How to use the fresh food compart-
ment
For adequate cooling developing interior air cir-
culation is necessary. For this reason you are
asked not to cover the whole surface of the wire
shelves with paper, trays, etc.
Do not put hot food into the refrigerator.
Allow it to reach room temperature naturally.
In this way the unnecessary frost building up
can be avoided.
Foods can take over odours from each
other. So it is essential to put foods in closed
dishes or wrap them in cellophane, alumini-
um foil, grease-proof paper or cling film before plac-
ing them into the refrigerator. This way foods will
keep their moisture e.g. vegetab les will not dry out
after some days.
How to make ice cubes
To make ice cubes fill the enclosed ice cube tray with
water and put it to the ice-making compartment or on top
of it. Wetting the bottom of the tray and setting thermosta-
tic control knob to maximum stage can shorten preparing
time. After finishing do not forget to reset the thermostat-
ic control to the suitable stage.
In case of no room for ice tray ice cubes can be made
and/or stored on top of ice-making compartment.
For purchasing further ice trays contact your local dealer.
Ready ice cubes can be taken out of the tray under run-
ning water then twist or hit it.
Some useful information and advice
The shelf inside the appliance has a back-folding part on
the left side that makes storing large-sized bottles possi-
ble.
Top doorshelves taken out of the appliance can be used
for serving foods (fruit, salads, etc.).
Two doorshelves put together can be used for storing
foods in or outside the appliance (e.g. on excursions).
Hints and ideas
In this chapter practical hints and ideas are given about
how to use the appliance to reach maximum energy sav-
ing and there is environmental information about the
appliance as well.
How to save energy
Avoid putting the appliance in a sunny place and near
anything that gives off heat.
Be sure that the condenser and the compressor are
well ventilated. Do not cover the sections where ven-
tilation is.
Wrap products in tightly closing dishes or cling film to
avoid building up unnecessary frost.

Do not leave the door open longer than necessary
and open it when it is needed.
Put liquid into the appliance only in a closed dish.
Put warm foods and liquid in the appliance only when
they are at room temperature.
Defrost the appliance when the ice in the ice-
making compartment is more than 4 - 5 mm
thick.
Keep the condenser clean.
The appliance and environ-
ment
This appliance does not contain gasses which could
damage the ozone layer, in either its refrigerant circuit or
insulation materials. The appliance shall not be discarded
together with the urban refuse and rubbish. Avoid damag-
ing the cooling unit, especially at the rear near the heat
exchanger. Information on your local disposal sites may
be obtained from your municipal authorities.
The materials used on this appliance marked with the
sympol
are recyclable.
Maintenance
Defrosting
Bleeding part of the moisture of cooling chamber in form
of frost and ice goes with the operation of the refrigera-
tor.
Thick frost and ice has an insulating effect, so it reduces
cooling efficiency as the temperature increases, it needs
more energy, at a certain thickness it does not allow the
door of the ice-making compartment to open, possibly
the door can be broken.
We recommend to defrost the ice-making
compartment once a week and when the
frost is more than 4-5 mm.
How to defrost it:
Break the circuit of the appliance or turn thermostatic
control knob into „0" position.
Empty the ice box. Wrap foods inside into newspaper
and put them on a cool place or into another appliance.
Leave the door of the appliance and ice-making compart-
ment open.
Defrosting usually takes several hours. When finished,
pour defrost water gathered out of the tray and wipe the
surfaces dry.
Apply voltage to the appliance or turn thermostatic con-
trol knob to middle („4") position.
Put foods taken out back to their places.
