Warning!
When storing longer bottles, install the rack on higher position
not disturbing the closing of the door inner liner (vessels,
bottles or food stored in the door), however its positioning on
guides in the appliance is optional.
Defrost Water Outlet (2)
The interior of the refrigerator is cooled with cooling plate
incorporated in the rear wall. Under the plate there is a channel
and an outlet for defrost water.
Regularly check the defrost water outlet and the channel,
because they should never be clogged (as for example with
food rests). If clogged, use a plastic straw and clean it.
Fruit and Vegetable Container (3)
The container is on the bottom of the appliance under the glass
shelf. It provides adequate humidity which has favourable
effect on fruit and vegetables stored in it (less dehydration).
Bottle stopper (4)
(in some models only)
The bottle stopper (number depends on the model) prevents
the bottles from moving in the door rack.
Door Liner
The door liner consists of various shelves or holders used for
storing eggs, cheese, butter and yogurt as well as other
smaller packages, tubes, cans etc.
The lower shelf is used for storing bottles.
Illumination in the Interior of the Refrigerator
The light for illuminating the interior of the appliance is on,
when the door is opened. The operation of the light does not
depend on the position of the thermostat knob.
NOTE:
•
The appliance can be equipped with various accesories,
depending on the model of the appliance.
•
Door handles have various shapes, depending on the model.
•
Various accesories (spice container, tube holder or
additional shelves) can be bought in authorized centres.
Operation Control
The appliance is controlled with thermostat knob, situated in
the right upper part inside the appliance.
Turn the knob from
STOP (0)
position towards
7
and
backwards.
Temperature Selection
•
Higher settings on the knob (towards
7
) mean lower
temperatures (colder) in all compartments of the appliance.
Temperature in the interior of the appliance may even drop
below 0°C. Higher settings should be used only in case
higher temperature is recommended or required.
When the ambient temperature is normal, we recommend
medium setting.
•
Changes of the ambient temprature affect temperature in the
interior of the appliance (choose correct setting of the
thermostat knob).
•
In
STOP (0)
position the appliance does not operate (the
cooling system is switched off), yet power supply is not
interrupted (the light is on, when you open the refrigerator
door).
•
Temperature in the refrigerator also depends on how often
the door is opened.
Use
Storing Fresh Foods
Proper use of the appliance, adequately packed food, correct
temperature and taking into account hygienic precautions will
substantially influence the quality of the food stored.
•
Foods to be stored in the refrigerator should be properly
packed as to prevent mixing various moisture degrees and
odors (in polyethylene bags or sheet, aluminium foil, wax
paper, or stored in covered containers or bottles).
•
Before storing food in the refrigerator, remove the excessive
packaging (like yoghurt in multi-package).
•
Pack systematically and make sure that foodstuffs do not
touch each other (various odours may mix). Assure
adequate air circulation around packages.
•
Never store inflammable, volatile or explosive substances.
•
Beverages with high alcohol percentage shall be stored in
tightly sealed bottles in vertical position.
•
Food should not touch the rear wall of the refrigerator!
•
Foods should be cooled down before storing.
•
Crispy and delicate foods should be stored in the coldest
parts of the refrigerator.
•
Try not to open the door too often.
•
Set the thermostat to the setting where lowest temperatures
are reached. Set the thermostat gradually as to avoid
freezing of the foods.
Use a thermometer and measure the temperature in the
individual compartments. Place the thermostat in a glass
vessel filled with water. Temperature readings are most
reliable few hour after steady state is reached.
•
Some organic solutions like volatile oils in lemon and orange
peel, acid in butter etc. can cause damages when in contact
with plastic surfaces or gaskets for longer period of time.
•
Unpleasant odor inside the refrigerator is a sign that
something is wrong with foods or that your refrigerator needs
cleaning. Unpleasant odor can be eliminated or reduced by
washing the interior of the refrigerator with a mild solution of
water and vinegar. We also recommend using activated
carbon filters to clean the air or to neutralize odors.
•
If you plan a longer journey, make sure to remove quickly
perishable articles of food out of the appliance before you
leave.
