BEFORE USE
- This appliance is packaged in a way as to protect it during transport. Take the appliance out of its box and remove all packaging materials. You can keep the original box and other packaging elements in a safe place. This will help you prevent product damage when transporting it in the future. In case the original packaging is disposed of, make sure all packaging materials are recycled accordingly.
- Make sure all parts and components are included and in good conditions. If there is any piece missing or in bad conditions, contact the official Cecotec Technical Support Service immediately.
Levelling
- Make sure you level your refrigerator with the front levelling feet. If it is not levelled, the refrigerator performance will be affected, or it can even cause a malfunction.
- After installing the refrigerator, wait 4 hours before using it to allow the refrigerant to stabilise.
INSTALLATION
Place of installation Ventilation condition
- The location you choose for the installation of the refrigerator must be properly ventilated and away from heat sources. Do not place the refrigerator near heat sources, like a cooker or pot, and avoid direct sunlight to ensure the cooling effect and save on energy consumption. Do not place the refrigerator in a damp place, to avoid rust or loss of power. The result of dividing the total space of the room in which the refrigerator is installed by the amount of refrigerant load in the refrigerator must not be less than 8 g/m³.
- Note: The amount of refrigerant used by the refrigerator is specified on the rating plate.
Heat dissipation space
During operation, the refrigerator releases heat into the environment.
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 refrigerator.

595 | 635 | 1855 | 966 | 1202 | 130 | 50 | 100 |
Note: figure 2 only illustrates the space required for the product.
Stable surface
Place the refrigerator on a solid, flat surface (the floor) to keep it stable,
otherwise vibrations and noises will occur. When the refrigerator is placed on
a carpet, straw mat, polyvinyl chloride, solid support plates should be placed
under the refrigerator to avoid colour change due to heat dissipation.
Preparing for use
-
Waiting time
Once the refrigerator is properly installed and cleaned, do not switch it on immediately. Be sure to wait at least one hour before switching it on to ensure normal operation. -
Cleaning
Check the placement of the interior accessory parts and clean the inside with a soft cloth. -
On
Connect the plug into a power socket to switch on the compressor. After one hour, open the freezer door: if the temperature inside the freezer compartment has clearly dropped, the cooling system is operating normally.
Food storage
After the refrigerator has been in operation for some time, the user may
adjust its internal temperature. Once the refrigerator has reached a suitable
interior temperature, put in the food. These will take 2 to 3 hours to cool
down completely. In summer, when the temperature is high, it may take more
than 4 hours for food to cool down completely (try to open the refrigerator
door as rarely as possible).
If the refrigerator is installed in a wet place, be sure to check if the earthed cord and the leakage breaker are working normally. If vibration noises occur due to contact of the refrigerator with the wall or if the wall turns black due to air convection around the compressor, remove the refrigerator from the wall. The installation of the refrigerator may cause noise interference or image problems in mobile phones, landline phones, radio receivers, or televisions near the device, so in this case, keep the refrigerator as far away from these objects as possible.
Changing the opening direction of the door
If desired, you can change the direction in which the door opens, from the
right side (by default) to the left side.
Warning
- The refrigerator must not be connected to the power socket when you change the opening direction of the door. Make sure to disconnect the plug from the power socket.

INSTRUCTIONS ON FOOD STORAGE
Use precautions
- The refrigerator may not operate consistently (there may be some defrosting of the contents, or the temperature may become too hot in the freezer compartment) if placed in locations with a temperature out of the temperature range for which they are designed for a long period of time.
- The internal temperature may be affected by factors such as the location of the refrigerator, room temperature, and door opening frequency, etc., and you should take these factors into account if you decide to use any temperature-control devices.
- Effervescent or carbonated drinks should not be stored in the freezer compartment or drawer of the refrigerator.
Food location
- Due to the circulation of cold air in the refrigerator, the temperature in each zone is different, so food must be placed in different zones.
- The refrigerator compartment is suitable to store food that does not need to be frozen, cooked food, beer, eggs, some seasonings that need to be kept cold, milk, fruit juice, etc. The crisper drawer is the best place to store fruit and vegetables.
- The freezer compartment is suitable to store ice cream, frozen foods, and foods that need to be kept for a long time.
Using the refrigerator compartment (Crisper Box/Humidity Box)
- Shelves: To remove the shelves, first lift them up and then pull them out; to put them back, put them into their position before lowering them. (For the two-section shelf, push the first section towards the rear end and pull the second section out). Keep the rear edge of the shelf facing upwards, to prevent food from coming into contact with the wall. When removing and fitting shelves, hold them firmly and handle them carefully to avoid damage.
- Crisper drawer: Pull out the crisper drawer to access the food. After using or cleaning the bottom shelf of the refrigerator (the drawer cover), put it back in place so that the internal temperature of the drawer is not affected.
Humidity control of the drawer
- The humidity regulator of the drawer is designed to preserve the humidity and freshness of the vegetables.
- If you slide the humidity regulator to the right, more gaps will be exposed, and the drawer will have a lower humidity level.
- If you slide the humidity regulator to the left, less gaps will be exposed, and the drawer will have a higher humidity level.
Using the ice cube tray
Place the ice cube tray in the upper part of the freezer compartment so that
it freezes as quickly as possible.
Care for food storage
- Clean and dry food completely before storing it in the refrigerator. Before introducing food in the refrigerator, it is advisable to seal it to prevent water evaporation and thus keep fruit and vegetables fresh on the one hand, and to prevent odours on the other.
- 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. Do not store too much or too heavy food to prevent the shelves from bending. When storing food, leave a distance from the interior wall; do not place water-rich food too close to the inner wall of the refrigerator to prevent it from freezing on the interior wall.
- Food storage by category: place daily food items at the front of the shelf so that you can reduce the door opening time and avoid food spoilage due to shelf life.
- Energy saving tips: let hot food cool down to room temperature before introducing it in the refrigerator. Place frozen food in the refrigerator compartment to defrost it.
Storage of fruits and vegetables
Please note that some types of fresh vegetables and fruits are sensitive to
cold and therefore not suitable for storage in the refrigerator crisper
drawer.
Use of the freezer compartment
- The temperature of the freezer compartment is kept at -18ºC, so it is advisable to store food that you wish to keep for a long period of time in the freezer compartment, always respecting the storage time indicated on the food packaging.
- The freezer-compartment drawers are suitable to store food which needs to be frozen. Large fish and meat should be cut into small pieces and placed in freezer bags before placing them in the freezer-compartment drawers.
- Let hot food cool down to room temperature before introducing it in the freezer compartment.
- Do not place a glass container with liquid or sealed canned liquid in the freezer compartment to prevent them from exploding due to volume expansion after freezing the liquid.
- Divide food into small portions.
- Food should be packed or covered with suitable materials that are firm, tasteless, impermeable to air and water, non-toxic, and non-polluting to avoid cross-contamination and odour transfer.
Tips on the water dispenser (only for model 02424_Bolero CoolMarket Combi
322 WD Inox D)
The refrigerator model 02424_Bolero CoolMarket Combi 322 WD Inox D is designed
with a water dispenser, which allows you to fill the water glass and enjoy
cold water almost immediately. The water dispenser includes a 2.5-litre
(approx.) water tank to be refilled.
To use the water dispenser, follow the instructions below:
- Open the refrigerator door and make sure the water dispenser is properly fixed.
- Open the water-tank cover and fill the tank slowly to avoid spillage until full. Then, close the water-tank cover. See Figure 25.
- Once the water tank is full, set the thermostat to the lowest temperature or Fast Cool mode–after a while, you will be able to dispense cold water for drinking. See Figure 25.
- When using the water dispenser, some water may drip and collect at the bottom of the dispenser. Clean it with a cloth if necessary.
- Water must not exceed the max. level line on the tank and be kept below the tank cover.
NOTA:
Do not remove the glass during the dispensing of water.
IMPORTANT:
Depending on external climatic conditions, the cooling rate of the water can
vary greatly–in summer, the water will take longer to reach the selected
temperature than in winter.
