Pull out the drain channel
from the freezer cabinet,
turn it 180° and secure
it (see diagram). Place
a suitable container
underneath the channel
outlet.
∙
To accelerate defrosting,
one or several containers
with hot (but not boiling) water may be placed inside the
freezer compartment. Do not pour water over or inside the
unit.
∙
Warning:
Do not use any external device or other means
(e.g. heaters or heating fans) to accelerate de-frosting.
∙
Clean the unit with a damp cloth and a little detergent. Wipe
thoroughly dry afterwards.
∙
Replace the drain channel and cover panel.
∙
Set the temperature control to its maximum position. After 24
hours, it may turned back to its normal setting.
Defrosting the refrigerator cabinet :
∙
The refrigerator cabinet does not require de-frosting, but
only proper cleaning.
∙
The integral vapouriser is sealed in foam in the rear wall;
you may therefore notice a build-up of frost around the
rear area. This layer of frost will start melting when the
compressor is not working. Through a system of hoses,
the melt-water drains into the collection tray below the
compressor, where it will be absorbed into the surrounding
air.
∙
To enable the melt-water to drain freely, always ensure that
the channel and discharge opening in the cabinet are free of
any blockage.
∙
Any water collecting in the bottom should be removed.
Energy saving tips
∙
The appliance should be set up in a well-ventilated, dry
room.
∙
Do not expose the appliance to direct sunlight, and do not
position it next to any heat sources (radiators, cookers etc.).
If this cannot be avoided, however, suitable insulation must be
installed between the heat source and the unit.
∙
Ensure suf
fi
cient air circulation around the sides of the unit.
∙
The compressor (at the rear) should be cleaned at regular
intervals. Accumulated dust causes an increase in energy
consumption.
∙
Warm food should be allowed to cool down before it is
stored inside.
∙
To prevent an increased build-up of ice, do not leave the
doors of the unit open for too long when loading or taking
out food.
∙
Frequent de-frosting helps to save energy. For detailed
information on cleaning the appliance, please refer to the
section
De-frosting and cleaning
.
∙
Do not set a lower-than-necessary temperature. For detailed
information on the temperature settings, please refer to the
section
Temperature control
.
Operating noise
∙
Certain typical sounds can be heard when the appliance is
switched on. These sounds are:
∙
caused by the electrical
motor within the
compressor assembly;
during compressor
start-up the sound level
will be slightly higher for
a limited period of time.
∙
caused by the cooling
agent
fl
owing through the circuit.
Trouble-shooting
The following table lists possible malfunctions and their
probable causes and solutions. In the event of operational
p roblems, check
fi
rst whether a solution can be found using this
table. If the problem persists, disconnect the appliance from the
mains power and contact our Customer Service Department.
