This appliance contains the coolant isobutane (R600a), a natural gas which is environmentally friendly. Although it is flammable, it does not damage the ozone layer and does not increase the greenhouse effect. The use of this coolant has, however, led to a slight increase in the noise level of the appliance. In addition to the noise of the compressor, you might be able to hear the coolant flowing around the system. This is unavoidable, and does not have any adverse effect on the performance of the appliance. Care must be taken during the transportation and setting up of the appliance that no parts of the cooling system are damaged. Leaking coolant can damage the eyes.

Notes on replacing the light source

• This product contains a light source of energy efficiency class G.

- The light source in this product may only be replaced by a professional.

Notes on daily use

• Do not put hot food in the machine.
• Do not place food directly against the rear panel.
• Frozen food must not be refrozen after defrosting.
• Store packaged frozen food according to the instructions of the frozen food manufacturer.
• Do not place carbonated fizzy drinks in the freezer compartment as the pressure they generate can cause them to explode and damage the appliance.
• Open the door as rarely as possible.
• Do not leave the door open too long.
• Do not set the thermostat too low.
• To reduce energy consumption, leave all accessories, such as drawers, shelves or racks in the appliance.

Notes on installation

• Unpack the machine and check for damage. Do not connect the machine if it is damaged. Report any damage immediately to the manufacturer. Save the original packaging for possible return shipment.
• Wait at least four hours before connecting the unit to allow the coolant to distribute itself in the cooling circuit.
• Ensure that there is sufficient air circulation around the unit. Otherwise, the unit may overheat.
• If possible, the spacers on the unit should rest against the wall. This prevents burns caused by touching the hot compressor or condenser.
• The unit must not be installed near radiators or cookers.
• Make sure that the mains plug is always accessible after the unit has been installed.
• Install this unit in a location where the ambient temperature corresponds to the climate class indicated on the unit's nameplate:

SN	Low	This cooling unit is designed for use at ambient temperatures of 10-32 °C.
N	Moderate	This cooling unit is intended for use at ambient temperatures of 16-32 °C.
ST	Subtropical	This cooling unit is intended for use at ambient temperatures of 16-38 °C.
T	Tropical	This cooling unit is intended for use at ambient temperatures of 16-43 °C.

Notes on cleaning and maintenance

• Before cleaning and maintenance, switch the machine off and unplug the power cord from the wall outlet.
• Do not clean the machine with metal objects. Do not use sharp objects to remove frost from the machine. Use a plastic scraper.
• All electrical work required to service the unit should be performed by a qualified electrician or competent person.

Special instructions for freezers and chest freezers

• Children between the ages of 3 and 8 are allowed to fill refrigerators with food and remove food.
• When positioning the machine, make sure that the mains cable is not pinched or damaged.
• Ensure that there are no multiple sockets or power supply units on the rear of the machine.

To avoid contamination of food, please follow the instructions below:

• Prolonged opening of the door can cause a significant temperature rise in the compartments of the unit.
• Clean surfaces that may come into contact with food regularly. Clean the water drain regularly.
• Store raw meat and fish in suitable containers in the refrigerator so that meat and fish do not come into contact with or drip onto other foods.

Notes on the freezer compartments

• Two-star freezer compartments are suitable for storing pre-frozen food, storing or making ice cream and making ice cubes.
• One-, two- and three-star freezer compartments are not suitable for freezing fresh food.
• If the refrigerator is left empty for a long period of time, switch it off, let it defrost, clean it, dry it and leave the door open to prevent mould from forming in the appliance.

WARNING

When using, servicing and disposing of the unit, pay attention to the left symbol on the rear of the unit or on the compressor. This symbol warns of possible fires.

TEMPERATURE CONTROL

The temperature in the refrigerator compartment and in the freezer compartment is controlled by the temperature controller installed in the middle of the refrigerator compartment.

Turn the thermostat knob to regulate the temperature inside the refrigerator.

The marks on the knob are not the exact number of the degrees of temperature but the temperature grades from [1] to [7]. The first grade corresponds to the highest temperature and the 7th grade corresponds to the lowest temperature the refrigerator can produce. Turn the knob from [1] to [7], the temperature decreases continuously.

Set the thermostat knob to [3] or [4] position for a normal use. Notice that the product is set for operation at a specific ambient range between 16°C and 38°C. The appliance may not work properly if it is left for a long period at a temperature above or below the indicate range.

The indoor temperatures are influenced by the following factors:

• Ambient temperature
  • Frequency of door opening
  • Amount of stored foods
  • Installation of the appliance

CARE AND MAINTENANCE

Defrosting

• Frost can accumulate on the inside of the unit and defrost automatically during the compressor cycle.
• The water is led through the outlet opening into the collecting tray above the compressor, where it evaporates.
• Make sure that the drain hole is cleaned regularly so that the water can escape from the storage compartment.

Cleaning the unit

• Remove all shelves and the vegetable drawer. First remove the lower door compartment so that they can remove the vegetable compartment.
• Wipe the inside of the machine with a damp cloth and some detergent. Then wipe with clear, warm water.
• Wash the shelves and vegetable compartment in water with detergent and dry the parts before putting them back in the machine. Clean the outside of the unit with a damp cloth.
• The grille of the capacitor on the back of the unit and the adjacent components can be sucked off with a soft brush attachment.

Cleaning tips

Condensation may form on the outside of the unit. This may be due to a change in room temperature. Wipe off the condensation water. If the problem persists, please contact a qualified technician.

Maintenance

• Have the lamps replaced by a specialist.
- When you move the unit, hold it by the sides or on the floor. Do not hold it by the edges of the top
- The unit should be serviced by an authorized technician and only original spare parts should be used. Never attempt to repair the device yourself. Repairs by inexperienced persons can lead to injuries or serious malfunctions.
- If the unit will not be used for a long time, disconnect it from the power supply. Remove all food and clean the unit. Leave the door open to avoid unpleasant odours.
