INSTALLATION

INSTALLING THE APPLIANCE
Before installing the appliance, carefully review the safety information (chapter 1).

  1. Unpack
    Remove the packaging materials and dispose of them properly. Check that the appliance is not damaged. Do not connect the appliance if it is damaged. Report any damage immediately to the salesperson via customer service. In that case, keep the packaging.

  2. Location

    • The location where you place your appliance should be well ventilated.
    • Always move the appliance with two people. Use two hands when moving, lifting or turning the appliance.
    • Do not place the appliance near a heat source, such as a stove or boiler, and avoid direct sunlight, so as to guarantee the cooling effect and save on energy consumption.
    • Do not place the appliance in a damp place so that it cannot rust and there is no leakage current.
    • Do not use the appliance outdoors. This appliance is only intended for use indoors.
  3. Installation of the appliance

    • This appliance is not intended for use as a built-in appliance.
    • Use only the original accessories provided for the installation.
    • To reverse the direction in which the door opens, go to section 3.2.
    • During operation, the appliance emits heat to the environment. Therefore there must be at least 5 cm clearance on the top, at least 10 cm on both sides and at least 5 cm on the back of the appliance (see also section 2.1).
    • Use the front adjusting legs to level the appliance. If the appliance is not level, it is possible that the door may not close properly, reducing the cooling performance of the appliance. If the appliance is not level, this can also lead to malfunctions.
    • Make sure that the power cable is not stuck or damaged during installation or positioning the appliance.
    • It must be possible to disconnect the appliance from the mains power supply. The plug must therefore be easily accessible after installation.
    • Always place the appliance on a moisture-resistant and dry surface.
    • Place the appliance on a firm and flat surface (floor) so that it is stable, otherwise vibrations and noise may occur. When placing the appliance on floor coverings such as carpets, straw mats or polyvinyl chloride (PVC), place a solid sheet or cover under the appliance to prevent colour change due to heat dissipation.
  4. Clean
    Before putting the appliance into use, clean the interior and all associated accessories with lukewarm water and neutral soap. Dry everything carefully. Do not use solvents or abrasive powders; these may damage the coating.

  5. Wait
    On first installation (or after turning the door) wait at least four hours before plugging in the appliance. This allows the oil to flow back into the compressor.

  6. Switch on
    Before plugging in the power cable, check that the voltage and frequency of the type plate match your power supply network. Only connect the appliance to an earthed power socket. After one hour, open the door of the appliance. If the temperature in the appliance is noticeably lower, this indicates that the cooling system is operating normally.

  7. Mounting accessories

    • Adjustable shelves
      The walls of the appliance are equipped with a series of guide profiles so that the shelves can be inserted if desired.

    • Fitting of accessories
      To place the glass shelves in the appliance, tilt the shelf about 60 degrees and slide it into the guide (see drawing).

    • Installing the door compartments
      To store food of different sizes, the door compartments can be set to different heights. Proceed as follows: gradually pull the compartment in the direction of the arrows until it comes loose and put it in the desired position.

  8. Storing food
    See Section 4 “Use”.

DAILY USE
Compartments

• Due to the circulation of cold air in the appliance, the temperature in each part of the appliance is different. Therefore, different types of food should be placed in different places.
• Do not place the food close together as this hinders air circulation. Divide food into several compartments according to the table below:

REFRIGERATOR COMPARTMENTS TYPE OF FOOD
Door compartments in the refrigerator compartment Food with natural

preservatives such as jam, juice, drink, spices. Do not store any products with a limited shelf life here.
Crisper drawer| Place fruit, herbs and vegetables separately in the crisper drawer. Do not put bananas, onions, potatoes or garlic in the refrigerator.
Refrigerator shelf – centre| Dairy products, eggs.
Refrigerator shelf – top| Food that does not require preparation such as ready meals, fine meats, leftovers.

Freezer drawer(s)/shelf

| Food for long storage.

Bottom drawer for raw meat, poultry, fish. Middle drawer for frozen vegetables, fries.

Top drawer for ice cream, frozen fruit, deep frozen pastries.

Cooling food

  • Always refer to the expiry date of the products to know how long they can be stored.
  • Pack food in resealable plastic bags, especially if it has a strong taste, and place on the glass shelves above the crisper drawer. Store food only one or at most two days in this way.
  • Store raw meat and fish in appropriate food containers in the refrigerator so that it does not leak or come into contact with other foods.
  • Do not place hot food or hot plastic parts in the appliance. Make sure it has cooled to room temperature before putting it in the appliance.
  • Cooked food that has cooled sufficiently must be covered and can then be placed on any shelf.
  • Do not place foods containing a lot of water too close to the back wall of the refrigerator to prevent them from freezing to the inner wall.
  • It is best to clean and dry food before storing it in the appliance. It is advisable to store food in sealed packaging in the appliance. This prevents evaporation of water, which keeps fruit and vegetables fresh and also prevents odours.

Freezing food

  • The freezer compartment is suitable for freezing fresh food and storing frozen food for a long time.
  • The maximum amount of food that can be frozen in 24 hours is for this refrigerator: 7,5 kg.
  • The freezing process takes 24 hours. Do not add any other food to freeze during this period.
  • Only freeze fresh and thoroughly cleaned foods.
  • Prepare the food in small portions so that it is quickly frozen completely and can then be thawed in the desired amount.
  • Pack the food in aluminium foil or freezer bags and make sure the packets are airtight.
  • Do not allow fresh, non-frozen food to come into contact with food that has already been frozen, and prevent the temperature of the food that has already been frozen from rising.
  • Lean foods are better and more durable than fatty foods; salt shortens the shelf life of food.
  • Ice lollies, if eaten directly from the freezer, can cause frostbite.
  • It is advisable to indicate the freezing date on each individual package in order to keep track of the shelf life.
  • It is advisable to keep the time between buying the food and putting it in the freezer as short as possible.

Storing frozen food
On first use or after a long period of downtime. Run the appliance for at least two hours at the higher positions before putting products in the freezer compartment.

Tips for buying frozen goods

  • When you buy frozen products, read the storage guidelines on the packaging. You can store any frozen product for the period indicated by the star rating. This usually corresponds to the period stated as “best before” on the front of the package.
  • Ensure that frozen food packaging is in perfect condition.
  • Always buy frozen products at the end of your shopping trip or visit to the supermarket.
  • Try to keep frozen food together while shopping and on the way home as this helps to keep food cooler.
  • Only buy frozen food if you can freeze it immediately. In most shops, you can buy special insulating bags. These keep frozen food cold for longer.
  • Use good quality food and handle it as little as possible. When food is frozen in small quantities, it takes less time to freeze or thaw it.
  • Estimate the amount of food to be frozen. When freezing large quantities of fresh food, set the temperature control knob to low mode, this sets the freezer temperature lower. This allows you to freeze the food quickly, keeping it fresh.

Saving energie

  • The most efficient use of energy is ensured in the configuration with the drawers in the lower part of the appliance and with the shelves evenly distributed. The position of the door trays does not affect energy consumption.

  • Do not open the door or leave it open more often than necessary.

  • Do not set the temperature too high to save energy unless the characteristics of the food require it.

  • If the ambient temperature is high, the temperature control is set to a low temperature and the appliance is
    fully filled, the compressor can be on continuously, causing ice to form on the evaporator. In this case, set the temperature control to a higher temperature to defrost the evaporator and thus save energy.

  • Ensure proper ventilation. Do not cover the vents or holes.

  • Place frozen food in the fresh food compartment to defrost: the low temperature of the frozen food helps to cool the fresh food and thus saves energy.

  • Replace the door gasket in good time to prevent poor door closing.

MAINTENANCE AND CLEANING

Before cleaning the appliance, carefully review the safety information (Section 1).

  • Always remove the plug from the earthed socket before cleaning the appliance.
  • Cleaning and user maintenance must not be carried out by children without supervision.
  • Never touch the plug with wet or moist hands because of the risk of electric shocks and injury.
  • Do not remove objects from the freezer compartment if your hands are wet/damp as this may cause grazes or frostbite.
  • Do not put your hands unprotected in the bottom of the appliance as the sharp metal corners can cause scratches.
  • Do not use mechanical devices, electrical appliances (such as a hairdryer or heater) or other means to defrost your appliance.
  • Do not use the appliance if any of its components are damaged or faulty. Replace a damaged or faulty appliance immediately. Remove the plug from the earthed socket and contact customer service.
