SWITCHING ON THE APPLIANCE

• Before switching on, place the appliance in an upright position and wait at least 3 hours without moving the appliance. This will give the refrigeration circuit time to settle and operate efciently.

• Clean the appliance thoroughly, especially the interior, before use (See cleaning and maintenance).

• Installation of the appliance and electrical connections must be carried out by a qualied technician, in accordance with the Installation instructions and local regulations.

• Use the installation procedure shown in the front of this instruction booklet. This product is intended to be used in proper kitchen units only.

• The appliance must be connected to a properly installed fused socket. The power supply (AC) and voltage must match with the details on the rating plate (located inside of the appliance to the left of the salad crisper).

• Insert the plug into a socket with an efcient ground connection. If the socket has no ground contact or the plug does not match, we suggest you call an authorized electrician for assistance.

• The Manufacturer is not responsible for failure to complete the ground connection as described in this booklet.

• There could be an odour when you rst switch on the appliance. It will disappear after the appliance starts to cool. HOW TO OPERATE THE APPLIANCE PART- 2. Thermostat Setting

• The thermostat automatically regulates the inside temperature of the refrigerator compartment and freezer compartment. By rotating the knob from position 1 to 5 colder temperatures can be obtained.

• The “0” position shows the thermostat is closed and no cooling is available.

• For short-term storage of food in the freezer compartment, set the knob between minimum and medium position (1- 3).

• For long-term storage of food in the freezer compartment, you can set the knob to medium position (3-4).

• NOTE: The ambient temperature, temperature of the freshly stored food and how often the door is opened affects the temperature in the refrigerator and freezer compartments, if necessary adjust the thermostat.Downloaded from www.vandenborre.be EN - 29 -

• The freezer compartment of the appliance cools down to -18

C and less. “Door Open” Indicator

• The “Door Open” indicator on the lock slide indicates whether the door is closed correctly or not.

• If the red indicator is visible the door is still open.

• If the red indicator is invisible, the door is closed correctly.

• Observe that the freezer door should always be kept closed correctly; this will prevent food inside the freezer from defrosting and avoid heavy ice and frost build-up inside the freezer and an unnecessary increase in energy consumption. RED INDICATORDownloaded from www.vandenborre.be EN - 30 - Temperature indicator In order to help you better set your refrigerator, we have equipped it with a temperature indicator located in the coldest area. To better store the food in your refrigerator, especially in the coldest area, make sure the message “OK” appears on the temperature indicator. If « OK » does not appear, this means that the temperature setting has not been done properly. Since “OK” appears in black, it will be difcult to see this indication if the temperature indicator is badly lit. To be able to see this indication properly, there should be enough light. Each time the temperature setting device is changed, wait for the stabilisation of the temperature inside the appliance before proceeding, if necessary, with a new temperature setting. Please change the position of the temperature setting device progressively and wait at least 12 hours before starting a new check and potential change. NOTE: Following repeated openings (or prolonged opening) of the door or after putting fresh food into the appliance, it is normal for the indication “OK” not to appear in the temperature setting indicator. If there is an abnormal ice crystals build up (bottom wall of the appliance) on the refrigerator compartment evaporator (overloaded appliance, high room temperature, frequent door openings), put the temperature setting device on a lower position until compressor off periods are obtained again. Putting food in the coldest area of the refrigerator Your foods will be better stored if you put them in the most appropriate cooling area. The coldest area is just above the crisper. The following symbol indicates the coldest area of your refrigerator. To be sure to have a low temperature in this area, make sure the shelf is located at the level of this symbol, as shown in the illustration. OKDownloaded from www.vandenborre.be EN - 31 - The upper limit of the coldest area is indicated by the lower side of the sticker (head of the arrow). The coldest area upper shelf must be at the same level with the arrow head. The coldest area is below this level. As these shelves are removable, make sure they are always at the same level with these zone limits described on the stickers, in order to guarantee temperatures in this area. Each type of food has an ideal conservation temperature and consequently a particular location to follow.

Locations Products Upper shelves Cooked foods, desserts and all foods to be eaten fast enough Coldest area Meat, poultry, game and raw sh Maximum conservation time: 1 to 2 days. Fresh fruits, cooked pork meat. Crisper Fresh vegetables and fruits. Door-liner Door trays shall contain bottles at the bottom side and, in their upper parts, low volume and currently used products like yoghurt, fresh cream, etc. Butter, cooked cheese and eggs shall be introduced in appropriate holders. FOOD STORAGE IN THE APPLIANCE PART- 3. Refrigerator Compartment The refrigerator compartment is used for storing fresh food for a few days.

• Do not place food in direct contact with the rear wall of the refrigerator compartment. Leave some space around food to allow circulation of air.

• Do not place hot food or evaporating liquid in the refrigerator.

• Always store food in containers or wrapped.

• To reduce humidity and avoid formation of frost, never place liquids in unsealed containers in the refrigerator.

• Store raw meat and poultry in clean, sealed containers on the bottom shelf of the fridge, so they can't touch or drip onto other food.Downloaded from www.vandenborre.be EN - 32 -

• Keep cooked meat separate from raw meat.

• Fruit and vegetables can be put onto the crisper without packaging.

• To avoid the cold air escaping, try not to open the door too often and do not leave the door open for long periods. Freezer Compartment The freezer compartment is used for freezing fresh foods and for storing frozen foods for the period of time indicated on the packaging, and for making ice cube.

• For freezing fresh food; wrap and seal fresh food properly, the packaging should be air tight and should not leak. Special freezer bags, aluminium foil (heavy grade, in doubt double wrap), polythene bags and plastic containers are ideal.

• Do not allow the fresh food to be frozen come into contact with the existing frozen food.

• Always mark the date and content on the pack and do not exceed the stated storage time.

• In case of a power failure or malfunction, the freezer compartment will maintain a sufciently low temperature for food storage. However, avoid opening the freezer door to slow down the temperature rise within the freezer compartment.

• The maximum amount of fresh foods that can be loaded in the freezer within 24 hours is indicated on the rating plate (see Freezing Capacity).

• Never place warm food in the freezer compartment.

• When purchasing and storing frozen food ensure that the packaging is not damaged.

• The storage time and the recommended temperature for storing frozen foods are indicated on the packaging. For storing and using follow the manufacturer’s instructions. if no information is provided food should not be stored for more than 3 months.

• Place the frozen food in the freezer compartment as soon as possible after buying it.

• Once the food is thawed, it must not be refrozen; the food must be cooked as quickly as possible in order to consume or freeze again.

• Making ice cubes: ll the tray with water and place in the freezer compartment. After the water has completely turned to ice the tray can be twisted (as shown below) to remove the ice.Downloaded from www.vandenborre.be EN - 33 - CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE PART- 4.

• Disconnect the appliance from the power supply before cleaning.

• Do not pour water over the appliance.

• The refrigerator compartment should be cleaned periodically using a solution of bicarbonate of soda and lukewarm water.

• Clean the accessories separately with soap and water. Do not put them in the dishwasher.

• Do not use abrasive cleaners, detergents or soaps. After washing rinse with clean water and dry carefully. When the cleaning process has been completed, reconnect the plug with dry hands. Defrosting Defrosting the Refrigerator Compartment

• Defrosting occurs automatically in the refrigerator compartment during operation; the defrost water is collected in the evaporator tray and evaporates automatically.

• The evaporator tray and the defrost water drain should be cleaned periodically with the defrost drain cleaning tool to prevent blockage and water collection on the bottom of the refrigerator.

• You can also pour ½ a glass of water into the drain hole to clean inside. Defrosting the Freezer Compartment (if available)

WARNING: Neverusesharpmetaltools(unlessrecommendedbythemanufacturer)forthis

operationastheycandamagetherefrigerationcircuit. After a period of time frost will build up in certain areas in the freezer compartment, this should be removed periodically (use the scraper if available). Complete defrosting will become necessary if the frost layer exceeds 3-5mm to maintain efciency of the freezer.

• The day before defrost set the thermostat Knob to position “5” to freeze the foods completely.

• During defrosting frozen foods should be wrapped in several layers of paper and kept in a cool place. The inevitable rise in temperature will shorten its storage life.

• Remember to use these foods in a relatively short period of time.

• Set the thermostat knob to position “0” and switch off the appliance.

• Leave the door open to accelerate defrosting. Remove the defrost water from the compartment.Downloaded from www.vandenborre.be EN - 34 -

• Clean the interior by hand with lukewarm water and a little detergent.

• Never use abrasive products or aggressive cleaning agents.

• Dry the inside of the unit, plug in to the mains and set the thermostat knob to position “5”. After 24 hours reset the thermostat to the desired position. Replacing the Light Bulb Whenreplacingthebulboftherefrigeratorcompartment;

1. Unplug the unit from the power supply.

2. Press the hooks on the sides of the light cover to remove.

3. Replace the old bulb with a new one of not more than 15W.

BEFORE CALLING THE AFTER SALES SERVICE PART- 5. If your refrigerator is not working correctly it may be a minor problem, therefore read the following: The appliance does not operate. Check if:

• There is a power failure.

• The mains plug is unplugged.

• The thermostat setting is “0”.

• The wall socket is defective. To check this plug another appliance you know is working into the socket. The appliance performs poorly. Check if:

• You have overloaded the appliance.

• The doors are closed correctly.

• There is adequate ventilation as show in the installation diagram (g.B). Noises from the appliance. The cooling gas which circulates in the refrigerator circuit may make a slight noise (a bubbling sound) even when the compressor in not running. Do not worry, this is quite normal. If the sounds are different. Check if;

• The appliance is installed rmly as described in the installation information.

• For vibrating objects on the appliance.Downloaded from www.vandenborre.be EN - 35 - If there is water in the lower part of the refrigerator. Check if: The drain hole for defrost water is not blocked (use the defrost drain cleaning tool to clean the drain hole). the fridge is not cooling enough The fridge is designed to operate in ambient temperature intervals stated in the standards and according to the climate class stated on the rating label. We do not recommend operating the refrigerator out of the stated temperature value in terms of cooling effectiveness. Climate class Ambient temperature (

T Between 16 and 43 (

ST Between 16 and 38 (

N Between 16 and 32 (

SN Between 10 and 32 (

• Tropical Climate Class is described as between 16

C of ambient temperatures according to EN ISO15502 standards.

• The appliance complies with EN15502, IEC60335-1/ IEC60335-2-24, 2004/108/EC standards. Recommendations

• In order to increase space and improve the appearance the “cooling section” of refrigerators is positioned inside the back wall of the refrigerator compartment. When the compressor is working this wall is covered with frost and water droplets. Do not worry this is quite normal. The appliance should be defrosted only if an excessively thick ice layer forms on the back wall.

• If the appliance is not used for a long time (for example during the summer holidays) set the thermostat knob to position “0”. Defrost and clean the refrigerator leaving the door open to prevent the formation of mildew and smell.Downloaded from www.vandenborre.be EN - 36 -
