Before Putting Into Use
•
Before connecting the appliance to the mains supply, leave it
stand for about 2 hours, which will reduce a possibility of
malfunctions in the cooling system due to transport handling.
•
Clean the appliance, and be thorough, especially in the
interior (See Cleaning and Maintenance).
•
In case the interior accessories are not correctly placed,
rearrange them as described in chapter "Description of the
Appliance".

We Care for the Environment
•
Our products use environmentally friendly packaging, which
can be either recycled or disposed of in an environmentally
friendly manner. To this end, individual packaging materials
are clearly marked.
•
These instructions are printed either on recycled paper or
chlorine free bleached paper.
•
When your appliance finally wears out, please try not to
burden the environment with it; call your nearest authorised
service agent. (See Disposing of the Worn Out Appliance)
Tips for Energy Savings
•
Try not to open the door too often, especially when the
weather is wet and hot. Once you open the door, mind to
close it as soon as possible. This is especially important if
you have an upright model.
•
Every now and then check if the appliance is sufficiently
ventilated (adequate air circulation behind the appliance).
•
Set thermostat from higher to lower settings as soon as
possible (depends on how loaded the appliance is, ambient
temperature etc).
•
Before loading the appliance with 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
•
If you have 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 children to lock themselves inside the
appliance and suffocate.
•
The appliance must be correctly connected to the mains
supply. (see: Connecting to the Mains Supply).
•
If the food has strange smell or color, throw it away, because
it is very likely that it is spoiled and therefore dangerous to
eat.
•
Disconnect the appliance from the power supply before
repairing it (only a qualified technician should repair it),
before cleaning and before replacing the light bulb.
•
Do not defrost the appliance with other electric appliances
(as for example with hair dryer) and never scrape the frost
layer with sharp objects. 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).
•
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 inside the appliance or outside on the rear
wall.
