before the first use

3

Before using the appliance for the first time, you should proceed as follows: carefully unpack the appliance and remove all 

packaging material and any promotional stickers. Keep the packaging (plastic bags, polystyrene and cardboard) out of the 

reach of children. After unpacking the appliance, check it for external damage that may have occurred during transport. 

Place the appliance on a sturdy, flat surface and make sure there is enough space all around for sufficient ventilation. A 

minimum space of 10 cm is required between the appliance and the surrounding walls. In this way the appliance is able 

to release heat properly, cool well and function in an energy efficient way. You can use the adjustable feet to level the 

appliance. Do not place the appliance near heat sources such as central heating or a stove. Do take note of the climate class 

of the appliance. When placed in a room that is too cold, the refrigerator will not function properly.

After placing the appliance, leave it for at least 3 hours before inserting the plug in the socket. 

First clean the interior of the appliance. Use warm soapy water with, for instance, washing-up liquid, all-purpose cleaner or 

soda. Wipe the inside of the appliance after cleaning with clean water and properly wipe everything dry. Leave the appliance 

to dry for 1 to 2 hours.

The control unit of the appliance is located on the inside. Check that the voltage corresponds with what is stated on the 

information plate and insert the plug in the socket. 

SETTING THE TEMPERATURE OF THE COOLER SECTION

The thermostat of the cooler section is located on the inside of the refrigerator. Repeatedly press the temperature knob 

[1]

to set the required temperature. There are six temperature positions. 

2°C

 is the coldest position and the 

FAST COOL

position ensures that the appliance cools 

down rapidly. If too much food is stored in the 

refrigerator at once, it is possible to switch on the 

FAST COOL

 function. The refrigerator makes the 

food as cool as possible for a period of 2.5 hours, 

after which the refrigerator switches back to the pre-set temperature.
We recommend setting the appliance to the temperature position of 

4°C

 when using the appliance in a room with room 

temperature.  

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 knob to the 

required position and fill the appliance with food. 
If the ambient temperature rises, set the appliance to a lower temperature position in order to be able to guarantee the 

interior temperature.

SETTING THE TEMPERATURE OF THE FREEZER SECTION

The thermostat of the freezer section is located on the inside of the refrigerator, behind the 

vegetable drawer. 

There are three positions. The 

COOLER (winter) 

position is the coldest position. Turn the 

thermostat knob 

[2]

 to the required position. 

We recommend setting the appliance to the 

NORMAL

 position when using the appliance in a room 

with room temperature.  
If the ambient temperature rises, turn the thermostat knob between positions 

NORMAL

 and 

COOL 

(summer)

 to be able to guarantee the interior temperature.

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.

•   Leave sufficient space between the different foods, to allow the air to circulate properly. 

•   Do not place food against the rear wall of the appliance. The shelves have a stopper to prevent this.

•   Do not leave the door open for longer than necessary.
