PART 4: FOOD STORAGE
4.1 Refrigerator Compartment
· To reduce humidity and avoid the consequent formation of frost, always store liquids in sealed containers in the refrigerator. Frost tends to concentrate in the coldest parts of the evaporating liquid and, in time, your appliance will require more frequent defrosting.
· Cooked dishes must remain covered when they are kept in the fridge. Do not place warm foods in fridge. Place them when they are cool, otherwise the temperature/humidity inside the fridge will increases, reducing the fridge’s efficiency.
· Make sure no items are in direct contact with the rear wall of the appliance as frost will develop and packaging will stick to it. Do not open the refrigerator door frequently.
· We recommend that meat and clean fish are loosely wrapped and stored on the glass shelf just above the vegetable bin where the air is cooler, as this provides the best storage conditions.
· Store loose fruit and vegetable items in the crisper containers. · Storing fruit and vegetables separately helps prevent ethylene-sensitive vegetables (green leaves, broccoli,
carrot, etc.) being affected by ethylene releaser fruits (banana, peach, apricot, fig etc.). · Do not put wet vegetables into the refrigerator. · Storage time for all food products depends on the initial quality of the food and an uninterrupted
refrigeration cycle before refrigerator storage. · Water leaking from meat may contaminate other products in the refrigerator. You should package meat
products and clean any leakages on the shelves. · Do not put food in front of the air flow passage. · Consume packaged foods before the recommended expiry date.
Do not allow food to come into contact with the temperature sensor, which is located in the refrigerator compartment, in order to keep the refrigerator compartment at optimum temperature.
· For normal working conditions, it will be sufficient to adjust the temperature setting of your refrigerator to +4 °C.
· The temperature of the fridge compartment should be in the range of 0-8 °C, fresh foods below 0 °C are iced and rotted, bacterial load increases above 8 °C, and spoils.
· Do not put hot food in the refrigerator immediately, wait for the temperature to pass outside. Hot foods increase the degree of your refrigerator and cause food poisoning and unnecessary spoiling of the food.
· Meat, fish, etc. should be store in the chiller compartment of the food, and the vegetable compartment is preferred for vegetables. (if available)
· To prevent cross contamination, meat products and fruit vegetables are not stored together. · Foods should be placed in the refrigerator in closed containers or covered to prevent moisture and odors.

NOTE: Potatoes, onions and garlic should not be stored in the refrigerator.
4.2 Freezer Compartment
The freezer is used for storing frozen food, freezing fresh food, and making ice cubes. · Food in liquid form should be frozen in plastic cups and other food should be frozen in plastic folios or
bags. For freezing fresh food; wrap and seal fresh food properly, that is the packaging should be air tight and shouldn’t leak. Special freezer bags, aluminium foil polythene bags and plastic containers are ideal. · Do not store fresh food next to frozen food as it can thaw the frozen food. · Before freezing fresh food, divide it into portions that can be consumed in one sitting. · Consume thawed frozen food within a short period of time after defrosting · Always follow the manufacturer’s instructions on food packaging when storing frozen food. If no information is provided food, should not be stored for more than 3 months from the date of purchase. · When purchasing frozen food, make sure that it has been stored under appropriate conditions and that the packaging is not damaged. · Frozen food should be transported in appropriate containers and placed in the freezer as soon as possible. · Do not purchase frozen food if the packaging shows signs of humidity and abnormal swelling. It is probable that it has been stored at an unsuitable temperature and that the contents have deteriorated. · The storage life of frozen food depends on the room temperature, the thermostat setting, how often the door is opened, the type of food, and the length of time required to transport the product from the shop to your home. Always follow the instructions printed on the packaging and never exceed the maximum storage life indicated. · If the freezer door has been left open for a long time or not closed properly, frost will form and can prevent efficient air circulation. To resolve this, unplug the freezer and wait for it to defrost. Clean the freezer once it has fully defrosted.

PART 5: CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
Disconnect the unit from the power supply before cleaning.
Do not wash your appliance by pouring water on it.
Do not use abrasive products, detergents or soaps for cleaning the appliance. After washing, rinse with clean water and dry carefully. When you have finished cleaning, reconnect the plug to the mains supply with dry hands. · Make sure that no water enters the lamp housing and other electrical components. · The appliance should be cleaned regularly using a solution of bicarbonate of soda and lukewarm water. · Clean the accessories separately by hand with soap and water. Do not wash accessories in a dish washer. · Clean the condenser with a brush at least twice a year. This will help you to save on energy costs and increase productivity.

5.1 Defrosting
Defrosting the Refrigerator Compartment

EN – 24
Copyright © 2023, Fast CR, a. s.

Revision 11/2023

· Defrosting occurs automatically in the refrigerator compartment during operation. The water is collected by the evaporation tray and evaporates automatically.
· The evaporation tray and the water drain hole should be cleaned periodically with the defrost drain plug to prevent the water from collecting at the bottom of the refrigerator instead of flowing out.
· You can also clean the drain hole by pouring half a glass of water down it.
Freezer defrosting process · Small amounts of frost will accumulate inside the freezer, depending on the length of time the door may
be left open or the amount of moisture introduced. It is essential to ensure that no frost or ice is allowed to form in places where it will affect the close fitting of the door seal. This might allow air to penetrate the cabinet, encouraging continuous running of the compressor. Thin frost formation is quite soft and can be removed with a brush or plastic scraper. Do not use metal or sharp scrapers, mechanical devices or other means to accelerate the defrosting process. Remove all dislodged frost from the cabinet floor. It is not necessary to switch off the appliance for the removal of thin frost. · For the removal of heavy ice deposits, disconnect the appliance from the mains supply, empty the contents into cardboard boxes and wrap in thick blankets or layers of paper to keep cool. Defrosting will be most effective if carried out when the freezer is nearly empty and should be carried out as quickly as possible to prevent an unnecessary increase in the temperature of the contents. · Do not use metal or sharp scrapers, mechanical devices or other means to accelerate the defrosting process. An increase in temperature of frozen food during defrosting will shorten the storage life. Keep contents well wrapped and cool while defrosting is taking place.

· Dry the inside of the compartment with a sponge or a clean cloth. · To accelerate the defrosting process, place one or more bowls of warm water in the freezer compartment. · Examine the contents when replacing them in the freezer and if some of the packages have thawed out,
they should be eaten within 24 hours, or be cooked and re-frozen. · After defrosting is complete, clean the inside of the appliance with a solution of warm water and a little
bicarbonate of soda, then dry thoroughly. Wash all removable parts in the same way and reassemble.
Reconnect the appliance to the mains supply and leave for 2 to 3 hours on setting number MAX before introducing the food back into the freezer.

PART 7: BEFORE CALLING AFTER-SALES SERVICE
If you are experiencing a problem with your appliance, please check the following before contacting the after-sales service.
Your appliance is not operating Check if: · There is power · The plug is correctly placed in the socket · The plug fuse or the mains fuse has blown · The socket is defective. To check this, plug another working appliance into the same socket.
The appliance performs poorly Check if: · The appliance is overloaded · The appliance door is closed properly · There is any dust on the condenser · There is enough space near the rear and side walls.
Your appliance is operating noisily Normal noises
Cracking noise occurs: · During automatic defrosting · When the appliance is cooled or warmed (due to expansion of appliance material).
Short cracking noise occurs: When the thermostat switches the compressor on/off. Motor noise: Indicates the compressor is operating normally. The compressor may cause more noise for a short time when it is first activated. Bubbling noise and splash occurs: Due to the flow of the refrigerant in the tubes of the system. Water flowing noise occurs: Due to water flowing to the evaporation container. This noise is normal during defrosting. Air blowing noise occurs: In some models during normal operation of the system due to the circulation of air.
The edges of the appliance in contact with the door joint are warm Especially during summer (warm seasons), the surfaces in contact with the door joint may become warmer during the operation of the compressor, this is normal. There is a build-up of humidity inside the appliance Check if: · All food is packed properly. Containers must be dry before being placed in the appliance. · The appliance door is opened frequently.
Humidity of the room enters the appliance when the doors are opened. Humidity increases faster when the doors are opened more frequently, especially if the humidity of the room is high.

EN – 27
Revision 11/2023

The door does not open or close properly Check if: · There is food or packaging preventing the door from closing · The door joints are broken or torn · Your appliance is on a level surface. · The compressor can run loudly or the noise of the compressor/refrigerator may increase in some models
during operating in some conditions such that the product is plugged in for the first time, depending on change in the ambient temperature or change of usage. That is normal; when the refrigerator reaches the required temperature, the noise decreases automatically.
Recommendations · If the appliance is switched off or unplugged, wait at least 5 minutes before plugging the appliance in or
restarting it in order to prevent damage to the compressor. · If you will not use your appliance for a long time (e.g. in summer holidays) unplug it. Clean your appliance
according to chapter cleaning and leave the door open to prevent humidity and smell. · If a problem persists after you have followed all the above instructions, please consult the nearest
authorised service centre. · The appliance you have purchased is designed for domestic use only. It is not suitable for commercial or
common use. If the consumer uses the appliance in a way that does not comply with this, we emphasise that the manufacturer and the dealer will not be responsible for any repair and failure within the guarantee period.
PART 8: 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.
