“1” for
warmer. The factory rec-
ommended setting is
“2.5” under normal op-
erating conditions.
In Use
1. The appliance might not operate consistently (possibility
of defrosting of contents or temperature becoming too warm
in the frozen food compartment) when sited for an extended
period of time below the cold end of the range of
temperatures for which the refrigerating appliance is
designed
2. The fact that the internal temperatures could be affected
by such factors as the location of the refrigerating appliance,
ambient temperature and the frequency of door opening,
and, if appropriate, a warning that the setting of any
temperature control device might have to be varied to allow
for these factors
3. The fact that effervescent drinks should not be stored in
food freezer compartments or cabinets or in low-temperature
compartments or cabinets, and that some products such as
water ices should not be consumed too cold
4.The need to not exceed the storage time(s) recommended
by the food manufacturers for any kind of food
5. The fact that a rise in temperature of the frozen food
during manual defrosting, maintenance or cleaning could
shorten the storage life
6. It is better wrapping the frozen food in several layers of
the glass shelves.
7. the care required with regard to frozen food in storage in
the event of an extended non-running of the refrigerating
appliance (interruption of power supply or failure of the
refrigerating system)
General maintenance
Remove the plug from the socket before carrying out any
main-tenance.
Do not pull the cord to disconnect. Grasp the plug firmly to
pull it out.
Cleaning the appliance
To ensure better hygiene and safe storage of foods, it is
advisable to clean and disinfect the product regularly.
- Drain the appliance and place the contents in thermal bags
or newspapers, and then place them in a cool place.
- Clean the product inside and out with baking soda dissolved
in water (1 tablespoon to 4 litres of water).
- Do not use alcohol, scouring powder or detergents, as these
can damage the surfaces.
- Do not use steam pressure cleaners.
The fire-hot steam can damage the surfaces and the electri-
cal circuits. There is a direct risk of fatal electric shock.
Changing the bulb (depending on the model)
Pull the plug out of the socket.
Change the bulb as follows:
- Remove the protective grille using a pointed tool (a screw-
driver or a knife) by loosening it at the pin.
- The bulb can be seen. Remove the bulb and replace it with
a new one. Then put the protective grille back by repeating
the same procedure in reverse order.
Normal operation sounds
For the temperature of the product to remain constant, the mo-
tor operates at regular intervals. The sounds it causes are quite
normal operation sounds, and they will automatically become
shorter as soon as the product reaches the desired temperature.
It will make the following sounds:
Nuisances or minor defects
Defects may arise when using the product. Before contacting the
service centre, please check first whether you can resolve the
issue by using the following instructions:
Humming
This comes from the engine. This humming may at times become
stronger, i.e. when the engine starts.
Gurgling sounds or low humming
This is caused by the coolant circulating around the appliance.
Clicking
A faint clicking sound can always be heard when the electronic
card starts or stops the engine.
Low background noise
If the appliance has a fan (depending on the model), the air
circulating inside the product may create a low background noise.
Trouble-shooting
When calling, please give the product’s full reference details
(model, type, serial number).
These numbers are given on the name plate affixed to the prod-
uct. The location of the plate may vary, depending on model.
