∙ On main cabinet shelves (from top to bottom): bakery
items, ready meals, dairy products, meat, fi sh and cold
meats/sausages.
∙ In the vegetable compartment: vegetables, salad and fruit.
∙ In the door (from top to bottom): butter, cheese, eggs,
tubes (eg mustard), small bottles, large bottles, milk and
fruit-juice tetra-packs.
∙ Initially, the temperature control should be set to position 4.
If the cooling effect is too strong, lower it to position 1-3; if it
is insuffi cient, raise it to 5-7.
∙ If you notice frost on the rear wall, the most likely cause
is that the door has been left open for too long, or that
warm food has been placed inside the refrigerator or
that the temperature control has been set too high.
∙ Liquid or strong-smelling food, or food which is likely to
absorb strong odours (e.g. cheese, fi sh, butter), should be
stored separately or in hermetically sealed containers.
∙ Warm food should be left to cool down to room
temperature before being placed in the refrigerator.
∙ Always ensure that the door is properly closed and that the
seal is not obstructed by food stored inside the cabinet or
door.
Cleaning and de-frosting
∙ Always remove the plug from the wall socket before
cleaning.
∙ Do not pour water over or inside the unit.
∙ For frequent cleaning we recommend the use of warm water
with some mild detergent. To prevent any unpleasant odour
within the refrigerator, it should be cleaned about once a
month.
∙ Any accessories should be cleaned separately with soapy
water. Do not put them in a dishwasher.
∙ Do not use abrasives or harsh cleaning solutions or any
cleaning agents that contain alcohol.
∙ After cleaning, thoroughly clean all surfaces with fresh water
before wiping them completely dry. When re-inserting the
plug into the wall socket ensure that you have dry hands.
∙ To save energy and to ensure optimum performance, the
compressor (at the rear) should be carefully cleaned at least
twice a year, with a brush or a vacuum cleaner.
∙ Take care not to remove or damage the rating plate inside
the cabinet during cleaning.

Defrosting the refrigerator cabinet:
The integral vapouriser is sealed in foam in the rear wall; you
may therefore notice a build-up of frost around the rear area.
This layer of frost will start melting when the compressor is not
working. Through a system of hoses, the melt-water drains
into the collection tray below the compressor, where it will be
absorbed into the surrounding air. The unit does not therefore
require de-frosting, but only proper cleaning instead.
To ensure proper drainage of the melt-water, keep the drain
channel and discharge opening in the cabinet free from any
obstruction or blockage. A suitable pointed object can be used
for clearing or removing a blockage.
Energy saving tips
∙ The appliance should be set up in a well-ventilated, dry
room.
∙ Do not expose the appliance to direct sunlight, and do not
position it next to any heat sources (radiators, cookers etc).
If this cannot be avoided, however, suitable insulation must be
installed between the heat source and the unit.
∙ Do not cover the ventilation openings and grilles, and ensure
suffi cient air circulation behind the unit.
∙ The compressor (at the rear) should be cleaned at regular
intervals. Accumulated dust causes an increase in energy
consumption.
∙ Warm food should be allowed to cool down before it is
stored inside.
∙ Do not leave the fridge door open for too long when loading
or taking out food.
∙ Do not set a lower-than-necessary temperature. For detailed
information on the temperature settings, please refer to the
section Temperature control.
Trouble-shooting
Certain typical sounds can be heard when the appliance is
switched on. These sounds are:
∙ caused by the
electrical motor within
the compressor
assembly; during
compressor start-up
the sound level will be
slightly higher for a
limited period of time.
∙ caused by the cooling agent fl owing through the circuit.
The following table lists possible malfunctions and their
probable causes and solutions. In the event of operational
proble ms, check fi rst whether a solution can be found using this
table. If the problem persists, disconnect the appliance from the
mains power and contact our Customer Service Department.
