Recommendations
• If the appliance is switched off or unplugged, wait at least 5 minutes before plugging the
appliance in or restarting it in order to prevent damage to the compressor.
• The cooling unit of your refrigerator is located at the rear of the appliance. Therefore,
water droplets or ice may form on the rear surface of your fridge due to the operation
of the compressor at specified intervals. This is normal, there is no need to perform a
defrosting operation unless there is excessive ice.
• If you do not intend to use your fridge for a long period of time (such as during the summer
holidays), set the thermostat to “•” position, defrost and clean your fridge, leaving the
door open to prevent the formation of mildew and odour.
• If a problem persists after you have followed all the above instructions, please consult the
nearest authorised service centre.
• The appliance you have purchased is designed for domestic use only. It is not suitable
for commercial or common use. If the consumer uses the appliance in a way that does
not comply with this, we emphasise that the manufacturer and the dealer will not be
responsible for any repair and failure within the guarantee period.
Tips For Saving Energy
1.
Install the appliance in a cool, well-ventilated room, but not in direct sunlight and not near
a heat source (such as a radiator or oven) otherwise an insulating plate should be used.
2.
Allow warm food and drinks to cool before placing them inside the appliance.
3.
Place thawing food in the refrigerator compartment. The low temperature of the frozen
food will help cool the refrigerator compartment while the food is thawing. This will save
energy. Frozen food left to thaw outside of the appliance will result in a waste of energy.
4.
Drinks or other liquids should be covered when inside the appliance. If left uncovered, the
humidity inside the appliance will increase, therefore the appliance uses more energy.
Keeping drinks and other liquids covered helps preserve their smell and taste.
5.
Avoid keeping the doors open for long periods and opening the doors too frequently as
warm air will enter the appliance and cause the compressor to switch on unnecessarily
often.
6.
Keep the covers of the different temperature compartments (such as the crisper and
chiller) closed.
7.
The door gasket must be clean and pliable. In case of wear, if your gasket is detachable,
replace the gasket. If not detachable, you have to replace the door.
