INSTALLATION
HOW TO OPERATE THE REFRIGERATOR/
FREEZER COMPARTMENT
•
Make sure that your refrigerator is not near a heat source.
•
Install it in a dry and well-ventilated place.
•
To ensure proper ventilation leave a 1 cm space on both sides and above the refrigerator.
•
Clean the inside of the refrigerator before using it.
•
Leave the refrigerator (without moving it) for at least one hour before connecting it to the power
outlet.
•
The appliance must be connected to a water supply that delivers drinking or chemically purified water.
•
Install and level the refrigerator on a floor strong enough to take its weight and in an area suitable for
its size and use.
•
Do not use the refrigerator in places where the temperature can fall below 13°C.
•
Be careful not to damage the floors when moving the appliance (e.g. parquet).
•
Connect the appliance to the water supply and power supply (see Installation manual).
•
When the appliance is connected to the power supply, two hyphens will appear on the freezer display
until the optimum temperature is reached. The refrigerator display will show a temperature of +5°C
(factory set).
•
When the appliance is warm, the red alarm LED will blink and the acoustic alarm sounds, indicating that
the appliance has not yet reached the optimum temperature for preserving food.
•
Press the Reset button to deactivate the acoustic alarm.
•
The red LED will stop blinking when the freezer compartment reaches a sufficiently low
temperature for preserving food. At this point food can be placed in the freezer compartment.
•
After being switched on, the refrigerator needs 2/3 hours to reach the correct temperature to store a
typical volume of food in the refrigerator compartment.
IMPORTANT
: If food is introduced before the refrigerator has cooled completely, it may deteriorate.
Turning the refrigerator and freezer controls to a cooler than recommended setting will not cool the
compartments any faster.
•
Do not place food near the air vents in the refrigerator compartment.
•
A built-in exterior moisture control continuously guards against moisture build-up on the front edges;
Do not be alarmed if these edges sometimes feel warm to the touch.
•
The inside light switches on when both doors are opened.
