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
x
Higher settings on the knob (towards
7
)
mean lower temperatures (colder) in all
three 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.
x
Changes of the ambient temprature affect
temperature in the interior of the appliance
(choose correct setting of the thermostat
knob).
x
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).
x
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.
x
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).
x
Before storing food in the refrigerator,
remove the excessive packaging (like
yoghurt in multi-package).
x
Pack systematically and make sure that
foodstuffs do not touch each other (various
odours may mix). Assure adequate air
circulation around packages.
x
Never store inflammable, volatile or
explosive substances.
x
Beverages with high alcohol percentage
should be stored in tightly sealed bottles in
vertical position.
x
Food should not touch the rear wall of the
refrigerator!
x
Foods should be cooled down before
storing.
x
Crispy and delicate foods should be stored
in the coldest parts of the refrigerator.
x
Try not to open the door too often.
x
Set the thermostat to the setting where
lower 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.
x
Some organic solutions like volatile oils in
lemon or orange peel, acid in butter etc.
could cause damage and when in contact
with plastic surfaces or gaskets for longer
period of time they can even cause
accelerated ageing of the plastic material.
x
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.
x
If you plan a longer journey, make sure to
remove quickly perishable articles of food
out of the appliance before you leave.
