Hints
Saving Energy
Pay careful attention to where the cabinet is placed. See the section
ÒInstallationÓ. When installed correctly the cabinet will consume less energy.
Try to avoid keeping the doors open for long periods or opening the doors too
frequently as warm air will enter the cabinet and cause the compressor to
switch on unnecessarily often.
If the ambient temperature is high, the thermostat knob is on the coldest
setting (higher numbers) and the appliance is fully loaded, the compressor
may run continuously, causing frost or ice to form on the evaporator. If this
happens, turn the knob to a warmer setting (lower numbers) to allow
automatic defrosting and so a saving in electricity consumption.
Do not place warm foods inside the appliance. Allow warm foods to cool first.
Keep the heat emitting condenser, the metall grille on the rear wall of your
appliance, always clean.
Hints for refrigeration
Do not store warm food or evaporating liquids in the refrigerator and do cover or
wrap up the food, particularly if it has a strong smell.
To help you use your refrigerator correctly, here are some useful hints:
Raw meat (beef, pork, lamb & poultry): wrap in polythene bags and place on top
of the salad compartment, this being the coldest spot in the refrigerator.
Meat can only be stored safely in this way for one or two days at the most.
Cooked food, cold cuts, jelly, etc.: these should be well covered and can be stored
on any of the glass shelves.
Fruit & vegetables: these should be thoroughly cleaned and placed in the bottom
drawer/s.
Butter & cheese: these should be placed in special airtight containers or wrapped
in aluminium foil or polythene bags to keep out as much air as possible.
Milk bottles: these should have a top and should be stored in the bottle rack on
the door.
Bananas, potatoes, onions and garlic, if not packed, must not be kept in the
refrigerator.
Maintenance
Unplug the appliance before carrying out any maintenance operation.
Warning
This appliance contains hydrocarbons in its cooling unit maintenance and
recharging must therefore only be carried out by authorised technicians.
30
Defrosting
Bleeding part of the moisture of cooling chamber in form of frost and ice
goes with the operation of the refrigerator.
Thick frost and ice has an insulating effect, so it reduces cooling efficiency
as the temperature increases, it needs more energy, at a certain thickness it
does not allow the door of the frozen food compartment to open, possibly
the door can be broken.
At this type of appliance defrosting fresh food compartment is automatic
without any external intervention.
The thermostatic control interrupts the operation of compressor at regular
intervals for more or less time - during this cooling is interrupted - temperature
of the fresh food compartment increases and defrosting occurs. After
defrosting the thermostatic control restarts operation of the system.
Melting water flows through defrost water outlet into the evaporative tray
maintained on the top of compressor and evaporates due to warmth of it.
Check and clean the outlet of melting water coming during defrosting
regularly. If it is clogged the melting water gathered can cause earlier
failure as it can go to the insulating of the appliance.
Clean the melting water outlet with the supplied pipe scraper that can be
seen in the figure. The pipe scraper has to be stored in the outlet.
Occasionally check defrost water
outlet not to be clogged up.
The most typical case of clogging up
in the defrost water outlet when
you put food wrapped in some
paper into the appliance and this
paper contacts back plate of fresh
food compartment and freezes to it.
If you remove the food right at this
moment the paper will tear and it
can cause clogging up in the outlet
by getting into it. So you are asked
to be careful - because of the above
- when placing foods wrapped in
paper into the appliance.
In case of increased demand e.g. during heatwaves, the refrigerator
temporarily happens to operate constantly. During this the automatic
defrosting is ineffective.
Remaining small ice and frost stains on back plate of the fresh food
compartment after defrosting period is not abnormal.
The frozen food compartment can not be equipped with automatic
defrosting set since the deep-frozen and frozen foods do not endure melting
temperature.
Provided it is not too thick, the layer of frost or ice can be scraped off and
removed using a plastic scraper.
31
When ice coating is so thick that it can not be removed with the plastic
scraper, the frozen food compartment has to be defrosted (generally 2-3
times a year).
Take the foods out of the frozen and fresh food compartment, wrap them
into some layers of paper or cloth. Put them to a possible cool place while
defrosting.
Break the circuit of the appliance and leave the doors of frozen and fresh
food compartment open.
Continuously blot off the defrosting water by a soft cloth or sponge.
After defrosting wipe the surfaces, apply voltage to the appliance and put the
foods back to their places.
It is recommended to operate the appliance at the highest position of the
thermostatic control so that it can reach the proper storing temperature as
soon as possible.
Cleaning
Never use metal objects for cleaning your appliance as it may get damaged.
NEVER use detergents, abrasive powders, highly perfumed cleaning
products or wax polishes to clean the interior as these will damage the
surface and leave a strong odour.
Clean the inside with warm water and bicarbonate of soda. Rinse and dry
thoroughly.
To guarantee a safe operation of the fridge, once a year remove the
ventilation grill at the base and clean the air channels with a vacuum cleaner.
When the appliance is not in use
Disconnect the appliance from the electricity supply.
Empty all foods and clean the appliance, leaving the doors ajar to prevent
unpleasant smells.
How to change the bulb
Should the light fail to work you can change it as below:
Break the circuit of the appliance.
Unscrew the plate screw fixing the lamp cover, then take the lamp cover off
in the direction of arrow and the bulb can be changed. (Type of the bulb:
Mignon 322, 230 V, 15 W, E 14
thread)
After changing bulb replace the
lamp cover, screw the plate screw
and apply voltage to the appliance.
The lack of light does not influence
operation of the refrigerator.
