Turn over the hinge and reinsert the pins and locking washer.
Screw the lower hinge on the left-hand side again. Screw in the adjustable foot (5) on the right-hand side (see Fig. H).
- Stand the appliance upright again. While doing so, hold the appliance door quite firmly in place.
Before screwing the upper hinge back on, ensure that the door closes flush with the appliance housing horizontally and vertically so that all seals close.
Then put the upper hinge (10) back in place and screw on the hinge with the three screws. Use a wrench to tighten the screws (see Fig. 1).
Then place the hinge cover and screw covers back into position (see Fig. J).

Please note: The door seal adapts to the new door hinge after a few hours.

If tilted to an angle of more than 40^ during transport or when changing the door fittings, wait 4 hours before connecting it to the mains and switching it on to enable the refrigerant circuit to settle.

9.2. Setting up the appliance

Place the appliance in an appropriate location (see also section "3.3.1. Location" on page 44).
Ensure that the appliance is level, compensate for any unevenness in the floor by screwing in the screw feet.
Level the refrigerator with a spirit level.

To fully open the door, the room dimensions stated in the following figures must be available.

9.3. Removing and reinserting the wire shelf

To remove the wire shelf (8), open the door fully.

• Lift the wire shelf upwards with both hands and remove the wire shelf from the cooling chamber (6) at a slight angle.

To assemble the wire shelf, proceed as follows:

Insert the wire shelf into the guide rails and push in as far as it will go.

10. Operating the appliance

• Connect the appliance to an earthed mains socket. The local mains voltage must correspond to the technical specifications for the appliance.

The temperature control (7) setting automatically adjusts the temperature setting in the cooling chamber (6) and ice cube compartment (9).

The cooling temperature can be set as follows:

0 The appliance is switched off

1 The lowest level of cooling (the warmest at approx. 6^ )
2-4 Intermediate position
5 The highest level of cooling (the coldest at approx. -4^ )

Fluctuating ambient temperatures can cause the energy consumption and temperature inside the refrigerator to rise.

Before loading fresh food, set the cooling chamber (6) temperature to the coldest setting 5 and close the door.
- Check the temperature in the cooling chamber compartment with a thermometer. The ideal temperature is +5^ C . You can load the food once this temperature is reached. Them set the temperature control (7) to a centre position.

The internal temperatures can be influenced by factors such as the installation location, ambient temperature and the number of times the door is opened. Take these factors into account when setting the temperature control (7).

SILVERCREST

Do not load the cooling chamber (6) and ice cube compartment (9) before the appliance has cooled.

Place food or drinks, which are at max. room temperature, into the refrigerator. Do not place hot food or drinks into the cooling chamber (6).

10.1. Switching off the appliance

To de-energise the appliance, set the temperature control (7) to 0 and pull the mains plug out of the socket.

Wait approx. 10 minutes before switching on the appliance again.

10.2. Tips on saving energy

The energy consumption will be lowest if the wire shelf (8) with storage tray (1) are left inside the appliance when it is in use.

If the appliance is left empty for an extended period of time, switch it off. Defrost and clean the appliance and allow it to dry. Leave the door open to prevent mould from forming in the appliance.

Do not position the appliance near a heat source (radiator or cooker etc.).

Ensure that air can circulate freely around the fridge.

During defrosting, turn the frozen food in the cooling chamber. This enables the temperature of the frozen food to be used to cool the food in the cooling chamber.

If a layer of ice has formed, defrost the appliance. A thick coating of ice will adversely affect the energy consumption.

If the door is left open for a long time, this can cause the temperature inside the appliance zones to increase significantly. Only open the door briefly when loading and removing foodstuffs. Less cold can escape if the door is left open for only a short time and therefore the appliance requires less energy. Opening the door for less time also means that less ice forms on the walls of the ice cube compartment.

Set the temperature control (7) according to how full the appliance is.

10.3. Storing food in the cooling chamber

NOTICE!

Possible material damage!

Possible risk of damage to the door seal

Sensitive surfaces: Do not allow oil and grease to come into contact with the plastic parts and the door seal as the surface can become porous and brittle.

To avoid food from becoming contaminated, please observe the following instructions:

Regularly clean surfaces that may come into contact with food and accessible drain systems.

SILVERCREST

• Store raw meat and fish in appropriate containers in the refrigerator to ensure that they do not come into contact with or drip onto other food.
  Store food on plates, in appropriate containers.
  Distribute the food evenly throughout the appliance. Please note that food must not touch the rear wall of the cooling chamber, as this could cause frost and condensation to form.
• Allow hot foods to cool down before placing them into the fridge to avoid increasing the energy consumption.
  Ensure that foods that take on other smells easily, such as butter, milk and quark, are well packaged. i.e. in tightly sealed containers.
  Store food in the correct cooling zone according to its type and sensitivity, see Fig. A.
• Storing vegetables with a high water content causes condensation to form on the vegetable containers. This does not impair the proper function of the cooling chamber.
  Dry vegetables thoroughly before placing in the cooling chamber. The storage time is reduced for vegetables with a high water content (e.g. leaf vegetables, cucumbers).

11. Using the ice cube compartment

Drinks in bottles and cans, particularly those that are carbonated, must not be stored in the ice cube compartment (9) as the bottles and cans may burst.
Fruit can be frozen in the ice cube compartment and ice cubes can be made.

The ice cube compartment is not suitable for freezing foods or storing highly perishable foods. Food that has already been frozen can, if necessary, be stored in suitable packaging for 1-3 days.

11.1. Making ice cubes

Clean an ice cube tray thoroughly before using for the first time.
Fill the container with drinking water.
Place the ice cube tray in the ice cube compartment.

As soon as the ice cubes are frozen and you require ice cubes, remove the ice cube tray from the ice cube compartment and press the ice cubes out of the mould.

SILVERCREST

12. Defrosting the ice cube compartment

WARNING! Risk of injury!

There is a possible risk of burns resulting from the low temperatures.

• Do not touch the ice cube compartment's frozen inner walls or frozen foods with your hands. Use a dry cloth, for example, to hold the frozen products.

20. MLAP GmbH Warranty

Dear customer,

The warranty on this product is 3 years from the date of purchase. In the event of defects in this product, you have legal rights against the product vendor. These legal rights are in no way limited by the warranty described below.

20.1. Conditions of warranty

The warranty period begins on the date of purchase. Please take care to keep the original purchase receipt. This document will serve as a proof of purchase.

If, within three years of the date of purchase of this product, any defect in material or manufacture should become evident, the product will – as we choose – be repaired free of charge or replaced. This warranty is subject to presentation, within the three-year term, of the defective product and the proof of purchase (receipt) and a brief, written description of what constitutes the defect and when it became evident.

If the defect is covered by our warranty, you will receive back the repaired product or a new replacement. Repair or exchange of the product does not lead to a renewed warranty period.

20.2. Warranty period and legal claims for defects

The warranty period is not prolonged by the above fulfilment. This also applies for replaced and repaired parts. Any damage or defects present at the time of purchase must be notified immediately after unpacking. Repairs that are carried out after the expiration of the warranty period are subject to a charge.

20.3. Scope of warranty

The product is manufactured in accordance with strict quality guidelines and thoroughly tested before dispatch.

The warranty applies for defects in materials or manufacture. This warranty does not extend to product parts that are subject to normal wear and can therefore be regarded as wearing parts or to damage to fragile parts, e.g. switches, batteries or parts made of glass.

This warranty is void if the product has been damaged or not properly used or serviced. For proper use of the product, exact compliance with all instructions listed in the user manual is required. It is essential to avoid procedures and use for purposes against which the user manual advises or warns.

The product is intended for private use only and not for industrial/commercial use. Improper handling and usage not in accordance with the intended purpose, use of force and any interventions that are not carried out by our authorised service centre will render the warranty null and void.

20.4. Processing of warranty claims

For speedy processing of your request, please observe the following instructions:

• For all enquiries, please keep the receipt and the article number (e.g. IAN 12345) to hand as proof of purchase.
• The article number is to be found on the type plate, an engraving, on the title page of your instructions (bottom left) or on an adhesive label on the rear or underside.
