. 3). 3. Screw back plate 6 at the back of the appliances (pic. 3). Screw the screws 12 back in. 4. Attach back plate 6 using self-tapping bolts 9 (from the bag) where the designated holes are located (pic. 3). 5. Carefully push the two appliances into their intended place. We recommend doing this with someone’s help, slightly tilting the appliances backwards.

6. Once you have placed both appliances in the desired place, make sure again that (pic. 4):

- the upper planes A coincide; - there is a gap of 7 mm between appliances; - the front planes B coincide when doors of both appliances are open; - the front planes C of refrigerator and freezer door glass coincide. Tip: If you struggle to connect both appliances, try turning the inner legs 11 all the way in so that they do not touch the floor. If you are struggling to adjust them, use the tips in the “Door position adjustment” section below. 7.

Remove the two decorative covers 17

(pic. 5). Pull these towards you where the hooks 18 are located. If you are struggling to remove them, bend the hooks using a screwdriver.

Take plate 4 and push it under the relaxed decorative panels so that its holes 21 coincide with holes

22 of the appliances (pic. 7). 10. Attach the plate using four bolts 8. Reattach the decorative panels using the previously unscrewed screws 19 (pic. 7).

Unscrew four screws 19 and relax the clamps of the decorative panels 20 by pulling them towards you (pic. 6).

11. Unscrew bolts 23, fixing bottom brackets 13 and 14 and take off the brackets (pic. 8). Fix the bottom plate 5 in places of brackets using the same bolts. Screw the bolts into the top brackets fixing holes.

12. Remove the protective film from the top strip 2 (pic. 9). Attach the top strip on both appliances. Start with sticking the bent part at the front, then continuing towards the back of the appliances. 13. Insert front strip 1 to the gap between fridge and freezer: slowly push it with narrow sideinto the gap between both appliances starting from the top (pic. 9). 14. Keeping the doors of both appliances open, place bottom cover 3 on bottom brackets 15 and 16, fixing it with two bolts 7 (pic. 9). Insert the bolts into the threaded holes of brackets 15 and 16 and screw them in using a wrench No. 10, applying downward pressure with your finger. Door position adjustment when planes A or C of the appliances are not level

If the upper corner(s) of one (or both) appliance(s) is somewhat lower than the appliance body’s plane A or the glass of the doors do not comprise a single plane

C, adjust the bottom or topbrackets: 1. Start by adjusting the bottom brackets: - Remove outer legs 10; - Relax the bolts that fasten bottom brackets 15 and 16 and push the brackets: refrigerator bracket 15 – to the right, freezer bracket 16 – to the left. - If the upper inner corner of the door(s) is (are) higher, adjust the brackets in the reverse manner: refrigerator bracket 15 – to the left, freezer bracket 16 – to the right. 2. If you are unable to level the appliances by adjusting the bottom brackets, try adjusting the top brackets: - Remove cover 26; Relax bolts 25; - Adjust the position of top brackets 24. Note. The picture shows top bracket 24 of the refrigerator. The top bracket of the freezer is identical, but the bolts are at the bottom.

TEMPERATURE REGULATION Refrigerators BFL5636BW, BFL5636BX The temperature in the appliances is controlled using the thermostat knob 1 (fig. 1) by turning itto one side or the other. The temperature indication in digits is shown beside the thermostat knob.

The temperature is regulated on the scale of seven digits. 0 = Compressor is switched off. WARNING! Electric current is not switched off. 1 = highest temperature (lowest cooling) 7 = lowest temperature (highest cooling) If food products in the refrigerator are too cold, set the thermostat knob to 1, 2 or 3. If food products in the refrigerator are not being chilled sufficiently, set the thermostat knob to 4 or 5 - 7. Please set the desired temperature in the appliance according to your own requirements! THE TEMPERATURE IN THE REFRIGERATOR MAY VARY DEPENDING ON AMBIENT TEMPERATURE, THE AMOUNT OF FOODSTUFFS, THE TEMPERATURE OF THE FOODSTUFFS, AND HOW OFTEN THE APPLIANCE DOOR IS OPENED AND CLOSED. Therefore we recommend: • locate the appliance away from heat sources, • do not put hot foodstuffs in the refrigerator – they must be cooled down to room temperature, • appliance door must not to be left open, • the appliance door should not be open longer than it is necessary to take out or put in foodstuffs. IF THE ROOM IS COOL, THE APPLIANCE COOLS LESS. THE TEMPERATURE IN THE APPLIANCE MAY THEREFORE RISE. Use the thermostat wheel to set a lower temperature.

STORAGE OF FOODSTUFFS IN THE REFRIGERATOR The refrigerator is intended for the short-term storage of fresh foodstuffs.

• Strictly observe the foodstuff validity time indicated by the manufacturer on the product packaging. • If on one of the shelves you have placed a lot of liquid filled dishes, a moisture may condense and form drops, which may drip onto the shelf below. To avoid this, move some liquid filled objects to the other shelves.

FREEZING OF FOODSTUFFS In the freezer the fast-freeze sections is marked with the symbol

When planning to freeze a large quantity of fresh food products, turn on the superfreeze function 24 hours in advance by touching the “S” symbol (see Fig. 2). Place one or two layers of the fresh food products ready for freezing into the fast freezing compartment. After one day reload the frozen products from the fast-freezing compartment (if you intend to re-freeze the products) into the storage compartment drawers. The super-freeze function will turn off automatically. DO NOT EXCEED THE MAXIMUM QUANTITY OF FROZEN PRODUCTS 15 KG / 24 H • Leave a gap of not less than 2,5 cm between the foodstuffs being

frozen and the upper partition. ►

• Do not place unwrapped foodstuffs in the freezer sections. • Fresh food for freezing should not touch already frozen foodstuffs. • Do not freeze foodstuffs that are warmer than the room

• Do not freeze liquid foodstuffs in glass vessels or bottles. Do not freeze carbonated

• Strictly observe the frozen foodstuffs validity dates indicated by the manufacturer on

FREEZER COMPARTMENT NOT LONGER THAN 6 MONTHS; CHEESE, POULTRY, PORK,

LAMB – NOT MORE THAN 8 MONTHS; BEEF, FRUIT AND VEGETABLES – NOT LONGER THAN 12 MONTHS.

DEFROSTING Refrigerators BFL5636BW, BFL5636BX The refrigerator compartment defrosts automatically. Drops of ice that form on the back wall of the refrigeration compartment thaw during the time the compressor is not working and the thaw water runs down the thaw water runoff channel to the tray on top of the compressor, where it evaporates.

Freezers BFU662LNW, BFU662LNX Freezer compartment gets defrosted automatically: it operates a frost-free cooling system (No Frost). However, according to how often the freezer door were opened and closed, and to - how warm products were placed into the appliance, the frost can

accumulate on walls of freezer inner liner and drawers. It is normal. But the thicker is the layer of frost, the higher is a power consumption. In case if No Frost system had not managed to evaporate the excess moisture and the frost layer has formed on, you should defrost the appliance. To defrost the appliance, follow the steps in sequence:

• WARNING! Turn the appliance off and pull the plug out of the electrical socket. • Remove foodstuffs from freezer compartment. The frozen foodstuffs will not warm up too much while you are thawing the freezer compartment if you cover them with a thick cloth and keep them in a cool place. • Leave door of freezer compartment open. When the frost melts, clean and wipe dry the surfaces and fixtures of the freezer compartment. • Close the freezer compartment door. Plug in and turn on the appliance.

CLEANING AND CARE REGULARLY CLEAN THE APPLIANCE.

Remember that before defrosting and cleaning the back part of the appliance body you must disconnect the appliance from the electrical energy supply socket by pulling the plug out of the electricity outlet. • Protect the appliance inner surfaces and plastic parts from fats, acids and sauces. In

case of accidental spills – immediately clean with warm soapy water or dishwashing detergent. Wipe dry.

• Clean the appliance inner surfaces with warm soapy water. Dishwashing detergent may also be used. Wipe dry inner and outer surfaces. • Regularly clean the hermetic gaskets of the doors. Wipe dry. • ◄ REGULARLY CLEAN THE THAW WATER CHANNEL SPACE IN THE REFRIGERATOR WITH A SPECIAL CLEANER FOR THAT PURPOSE (see fig.). • At least once a year clean dust away from the back part of the appliance body and the compressor. A soft brush, electrostatic cloth or vacuum cleaner may be used for cleaning (see fig.). ► • DO NOT use detergents containing abrasive particles, acid, alcohol or benzene for cleaning the appliance inner and outer surfaces. • DO NOT use for cleaning cloths or sponges that have coarse surfaces intended for scrubbing.

PRACTICAL TIPS AND OBSERVATIONS

• Do not consume ice made in the freezer straight away. • Store in an airtight container in the appliance any foodstuffs that have a strong odour

• Products will freeze more quickly if they are divided up and packed in small portions.

• IF THE APPLIANCE IS TO BE LEFT SWITCHED OFF FOR AN EXTENDED PERIOD,

Remarks on the appliance operating noise. As the appliance operates and goes through the freezing cycle, various noises will be emitted. This is normal and is not a sign of any malfunction.

• As the refrigerant circulates around the refrigeration system, it causes sounds like murmuring, bubbling or rustling. • Louder sounds like popping or clicking may be heard for a short time as the freezer compressor switches on.

CHANGING THE OPENING DIRECTION OF THE DOORS It is recommended that changing the opening direction of the doors should be done with a helper. You will need two spanners No. 8 and No. 10 and a head screwdriver.

OPERATION PROBLEMS AND THEIR SOLUTIONS

(TROUBLESHOOTING) What if … • The appliance is plugged in to the mains but it does not work and the electricity supply voltage indicator is not illuminated. Check that your house electricity supply installations are in order. Check that the plug is correctly inserted into the electricity supply socket. • The noise has become louder. Check that the appliance is standing stable on a level place. To make it level, regulate the front feet. Check if the appliance is not touching any furniture and that no part of the refrigeration system at the back part of the appliance body is touching the wall. Pull the appliance away from any furniture or walls. Check that the cause of increased noise isn’t due to bottles, cans or dishes in the appliance that might be touching each other. • Water has appeared at the bottom of the refrigerator compartment. Check whether a thaw water channel space isn’t blocked. Clean the thaw water channel space with a cleaner intended for that purpose. • Water has appeared under the refrigerator. The thaw water collection tray has slipped off the compressor. Place the tray on top of the compressor. • When the appliance door is opened, the rubber sealing gasket pulls out. The gasket is smeared with sticky foodstuffs (fat, syrup). Clean the sealing gasket and the groove for it with warm water containing soap or dishwashing detergent and wipe dry. Put the rubber sealing gasket back into the place. • The alarm LED lights up red, when the temperature of the freezer compartment rises above -13 °C. When the freezer compartment temperature is -18 °C, the alarm indicator is off and the symbol turns grey. • High temperature in appliance, the compressor operation pauses are short. Ascertain whether the appliance door are shutting tightly, whether the door was not kept open longer than necessary when taking out or putting in foodstuffs or whether a large amount of warm food was placed in the appliance.
