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 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.

Levelling the refrigerator

To level the refrigerator, adjust the two adjustable feet on the front of the unit. If the unit is not level, the doors and magnetic seal alignments will not close properly.

OPERATION

• The appliance should be installed well away from sources of heat such as radiators, boilers, direct sunlight etc.
• Ensure that air can circulate freely around the back of the cabinet. To ensure best performance, if the appliance is positioned below an overhanging wall unit, the minimum distance between the top of the cabinet and the wall unit must be at least 100 mm. Ideally, however, the appliance should not be positioned below overhanging wall units.
• Accurate leveling is ensured by one or more adjustable feet at the base of the cabinet.

Before first Use
Before using the appliance for the first time, wash the interior and all internal accessories with lukewarm water and some neutral soap so as to remove the typical smell of a brand new product, then dry thoroughly.

Positioning of shelves and door compartments
The refrigerator is equipped with several shelves that can be positioned as required. To enable the storage of food packaging of different sizes, the door compartments can be mounted at different heights. To do this, pull the balcony towards the arrows until it detaches and then position it as required.

Defrosting frozen food
Frozen foods can be thawed in one of the refrigerator compartments or at room temperature before use. Place the frozen food in a tray to catch any condensation that occurs during thawing.

Note: Refrigerators without freezer compartments are not suitable for storing frozen food for a longer period of time.

Refrigerating fresh food

• Do not put warm or steaming foods in the refrigerator.
• Always wrap food or store it in airtight containers. This is especially true for foods with strong odors.
• Make sure air can circulate freely between foods in the refrigerator.
• Wrap any type of meat in plastic wrap and store it on the shelf, directly above the vegetable drawer, for a maximum of 2 days.
• Cooked foods can be placed on any of the shelves.
• Store fresh fruits and vegetables in the vegetable drawer.
• Pack butter and cheese in airtight containers, aluminum foil or plastic wrap.
• Store milk bottles or milk cartons in the door compartment only when closed.
• Do not store bananas, onions, potatoes and garlic in the refrigerator.

CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE

For hygienic reasons, the interior, including the interior fi ttings, should be cleaned regularly.

CAUTION
Danger of injury! Before cleaning, switch off the appliance and unplug the appliance from the power outlet to prevent electric shock.

• Ethereal oils and organic solvents can attack plastic parts, e.g. lemon juice or the juice formorange peel, butyric acid, cleanser that contain acetic acid. Do not allow such substances to come into contact the appliance parts.

• Do not use any abrasive cleaners

• Switch the appliance off and remove the plug from the mains, or switch off or turn out the circuit breaker of fuse.

• Clean the appliance and the interior accessories with a cloth and lukewarm water.
  After cleaning wipe with fresh water and rub dry.

• Accumulation of dust at the condenser increases energy consumption. For this reason carefully clean the condenser at the back of the appliance once a year with a soft brush or a vacuum cleaner.

• After everything is dry place appliance back into service.

Defrosting
The evaporator, however, will become progressively covered with frost. This should be removed. Never use sharp metal tools to scrape off frost from the evaporator as you could damage it. However, when the ice becomes very thick on the evaporator, complete defrosting should be carried out as fellows:

• Pull out the plug from the socket.
• Remove all stored food, wrap it in several layers of newspaper and put it in a cool place.
• Keep the door open, and placing a basin underneath of the appliance to collect the defrost water.
• When defrosting is completed, dry the interior thoroughly.
• Replace the plug in the power socket to run the appliance again.
