AuthorisedService. The lamp(s) used in this appliance is not suitable for
house hold room illumination. The intended purpose ofthis lamp is to assist
the user to place foodstuffs in the refrigerator foodstuffs in the
refrigerator/freezer in a safe and comfortable way. The lamps used in this
appliance have to withstand extreme physical conditions such as temperatures
below -20 °C. (only chest and upright freezer)
4 Preparation
Your cooler/freezer should be installed at least 30 cm away from heat sources
such as hobs, ovens, central heater and stoves and at least5 cm away from
electrical ovens and should not be located under direct sunlight. Please make
sure that the interior of your cooler/freezer is cleaned thoroughly.
If two coolers are to be installed side by side, there should be at least 2 cm
distance between them. When you operate your cooler/freezer for the first
time, please observe the following instructions during the initialsix hours.
Its door should not be opened frequently. It must be operated empty without
placing any food in it. Do not unplug your cooler/freezer. If a power failure
occurs out of your control, please see the warnings in the “Recommended
solutions for the problems” section. The baskets/drawers that are provided
with the chill compartment must always be in use for low energy consumption
and for better storage conditions. Food contact with the temperature sensor in
the freezer compartment may increase energy consumption of appliance. Thus any
contact with the sensor(s) must be avoided. This product has been designed to
function at ambient temperatures up to 43°C (90 SDgr F). Even if theambient
temperature falls to -15 °C, frozen food in the freezer does not thaw thanks
to its Advanced Electronic Temperature Control System. For the first
installation, the product should NOT be placed underlow ambient temperatures.
This is because the freezer cannot go down to standard operation temperature.
When reaching continuous operation, the product can be moved to another place.
Thus, later you can place your product in the garage or
an unheated room without the concern of causing frozen food to get rotten.
However, it is likely that above mentioned low temperatures may cause the
freezing of the food in the fridge compartment; thus, please consume the food
items in the fridge in a controlled way as needed. When ambient temperature
goes back to normal, you may change button setting according to your need.
If the ambient temperature is below 0°C, the food in fridge compartment will
freeze. Therefore, we recommend not using the fridge compartment in such low
ambient temperatures. You may continue to use the freezer compartment as
usual. In some models, the instrument panel automatically turns off 5 minutes
after the door has closed. It will be reactivated when the door has opened or
pressed on any key. Due to temperature change as a result of opening/closing
the product door during operation, condensationon the door/body shelves and
the glass containers is normal.
