General safety precautions

• Keep these instructions and they should remain at the appliance when moving away or changing owner.
• This appliance is designed for storing food, domestic use according to these instructions only.
• Specialised companies that are qualified to do so by the manufacturer must carry out service and repairs including repairing and changing the power cord. Accessory parts supplied by them should be used only for repairing. Otherwise the appliance can be damaged or can cause other damage or injury.
• The appliance is out of circuit only in that case if the plug is removed from the socket. Before cleaning and maintenance always unplug it (do not get it by the cable). If the socket is difficult to reach, switch off the appliance by cutting off the current.
  • Power cord must not be lengthened.
• Make sure that the power plug is not squashed or damaged by the back of the fridge/freezer.

- A damaged power plug may overheat and cause a fire.

- Do not place heavy articles or the fridge/freezer itself on the power cord.

- There is a risk of a short circuit and fire.

- Do not remove the power cord by pulling on its lead, particularly when the fridge/freezer is being pulled out of its niche.

• Damage to the cord may cause a short-circuit, fire and/or electric shock.
• If the power cord is damaged, it must be replaced by a certified service agent or qualified service personnel.

- If the power plug socket is loose, do not insert the power plug.

- There is a risk of electric shock or fire.

- Without the lamp cover of interior lighting you must not operate the

appliance.

• When cleaning, defrosting, taking out frozen food or ice tray do not use sharp, pointed or hard devices, as they can cause damage to the appliance.
• Be careful not to allow liquids to the temperature control and lighting box.
• Ice and ice-cream can cause hurt if they are eaten immediately after removal from the frozen food compartment.
• After dissolving frozen food must not be refrozen, it must be used up as soon as possible.
• Store pre-packed frozen food in accordance with the frozen food manufacturer's instructions.
• You must not make defrosting faster with any electric heating appliance or chemicals.
• Do not put hot pot to the plastic parts.
• Do not store flammable gas and liquid in the appliance, because they may explode.
• Do not store carbonated drinks, bottled drinks and bottled fruits in the frozen food compartment.

Instructions for the User

General information

The official designation of the appliance is „refrigerator-freezer combination with one motor compressor and freezer placed in the upper part”. The appliance has - besides the general services - a freezer with its own door and is completely separated from the other unit.

According to this the appliance is suitable for storing frozen and deep-frozen food, freezing products in quantity given in the user's instructions at home and making ice.

The appliance can meet the requirements of standards between different temperature limits according to the climate class.

The letter symbol for climate class can be found on the data label.

Operation and use

Installation

Insert the plug into the socket. In order to switch on the product, turn the thermostat (B) to a temperature lower than << -16°C >>. The green indicator will light up and the red indicator will blink. The lighting up of the on/off indicator (A) means that the product is switched on. The blinking of the red indicator means an improper temperature in the freezing compartment. In addition, an intermittent sound can be heard, which can be stopped by pressing button (D) once. You can switch off the freezer by turning the thermostat (B) in position << ● >>.

Adjusting the temperature

The internal temperature of the freezer is regulated electronically through five temperature positions and a switch-off << " >> setting.

Position << -16°C >> indicates the highest (least cold) temperature, while position << -24°C >> is for the lowest (coldest) temperature. Rotate the thermostat in the desired position.

In general, it is best to set the thermostat to << -18°C >> but, for the purpose of temperature setting, you should also consider

• the temperature of the room where the product is installed,
  • the frequency of door openings,
• the volume of food to be stored in the product,
  • the location of the product.

Therefore, you should consider all these factors and you may have to do some testing for finding the best temperature. If you want a lower temperature, turn the thermostat into a position of higher number or, vice versa, if you need a higher temperature, you should set a position of lower number. Please allow 24 hours for the freezer temperature to stabilize between two adjustments.

Alarm (red) indicator

The temperature alarm indicator (E) will light up when the internal temperature of the freezer increases to a level (above -12^ ) where the long-term conservation of the foods in not ensured. Please note that, when switching on the freezer for the first time, the alarm indicator will blink until the internal temperature has reached a level required for the safe conservation of frozen food.

Temperature problem:

Under normal operating conditions, the internal temperature of the freezer will ensure the long-term conservation of the stored food. When such temperature rises above a certain level (-12°C), it will trigger an acoustic and light alarm. The light alarm is a continuous red light (E), while the acoustic alarm is an intermittent sound. You can stop the acoustic alarm by pressing switch (D) once.

Storing

It is practical to replace frozen products into the storing compartments after freezing has finished so that to make room in the freezing compartment for another freezing.

In large quantities of food are to be stored, remove the baskets except the lowermost one from appliance and place food on the shelves.

Intermediate freezing does not deteriorate foods already stored.

Some useful information and advice

• After opening and closing the door of freezer vacuum will rise inside the appliance because of the low temperature. So wait 2-3 minutes after closing the door - if you want to open it again - while inner pressure equalises.
• Take care of operating the freezer at a position of thermostatic control so that the inside temperature can never go beyond -18 °C, since temperature higher than this can deteriorate frozen foods.
• It is practical to make sure of faultless operation of the appliance daily so as to notice possible failure in time and prevent deterioration of frozen foods.
• After a power failure the product will restart and the quick freeze function will be switched on.

Hints and ideas

In this chapter practical hints and ideas are given about how to use the appliance to reach maximum energy saving and there is environmental information about the appliance as well.

How to save energy

• Avoid putting the appliance in a sunny place and near anything that gives off heat.
• Be sure that the condenser and the compressor are well ventilated. Do not cover the sections where ventilation is.
• Wrap products in tightly closing dishes or cling film to avoid building up unnecessary frost.
• Avoid products put in the freezer compartment to touch foods already frozen.
• Do not leave the door open longer than necessary and avoid unnecessary openings.
• Put warm foods into the appliance only when they are at room temperature.
• The condenser must be kept clean.

The appliance and environment

This appliance does not contain gasses which could damage the ozone layer, in either its refrigerant circuit or insulation materials. The appliance shall not be discarded together with the urban refuse and rubbish. Avoid damaging the cooling unit, especially at the rear near the heat exchanger. Information on your local disposal sites may be obtained from your municipal authorities.

The materials used on this appliance marked with the sympol are recyclable.

Maintenance

Defrosting

Bleeding part of the moisture of cooling chamber in form of frost and ice goes with the operation of the appliance.

Thick frost and ice has an insulating effect, so it reduces cooling efficiency as the temperature increases, it needs more energy, at a certain thickness it does not allow the door of the freezing compartment to open, possibly the door can be broken.

It is possible to scrape off and remove smaller frost and ice with the enclosed ice scraper.

The tray in figure is not a piece of accessories to the appliance!

When ice coating is so thick that it can not be removed with the frost scraper defrosting is necessary. Its frequency depends on usage.

How to defrost it:

Disconnect the appliance from the electrical supply. If the plug is not accessible turn the temperature control knob to "0" position.

Take the frozen foods out of the appliance and put them into a basket lined with paper or cloth. Store them in a possibly cool place or replace them into a frozen or fresh food compartment of a refrigerator.

Leave the door open.

Sweep off the melting water occasionally with a cloth or sponge in direction of sides which gathers in the outlet channel practically formed in the bottom of the appliance and can be removed as follows:

Put a tray high enough in front of the appliance. Insert the plastic scraper into the defrost water outlet according to the picture. Defrost water will flow into the tray through the outlet.

Defrosting process can be made quicker by placing a pot or dish filled with warm water to the cooling plate formed as a shelf.

After defrosting wipe the surfaces and push defrost water outlet back.

Apply voltage to the appliance.

Turn the temperature control knob to a medium position and leave to run.

After the red light has gone out put the foods back.

Regular cleaning

It is practical to clean the inside of the freezer and defrost it at a time.

Household cleaner or soap must not be used.

After breaking the circuit wash the appliance using lukewarm water and wipe it.

Clean the door gasket with clean water.

After cleaning apply voltage to the appliance.

It is recommended to remove the dust and dirt collected on the back of the appliance and the condenser once or twice a year.

Long-term abscence

If you do not use the product for longer periods, make sure to perform the following:

Set the thermostat to position << ●>.

Disconnect the product from the mains.

Remove all foods from the product.

Perform defrosting and cleaning operations as described above.

Leave the doors ajar to avoid the build-up of unpleasant odors.

Trouble shooting

During operation of the appliance some smaller but annoying trouble can often occur, which does not require calling a technician out. In the following chart information is given about them to avoid unnecessary charges on service.

We draw your attention that operation of appliance goes with certain sounds (compressor- and circulating sound). This is not trouble, but means normal operation.

We draw it to your attention again that the appliance operates discontinuously, so the stopping of compressor does not mean being no-current. That is why you must not touch the electrical parts of the appliance before removing it from the mains socket.

After cleaning wipe out the inside of the appliance.

Placement

The ambient temperature has an effect on the energy consumption and proper operation of the appliance. When placing, take into consideration that it is practical to operate the appliance between ambient temperature limits according to the climate class that is given in the chart below and can be found in the data label.

Class of climate	Ambient temperature
SN	+10 ... +32 °C
N	+16 ... +32 °C
ST	+16 ... +38 °C
T	+16 ... +43 °C

If the ambient temperature goes below the lower data the temperature of the cooling compartment can go beyond the prescribed temperature.

If the ambient temperature goes beyond the upper data this means longer operating time of the compressor, increasing temperature in the freezer or increasing energy consumption.

When placing the appliance ensure that it stands level. This can be achieved by two adjustable feet (1) at the bottom in front. 1-1 piece of distance washers (2) are accessories of the adjustable feet. If levelling the appliance requires, these washers can be removed.
