Handling the appliance
Putting it into use

Place the accessories into the appliance then plug to 
the mains socket. The thermostat knob is installed in 
the work plate on the refrigerator. You can switch the 
appliance  on  and  set  the  temperature  with  it  by 
turning the knob clockwise.
The next paragraph will give instructions for setting.
 

Controlling the temperature, setting

 

The  thermostat  interrupts  the  operation  of  the 
appliance  automatically  for  more  or  less  time 
depending on the setting then restarts it assuring the 
required temperature. The closer it is set to maximum 
position the more intensive the refrigerating will be. 
When  the  thermostat  knob  is  set  to  a  medium 
position (between minimum and maximum), in the 
freezer  a  temperature  colder  than  -18  00,  in  the 
refrigerator 5 ºC can be reached. Setting it to 
a medium position is adequate for everyday use. 
The temperature coming about in the refrigerator is 
effected by not only the position of the thermostat but 
the ambient temperature, frequency of door openings 
and the quantity of food put into it newly, etc. 

In  the  maximum  position  -  in  case  of 

   

increased demand e.g. during heat waves 
- the compressor may operate continually. 
This  does  not  cause  damages  to  the 
appliance. 

How to use the refrigerator

 

For adequate cooling developing interior air 

circulation is necessary. For this reason you are asked 
not  to  cover  the  air  circulation  gaps  behind  the 
shelves (e.g. with tray etc.).

Do not put hot food into the refrigerator. 

Allow it to reach room temperature naturally. In 
this way the unnecessary frost building up can be 
avoided.

 

Foods can take over odors from each other. 

So it is essential to put foods in closed dishes or wrap 
them in cellophane, aluminum foil, and greaseproof 
paper  or  cling  film  before  placing  them  into  the 
refrigerator. This way foods will keep their moisture 
e.g. vegetables will not dry out after some days. 

         

Storing in the refrigerator

When placing the different kinds of food take into 
consideration the sketch below in figure: 
1.Butter, cheese 
2.Eggs 
3.Tubes, cans, sour cream, small bottles 
4.Drinks in big bottles, soda-water and mousse    
    siphon 
5. Frizzed food storage
6. Fast freeze 
7. Fruits, vegetables, salads
8. Milk, dairy products, ready-cooked foods,  
    confectionery, foods in dishes covered,  
    opened, cans, bottles laid, fresh meat,   
    sausages, etc.
 

Storage time and temperature of foods

 

The storage time chart at the end of the instruction 
book gives information about storage time.
The storage time can not be determined exactly in 
advance, as it depends on the freshness and handling 
of the cooled food. That is why the storage time made 
known is only informative. 
If  you  do  not  want  to  use  up  deep-frozen  foods 
bought immediately they can be stored for about 1 
day (until dissolving) in the refrigerator. 

How to use the freezer 
Freezing 

In the compartment various fresh food can be frozen 
at home. Mind the following to get thorough result. 
Freeze fresh and faultless food only. Before starting 
freezing  set  the  thermostatic  control  knob  to 
maximum  position  and  put  the  wire  drawer  in  the 
frozen  food  compartment  to  the  highest  position. 
Then put in the quantity to be frozen, directly into the 
wire  shelf.  Freezing  is  completed  in  approx.  24 
hours.  After  24  hours  set  the  thermostatic  control 
knob  back  to  Medium  position,  which  is  usually 
adequate for everyday use. It is practical to store the 
frozen food in the lower basket.
