Avoid  opening  the  door  of  frozen  food 

compartment during freezing if possible. 

        

It is not expedient to set the thermostat knob 

to higher (e.g. max) position. Freezing time could 
be  reduced  this  way,  but  the  temperature  of  the 
fresh  food  compartment  would  go  beyond  0  ºC 
permanently, which would cause freezing to foods 
and drinks stored there.

       

Never freeze food in bigger quantity than 

given in the “Technical data” at the same time, 
otherwise  freezing  will  not  be  thorough  and 
after dissolving various deterioration may take 
place (losing taste and aroma, lysing, etc.).

Storing in the freezer

After finishing freezing it is practical to put the 
frozen  food  from  the  wire  drawer  in  the  frozen 
food  compartment  into  the  basket  under  that 
making room for a next possible freezing. Food 
already stored is not damaged by another freezing. 

               

Do not forget to keep to the storage time 

given on the packaging of frozen products if you 
buy them frozen. 

        

It is safe to store quick-frozen, frozen foods 

only if they have not dissolved even for a short 
time until placing them into freezer.
If  the  deep-frozen  food  has  already  dissolved, 
refreezing is not recommended, it has to be used 
as soon as possible. 

        

Some useful information and advice 

    

The variable shelves are worth paying attention 

to, which increases the usability of the fresh 
food compartment considerably. Rearranging 
the shelves is also possible when the door is 
open at an angle of 90. 

After opening and closing the door of freezer 

vacuum will rise inside the appliance because 
of the low temperature. So wait 2-3 minutes 
after closing the door if you want to open it 
again while inner pressure equalizes. 

Take care of operating the freezer at a position 

of  thermostatic  control  so  that  the  inside 
temperature can never be warmer than -18 ºC

It  is  practical  to  make  sure  of  faultless 

operation of the appliance daily so as to notice 
possible  failure  in  time  and  prevent 
deterioration of frozen foods.

Normal operating sounds: 

o

 

A thermostat controls the compressor and you 

   

will hear a faint click when thermostat cuts in 
and out. 

o

 

You may hear faint gurgling or bubbling sound 

when  the  refrigerant  is  pumped  thorough  the 
coils at the rear, to the cooling plate/evaporator.

o

 

When  the  compressor  is  on,  the  refrigerant  is 
being  pumped  round  and  you  will  hear  a 
whirring  sound  or  pulsating  noise  from  the 
compressor. 

o

 

The fridge evaporator (this part cool down the 

fridge section) is foamed into the cabinet. The 
temperature  of  this  part  changing  during  its 
work, and parallel with this its dimensions are 
slightly  changing,  too.  These  changes  might 
cause  a  cracking  noise,  which  is  natural, 
harmless phenomenon. 

 

       

Should you want to check the temperature of 

food  stored  in  the  refrigerator,  set  the 
thermostat knob into a medium position, place 
a glass of water centrally in the cabinet, and 
put a proper thermometer with an accuracy of

          

 

  

+/- 1 ºC into it. If after 6 hours you

           

 measure a value b3 ºC and +8 ºC 

the  refrigerator  works  properly.  The 
measuring  shall  be  performed  under  steady-
stated conditions (without changing the load).

 

 

If the freezer temperature is measured using a 

thermometer,  put  it  between  the  products 
since this will reflect the real temperature in 
the frozen products. 

Hints and ideas

 

In this chapter practical hints and ideas are given 
about how to use the appliance to reach maximum 
energy  saving  and  there  is  environmental 
information about the appliance as well. using a 
thermometer,  put  it  between  the  products  since 
this will reflect the real temperature in the frozen 
products.

The plastic bag of accessories also contains two 
spacers  to  be  fitted  into  special  holes  in  the 
back of the appliance. Fit the spacers into the 
holes, taking care to ensure that the spacer is 
positioned as shown in Figure. Then turn them 
through 45°  until they lock into place. 

Do  not  stand  the  appliance  on  a  sunny  place  or 
close to a radiator or cooker.
If it is unavoidable because of furnishing and the 
appliance has to be stood near a cooker take these 
minimum distances into consideration: 
 In case of gas or electric cooker 3 cm must be left, 
when it is less put a 0,5 - 1 cm non-flam insulation 
between the two appliances. 
 In case of oil or coal-fired stove the distance must 
be 30 cms since they give off more heat.
The refrigerator is designed to operate when it is 
totally pushed to the wall.

  

When placing the refrigerator keep minimal 
distances recommended in figure. 

       

A: placing it under a wall-cupboard 

       

B: placing it freely 

Change of door opening direction
Should the setting-up place or handling demand it,
 

                                         

door opening direction 

can  be  refilled  from 
right-handed  to  left-
handed.

                                          

Appliances on the 

                                           

market are right-

                                            

handed.
