3. INSTALLATION

Location

1. Ventilation

The location you choose to install the appliance must be well ventilated. Do not place the appliance near heat sources, like a hob, and avoid direct sunlight to ensure proper cooling and save energy. Do not place the appliance in a damp place to avoid rust or loss of power. The result of dividing the amount of cooling power of the appliance by the total space of the room in which it is installed must be less than 8 g/m^3 .

Note: the amount of refrigerant used by the appliance is specified on the rating plate.

2. Heat dissipation space

During operation, the appliance gives off heat. Therefore, you should leave at least 30 mm of free space at the top, more than 100 mm on both sides, and more than 50 mm at the rear of the appliance. Fig. 2

W (mm)	D (mm)	H (mm)	A (mm)	B (mm)	C(°)	E (mm)	F (mm)
474 447 4	96 800 875	130 ± 5	50 100

Note: figure 2 only shows the space required for the appliance.

3. Flat surface

- Place the appliance on a solid, flat floor to keep it stable, otherwise vibrations and noises will occur. When the appliance is placed on a carpet, straw mat, or polyvinyl chloride, solid support plates should be placed underneath the refrigerator to avoid colour change due to heat dissipation.

- The place where the appliance is installed must be well ventilated.

4. Levelling

• Make sure that the appliance is level with the front feet. If it is not level, performance will be affected.
• After installing the appliance, wait four hours before using it to allow the refrigerant to stabilise.

Preparation

1. Waiting time

Once the appliance is properly installed and cleaned, do not switch it on immediately. Wait at least one hour before starting it up.

2. Cleaning

Check that all accessories are securely in place and wipe the inside with a soft cloth.

3. Connecting the appliance to the mains

Connect the plug into a power socket to switch on the compressor. After 1 hour of operation, open the door. If you notice that the temperature inside the appliance is much colder than the room temperature, it means that the refrigeration system is working normally.

ENGLISH

4. Food storage

- When the appliance has been in operation for a considerable period of time, you can adjust the internal temperature. Once the appliance has cooled down completely, put the food in. It will take 2 to 3 hours for the food to cool down. In summer, when the temperature is high, it may take more than 4 hours for food to cool down completely (try to open the door as rarely as possible).

- If the appliance is installed in a wet place, be sure to check if the earth wire and

the leakage circuit breaker are working normally. If vibration noises occur due to contact of the appliance with the wall or if the wall turns black due to air convection around the compressor, keep the appliance further away from the wall. This appliance may cause interference in mobile phones, landline phones, radio receivers, or televisions near the refrigerator, so in this case, keep the appliance as far away from these objects as possible.

4. OPERATION

Temperature settings. Fig. 12

• The appliance temperature can be adjusted by turning the temperature knob. The temperature knob can be adjusted between levels 1 and 5. The temperature will decrease the higher the number selected.
• The temperature range of the freezer mode is from -15 °C to -24 °C.
• The temperature range of the refrigerator mode is from 0 °C to 10 °C.
• The temperature inside the appliance may vary depending on the room temperature, the number of products stored and how often the door is opened.

5. INSTRUCTIONS ON FOOD STORAGE

Use precautions

• If you select a high temperature for the freezer, the food may defrost.
• Information on the temperature range can be found on the rating plate.
• Temperature may be affected by factors such as location, room temperature and how often the door is opened.
• Do not put carbonated drinks in the freezer.

Food location

• Do not put too much or too heavy food in the appliance.
• Leave enough space between the food; if they are too close together, they will block the flow of cold air, which will affect the cooling effect.
• When storing food, do not stick it to any wall to prevent it from freezing.

Freezer mode

• Storage of food over a long period of time: The freezer mode, whose temperature will normally be below -18 °C, is suitable for storing food over a long period of time. However, bear in mind that you must respect the expiry date indicated on the food packaging.
• Let hot food cool down to room temperature before putting it in the freezer.
• Do not place liquids in glass or canned containers in the freezer; if you do, they may explode.
• Divide food into small portions.
• It is best to package food before freezing. Make sure that the container to be used is dry. Food should be packaged or covered with durable, non-toxic, non-polluting, tasteless, air-and water-tight materials to prevent cross-contamination and odour transfer.

Tips for buying frozen food

1. When buying frozen food, pay attention to the storage instructions on the package.

2. Check the temperature of the freezer of the shop where you buy them.

3. Make sure that the packaging of frozen food is in perfect condition.

4. Always buy frozen products last when shopping.
5. Try to keep frozen foods together while shopping and on the way home, as this will keep them fresher.
6. Do not buy frozen foods unless you can freeze them immediately. Special insulated bags are available in most supermarkets and department stores. In them, frozen food is kept cold for a longer period of time.
7. Some foods do not require defrosting before cooking. Vegetables and pasta can be added directly to boiling water or steamed. Frozen sauces and soups can be placed in a pan and heated gently until thawed.
8. Use quality foods and alter them as little as possible. When food is frozen in small quantities, it takes less time to freeze and thaw.
9. Calculate the amount of food to be frozen. When freezing large quantities of fresh food, set the temperature knob to a lower freezing temperature. This way food can be frozen quickly maintaining its freshness.

Using the ice cube tray

Place the ice cube tray in the top part of the freezer compartment so that it freezes as quickly as possible.

6. CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE

Before cleaning the appliance, disconnect it from the mains. Do not touch the plug with wet hands; doing so may result in electric shock. Avoid spilling water on the appliance, so that it does not rust or cause an accident. Do not reach into the bottom of the appliance, as this may cause damage.

Cleaning the interior and exterior

• Food residues in the appliance can cause unwanted odours, so it should be cleaned regularly, at least once a month.
• Remove the shelf and clean it with a soft cloth or sponge dampened with lukewarm water. You can also use a little neutral detergent.
• Clean the dust that accumulates on the rear panel and side plates of the appliance regularly.
• If you have used detergent, be sure to rinse it off with clean water. Next, dry it with a dry cloth.
• Do not use any abrasive materials or corrosive products to clean the appliance.
• Carefully dry the door gasket and clean the slot with a wooden stick wrapped with cotton. To rellt the gasket after cleaning, first xx the four corners and then push it into the slot a little at a time.

ENGLISH

• Power failure or cooling system fault
• If the appliance stops operating for a prolonged period of time, the food may defrost.
• Try to open the appliance door as little as possible, so that you can keep food in good condition for hours, even in summer.

• If you know that a power cut is going to occur in advance:

• Select the lowest temperature one hour in advance, so that the food is completely frozen/ cooled. Do not introduce new food. Adjust the temperature back to the original setting when power is restored.

• You can also make ice in an airtight container and place it on the top chamber of the appliance to extend the shelf life of fresh food.

Note: it is best not to interrupt the operation of the appliance; this could affect its lifespan.

Defrost

After some time, a thin layer of frost will form on the surface of the inner wall of the appliance (or on the evaporator), which may affect the performance if it is thicker than 5 mm. When this happens, gently scrape off the frost with an ice scraper. It is necessary to remove frost approximately every 3 months. Follow the steps below to remove the frost:

1. Remove the frozen food, disconnect the power supply, open the door, and gently remove the frost from the inside wall with an ice scraper. To speed up the defrosting process, we suggest that you place a container of hot water inside the appliance. When the frost comes off, use a scraper to remove it.

2. After defrosting, clean the inside of the appliance and switch on the power supply.

Safety check after maintenance

- Check that the power cable is not broken or damaged.

- Check that the plug is correctly inserted into the socket.

- Check that the plug does not overheat.

- Check that the power cable is not broken or damaged. - Check that the plug is correctly inserted into the socket. - Check that the plug does not overheat.

Note: if the power cord and plug are damaged or dusty, electric shock and fire may occur. If there is any malfunction, disconnect the power cable and contact the official Cecotec Technical Support Service.

Removing the shelf

Hold one end of the shelf and lift it up while pulling it out.

Interruption of use of the appliance for a long period of time

• If the appliance is not to be used for several months, first switch it off and disconnect the plug from the mains socket.
• Remove all the food.
• Clean and dry the interior completely. To prevent mould or unpleasant odours, leave the

door slightly open: lock it open or remove it if necessary.

• Store the appliance in a ventilated and dry place, away from heat sources; place the appliance carefully and do not place heavy objects on it.
• Keep the appliance out of the reach of children, so that they do not play with it.

Note: when using the refrigerator mode, empty the drip tray inside the appliance after a while. This will prevent overfilling and water overflow.
