3 USING THE APPLIANCE

3.1 Thermostat Setting

The fridge thermostat automatically regulates the temperature of the compartment. Fridge temperatures can be obtained by rotating the knob to higher numbers, 1 to 5.

Important note: Do not try to rotate the knob beyond position 1, it will stop appliance from working.

Thermostat Settings

• Set the knob to a low/medium position, up to 3, for short-term storage of food in the appliance.
• Set the knob to a medium position, 3 or 4, for long-term storage of food in the appliance.
• For long-term storage of food in the refrigerator, you can set knop maximum position (4 - 5).

Larders (coolers) have not any freezer compartment but can cool up to

4-6°C.

3.2 Temperature SettingsWarnings

• The ambient temperature, temperature of the freshly stored food and how often the door is opened affects the temperature in the fridge. If required, change the temperature setting.
• It is not recommended that you operate your fridge in environments colder than 10^ in terms of its efficiency.

• When setting the thermostat, take into consideration how often the appliance door is opened and closed, how much food is stored in the refrigerator, and the environment in which the refrigerator is located.

• When the appliance is first switched on, allow it to run for 24 hours in order to reach operating temperature. During this time, do not open the door and do not keep a large quantity of food inside.

• Unplug your appliance during a power cut to prevent damage to the compressor. Once power is restored, delay plugging in your appliance for 5 to 10 minutes. This will help prevent damage to the appliance's components.
• Your appliance is designed to operate in the ambient temperature ranges stated in the standards, according to the climate class stated in the information label. It is not recommended that your fridge is operated in the environments which are outside of the stated temperature ranges. This will reduce the cooling efficiency of the appliance.
• Your appliance is designed to operate in the ambient temperature (N = 16^ - 32^) intervals stated in the standards, according to the climate class displayed on the information label. We do not recommend operating your appliance out of the stated temperature limits in terms of cooling effectiveness.

Climate class and meaning:

T (tropical): This refrigerating appliance is intended to be used at ambient temperatures ranging from 16^ to 43^ .

ST (subtropical): This refrigerating appliance is intended to be used at ambient temperatures ranging from 16^ to 38^ .

N (temperate): This refrigerating appliance is intended to be used at ambient temperatures ranging from 16^ to 32^ .

SN (extended temperate): This refrigerating appliance is intended to be used at ambient temperatures ranging from 10^ to 32^ .

3.3 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 temperature has not been set properly

It may be difficult to see the indicator, make sure it is properly lit. 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 putting fresh food into the appliance, it is normal for the indication "OK" not to hear in the temperature setting indicator. There is an abnormal build up of ice crystals of ice crystals (bottom wall of the furnace) on the refrigerator compartment, evaporator (overloaded appliance, high in temperature, frequent door openings), the temperature setting device on a bar position until compressor off periods obtained again.

Store 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.

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.

4 FOOD STORAGE

• To reduce humidity and avoid the consequent formation of frost, always store liquids in sealed containers in the refrigerator. Frost tends to concentrate in the coldest parts of the evaporating liquid and, in time, your appliance will require more frequent defrosting.
• Never place warm food in the refrigerator. Warm food should be allowed to cool at room temperature and should be arranged to ensure adequate air circulation in the refrigerator compartment.
• Make sure no items are in direct contact with the rear wall of the appliance as frost will develop and packaging will stick to it. Do not open the refrigerator door frequently.
• We recommend that meat and clean fish are loosely wrapped and stored on the glass shelf just above the vegetable bin where the air is cooler, as this provides the best storage conditions.
• Store loose fruit and vegetable items in the crisper containers.
• Store loose fruit and vegetables in the crisper.
• Storing fruit and vegetables separately helps prevent ethylene-sensitive vegetables (green leaves, broccoli, carrot, etc.) being affected by ethylene-releaser fruits (banana, peach, apricot, fig etc.).
• Do not put wet vegetables into the refrigerator.
• Storage time for all food products depends on the initial quality of the food and an uninterrupted refrigeration cycle before refrigerator storage.

• To avoid cross-contamination do not store meat products with fruit and vegetables. Water leaking from meat may contaminate other products in the refrigerator. You should package meat products and clean any leakages on the shelves.

• Do not put food in front of the air flow passage.

• Consume packaged foods before the recommended expiry date.

NOTE: Potatoes, onions and garlic should not be stored in the refrigerator.

• For normal working conditions, it will be sufficient to adjust the temperature setting of your refrigerator to +4^ .
• The temperature of the fridge compartment should be in the range of 0 - 8^ , fresh foods below 0^ are iced and rotted, bacterial load increases above 8^ , and spoils.
• Do not put hot food in the refrigerator immediately, wait for the temperature to pass outside. Hot foods increase the degree of your refrigerator and cause food poisoning and unnecessary spoiling of the food.
• Meat, fish, etc. should be store in the chiller compartment of the food, and the vegetable compartment is preferred for vegetables. (if available)
• To prevent cross contamination, meat products and fruit vegetables are not stored together.
• Foods should be placed in the refrigerator in closed containers or covered to prevent moisture and odors.

The table below is a quick guide to show you the most efficient way to store the major food groups in your refrigerator compartment.

Food	Maximum storage time	How and where to store
Vegetables and fruits	1 week Vegetable	le bin
Meat and fish	2 - 3 days	Wrap in plastic foil, bags, or in a meat container and store on the glass shelf
Fresh cheese	3 - 4 days	On the designated door shelf
Butter and margarine	1 week	On the designated door shelf
Bottled products e.g. milk and yoghurt	Until the expiry date recommended by the producer	On the designated door shelf
Eggs 1 month		On the designated egg shelf
Cooked food	2 days All shelves

5 CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE

Disconnect the unit from the power supply before cleaning.

Do not wash your appliance by pouring water on it.

Do not use abrasive products, detergents or soaps for cleaning the science. After washing, rinse with cleaner and dry carefully. When you have shed cleaning, reconnect the plug to the gas supply with dry hands.

• Make sure that no water enters the lamp housing and other electrical components.
• The appliance should be cleaned regularly using a solution of bicarbonate of soda and lukewarm water.
• Clean the accessories separately by hand with soap and water. Do not wash accessories in a dish washer.
• Clean the condenser with a brush at least twice a year. This will help you to save on energy costs and increase productivity.

The power supply must be disconnected during cleaning.

5.1 Defrosting

Defrosting the Refrigerator Compartment

• Defrosting occurs automatically in the refrigerator compartment during operation. The water is collected by the evaporation tray and evaporates automatically.
• The evaporation tray and the water drain hole should be cleaned periodically with the defrost drain plug to prevent the water from collecting at the bottom of the refrigerator instead of flowing out.
• You can also clean the drain hole by pouring half a glass of water down it.

Replacing LED Lighting

If your appliance has LED lighting contact the help desk as this should

be changed by authorized personnel only.

7 BEFORECALLINGAFTERSALES SERVICE

Your fridge is not operating

Check if:

There is power
- The plug is correctly connected to the socket
- The plug or mains fuse has blown
- The socket is faulty. Examine this by plugging your fridge into a working socket.

The appliance performs poorly

Check if:

• The appliance is overloaded
  The doors are closed properly
  There is any dust on the condenser
• There is enough space near the rear and side walls.

Your fridge is operating noisily

Motor noise: Indicates the compressor is operating normally. The compressor may cause more noise for a short time when it is first activated.

Bubbling noise and splash: Due to the flow of the refrigerant in the tubes of the system.

Air blowing noise: Indicates normal operation of the system due to the circulation of air.

There is a build-up of humidity inside the cooler

Check if:

• All food is packed properly. Containers must be dry before being placed in the fridge.
• The fridge door is opened frequently. Humidity of the room enters the fridge when the doors are opened. Humidity increases faster when the doors are opened more frequently, especially if the humidity of the room is high.

The door is not opening and closing properly

Check if:

• There is food or packaging preventing the door from closing

• The door compartments, shelves and drawers are placed properly

• The door joints are broken or torn
• Your fridge is level.

Recommendations

• If the appliance is switched off or unplugged, wait at least 5 minutes before plugging the appliance in or restarting it in order to prevent damage to the compressor.
• If you will not use your fridge for a long time (e.g. in summer holidays) unplug it. Clean your fridge according to chapter cleaning and leave the door open to prevent humidity and smell.
• If a problem persists after you have followed all the above instructions, please consult the nearest authorised service centre.
• The appliance you have purchased is designed for domestic use only. It is not suitable for commercial or common use. If the consumer uses the appliance in a way that does not comply with this, we emphasise that the manufacturer and the dealer will not be responsible for any repair and failure within the guarantee period.

8 TIPS FOR SAVING ENERGY

1. Install the appliance in a cool, well-ventilated room, but not in direct sunlight and not near a heat source (such as a radiator or oven) otherwise an insulating plate should be used.
2. Allow warm food and drinks to cool before placing them inside the appliance.
3. Drinks or other liquids should be covered when inside the appliance. If left uncovered, the humidity inside the appliance will increase, therefore the appliance uses more energy. Keeping drinks and other liquids covered helps preserve their smell and taste.
4. Avoid keeping the doors open for long periods and opening the doors too frequently as warm air will enter the appliance and cause the compressor to switch on unnecessarily often.
5. Keep the covers of the different temperature compartments ( such as the crisper and chiller) closed.
6. The door gasket must be clean and pliable. In case of wear, replace the gasket.
