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.

Zanussi-Electrolux ZRT 15 JC - Putting it into use - 1

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.
i 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, greaseproof paper or cling film before placing them into

GB

the refrigerator. This way foods will keep their moisture e.g. vegetables will not dry out after some days.

How to make ice cubes

To make ice cubes fill the enclosed ice cube tray with water and put it to the frozen food compartment. Wetting the bottom of the tray and setting thermostatic control knob to maximum stage can shorten preparing time. After finishing do not forget to reset the thermostatic control to the suitable stage.

Ready ice cubes can be taken out of the tray under running water then twist or hit it.

Some useful information and advice

The variable shelves are worth paying attention to, which increases the usefulness of the fresh food compartment considerably. Rearranging the shelves is also possible when the door is open at an angle of 90^

The inside configuration of the door makes rearranging the door shelves as required possible.

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

The colder the ambient temperature of the appliance is the less energy it uses.
- 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.

Zanussi-Electrolux ZRT 15 JC - How to save energy - 1

  • Do not leave the door open longer than necessary and avoid unnecessary openings.
  • When closing the door of the frozen food compartment take care to move its bolt in the direction of the arrow to fit it to the lock properly.
    Put foods into the appliance only in a closed dish.
    Put warm foods into the appliance only when they are at room temperature.
  • Keep the condenser clean at the back of the appliance.

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 refrigerator.

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 frozen food compartment to open, possibly the door can be broken.

At this type of appliance defrosting fresh food compartment is automatic without any external intervention.

The thermostatic control interrupts the operation of compressor at regular intervals for more or less time - during this cooling is interrupted - temperature of the fresh food compartment increases and defrosting occurs. After defrosting the thermostatic control restarts operation of the system.

Melting water flows through defrost water outlet into the evaporative tray maintained on the top of compressor and evaporates due to warmth of it.

Zanussi-Electrolux ZRT 15 JC - Defrosting - 1

Check and clean the outlet of melting water coming during defrosting regularly. If it is clogged the melting water gathered can cause earlier failure as it can go to the insulating of the appliance.

Clean the melting water outlet with the supplied pipe scraper that can be seen in the figure. The pipe scraper has to be stored in the outlet.

Occasionally check defrost water outlet not to be clogged up.

The most typical case of clogging up in the defrost water outlet when you put food wrapped in some paper into the

appliance and this paper contacts back plate of fresh food compartment and freezes to it. If you remove the food right at this moment the paper will tear and it can cause clogging up in the outlet by getting into it. So you are asked to be careful - because of the above - when placing foods wrapped in paper into the appliance.

In case of increased demand e.g. during heatwaves, the refrigerator temporarily happens to operate constantly. During this the automatic defrosting is ineffective.

Remaining small ice and frost stains on back plate of the fresh food compartment after defrosting period is not abnormal.

The frozen food compartment can not be equipped with automatic defrosting set since the deep-frozen and frozen foods do not endure melting temperature.

So the enclosed plastic scraper is for scraping off and removing frost and ice coating which possibly occurs in the frozen food compartment and on the sealing of the door.

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

Zanussi-Electrolux ZRT 15 JC - Defrosting - 2

When ice coating is so thick that it can not be removed with the plastic scraper, the frozen food compartment has to be defrosted (generally 2-3 times a year).

Take the foods out of the frozen and fresh food compartment, wrap them into some layers of paper or cloth. Put them to a possible cool place while defrosting.

Break the circuit of the appliance and leave the doors of frozen and fresh food compartment open.

Continuously blot off the defrosting water by a soft cloth or sponge.

After defrosting wipe the surfaces, apply voltage to the appliance and put the foods back to their places.

It is recommended to operate the appliance at the highest position of the thermostatic control so that it can reach the proper storing temperature as soon as possible.

Regular cleaning

It is recommended to wash the inside of the refrigerator in 3-4 weeks time.

Household cleaner or soap must not be used.

After you made it no-current wash the appliance using lukewarm water and wipe it.

Clean the magnet door rubber profile with clean water.

After cleaning plug the appliance to the mains socket.

It is practical to clean and defrost the frozen food compartment at a time and when it is empty.

Dust and dirt collected on the back of the refrigerator, condenser is recommended to be removed and clean the evaporative tray on top of the compressor once or twice a year.

When the refrigerator is not in use

In case the appliance will not be used for a long time follow these steps:

Break the circuit of the appliance.

Remove foods from the refrigerator.

Defrost and clean it as written before.

Leave the door open to avoid a build up of air inside.

Trouble shooting

How to change the bulb

Should the light fail to work you can change it as below: Break the circuit of the appliance.

Unscrew the plate screw fixing the lamp cover, then take the lamp cover off in the direction of arrow and the bulb can be changed. (Type of the bulb: Mignon 322, 230V 15 W, E 14 thread)

After changing bulb replace the lamp cover, screw the plate screw and apply voltage to the appliance.

The lack of light does not influence operation of the refrigerator.

If something does not work

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 breaking the circuit.

Declaration of guarantee terms

Our appliances are produced with the greatest of care. However, a defect may still occur. Our consumer services department will repair this upon request, either during or after the guarantee period. The service life of the appliance will not, however, be reduced as a result.

This declaration of guarantee terms is based on European Union Directive 99/44/EC and the provisions of the Civil Code. The statutory rights that the consumer has under this legislation are not affected by this declaration of guarantee terms.

This declaration does not affect the vendor's statutory warranty to the end user. The appliance is guaranteed within the context of and in adherence with the following terms:

  1. In accordance with provisions laid down in paragraphs 2 to 15, we will remedy free of charge any defect that occurs within 24 months from the date the appliance is delivered to the first end user. These guarantee terms do not apply in the event of use for professional or equivalent purposes.
  2. Performing the guarantee means that the appliance is returned to the condition it was in before the defect occurred. Defective parts are replaced or repaired. Parts replaced free of charge become our property.
  3. So as to avoid more severe damage, the defect must be brought to our attention immediately.
  4. Applying the guarantee is subject to the consumer providing proof of purchase showing the purchase and/or delivery date.
  5. The guarantee will not apply if damage caused to delicate parts, such as glass (vitreous ceramic), synthetic materials and rubber, is the result of inappropriate use.
  6. The guarantee cannot be called on for minor faults that do not affect the value or the overall reliability of the appliance.
  7. The statutory warranty does not apply when defects are caused by:

a chemical or electrochemical reaction caused by water,
abnormal environmental conditions in general,
unsuitable operating conditions,
contact with harsh substances.

  1. The guarantee does not apply to defects due to transport which have occurred outside of our responsibility. Nor will the guarantee cover those caused by inadequate installation or assembly, lack of maintenance or failure to respect the assembly instructions or directions for use.
  2. Defects that result from repairs or measures carried out by people who are not qualified or expert or defects that result from the addition of non-original accessories or spare parts are not covered by the guarantee.

  3. Appliances that are easy to transport may be delivered or sent to the consumer services department. Home repairs are only anticipated for bulky appliances or built-in appliances.

  4. If the appliances are built-in, built-under, fixed or suspended in such a way that removing and replacing them in the place where they are fitted takes more than half an hour, the costs that result therefrom will be charged for. Connected damage caused by these removal and replacement operations will be the responsibility of the user.
  5. If, during the guarantee period, repairing the same defect repeatedly is not conclusive, or if the repair costs are considered disproportionate, in agreement with the consumer, the defective appliance may be replaced with another appliance of the same value. In this event, we reserve the right to ask for a financial contribution calculated according to the length of time it has been used.
  6. A repair under guarantee does not mean that the normal guarantee period will be extended nor that a new guarantee period begins.
  7. We give a twelve month guarantee for repairs, limited to the same defect.
  8. Except in the event where liability is legally imposed, this declaration of guarantee terms excludes any compensation for damage outside the appliance for which the consumer wishes to assert his rights. In the event of legally admitted liability, compensation will not exceed the purchase price paid for the appliance.

These guarantee terms are only valid for appliances purchased and used in Belgium. For exported appliances, the user must first make sure that they satisfy the technical conditions (e.g.: voltage, frequency, installation instructions, type of gas, etc.) for the country concerned and that they can withstand the local climatic and environmental conditions. For appliances purchased abroad, the user must first ensure that they meet the qualifications required in Belgium. Non-essential or requested adjustments are not covered by the guarantee and are not possible in all cases.

Our consumer services department is always at your disposal, even after the guarantee period has expired.
