To avoid contamination of food, please respect the following instructions:

• Opening the door for long periods can cause significant increase of the temperature in the compartments of the appliance.
• Clean regularly surfaces that 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.

NOTE:
Please store different foods according to the compartments or target storage temperature of your purchased products..
• If the refrigerating appliance is left empty for long periods, switch off. Defrost, clean and dry it and leave the door open to prevent mould developing within the appliance.
Water dispenser cleaning (special for water dispenser products):
• Clean water tanks if they have not been used for 48 h; flush the water system connected to a water supply if water has not been drawn for 5 days.

• Food needs to be packed in bags and liquids in bottles or capped containers before putting into the refrigerator to avoid the problem that the inside of the appliance is not easy to clean.

ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION
The appliance is energy-efficient. Save even more energy when using the appliance with the following tips, and how to dispose of your appliance in an environmentally-friendly way.

Saving energy

• A high ambient temperature will have a negative effect on the energy consumption. Direct sunlight and other heat sources near the appliance also have a negative effect.
• Keep ventilation holes free. Covered and dirty holes cause a high energy consumption. Ensure sufficient space around the refrigerator, so that a proper ventilation and air flow around the appliance is possible.
• Do not open the doors of the appliance more often than necessary and leave the doors open as briefly as possible.
• The distance between the shelves and the rear wall ensurs a free air circulation. Do not place food against the rear wall.
• Set the thermostat to a lower setting if circumstances allow.
• Allow cooked food that you want to store in the appliance to cool down to room temperature before placing it in the appliance.
• A door rubber that does not close properly could increase the energy consumption. Therefore, have it replaced by a qualified person in time.
• If the instructions are not observed, this could lead to a higher energy consumption.

Environmentally-friendly disposal

Recycling – WEEE

• Dispose of packaging in an environmentally-friendly manner.
• This appliance is labelled in accordance with European Directive 2012/19/EU concerning used electrical and electronic appliances (waste electrical and electronic equipment – WEEE).

• Set the thermostat to a lower setting if circumstances allow.
• Allow cooked food that you want to store in the appliance to cool down to room temperature before placing it in the appliance.
• Frost or ice will increase power consumption. Therefore, these should be removed regularly once they are 3 to 5 mm thick.
• A door rubber that does not close properly could increase the power consumption. Therefore, have it replaced by a skilled person in time.
• If the instructions are not observed, this could lead to a higher power consumption.

6 cleaning and maintenance

Before cleaning the appliance, switch it off by removing the plug from the wall socket.

Remove the food from the appliance. Clean the interior of the appliance. Use warm soapy water with a neutral cleaning agent to prevent nasty smells. Wipe the inside of the appliance after cleaning with clean water and properly wipe everything
dry. Leave the appliance to dry for 1 to 2 hours. The shelves and drawers can be removed from the appliance easily and washed by hand. These components may never be cleaned in the dishwasher.

For areas in the appliance that are difficult to clean, such as small openings or corners, it is recommended wiping them clean regularly with a soft cloth or brush. If necessary, a tool can be used, such as thin sticks (cocktail sticks, for example), to make sure no contamination can occur in these areas.

Clean the outside of the appliance and the door rubbers with a soft damp cloth.
Clean the back of the appliance and the surface on which it stands at least once a year with a vacuum cleaner, so that the ventilation holes remain clean and the appliance is able to function as well and energy efficient as possible.

Do not use hard brushes, steel wool, abrasives (such as toothpaste), organic solvents (such as alcohol, acetone, oil, etc.), boiling water, acid or alkaline product to clean the appliance, as this could damage the surface and/or interior of the appliance. Boiling water and benzene could deform or damage plastic components.

Defrosting

Both the cooler and freezer section are free from frost – no-frost. If used correctly, no ice will be formed.

If an ice layer is created after all, defrost the appliance when the ice layer has reached a 3 mm thickness. Remove all products from the freezer section. Store the frozen products on a cool location, packaged in newspapers and blankets.

Remove the plug from the socket and keep the door of the cooler section closed while defrosting the freezer section.
Defrost the freezer section Defrosting can be accelerated by placing a tray with hot water in the freezer section. Do not use sharp metal objects to scrape the freezer section clean, use a plastic ice scraper.
Clean and dry the freezer section. Insert the plug in the socket and set the thermostat to the required setting. Place the frozen products back in the freezer section once it has reached the required temperature.
Warning: Never remove ice with sharp objects, defrosting sprays, a hair dryer, a heater or something similar.
This could lead to unsafe situations and cause irreparable damage to the appliance.

Replacing the LED lamp

This appliance has been provided with a LED lamp. This lamp lasts for a longer period of time. When the
LED lamp in the appliance is broken, you are not able to replace it yourself. Contact the Inventum service department.

7 Resolving failures yourself

During normal use of the cooling appliance, different types of noises can occur that do not have any effect on the correct operation of the larder.
Noises that can be heard during normal use of the appliance are caused by the operation of the thermostat, compressor (activation), cooling system (shrinkage and expansion of the material under the influence of temperature differences and flow of cooling liquid).
