  • Page 6 • Do not re-freeze food that is defrosting or that has already been defrosted. These foods must be cooked and eaten (within 24 hours). • Fresh food that needs to be frozen must not come into contact with food that has already been frozen. Evenly distribute the fresh food in the FREEZER and STORAGE compartment to ensure rapid freezing.
  • Page 7: Switching Appliance Off

    • The appliance is manufactured with hygienic materials which are odour free. In order to maintain an odour free refrigerator and to prevent the formation of stains, food must always be covered or sealed properly. • If you want to switch the appliance off for an extended period of time, clean the inside and leave the doors open.
  • Page 8 If circulation is impeded, the compressor will work continuously. • Do not place hot food directly into the refrigerator. The internal temperature will increase and force the compressor to work harder and will consume more energy.
  • Page 9 10°C. • The TEMPERATURE ADJUSTMENT knob is not in the correct position. • The food is in contact with the back inside wall of the refrigerator. • The door is not closed properly or is continuously opened. • The outside ambient temperature is very high.
