Before connecting your refrigerator to the power supply, check that the voltage stated on the rating label of your appliance corresponds to the voltage in your home. A different voltage could damage the appliance. The plug is the only way to unplug the appliance and should therefore be accessible at all times. To turn off main power to the appliance, turn it off and then detach the plug from the outlet. GB-5 The appliance must be grounded. The manufacturer is not responsible for damages that may occur as a result of usage without grounding. INSTALLATION Install the appliance in a dry, well ventilated room. The installation location should neither be exposed to direct sunlight nor near a heat source, e.g. a cooker, radiator, etc. To ensure adequate ventilation for the appliance, allow a minimum of 10 cm of airspace on each side of the cabinet. For uneven surfaces, front feet can be aligned. AMBIENT TEMPERATURE This appliance is designed to operate in ambient temperature between 16°C and 43°C. If these temperatures are exceeded, i.e. colder or warmer, the appliance will not operate correctly. If the ambient temperatures are exceeded for long periods, the temperature in the freezer compartment will rise above ϋ18ćand food spoilage may occur.

BEFORE PLACING FOOD IN THE APPLIANCE

x Remove all packaging. x Allow the appliance to run empty for 2 – 3 hours so the compartment can cool to the appropriate temperature. x Clean the inside of the appliance with warm water and a little liquid detergent to remove manufacturing and transportation dust. GB-6 POWER FAILURE If there is a power failure, do not open the door. Frozen food should not be affected if the power failure lasts for less than 12 hours. Do not refreeze frozen foods that have thawed completely. The food may be dangerous to eat. TEMPERATURE CONTROL The appliance is controlled with a temperature control knob located inside the appliance. Adjust the control knob as desired to suit your individual preference. 0 is off setting 1 is warmest setting 7 is coldest setting In the 0 position the appliance does not operate (the cooling system is switched off), but power supply is not interrupted. The running time and temperature are affected by where the appliance is located, how often the door is opened and the temperature of the room the appliance is located in. When you use the appliance for the first time or after defrosting, adjust the control knob to the coldest setting for at least 2 hours before introducing food to be stored, and then readjust to the middle setting.

MOVING YOUR APPLIANCE

If the appliance is turned off for any reason, wait for 10 minutes before turning it back on. This will allow the refrigeration system pressures to equalise before restarting. x Turn off the appliance and unplug it from the mains socket. Remove all food. Also remove all mobile parts (shelves, accessories, etc.) or fix them into the fridge to avoid any shock. x Relocate and install. If the appliance has been left on its side for any length of time, leave it standing upright for at least 10 minutes before turning on. Your appliance uses isobutane (R600a) as a refrigerant. Although R600a is an environmentally friendly and natural gas, it is explosive. Therefore you should be careful during shipment and installation to prevent your appliance’s cooler elements from being damaged. In the event of a leak caused by damage to the cooler elements, move your appliance from open flame or heat sources and ventilate the room where the appliance is located for a few minutes.

STORING FOOD IN THE REFRIGERATOR COMPARTMENT

The refrigerator compartment helps to extend the storage times of fresh perishable foods. GB-7 Fresh food care For best results: x Store foods that are very fresh and of good quality. x Ensure that food is well wrapped or covered before it is stored. This will prevent food from dehydrating, deteriorating in colour or losing taste and will help maintain freshness. It will also prevent odour transfer. x Make sure that strong smelling foods are wrapped or covered and stored away from foods such as butter, milk and cream which can be tainted by strong odours. x Cool hot foods down before placing them in the refrigerator compartment. Dairy foods and eggs x Most pre-packed dairy foods have a recommended ‘use by /best before/best by/’ date stamped on them. Store them in the refrigerator compartment and use within the recommended time. x Butter can become tainted by strong smelling foods so it is best stored in a sealed container. x Eggs can be stored in the refrigerator compartment. Red meat x Place fresh red meat on a plate and loosely cover with waxed paper, plastic wrap or foil. x Store cooked and raw meat on separate plates. This will prevent any juice lost from the raw meat from contaminating the cooked product. Poultry x Fresh whole birds should be rinsed inside and out with cold running water, dried and placed on a plate. Cover loosely with plastic wrap or foil. x Poultry pieces should also be stored this way. Whole poultry should never be stuffed until just before cooking, otherwise food poisoning may result. Fish and seafood x Whole fish and fillets should be used on the day of purchase. Until required, refrigerate on a plate loosely covered with plastic wrap, waxed paper or foil. x If storing overnight or longer, take particular care to select very fresh fish. Whole fish should be rinsed in cold water to remove loose scales and dirt and then patted dry with paper towels. Place whole fish or fillets in a sealed plastic bag. x Keep shellfish chilled at all times. Use within 1 – 2 days. Precooked foods and leftovers x These should be stored in suitable covered containers so that the food will not dry out. x Keep for only 1 – 2 days. GB-8 x Reheat leftovers only once and until steaming hot. Vegetable and fresh fruit x The vegetable container is the optimum storage location for fresh fruit and vegetables. x Take care not to store the following at temperatures of less than 7°C for long periods: Citrus fruit, melons, aubergines, pineapple, papaya, courgettes, passion fruit, cucumber, peppers, tomatoes. x Undesirable changes will occur at low temperatures such as softening of the flesh, browning and/or accelerated decaying. x Do not refrigerate avocados (until they are ripe), bananas, mangoes. FREEZING AND STORING FOOD IN THE FREEZER COMPARTMENT Use the freezer compartment z To store deepϋfrozen food. z To make ice cubes. z To freeze food. Note: Ensure that the freezer compartment door has been closed properly. Purchasing frozen food z Packaging must not be damaged. z Use by the ‘use by /best before/best by/ date. z If possible, transport deepϋfrozen food in an insulated bag and place quickly in the freezer compartment. Storing frozen food Store at ϋ18°C or colder. Avoid opening the freezer compartment door unnecessarily. Freezing fresh food Freeze fresh and undamaged food only. To retain the best possible nutritional value, flavour and colour, vegetables should be blanched before freezing. Aubergines, peppers, zucchini and asparagus do not require blanching. Note: Keep food to be frozen away from food which is already frozen. z The following foods are suitable for freezing: Cakes and pastries, fish and seafood, meat, game, poultry, vegetables, fruit, herbs, eggs without shells, dairy products such as cheese and butter, ready meals and leftovers such as soups, stews, cooked meat and fish, potato dishes, soufflés and desserts.

The following foods are not suitable for freezing: Types of vegetables, which are usually consumed raw, such as lettuce or radishes, eggs in shells, grapes, whole apples, pears and peaches, hardϋboiled eggs, yoghurt, soured milk, sour cream, GB-9 and mayonnaise. Packing frozen food To prevent food from losing its flavour or drying out, place food in airtight packaging.

1. Place food in packaging.

3. Seal the wrapping.

4. Label packaging with contents and dates of freezing.

Suitable packaging: Plastic film, tubular film made of polyethylene, aluminium foil, freezer containers. These products are available from specialist outlets. Recommended storage times of frozen food in the freezer compartment These times vary depending on the type of food. The food that you freeze can be preserved from 1 to 12 months (minimum at -18°C).

Indeed, frozen food that has thawed completely must not be refrozen. x Once defrosted, food should be consumed quickly.

Fill the ice cube tray (not supplied) with ¾ full of drinking water and place in the ice box. If the ice cube tray is stuck to the ice box, loosen with a blunt tool only. To loosen the ice cubes, twist the ice cube tray slightly or hold briefly under flowing water. DEFROSTING Refrigerator compartment defrosts fully automatically While the refrigerating unit is running, beads of condensation or hoarfrost form at the back of the refrigerator compartment. This is normal. It is not necessary to wipe off the condensation or frost. The GB-10 rear panel defrosts automatically. The condensation runs into the condensation channel and is conveyed to the refrigerating unit where it evaporates. Note: Keep the condensation channel and drainage hole clean, so that the condensation can run out. Defrosting the freezer compartment The freezer compartment does not defrost automatically, otherwise the frozen food would start thawing. A layer of frost in the freezer compartment impairs refrigeration of the frozen food and increases power consumption. Remove the layer of hoarfrost regularly. Do not scrape off hoarfrost or ice with a knife or pointed object. Doing this may damage the refrigerant tubes.

1. Remove the frozen food and place temporarily in a cool location.

2. Set the temperature control knob to the 0 position and disconnect the mains plug from the mains

3. Wipe up condensation with a cloth or sponge.

4. Wipe dry the freezer compartment.

5. Plug in the appliance and adjust the temperature control knob as desired.

6. Put the frozen food back in the freezer compartment.

THE COLDEST PART OF THE REFRIGERATOR

The symbol indicates the location of the coldest part of your refrigerator. This area is in between the vegetable compartment at the bottom and the symbol at the top, or the shelf at the same height. In order to maintain the temperature in this area, make sure not to change the position of this shelf. In pulsed air refrigerators (equipped with a fan) or No Frost models, the coldest area symbol is not shown because the temperature is uniform throughout the interior.

INSTALLING THE TEMPERATURE INDICATOR

To help you adjust your refrigerator correctly, it is equipped with a temperature indicator that you can use to control the average temperature in the coldest area. WARNING: This indicator is only intended for use in your refrigerator. Do not use it in another refrigerator (as the coldest area will not be the same) or for any other purpose. TEMPERATURE INDICATOR: THE COLDEST PART OF YOUR REFRIGERATOR CHECKING THE TEMPERATURE IN THE COLDEST AREA

• Using the temperature indicator, you should regularly check that the temperature is correct in the coldest part of your refrigerator. The temperature inside your refrigerator depends on a number of factors, such as the outside room temperature, how full your refrigerator is, and how often you open the door. Take these factors into consideration when adjusting your appliance. When the indicator shows "OK", it means your thermostat is set properly and the temperature inside your refrigerator is correct. If the indicator is white it means the temperature is too high, so you should increase the thermostat and wait for 12 hours before checking the indicator again. After loading the refrigerator or opening the door, the indicator may turn white for a few seconds.
