How to save energy
Avoid putting the appliance in a sunny place and near
anything that gives off heat.
Be sure that the condenser and the compressor are
well ventilated. Do not cover the sections where venti-
lation is.
Wrap products in tightly closing dishes or cling film to
avoid building up unnecessary frost.
Do not leave the door open longer than necessary and
avoid unnecessary openings.
Put warm foods into the appliance when they are at
room temperature.
Keep the condenser clean.
The appliance and environment
This appliance does not contain gasses which could dam-
age the ozone layer, in either its refrigerant circuit or insu-
lation materials. The appliance shall not be discarded
together with the urban refuse and rubbish. Avoid damag-
ing the cooling unit, especially at the rear near the heat
exchanger. Information on your local disposal sites may
be obtained from your municipal authorities.
The materials used on this appliance marked with the sym-
pol are recyclable.
Maintenance
Defrosting
Bleeding part of the moisture of cooling chambers in form
of frost and ice goes with the operation of the appliance.
Thick frost and ice has an insulating effect, so it reduces
cooling efficiency as the temperature increases in the
cooling chambers and they need more energy.
At this type of appliance defrosting the cooling plate of the
refrigerator is automatic without any external intervention.
The thermostatic control interrupts the operation of com-
pressor at regular intervals for more or less time - during
this cooling is interrupted - the temperature of the cooling
plate goes above 0C due to interior heating load of the
compartment, so defrosting occurs. When the surface
temperature of the cooling plate has reached +3 - +4C
the thermostatic control restarts operation of the system.
Melting water flows through defrost water outlet leaded
through the back into the evaporative tray maintained on
the top of compressor and evaporates due to its warmth.
Check and clean the outlet of melting water
coming during defrosting regularly - a label
inside the appliance warns you for this. 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.
The most typical case of clogging up in the melting water
outlet when you put food wrapped in some paper into the
appliance and this paper contacts back plate of the refrig-
erator 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.
