Instructions for Use Refrigerator - Freezer Thank you for your trust and for buying this appliance. We hope it will successfully serve the purpose for many years. Refrigerator with freezer is for domestic use only. The upper part of the appliance is refrigerator and is used for storing fresh foods at the temperature of 0°C and higher. The lower part is freezer and is used for freezing fresh foods and storing frozen foods for longer periods of time (up to one year, depending on the kind of foods you store).
Before Putting Into Use • Before connecting the appliance to the mains supply, leave it stand for about 2 hours, which will reduce a possibility of malfunctions in the cooling system due to transport handling. • Clean the appliance, and be thorough, especially in the interior (See Cleaning and Maintenance). • In case the interior accessories are not correctly placed, rearrange them as described in chapter Description of the Appliance.
• Never use continuous operation unless unnecessarily required; switch the operation mode selection switch to the setting for automatic operation as soon as possible. • Before loading the appliance with packages of fresh foods, make sure they are cooled to ambient temperature. • Ice and frost layer increase energy consumption, so do clean the appliance as soon as the layer is 3-5 mm thick. • If the gasket is damaged or if it turns out that the sealing is poor, the energy consumption is substantially higher.
• If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer or his service agent or a qualified person in order to avoid hazard. • The rating plate is inside the appliance or outside on the rear wall.
Placing and Installation Choosing the Right Place Place the appliance in a dry and regulariy ventilated room. Allowed ambient temperature depends on the model (class) of the appliance and is stated on the rating plate of the appliance. Class SN (sub-normal) N (normal) ST (sub-tropical) T (tropical) Ambient temparature from + 10°C to + 32°C from + 16°C to + 32°C from + 18°C to + 38°C from + 18°C to + 43°C Never place the appliance near heat emitting devices (e.g.
Description of the Appliance 62 Instructions for Use
Refrigerator (A) Refrigerator is used for storing fresh foods for few days. Shelf (1) (number depends on the model) Shelf can be optionally placed on the guides inside the appliance. It is protected against pulling out. If you want to remove it, slightly lift up the back part and pull it out. Glass shelves (some models only have them) are protected with plastic spacers. Before pulling the shelf out, spacers must be moved towards you.
Fruit and Vegetable Container (3) The container is on the bottom under the glass shelf and is used mainly for storing fruits and vegetables. It provides adequate humidity which has favourable effect on food stored (less dehydration). Door Liner The door liner consists of various shelves or holders used for storing eggs, cheese, butter and yogurt as well as other smaller packages, tubes, cans etc. The lower shelf is used for storing bottles.
Operation Control The appliance is controlled with thermostat knob, situated in the right upper part inside the refrigerator. Turn the knob clockwise from STOP (0) position towards 7 and backwards. Temperature Selection • Higher settings on the knob (towards 7) mean lower temperatures (colder) in all compartments of the appliance. At higher settings temperature in the interior of the appliance may even drop below 0°C. When the ambient temperature is normal, we recommend medium setting.
Use Storing Fresh Foods Proper use of the appliance, adequately packed food, correct temperature and taking into account hygienic precautions will substantially influence the quality of the food stored. • Foods to be stored in the refrigerator should be properly packed as to prevent mixing various moisture degrees and odors (in polyethylene bags or sheet, aluminium foil, wax paper), or stored in covered containers or bottles.

Maintenance and Cleaning Automatic Defrosting of the Refrigerator There is no need to defrost the refrigerator, because ice depositing on the inner back wall is defrosted automatically. Ice is depositing on the inner back wall during the compressor operation; later on, when the compressor is not operating ice is defrosting and water drops collect and drain through the outlet in the inner back wall into the drain pan situated above the compressor, from where it evaporates.
• Remove the detachable accesories in the interior of the appliance and clean it with water and liquid detergent. Plastic parts cannot be washed in washing machine. • Wash the interior of the appliance with lukewarm water, in which you added one or two spoonfuls of vinegar. • Every now and then wipe the condenser on the rear wall. Use soft non-metal brush or vacuum cleaner. • Do not forget to clean also the defrost water receptacle above the refrigerator compressor (do not remove the receptacle).
Trouble-Shooting Guide During the service, you can come across some troubles that in most cases result from improper handling of the appliance and can easy be eliminated. The Appliance Fails to Operate After connecting to the Mains Supply • Check the supply in the outlet socket and make sure the appliance is switched on (thermostat in operating position). Continuous Operation of the Refrigerating System • The door was frequently opened or it was left opened for too long.
• Manually defrost the increased ice layer. See Ice Formation on the Inner Back Wall. The Freezer Door is Hard to Open If you want to open the door that has just or recently been closed, you may find it hard to open. The reason why this happens is, that when you open the door, warm air gets into the appliance and when it is getting cool, the underpressure seals the door. After few minutes (510), the door can easily be opened.
Bulb Replacement Before replacing the light bulb, disconnect the appliance form the power supply. Press the cover at the rear side (in the arrow 1 direction) and remove the plastic cover (in the arrow 2 direction). Replace the bulb with a new one (E14, max. 15 W). Don't forget: the old bulb does not belong to organic waste. Light bulb is consuming good therefore our in-guarantee service does not relate to it.
Mounting Instructions Integrated Refrigerator with Freezer Mounting instructions for refrigerating and freezing appliances are for qualified technicians only. Appliance should be mounted and installed in compliance with these instructions, current standards and regulations. Mounting instructions were prepared for various types/models of appliances, therefore they may describe some procedures that do not apply to your appliance.
Mounting Dimensions and Required Air Circulation The rear wall of the appliance is getting warm during the operation of the appliance and water is evaporating from the drain pan on the compressor. You must therefore provide for adequate air circulation on the rear of the appliance. • At the base of the kitchen unit intended for building in the integrated appliance, there should be at least 200 cm² free space, for adequate air circulation.
Reversing the door opening If you find the door opening direction of your appliance inconvenient, you can reverse it. The necessary holes on the opposite side of the appliance cabinet have been made in the factory and plugged. • Remove the top hinge cover of the refrigerator door. Remove the door by unscrewing the hinge (the door is supported only by the bottom hinge) and remove the hinge washer. • Unscrew the top strip, move it on the opposite side of the appliance and fasten it.

Mounting the Appliance • Push the appliance for some 38 mm into the kitchen unit and allow at least 4 mm free space on both sides between the appliance and the side walls of the kitchen unit (Fig. 1). • Widely open both the doors and put them together with the door of the kitchen unit. The procedure is as follows: − Fix the slide guides (attached in a plastic bag along with the screws ST 4,2 x 9,5) to the edge of the door. Cover the open holes with the attached cap.
