INSTALLATION
Aufstellung
Das Gerät sollte nicht in der Nähe von
Wärmequellen wie Heizkörpern oder Öfen
aufgestellt und vor direkter Sonneneinstrahlung
geschützt werden. Aus Gründen der Sicherheit muß
eine Mindestbelüftung gesichert sein, wie aus der
Abb. hervorgeht.
Anordnung des Gerätes unter den Oberschränken
der Küche (siehe Abb. A).
Anordnung des Gerätes ohne Oberschränke der
Küche (siehe Abb. B).
Achtung: Die Ventilations - Öffnungen müssen
immer saubergehalten werden.
Die Nivellierung erfolgt durch Drehen der am
Unterteil des Gerätes angebrachten
Nivellierfüßchen.
Elektrischer Anschluß
Bevor Sie den Stecker in die Steckdose einstecken,
überprüfen Sie bitte, daß die auf dem Typenschild
des Gerätes angegebene Spannung sowie
Frequenz mit dem Anschlußwert des Hauses
übereinstimmen. Eine Abweichung von ±6% von der
Nominalspannung ist zulässig. Für die Anpassung
des Gerätes an andere Spannungen muß ein
Spartransformator angemessener Leistung
vorgeschaltet werden.
Das Gerät muß unbedingt vorschriftsmäßig geerdet
werden. Zu diesem Zweck ist der Stecker des
Speisekabels mit dem dafür vorgesehenen Kontakt
versehen. Sollte die Netzleitung im Haus nicht mit
einer Erdleitung versehen sein, so muß das Gerät
an eine getrennte Erdleitung vorschriftsmäßig und
unter Hinzuziehung eines Fachmanns
angeschlossen werden.
Die Erzeugerfirma lehnt jede Verantwortung ab,
falls diese Unfallverhütungsvorschrift nicht
beachtet wird.
Storage of frozen food
When first starting-up or after a period out of use,
before putting the products in the compartment
press the ambient switch at least 12 hours before.
To obtain the best performance from this appliance,
you should:
if large quantities of food are to be stored, remove
all drawers and baskets from appliance and place
food on cooling shelves.
Pay careful attention not to exceed load limit stated
on the side of the upper section (where applicable).
Thawing
Deep-frozen or frozen food, prior to being used, can
be thawed in the refrigerator compartment or at
room temperature, depending on the time available
for this operation.
Small pieces may even be cooked still frozen,
directly from the freezer: in this case, cooking will
take longer.
Ice-cube production
This appliance is equipped with one or more trays
for the production of ice-cubes. Fill these trays with
water, then put them in the freezer compartment.
Do not use metallic instruments to remove the
trays from the freezer.

Freezing fresh food
The 4-star compartment is suitable for
long term storage of commercially frozen food, and
for freezing fresh food. Do not exceed the storage
times shown by the manufacturer on the
commercially frozen food packets.
If the freezer has already been working for some
time, press the ambient switch at least 12 hours
before introducing the food into the freezer in order
to ensure better freezing results.
Place the food to be frozen on the upper
compartment.
Important
Do not put carbonated liquids (fizzy drinks, etc.) in
the freezing compartment as they may burst.
Water ices, if consumed immediately after removal
from the freezing compartment, can possibly cause
the skin to be freeze burnt.
Remember that, once thawed, frozen food deterio-
rates rapidly.
The temperature alarm light (C)
The temperature alarm light turns on automatically
whenever the temperature within the freezer rises
above a certain value which might endanger
satisfactory long-term conservation.
It is perfectly normal for the temperature alarm light
to remain lit up for a short time after the freezer is
initially turned on. It will remain lit up until the
optimum temperature for the conservation of frozen
food is attained.
Important
If there is a power failure when food is in the
freezer, do not open the door of the freezer
compartment. The frozen food will not be
affected if the power cut is of short duration (up
to 6-8 hours) and the freezer compartment is full,
otherwise, it is recommended that the food
should be used within a short time (a
temperature increase of the frozen food
shortens its safe storage period).
USE OF THE REFRIGERATOR
Operation
The temperature inside the refrigerator compartment
can be selected using thermostat (F).
Temperature regulation
The temperature is automatically regulated and can
be increased to achieve a higher temperature
(warmer) by rotating the thermostat knob toward
lower settings or reduced (colder) rotating the knob
towards higher settings.
However, the exact setting should be chosen
keeping in mind that the temperature inside the
refrigerator depends on:
room temperature;
how often the door is opened;
the quantity of food stored;
location of appliance.
A medium setting is generally the most suitable.
To stop operation, simply turn the thermostat knob to
position «O».
