the appliance should be switched on after minimum

2 hours from its replacement in the right position

(g.2).

• Pull the plug out from the mains socket before each

- 9 -

maintenance activity. Do not pull on the cord, but

hold the body of the plug instead.

• The “cracking” sound, which the appliance may emit

is caused by the expansion and contraction of parts

as a result of temperature variations.

• For safety reasons do not repair the appliance your-

self. Repairs carried out by persons who do not have

the required qualications may result in serious dan-

ger for the user of the appliance.

• Air the room in which the appliance is placed for a few

minutes (the size of the room for a product contain-

ing isobuthane/R600a must be at least 4m3) to avoid

damage to the cooling system.

• Do not refreeze partly thawed products.

• Do not store beverages in bottles and cans, especially

carbonated beverages, in the freezer chamber. The

cans and the bottles may explode.

• Do not put frozen products, taken out directly from

the freezer (lollies, ice cubes, etc.) into your mouth,

their low temperature may cause severe frostbite.

• Make sure you do not damage the cooling system,

by puncturing the refrigerant pipes in the evaporator

or breaking the pipes. The refrigerant is ammable.

they are of the type recommended by the manufac-

turer.

• If the socket does not match the refrigerator plug,

it must be replaced by the manufacturer, its service

agent or similar qualied persons in order to avoid a

hazard.

• In order to obtain more space in the freezer, you can

remove the drawers and place the food directly on the

shelves. This has no eect on the product mechanical

OPERATION AND FUNCTIONS

Storage of food in the fridge-freezer

• The products should be placed on plates, in containers or packed in

food wrap. Distribute them evenly over the shelves.

• If the food contacts the rear wall, it may cause frosting or wetting of

the products.

• Do not put dishes with hot food into the fridge

• Products which absorb avours easily such as butter, milk, white

cheese and products with intense avour, such as sh, smoked meat,

hard cheese must be placed on shelves, packed in food wrap or in

tightly sealed containers.

• The storage of vegetables containing signicant quantities of water

will cause the deposition of condensation on the vegetable contain-

ers, it does not impact on the proper functioning of the fridge.

• Before putting the vegetables into the fridge, dry them well.

• Excessive moisture shortens the shelf life of vegetables, especially

the leafed vegetables.

• Do not wash the vegetables before storing in the refrigerator. Wash-

ing removes the natural protection, therefore it is better to wash the

vegetables directly before consumption.

• It is recommended to place the products in freezer drawers 1, 2, 3*

up to natural loading capacity (Fig. 11a / 11b).**

1. Packed products

2. Shelf

3. Natural loading capacity

4.

!

• Stacking of products on the freezer shelves is acceptable.*

• It is acceptable to place products beyond the natural loading capacity

by 20-30 mm.**

• In order to increase the loading capacity of the freezer chamber and

allow the stacking of products on the freezer evaporator wire shelves

up to maximum height it is possible to remove drawers 1 and 2.*

Freezing food**

• Practically all the food products, except for vegetables consumed

raw, such as lettuce can be frozen.

• Only food products of the highest quality, divided into small portions

for single use, should be frozen.

• Products should be packed in materials that are odourless, resistant

to air and moisture penetration, and not susceptible to fat. Plastic

bags, polyethylene and aluminium sheets are the best wrapping ma-

terials.

• The packaging should be tight and should stick to the frozen prod-

ucts. Do not use glass containers.

• Keep fresh and warm foodstu at ambient temperature away from

the products, which have already been frozen.

• We advise you not to place more of fresh food at a time to the freezer

per day (see table witch technical specication).
