Note!
Depending on the ambient temperature, service life, and quantity and
temperature of the refrigerated items, the temperature inside the refrigerator can
drop to below 0ºC when the thermostat is set at 7 (maximum cooling capacity).
Drinks can freeze, glass bottles and can may burst!
If the ambient temperature is very high, the cooling capacity decreases. This
does not mean than the appliance is defective.
USING THE REFRIGERATOR
The refrigerator provides sufficient storage space for food, milk, drinks etc. The
shelves on the inside of the door are suitable for bottles, tins and small packets.
The un-refrigerated space above the cooling compartment can be used for
storing glasses and snacks.
All food should be stored in its original packaging or in closed containers.
Liquids should also only be stored in closed bottles or containers. In this way
food remains moist, odours do not form and neither does excess ice form on the
cooling unit. Allow hot food and drink to cool down before placing them in the
refrigerator.
The temperature in the freezer section of the unit is set at - 12ºC. Frozen
products can be stored here for short periods (please follow the instructions on
the packet very carefully!)
Do not keep any easily combustible substances such as ether, petrol,
adhesive, propane gas etc. in the refrigerator, it could explode!
ICE CUBES
Fill the ice-cube container to 4/5 with potable water. Place the ice-cube
container in the freezer section. Wipe off any excess water to prevent the ice tray
from freezing to the surface.
To speed up the making of ice cubes, turn the thermostat to position 7 for a short
while. Remember to turn the dial to its normal setting when the ice cubes are
frozen.
To remove the cubes from the ice tray, hold it under running water. Remove the
lid with the ice cubes from the ice tray and the ice cubes can now be taken out
easily.
CARE AND MAINTENANCE
Defrosting
Frost will gradually form on the cooling surfaces and it must not be allowed to
become too thick since it impairs the cooling efficiency of the refrigerator.
A552 model
To defrost turn the thermostat dial to 0 remove the ice tray and leave the cabinet
and frozen food storage compartment door open.
