Never use continuous operation unless
unnecessarily required; switch the
operation mode selection switch to the
setting for automatic operation as soon as
possible.
Before freezing packages of fresh foods,
make sure they are cooled to ambient
temperature.
Ice and frost layer increase energy
consumption, so do clean the appliance as
soon as the layer is 3-5 mm thick.
If the gasket is damaged or if it turns out
that the sealing is poor, the energy
consumption is substantially higher. To
restore efficiency, replace the gasket.
The condenser on the rear wall should be
always clean, free of dust or any impurities.
Always consider instructions stated in
sections Positioning and Energy Saving
Tips, otherwise the energy consumption is
substantially higher.
Important
This appliance is manufactured in
compliance with relevant safety standards.
However, it is still advisable it is not used
without due supervision by persons with
diminished physical, motoric, or mental
capabilities or persons with inadequate
experience or knowledge. The same
recommendation applies to minors using
the appliance.
If you've bought this appliance to replace an old
one equipped with a lock that cannot be opened
from inside (lock, bolt), make sure that the lock
is broken. This will make it impossible for the
children to lock themselves in the appliance and
suffocate.
Mind to connect the appliance correctly to the
mains supply (see Connection to the Mains
Supply).
Do not touch the cooled surfaces while the
appliance operates, especially not with wet
hands, because the skin might stick to the cold
surfaces.
Do not freeze bottled drinks, especially not fizzy
ones such as mineral water, sparkling wine,
beer, cola etc., because liquid expands during
freezing and the glass bottle is very likely to blow
up.
Never try to eat frozen food (bread, fruit,
vegetables), because you may get frostbites.
Carefully check the foods for color and smell
and if you are in doubt about their quality, throw
them away because they may be spoiled and
therefore dangerous to eat.
Disconnect the appliance from the mains before
repairing (only a qualified technician should
repair it) and before cleaning.
Do not use sharp object for defrosting the
appliance. Use only enclosed tools or tools
recommended by the manufacturer.
For the sake of environment protection - be
careful not to damage the rear wall of the
appliance (the condenser unit or the tubes - for
example when moving the appliance) or any
part of the refrigerating system inside the
appliance.
The refrigerating system of the appliance is filled
with refrigerant and oil, so when the appliance is
damaged, handle it with care and dispose it of in
compliance with environmental protecting
precautions. (See We Care for the
Environment).
Heating element incorporated in the appliance,
all around the rim, is controlled by the operation
of the compressor and it prevents the door
gasket to freeze on to the freezer compartment.
When activating the Super function, the red light
may turn on. This is normal condition and there
is no need for warning.
If the supply cord is damaged, it must be
replaced by the manufacturer or his service
agent or a qualified person in order to avoid
hazard.
The rating plate is in the interior or on the rear
wall of the appliance.

Ventilation slots on the appliance
or a built-in element must always be clean
and unobstructed.
Warning!
Do not use mechanical devices
or tools to defrost the refrigerator, nor any
other methods except for those
recommended by the manufacturer.
Warning!

removing the appliance, make sure the
insulation on the refrigeration system parts
is not damaged. Thus you will also prevent
damage to the environment.
