Instructions for Use Refrigerator Thank you for your trust and for buying this appliance. We hope it will successfully serve the purpose for many years. Refrigerator is for domestic use only and is intended for storing fresh foods at the temperature higher than 0°C.
Before Putting Into Use • Before connecting the appliance to the mains supply, leave it stand for about 2 hours, which will reduce a possibility of malfunctions in the cooling system due to transport handling. • Clean the appliance, and be thorough, especially in the interior (See Cleaning and Maintenance). • In case the interior accessories are not correctly placed, rearrange them as described in chapter "Description of the Appliance".
• If the gasket is damaged or if it turns out that the sealing is poor, the energy consumption is substantially higher. To restore efficiency, replace the gasket. • The condenser on the rear wall should be always clean, free of dust or any impurities. • Always consider instructions stated in sections Positioning and Energy Saving Tips, otherwise the energy consumption is substantially higher.
Placing and Installation Choosing the Right Place Place the appliance in a dry and regularly ventilated room. Allowed ambient temperature depends on the model (class) of the appliance and is stated on the rating plate of the appliance. Class SN (sub-normal) N (normal) ST (sub-tropical) T (tropical) Ambient temparature from + 10°C to + 32°C from + 16°C to + 32°C from + 18°C to + 38°C from + 18°C to + 43°C Never place the appliance near heat emitting devices (e.g.
Description of the Appliance Shelf (1) (the number of shelves depend on model) Shelf can be optionally placed on the guides inside the appliance. It is protected against pulling out. If you want to remove it, slightly lift up the back part and pull it out. Glass shelves (some models only have them) are protected with plastic spacers. Before pulling the shelf out, spacers must be moved towards you. Spacers can be also removed, however, it is better to keep them for any later transport.
Defrost Water Outlet (2) The interior of the refrigerator is cooled with cooling plate incorporated in the rear wall. Under the plate there is a channel and an outlet for defrost water. Regularly check the defrost water outlet and the channel, because they should never be clogged (as for example with food rests). If clogged, use a plastic straw and clean it. Fruit and Vegetable Container (3) The container is on the bottom of the appliance under the glass shelf.
Operation Control The appliance is controlled with thermostat knob, situated in the right upper part inside the appliance. Turn the knob from STOP (0) position towards 7 and backwards. Temperature Selection • Higher settings on the knob (towards 7) mean lower temperatures (colder) in all three compartments of the appliance. Temperature in the interior of the appliance may even drop below 0°C. Higher settings should be used only in case higher temperature is recommended or required.
Use Storing Fresh Foods Proper use of the appliance, adequately packed food, correct temperature and taking into account hygienic precautions will substantially influence the quality of the food stored. • Foods to be stored in the refrigerator should be properly packed as to prevent mixing various moisture degrees and odors (in polyethylene bags or sheet, aluminium foil, wax paper, or stored in covered containers or bottles).

Maintenance and Cleaning Automatic Defrosting of the Refrigerator There is no need to defrost the refrigerator, because ice depositing on the inner back wall is defrosted automatically. Ice is depositing on the inner back wall during the compressor operation; later on, when the compressor is not operating ice is defrosting and water drops collect and drain through the outlet in the inner back wall into the drain pan situated above the compressor, from where it evaporates.
Trouble-Shooting Guide During the service, you can come across some troubles that in most cases result from improper handling of the appliance and can easy be eliminated. The Appliance Fails to Operate After Connecting to the Mains Supply • Check the supply in the outlet socket and make sure the appliance is switched on (thermostat knob in operating position). Continuous Operation of the Cooling System • The door was frequently opened or it was left opened for too long.
Noise Cooling in refrigerating-freezing appliances is enabled by the cooling system with compressor, which produces noise. How noisy the appliance is depends on where it is placed, how it is used and how old the appliance is. • During the operation of the compressor the noise of liquid is heard and when the compressor is not operating, the refrigerant flow is heard. This is a normal condition and it has no influence whatsoever on the lifetime of the appliance.
Mounting Instructions Integrated Refrigerating and Freezing Appliances Mounting instructions for refrigerating and freezing appliances are for qualified technicians only. Appliance should be mounted and installed in compliance with these instructions, current standards and regulations. Mounting instructions were prepared for various types/models of appliances, therefore they may describe some procedures that do not apply to your appliance.
Mounting Dimensions and Required Air Circulation The rear wall of the appliance is getting warm during the operation of the appliance (and water is evaporating from the drain pan on the compressor). You must therefore provide for adequate air circulation on the rear of the appliance. • At the base of the kitchen unit intended for building in the integrated appliance, there should be at least 200 cm² free space, for adequate air circulation.
Changing the Direction of Opening the Door If you find the direction of opening the door on your appliance inconvenient, you can change it. Holes on the opposite side have already been prepared in the factory and are now plugged. • Remove the cover of the upper hinge, unscrew the hinge and take off the door (the door is not fixed on the lower hinge). • Unscrew the upper rail, replace it to the opposite side of the appliance and fix it.

Mounting the Appliance • Push the appliance for some 38 mm into the kitchen unit and allow at least 4 mm free space on both sides between the appliance and the side walls of the kitchen unit (Fig. 1). • Widely open the door and put it together with the kitchen unit door. The procedure is as follows. − Fix the slide guides (attached in a plastic bag along with the screws ST 4,2 x 9,5) to the edge of the door. Cover the open holes with the attached cap.
