Putting it into use
Place the accessories into the appliance then plug to the
mains socket.
To start cooling turn the thermostatic control knob on the
right-hand side of the compartment from „0” clockwise.
In „0” position the appliance is out of operation.
The next paragraph will give instructions for setting.
Handling the appliance
Controlling the temperature, setting
The thermostatic controller interrupts the operation of the
appliance automatically for more or less time depending
on the setting then restarts it assuring the required tem-
perature.
Turning the control button towards the bigger numbers
cooling becomes more and more intensive.
Operate the appliance in the „5” thermostatic knob posi-
tion for 4-5 hours after the installing so that the tempera-
tures reach the +5 °C in the fridge and -18 °C in the
freezer. After reset the thermostatic knob to the „3” posi-
tion and place the foodstuffs to be made cold and to be
frozen into the adequate compartment. The „3” position
generally meets the requirements of everyday cooling.
We recommend you to keep the above mentioned in
case of defrosting and cleaning as well as placing of fair-
ly big quantity foodstuffs too.
The temperature coming about in the refrigerator is
effected by not only the position of the thermostatic con-
trol but the ambient temperature, frequency of door
openings and the quantity of food put into it newly, etc.
In the maximum i.e. „5” position - in case of
increased demand e.g. during heatwaves - with-
out disconnecting continuous operation can
occur. This does not cause damages to the appliance.
How to use the refrigerator
For adequate cooling developing interior air cir-
culation is necessary. For this reason you are
asked not to cover the whole surface of the wire
shelves with paper, trays, etc.
Do not put hot food into the refrigerator.
Allow it to reach room temperature naturally.
In this way the unnecessary frost building up
can be avoided.
Foods can take over odours from each other.
So it is essential to put foods in closed dish-
es or wrap them in cellophane, aluminium
foil, grease-proof paper or cling film before placing
them into the refrigerator. This way foods will keep
their moisture e.g. vegetables will not dry out after
some days.
Storing in the refrigerator
When placing the different kinds of food take into consid-
eration the sketch below in figure:
1. Confectionery, ready-cooked foods, foods in
dishes, fresh meat, cold cuts, drinks
2. Milk, dairy products, foods in dishes
3. Fruits, vegetables, salads
4. Cheese, butter
5. Eggs
6. Yoghurt, sour cream
7. Small bottles, soft drinks
8. Big bottles, drinks
Storage time and temperature of
foods
The storage time chart at the end of the instruction book
gives information about storage time.
The storage time can not be determined exactly in
advance, as it depends on the freshness and handling of
the cooled food. That is why the storage time made
known is only informative.
If you do not want to use up deep-frozen foods bought
immediately they can be stored for about 1 day (until dis-
solving) in the refrigerator.
