• To avoid vibration, the appliance must be leveled.

• If required, adjust the leveling feet to compensate for the uneven floor.

• The front should be slightly higher than the rear to aid in door closing.

• Leveling feet can be turned easily by tipping the cabinet slightly.

• Turn the leveling feet counter clockwise to raise the unit, clockwise to lower it. Changing the light

• Any replacement or maintenance of the LED lamps is intended to be made by the manufacturer, its service agent or similar qualified person. ATTENTION This product contains two light sources of energy eciency class (F).(G). Connecting the appliance After installing the appliance, connect the power plug into a socket outlet. ATTENTION After connecting the power supply cord (or plug) to the outlet, wait 2 or 3 hours before you put food into the appliance. If you add food before the appliance has cooled completely, your food may spoil. Tips for energy saving

• Do not place the appliance near cookers, radiators or other heat sources. If the ambient temperature is high, the compressor will run more frequently and for longer, resulting in increased energy consumption.

• Ensure that there is sufficient ventilation at the base of the appliance, on the sides of the appliance and at the back of the appliance. Never cover ventilation openings.

• Please also observe the spacing dimensions in the chapter “Installation”.

• The arrangement of drawers, shelves and racks as shown in the illustration offers the most efficient use of energy and should therefore be retained as far as possible. All drawers and shelves should remain in the appliance to keep the temperature stable and save energy.

• To obtain a larger storage space (e.g. for large refrigerated/frozen goods), the middle drawers can be removed. The top and bottom drawers and shelves should be removed last if necessary.

• An evenly filled refrigerator/freezer compartment contributes to optimal energy use. Therefore, avoid empty or half-empty compartments.

• Allow warm food to cool before placing it in the refrigerator/freezer. Food that has already cooled down increases energy efficiency.

• Allow frozen food to defrost in the refrigerator. The coldness of the frozen food reduces the energy consumption in the refrigerator compartment and thus increases the energy efficiency.

• Open the door only as briefly as necessary to minimise cold loss. Opening the door briefly and closing it properly reduces energy consumption.

• The door seals of your appliance must be perfectly intact so that the doors close properly and energy consumption is not increased unnecessarily.11

Tips on storing food Freezer compartment

• The freezer is designated for the storage of food frozen at very low temperature, long-term storage of frozen food, and for the production of ice.

• Only use the shelves in the door of the freezer to store frozen food, not for storing hot food designated for freezing.

• Do not put fresh and frozen food next to each other. The frozen food may thaw.

• When freezing fresh food (such as meat, fish or chopped meat), cut them into parts that can be used at the same time.

• Storing frozen food: instructions are usually stated on the packages, which must be followed. If there is no information on the packaging, food should not be stored for longer than three months from the date of purchase.

• When purchasing frozen food, make sure that it was frozen at a suitable temperature and that the packaging is not damaged.

• Frozen food should be kept in suitable packages to retain the quality and should be returned to the freezer compartment as soon as possible.

• If a package of frozen food shows moisture or abnormal bulging, it is probable that it was stored at the wrong temperature and the content is spoiled.

• The storage period for frozen food depends on the room temperature, the thermostat setting, the frequency of opening the door of the freezer, the type of food and the time of transporting the product from the shop to the household. Always follow the instructions printed on the packaging and never exceed the maximum storage time stated on the package. Cooling compartment

• To reduce moisture and subsequent ice build-up, never put liquid into the refrigerator in unsealed containers. Frost tends to concentrate in the coolest parts of the evaporator. Storing uncovered liquids results in a more frequent need for defrosting.

• Never put warm foods in the refrigerator. These should first cool down at room temperature and then be placed so as to ensure adequate air circulation in the refrigerator.

• Foods or food containers should not touch the back wall of the refrigerator because they could freeze to the wall. Do not keep regularly opening the door of the refrigerator.

• Meat and clean fish (packed in a package or plastic foil) can be placed in the refrigerator, which can be used in 1–2 days.

• Fruit and vegetables without packaging can be placed in the part designated for fresh fruit and vegetables. ATTENTION The optimal temperature setting of each compartment depends on the ambient temperature. Above optimal temperature is based on the ambient temperature of 25 °C.15

• Remove the contents of the drawer. Hold the handle of the vegetable drawer and pull it out completely until it stops.

• Lift the vegetable drawer up and remove it by pulling it out. ATTENTION Soft towels or sponge dipped in water and non-corrosive neutral detergents are suggested for cleaning. The freezer of shall be finally cleaned with clean water and dry cloth. Open the door for natural drying before the power is turned on. Do not use hard brushes, clean steel balls, wire brushes, abrasives, such as toothpastes, organic solvents (such as alcohol, acetone, banana oil, etc.), boiling water, acid or alkaline items clean refrigerator considering that this may damage the fridge surface and interior.17

Stop using Power failure: In case of power failure, even if it is in summer, foods inside the appliance can be kept for several hours; during the power failure, the times of door opening shall be reduced, and no more fresh food shall be put into the appliance. Long-time nonuse: The appliance shall be unplugged and then cleaned; then the doors are left open to prevent odor. Moving: Before the refrigerator is moved, take all objects inside out, fix the glass partitions, vegetable holder, freezing chamber drawers and etc. with tape, and tighten the leveling feet; close the doors and seal them with tape. During moving, the appliance shall not be laid upside down or horizontally, or be vibrated; the inclination during movement shall be no more than 45°. ATTENTION The appliance shall run continuously once it is started. Generally, the operation of the appliance shall not be nterrupted; otherwise the service life may be impaired. Foods can be preserved for a couple of hours even in summer in case of power failure; it is recommended to reduce the frequency of opening door.18

TROUBLESHOOTING The following simple issues can be handled by the user. Please call the after-sale service department if the issues are not solved. Problem Possible Causes Solution Not operate The power supply is not turned on and the plug is not firmly inserted. Low voltage, power failure or part of the circuit tripped. Insert the power cord plug firmly. Check the power supply at home. Light not on The appliance is not powered on. The light is broken. Unplug and re-plug the power cord. Replace the light with a new one. Fruits or vegetables are frozen Has the food been placed at the back of the fridge? The area near the back wall is where the temperatures are coldest. Fruits or vegetables are stored in the Fresh/ Chill zone. Not placing food which may freeze easily at the back of the fridge compartment. The Fresh/Chill zone is only for meat/ fish. Fridge/freezer is over-cooling Temperature control is not set correctly. Set the temperature higher. Compressor working for a long time High ambient temperature causing long working time. Putting too much food in at one time. Food is put in before it has cooled down. Opening the door too often. The frost layer inside is too thick. This is normal. Do not put too much food in at one time. Wait until the food has cooled down before putting it in. Do not open the door too often. Need to defrost. Door does not close properly Door is stuck with objects. Too much food in. Door gasket deformed. Do not put in too much food. Place the appliance stably. Heat the door gasket, then cool it for restoration (with an electrical drier or hot water for heating). Outer wall is hot When the appliance is operating, heat is dissipated to the outside through the metal tubes inside the cabinet. Higher ambient temperatures in the summer cause the temperature of the outer wall to rise. Higher temperature on the outer wall is normal. Increase the heat dissipation space, or put the appliance in a ventilated and cool place. Cross or vertical beams are hot There are metal tubes inside the beams, and the heat released from the tubes prevents condensation. This is normal. Odors Spoiled food Food with strong odors The interior compartment is dirty. Clean and remove any spoiled food. Make sure strong smelling food is wrapped airtight. Clean the interior compartment. The actual temperature differs from the set temperature When warm food is put in, the temperature will rise temporarily. After setting a new temperature, it will take some time for the temperature in the compartment to reach the set temperature when the door is not opened. After the temperature stability, the actual temperatures at different locations within the compartment are different, with a deviation of about ±3°C. This is normal. Wait for some time before testing the actual temperature. Condensation forms on the outside Condensation may form when the humidity in the room is high. This is normal. Wipe off the condensation using a dry cloth.19

Problem Possible Causes Solution Condensation forms inside the fridge and drawers The fridge maintains a high humidity to keep vegetables and other food items fresh. Humidity is too high in the room and doors have been opened frequently. The door gasket are not tight. Wipe off the condensation using a dry cloth. Do not open doors as frequently or do not keep them open too long. Check the door gasket, clean or correct position. Frost around the vents Door is not closed properly. The door gasket are not tight. Make sure food does not block the door. Check the door gasket, clean or correct position. Hard to open the door The difference in air pressure between the inside and outside of the compartment may sometimes make it hard to open the freezer door. Wait a few moments, and then try to open the door slowly. Not making ice cubes (Only models with ice maker) The ice making function not turned on. The appliance is not being supplied with water. The water pipe has kinks in it. The water pipe connection is installed incorrectly. Water pressure is too low. Switch on the ice maker. Check whether the water supply is on. Straighten out the kinks. Check the water connection. Check the pressure of the water supply, or whether the filter is clogged.20

• The OK-temperature indicator can be used to determine temperatures below +4°C. Gradually reduce the temperature if the sign does not indicate “OK”.

• To ensure the temperature in this area, do not change the positioning of the shelf. Inforced air refrigerators (equipped with a fan or No Frost models), the symbol of the coldest zone is not represented because the temperature inside is homogeneous. Temperature indicator setting

• To help you set your refrigerator well, it is equipped with a temperature indicator that will monitor the average temperature in the coldest zone.

• WARNING: This indicator is intended to work only with your refrigerator, do not use it in another refrigerator (in fact, the coldest zone is not the same), or for any other use. Checking the temperature in the coldest zone

• With the temperature indicator, you can check regularly that the temperature of the coldest zone is correct. Indeed, the internal temperature of the refrigerator depends on several factors such as the ambient temperature of the room, the amount of food stored and the frequency of door opening. Take these factors into consideration when setting the device.

• When the indicator shows « OK », this means that your thermostat is well adjusted and the internal temperature correct.

• If the indicator of temperature turns WHITE, this means that the temperature is too high; in this case, increase the refrigerator temperature control setting and wait for 12 hours before performing a new visual inspection of the indicator. When fresh food has been introduced or the door has been left open, it is possible for the indicator of temperature to turn WHITE after a while.01
