The control unit of the appliance is located on the inside. Check that the thermostat is in position OFF. Check that the voltage
corresponds with what is stated on the information plate and insert the plug in the socket.
Adjusting the temperature
By means of the thermostat you are able to turn the appliance on and change the temperature in the refrigerator.
The possible positions of the thermostat:
Position OFF - no cooling, power on
Position COOL - highest temperature, least cold
Position NORMAL - optimum temperature
Position COOLER - lowest temperature, coldest
Set the temperature with the thermostat and select a position between COOL and COOLER. We recommend setting the
appliance to position NORMAL. The appliance will now cool continuously until the set temperature has been reached. Allow
the appliance to reach the required temperature with no food. Usually this will take 2 to 3 hours. After that, you can set the
thermostat to the required position and fill the appliance with food.
To switch the appliance off, set the thermostat to position OFF and unplug the appliance.
Attention:
The ambient temperature, the frequency of opening the door and the position of the appliance have an effect
on the temperature in the appliance. Take this into account when setting the thermostat.
• Do not place hot food in the appliance.
• You should never place hazardous, highly flammable or explosive substances such as alcohol, acetone or petrol
in the appliance, because there will be a hazard of explosion.
• Carefully package meat and fish to prevent unpleasant smells.
• Do not place food items in contact with the cold wall at the back of the appliance.
• Leave sufficient space between the different foods, to allow the air to circulate properly.
• Do not leave the door open for longer than necessary.
• High ambient temperatures have a negative effect on energy use. Keep the appliance in a position away from direct sunlight
or other sources of heat.
• Keep ventilation openings free. Clogged openings lead to higher use of energy.
• Try not to open the door too often, especially when the weather is wet and hot. Once you open the door, mind to close it as
soon as possible.
• Turn the thermostat to a lower setting when the circumstances allow it.
• Before storing fresh cooked food, make sure the food has cooled at least to room temperature.
• Ice and frost layer increase energy consumption, so clean the appliance as soon as the layer is 3 to 5 mm thick.
• 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.
• Always consider the instructions, otherwise the energyconsumption is substantially higher.
To avoid contamination of food, please respect the following instructions
- Opening the door for long periods can cause a significatn increase of the temperature in the compartments of the appliance.
- Clean regularly surfaces that can come in contact with food and accessible drainage systems.
- Store raw meat and fish in suitable containers in the refrigerator, so that it is not in contact with or drip onto other food.
- Two-star frozen-food compartments are suitable for storing pre-frozen food, storing or making icecream and making ice
cubes.
- One-, two- and three-start compartments are not suitable for the freezing of fresh food.
