Installation; Start-Up And Use - Whirlpool ENBLH 19-VW Serie Mode D'emploi

Installation

! Before placing your new appliance into operation please read these
operating instructions carefully. They contain important information for
safe use, for installation and for care of the appliance.
! Please keep these operating instructions for future reference.
Pass them on to possible new owners of the appliance.
Positioning and connection
Positioning
1. Place the appliance in a well-ventilated humidity-free room.
2. Do not obstruct the rear fan grills. The compressor and
condenser give off heat and require good ventilation to operate
correctly and save energy.
3. Leave a space of at least 10 cm between the top part of the
appliance and any furniture above it, and at least 5 cm between
the sides and any furniture/side walls.
4. Ensure the appliance is away from any sources of heat (direct
sunlight, electric stove, etc.).
5. In order to maintain the correct distance between the appliance
and the wall behind it, fit the spacers supplied in the installation
kit, following the instructions provided.
Levelling
1. Install the appliance on a level and rigid floor.
2. If the floor is not perfectly horizontal, adjust the refrigerator by
tightening or loosening the front feet.
Electrical connections
After the appliance has been transported, carefully place it
vertically and wait at least 3 hours before connecting it to the
electricity mains. Before inserting the plug into the electrical socket
ensure the following:
• The appliance is earthed and the plug is compliant with the law.
• The socket can withstand the maximum power of the appliance,
which is indicated on the data plate located on the bottom left
side of the fridge (e.g. 150 W).
• The voltage must be in the range between the values indicated
on the data plate located on the bottom left side (e.g. 220-
240V).
• The socket is compatible with the plug of the appliance. If
the socket is incompatible with the plug, ask an authorised
technician to replace it (see Assistance). Do not use extension
cords or multiple sockets.
! Once the appliance has been installed, the power supply cable
and the electrical socket must be easily accessible.
! The cable must not be bent or compressed.
! The cable must be checked regularly and replaced by authorised
technicians only (see Assistance).
! The manufacturer declines any liability should these safety
measures not be observed.

Start-up and use

Starting the appliance
! Before starting the appliance, follow the installation
instructions (see Installation).
! Before connecting the appliance, clean the compartments and
accessories well with lukewarm water and bicarbonate.
! The appliance comes with a motor protection control system which
makes the compressor start approximately 8 minutes after being
switched on. The compressor also starts each time the power supply
is cut off whether voluntarily or involuntarily (blackout).
1. Insert the plug into the socket and switch on the product using
the appropriate button, ensure that yellow refrigerator and
freezer temperature lights illuminates
2. After a few hours you will be able to put food in the refrigerator.
3. Press the SUPER FREEZE button (rapid freezing): the SUPER
FREEZE indicator light will illuminate. Once the refrigerator has
reached the optimal temperature, the indicator light goes out
and you can begin food storage.
Using the refrigerator to its full potential
• Use the REFRIGERATOR OPERATION button to adjust the
temperature (see Description).
• Press the SPEED COOL button (rapid cooling) to lower
the temperature quickly. For example, when you place a
large number of new food items inside a fridge the internal
temperature will rise slightly. The function quickly cools the
groceries by temporarily reducing the temperature until it
reaches the ideal level.
• Place only cold or lukewarm foods in the compartment, not hot
foods (see Precautions and tips).
• Remember that cooked foods do not last longer than raw foods.
• Do not store liquids in open containers. They will increase
humidity in the refrigerator and cause condensation to form.
SHELVES: Due to the special guides the shelves are removable
and the height is adjustable, allowing easy storage of large
containers and food.

FRUIT and VEGETABLE bin
The salad crispers fitted inside the fridge have been specially
designed for the purpose of keeping fruit and vegetables fresh and
crisp. Open the humidity regulator (position B) if you want to store
food in a less humid environment like fruit, or close it (position A)
to store food in a more humid environment like vegetable.

TEMPERATURE Indicator light
the refrigerator.
1. Check that OK appears clearly on the indicator light (see
diagram).
2. If the word "OK" does not appear it means that the temperature
is too high: set a lower temperature and wait approximately 10
hours until the temperature has been stabilised.
3. Check the indicator light again: if necessary, readjust it following
the initial process. If large quantities of food have been added
or if the refrigerator door has been opened frequently, it is
normal for the indicator not to show OK. Wait at least 10 hours
before adjusting the REFRIGERATOR OPERATION knob to a
higher setting.
