Changing the Direction of Opening the Door

If you find the direction of opening the door on your appliance inconvenient, you can change it. Holes on the opposite side have already been prepared in the factory and are now plugged.

• Remove the cover of the upper hinge, unscrew the hinge and take off the door (the door is not fixed on the lower hinge).

• Unscrew the upper rail, replace it to the opposite side of the appliance and fix it.

• Remove the washer from the lower hinge and unscrew (rotate it in clockwise) the fastener on the lower hinge.

• Replace the fastener and the washer in reverse order into the opening of the lower hinge on the opposite side of the appliance.

• Take off all door corners and interchange them (instead of the corner with a hole insert the one without the hole and vice versa).

• Put the door of the appliance on the lower hinge.

• Fix the upper hinge and cover it.

• Replace the slide guides to the opposite side of the door.

• Plug the remaining holes with decorative caps.

• Check the gasket, it shouldn't be creased and it should seal well. In case it does not fit perfectly, pull it out and rotate for

180°.

In certain models it is not possible to replace the door gasket.

Should the seal not adhere to the casing of the appliance perfectly, it will have to be heated from a suitable distance (by means of hair drier, for example) and lightly stretched to the required height.

Changing the Direction of Opening the Door on the Low

Temperature Compartment

• Unscrew the blocking element and the hinge of the low temperature compartment and take off the door.

• Plug the holes with plastic caps provided.

• Turn the door for 180° and replace it on the opposite side of the low temperature compartment. Fix the hinge and the blocking element of the door (position of holes already provided).

• 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.

Instructions for Use

These instructions for use are intended for the user. They describe the appliance and its correct and safe use. They were prepared for various types/models of refrigerators therefore you might find in it description of some functions and accesories that your appliance does not have.

Mounting Instructions

Integrated appliances are equipped with instructions for mounting the appliance into the kitchen unit.

The appliance should be professionally mounted by qualified technician and instructions are for his use only.

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.

26 Instructions for Use

• Every now and then check if the appliance is sufficiently ventilated (adequate air circulation behind the appliance).

• Turn the thermostat knob from higher to lower setting as soon as possible (depends on how loaded the appliance is, ambient temperature...).

• Before loading the appliance with fresh food, make sure it was 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 colour, 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 devices (hair dryer etc.) 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).

• The rating plate is inside the appliance or outside on the rear wall.

Disposing of the Worn Out Appliance

• When your appliance finally wears out, dispose it of. If the appliance has a lock, break it, in order to prevent eventual accidents (danger of children get locked inside the appliance).

• The refrigerating system of the appliance is filled with refrigerant and insulating substances which should be separately treated and processed. Call your nearest authorised service agent or specialised servicing centre. If you don't find one, contact your local authorities or your distributor. Be careful not to damage the tubes on the rear wall of the appliance (danger of pollution).

Instructions for Use 27

Placing and Installation

Choosing the Right Place

Place the appliance in a dry and regularly ventilated room. Allowed ambient temperature depends on the model (class) of the appliance and is stated on the rating plate of the appliance. Never place the appliance near heat emitting devices (e.g. cooker, radiator, water heater or similar devices) and do not expose it to direct sunlight. The appliance should be positioned at least 3 cm away from the electric or gas cooker and at least 30 cm away from the oil or coal stove. If this is not possible, use an appropriate insulation. Behind the appliance there should be free space at least 200 cm² wide and above the appliance the high kitchen units should be at least 5 cm away from the appliance in order to assure adequate ventilation of the condenser unit.

Connection to Power Supply

Connect the appliance with the cable and plug to the power supply socket outlet with a ground terminal (safety socket).

Required nominal voltage and frequency are indicated on the rating plate.

The connection to the mains supply and earthing have to be made according to current standards and regulations. The appliance resists temporary voltage tolerance up to -6 to

+6 %.

Description of the Appliance

Shelf (1)

(the number of shelves depend on model)

Shelf can be optionally placed on the guides inside the appliance. It is protected against pulling out. If you want to remove it, slightly lift up the back part and pull it out. Glass shelves

(some models only have them) are protected with plastic spacers. Before pulling the shelf

28 Instructions for Use

out, spacers must be moved towards you.

Spacers can be also removed, however, it is better to keep them for any later transport.

Quickly perishable food should be stored on the back i.e. the coldest part of the shelves.

Bottle rack

(in some models only)

Bottle rack (number depends on model) is intended for storing the bottles. There are two installation positions available (horizontal or lifted in the front) thus enabling the positioning of bottles on the stopper as well. It is protected against pulling out. If you want to pull it out, simply lift its rear part and pull it towards you.

Warning!

If the door contains storing shelves, install the rack in such position that the length of the bottles will not hinder the closing of the door.

The rack may carry 9 bottles of 0,75 l or more at the maximum (total weight max. 13 kg) – note the label underneath the thermostat box inside the appliance.

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).

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.

• Various accesories (spice container, tube holder or additional shelves) can be bought in authorised 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 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. 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.

Instructions for Use 29

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 should 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 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.

• Unpleasant odour 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.

30 Instructions for Use

Maintenance and Cleaning

Automatic Defrosting of the

Refrigerator

There is no need to defrost the refrigerator, because ice depositing on the inner back wall is defrosted automatically. Ice is depositing on the inner back wall during the compressor operation; later on, when the compressor is not operating ice is defrosting and water drops collect and drain through the outlet in the inner back wall into the drain pan situated above the compressor, from where it evaporates.

Cleaning the Appliance

Disconnect the power supply before

cleaning the appliance. Do not use coarse or aggressive cleaning agents as you can damage the surface. Be careful to remove any cleanser agent remaining after cleaning.

• Clean the exterior with water and detergent.

Varnished surfaces are cleaned with soft cloth and an alcohol based cleaning agent

(for example glass cleaners). You may also use alcohol (ethanol or isoprophylic alcohol).

The application of abrasive and specially aggressive cleaners, such as the stainless steel cleaners, is not appropriate for the cleaning of plastic and coated parts.

• Remove the detachable accesories in the interior of the appliance and clean it with water and liquid detergent. Plastic parts cannot be washed in washing machine.

• Wash the interior of the appliance with lukewarm water, in which you added one or two spoonfuls of vinegar.

• Every now and then wipe the condenser on the rear wall. Use soft non-metal brush or vacuum cleaner.

• Do not forget to clean also the defrost water

receptacle above the refrigerator compressor (do not remove the receptacle).

After cleaning, connect the appliance to power supply and reload it.

Switch Off the Appliance When Not In

Use

If you do not intend to use the appliance for a longer period, set the thermostat knob to the

STOP (0) position, disconnect the power supply, take out the foods and defrost and clean the appliance. Leave the door slightly open.

Trouble-Shooting Guide

During the service, you can come across some troubles that in most cases result from improper handling of the appliance and can easy be eliminated.

The Appliance Fails to Operate After

Connecting to the Mains Supply

• Check the supply in the outlet socket and make sure the appliance is switched on

(thermostat knob in operating position).

Continuous Operation of the Cooling

System

• The door was frequently opened or it was left opened for too long.

• The door is not properly closed (the door may sag, the gasket may be polluted or damaged).

• Perhaps you have overloaded the appliance with fresh foods.

• The reason may be inadequate ventilation of the compressor and condenser (assure

Instructions for Use 31

adequate air circulation and wipe off the condenser).

Ice Formation on the Inner Rear Wall

As long as the defrost water runs to the channel and through the outlet to the drain pan on the compressor, automatic defrosting of the appliance is assured. In case the ice formation on the inner back wall is increased (3-5 mm), ice should be manually defrosted. Set the thermostat knob to STOP (0) position and leave the door open. Never use electric devices for defrosting and do not scrape the ice or frost layer with sharp objects. After completed defrosting, turn the knob to desired position and close the refrigerator door. The cause of increased ice formation may be one of the following:

− the door does not seal well (clean the gasket if it is contaminated, or replace it if it is damaged);

− the door was frequently opened or it was left opened for too long;

− the food stored in the refrigerator was warm;

− the food or dish is touching the inner back wall.

Water is Leaking From the Refrigerator

In case the discharge water outlet is clogged, or the defrost water drips over the channel, water leaks from the refrigerator.

• Clean the clogged outlet, for example with a plastic straw.

• Manually defrost the increased ice layer. See

Ice Formation on the Inner Rear Wall.

Noise

Cooling in refrigerating-freezing appliances is enabled by the cooling system with compressor, which produces noise. How noisy the appliance is depends on where it is placed, how it is used and how old the appliance is.

During the operation of the compressor the noise of liquid is heard and when the compressor is not operating, the refrigerant flow is heard. This is a normal condition and it has no influence whatsoever on the lifetime of the appliance.

After starting the appliance, the operation of the compressor and the refrigerant flow may be louder, which does not mean that something is wrong with the appliance and it has no influence on the lifetime of the appliance. Gradually the noise is reduced.

• Sometimes unusual and stronger noise is heard, which is rather unusual for the appliance. This noise is often a consequence of inadequate placing.

− The appliance shall be placed and levelled firmly on solid base.

− It should not touch the wall or kitchen units standing next to it.

− Check the accesories in the interior of the appliance, they should be placed correctly in their positions; also check the bottles, tins and other vessels that might touch each other and rattle.

Bulb Replacement

Before replacing the light bulb, disconnect the appliance form the power supply. Press the cover at the rear side (in the arrow 1 direction) and remove the plastic cover (in the arrow 2 direction). Replace the bulb with a new one

(E14, max. 15 W). Don't forget: the old bulb does not belong to organic waste.

Light bulb is consuming good therefore our in-guarantee service does not relate to it.
