a significant increase of the temperature in the compartments of the appliance. · Clean regularly surfaces that can come in contact with food and accessible drainage systems · Store raw meat and fish in suitable containers in the refrigerator, so that it is not in contact with or drip onto other food. · Two-star frozen-food compartments are suitable for storing pre-frozen food, storing or making ice cream and making ice cubes. · One-, two- and three-star compartments are not suitable for the freezing of fresh food. · If the refrigerating appliance is left empty for long periods, switch off, defrost, clean, dry, and leave the door open to prevent mould developing within the appliance.

Installation warnings
Before using your fridge freezer for the first time, please pay attention to the following points:

• The operating voltage for your fridge freezer is 220-240 V at 50Hz.
• The plug must be accessible after installation.
• Your fridge freezer may have an odour when it is operated for the first time. This is normal and the odour will fade when your fridge freezer starts to cool.
• Before connecting your fridge freezer, ensure that the information on the data plate (voltage and connected load) matches that of the mains electricity supply. If in doubt, consult a qualified electrician.
• Insert the plug into a socket with an efficient ground connection. If the socket has no ground contact or the plug does not match, we recommend you consult a qualified electrician for assistance.
• The appliance must be connected with a properly installed fused socket. The power supply (AC) and voltage at the operating point must match with the details on the name plate of the appliance (the name plate is located on the inside left of the appliance).

• Place your fridge freezer where it will not be exposed to direct sunlight.
• Your fridge freezer must never be used outdoors or exposed to rain.
• Your appliance must be at least 50 cm away from stoves, gas ovens and heater cores, and at least 5 cm away from electrical ovens.
• If your fridge freezer is placed next to a deep freezer, there must be at least 2 cm between them to prevent humidity forming on the outer surface.
• Do not cover the body or top of fridge freezer with lace. This will affect the performance of your fridge freezer.
• Clearance of at least 150 mm is required at the top of your appliance. Do not place anything on top of your appliance.
• Do not place heavy items on the appliance.

  adults. Do not allow children to play with the appliance or hang off the door.

• Never touch the power cord/plug with wet hands. This may cause a short circuit or electric shock.

• Do not place glass bottles or cans in the ice-making compartment as they will burst when the contents freeze.

• Do not place explosive or flammable material in your fridge. Place drinks with high alcohol content vertically in the fridge compartment and make sure their tops are tightly closed.

• When removing ice from the ice-making compartment, do not touch it. Ice may cause frost burns and/or cuts.

• Do not touch frozen goods with wet hands. Do not eat ice-cream or ice cubes immediately after they are removed from the ice-making compartment.

• Do not re-freeze thawed frozen food. This may cause health issues such as food poisoning.
  Old and Out-of-order Fridges

USING THE APPLIANCE

Information about New Generation Cooling Technology
Fridges with new-generation cooling technology have a different operating system to static fridges. Other (static) fridges may experience a build up of ice in the freezer compartment due to door openings and humidity in the food. In such fridges, regular defrosting is required; the fridge must be switched off, the frozen food moved to a suitable container and the ice which has formed in the freezer compartment removed. In fridges with new-generation cooling technology, a fan blows dry cold air evenly throughout the fridge and freezer compartments. The cold air cools your food evenly and uniformly, preventing humidity and ice build-up. In the refrigerator compartment, air blown by the fan, located at the top of the refrigerator compartment, is cooled while passing through the gap behind the air duct. At the same time, the air is blown out through the holes in the air duct, evenly spreading cool air throughout the refrigerator compartment. There is no air passage between the freezer and refrigerator compartments, therefore preventing the mixing of odours. As a result, your fridge, with newgeneration cooling technology, provides you with ease of use as well as a huge volume and aesthetic appearance.

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. Place thawing food in the refrigerator compartment if available. The low temperature of the frozen food will
   help cool the refrigerator compartment while the food is thawing. This will save energy. Frozen food left to thaw outside of the appliance will result in a waste of energy.

4. 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.

5. 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.

6. Keep the covers of the different temperature compartments (such as the crisper and chiller if available) closed.

7. The door gasket must be clean and pliable. In case of wear, replace the gasket.
