Note that the temperature will change depending on the ambient temperature, frequency of door opening and the amount of food in the appliance.

During initial operation, turn the temperature control to the highest setting first, until the appliance has reached the desired operating temperature. Afterwards it is recommended to turn the control back to a medium setting; correcting the temperature at a later point would then be easier.

Interior light Interior light

When opening the appliance door, the interior light will turn on automatically.

Storing foodStoring food

NOTE: NRecemRecolation!mendation!

To guarantee that the temperature is low enough, you should pre-cool the appliance a few times before initial loading foods.

CAUTION:CAUTION:

Always pay attention to the storage instructions on the sales packaging.

..in the fridge..in the fridge

Always store food covered or packed in order to prevent drying-out and transfer of odor or taste onto other food items. You may pack the food with e.g.

• Polyethylene plastic bags or foil

• Special plastic covers with elastic strip

- Plastic bowl with lid

- Aluminum foil

Recommendations:edations

- Store fresh packed items on the glass shelves, fresh fruits and vegetables in the vegetable box.

- Place bottles in the door storage rack.

- By the air circulation different climate zones arises.

- The coldest zone is located at the rear and the lower fridge part. Recommended for the storage of foods such as fish, sausages and meat.

- The warmest zone is located at the door and the upper fridge part. Suitable for the storage of e.g. cheese and butter.

- Let warm food cool down first.

..in the freezer..in the freezer

The freezer allows you to store frozen food at a temperature of -18^ or colder for several months; to produce ice cubes and to freeze fresh food. The temperature of the freezer is automatically controlled by the temperature control in the fridge. Due to external influences such as ambient temperature, site, frequency of door opening and the amount of food, the temperature can affect the appliance.

i NOTE:NOTE:

Make sure that the temperature in the freezer does not rise above -18^ . For this, the unit should be defrosted regularly. A thick frozen layer deteriorates the cooling and increases the power consumption.

Freezing

- 24 hours before freezing we recommend turning the temperature control to the highest power level and to keep this setting even after freezing for a few hours. The appliance is not compromised if the setting will not revert to a normal operating temperature after the freezing process, but for economic reasons you should possibly avoid it.

- Fresh food should be frozen as fast as possible to the core. Therefore during freezing operation, the temperature of fresh food should be lowered as fast as possible in order to keep formation of ice crystals as little as possible and not to damage the food structure.

- Frozen food should be kept in contact with the bottom of the compartment.

- Keep a space between the individual items, so that the cold air can circulate.

Storing frozen foodStoring frozen food

• Packed frozen merchandise should be stored in a 4-star-freezer compartment in accordance with the manufacturer's data. Make sure the food items do not defrost after purchase and to store them as fast as possible in the freezer.
• It is possible to store food for longer periods of time, up to three months. This period might vary, so observe the storage information on the packaging of the merchandise.

General safety precautions General safety precautions

• Do not exceed the maximum freezing capacity. See data under "Technical Data" and on the rating label.
• Do not store bottles or cans. These can break when the contents freeze – or even explode, if they contain carbonated drinks.
• Once products have been defrosted halfway or completely, they should be consumed as soon as possible and should not be frozen again, except they have been processed to a ready meal.
• Do not open the door in case of power failure. If the failure does not take longer than 15 hours, the food will not be affected.
• Do not eat food that is still frozen. Do not eat ice cream directly from the freezer. The cold can cause injuries in the oral cavity.
• Touching metal parts inside the appliance can cause symptoms similar to burns if the skin is very sensitive.
• Never touch frozen food with moist or wet hands.

Cleaning the appliance including interior Cleaning the appliance including interior Reverse the bulb Reverse the bulb

• Clean the appliance interior, the exterior surfaces, the accessories and the door seal regularly with warm water and mild detergent.
• Remove for that the appliance content and storage at a cool location.
• Clean the thaw water discharge channel / opening carefully e.g. with a pipe cleaner.
  • After everything was thoroughly dried, you can restart the operation.

DefrostingDefrosting

The fridge has an automatic defrosting system. During defrosting water drops drains off at the back of the cooling chamber. The thaw water running through a channel, is collected in a drip tray located on the compressor, where it will evaporate. Make sure the water discharge opening does not get clogged. A light formation of ice on the interior back during operation is normal.

To achieve better cooling and to save energy, defrost the freezer regularly as follows:

Lamp specifications: 220L240V940N515W: 220

• Unscrew the screw of the lamp cover.
• Press on the lamp cover and remove it to the back.
• Replace the defective bulb.
• Reattach the lamp cover and tighten the screw.
• Reconnect the appliance and switch on.
