How to save energy
Avoid putting the appliance in a sunny place near
anything that gives off heat.
Be sure that the condenser and the compressor
are well ventillated. Do not cover the sections
where ventilation is.
Wrap products in tightly closing dishes or cling
film to avoid bulding up unnecessary frost.
Do not leave the door open longer than
necessary and avoid unnecessary openings.
Put warm foods into the appliance only when
they are at room temperature.
Keep the condenser clean.
The appliance and environment
This appliance does not contain gasses which
could damage the ozone layer, in either its
refrigerant circuit or insulation materials. The
appliance shall not be discarded together with the
urban refuse and rubbish. Avoid damaging 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 sympol  are recyclable.
Maintenance
Defrosting
Bleeding part of the moisture of cooling chambers in
form of frost and ice goes with the operation of the
applince.
Thick frost and ice has an insulating effect, so it
reduces cooling efficiency as the temperetaure
increases in the cooling chambers, they need more
energy.
At this type of appliance defrosting the cooling surface
of the refrigerator is automatic without any external
intervention. The termostatic control interrupts the
operation of compressor at regular intervals for more or
less time - during this cooling is interrupted - the
temperature of the cooling surface goes above 0°C
due to interior heating load of the compartment, so
defrosting occurs. When the surface temperature of
the cooling surface has reached +3 - +4°C the
thermostatic control restarts operation of the system.
Melting water flows through defrost water outlet leaded
through the back into the evaporator 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
refrigerator 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
heatwawes, the refrigerator temporarily happens to
operate constantly - during this the automatic defrosting
does not work.
Remaining small ice and frost stains on back plate of the
refrigerator after defrosting period is not abnormal.
Defrosting of the freezer is automatic in this model.
Regular cleaning
Clean the equipment regularly.
Don't use detergents, abrasive or strongly
odorous cleaners, waxy polishing agents
or disinfectants or alkoholic products for cleaning
the equipment.
Before cleaning pull out the wall plug of the equipment
from the outlet.
Internal cleaning 
Clean the internal parts of the equipment and the
accessories with warm water and sodium bicarbonate
(5 ml to 0.5 litre of water).
Rinse and dry everything thoroughly. Clean the door
seal profile with clean water.
External cleaning
Clean the external parts of the equipment with warm
water and sodium bicarbonate (5 ml to 0.5 litre of
water).
It is recommended to remove the dust and dirt
deposited on the back side of the equipment and on
the condenser once or twice a year, and to clean the
evaporation tray on top of the compressor.
After cleaning, reconnect the equipment to the mains
supply.
When the refrigerator 
is not in use
In case the appliance will not be used for a long time
follow these steps:
Break the circuit of the appliance.
Remove foods from the refrigerator.
Defrost and clean it as written before.
Leave the door open to avoid a build up of air inside.
How to change the bulb
Should the light fail to work you can change it as below:
Break the circuit of the appliance.
Press the rear hook (1) and at the same time slide the
cover in the direction indicated by the arrow (2). So the
bulb can be replaced. (Bulb type: T 25 230-240 V, 25
W, E 14 thread)
After changing the bulb replace the cover, snap it in
place and apply voltage to the appliance.
Trouble shooting

If something does not work
During operation of the appliance some smaller but
annoying trouble can often occur, which does not
require calling a technician out. In the following chart
information is given about them to avoid unnecessary
charges on service.
We draw your attention that operation of appliance goes
with certain sounds (compressor- and circulating
sound). This is not trouble, this goes together with the
operation of the appliance.We draw it to your attention again that the
appliance operates discontinuously, so the
stopping of compressor does not mean being no-
current. That is why you must not touch the
electrical parts of the appliance before breaking the
circuit.

Change of door opening direction
Should the setting-up place or handling demand it,
door-opening direction can be refitted from right-
handed to left-handed.
Appliances on the market are right-handed.
Following operations are to be done on the basis of
figures and explanations:
To perform the operations listed below it is
recommended to ask another person for help who
safely can keep the doors while performing the
operations.
GB
If the ambient temperature goes beyond the upper
data this means longer operating time of the
compressor, breakdown in the automatic defrosting
increasing temperature in the cooling compartment or
increasing energy consumption.
In the bag of the accessories there are two
spacers which must be fitted in the two top
corners.
If it is unavoidable because of furnishing and the
appliance has to be stood near a cooker take these
minimum distances into consideration:
In case of gas or electric cooker 3 cm must be left,
when it is less put a 0,5-1 cm non-flam insulation
between the two appliances.
In case of oil or coal-fired stove the distance must
be 30 cms since they give off more heat.
The refrigerator is designed to operate when it is
totally pushed to the wall.
When placing the refrigerator keep minimal
distances recommended in figure.

Our appliances are produced with the greatest of care.
However, a defect may still occur.  Our consumer services
department will repair this upon request, either during or after
the guarantee period. The service life of the appliance will
not, however, be reduced as a result. 
This declaration of guarantee terms is based on European
Union Directive 99/44/EC and the provisions of the Civil
Code. The statutory rights that the consumer has under this
legislation are not affected by this declaration of guarantee
terms.
This declaration does not affect the vendor's statutory
warranty to the end user. The appliance is guaranteed within
the context of and in adherence with the following terms:
1. In accordance with provisions laid down in paragraphs 2
to 15, we will remedy free of charge any defect that
occurs within 24 months from the date the appliance is
delivered to the first end user. These guarantee terms do
not apply in the event of use for professional or equivalent
purposes. 
2. Performing the guarantee means that the appliance is
returned to the condition it was in before the defect
occurred. Defective parts are replaced or repaired. Parts
replaced free of charge become our property.
3. So as to avoid more severe damage, the defect must be
brought to our attention immediately. 
4. Applying the guarantee is subject to the consumer
providing proof of purchase showing the purchase
and/or delivery date.
5. The guarantee will not apply if damage caused to delicate
parts, such as glass (vitreous ceramic), synthetic
materials and rubber, is the result of inappropriate use. 
6. The guarantee cannot be called on for minor faults that do
not affect the value or the overall reliability of the
appliance.
7. The statutory warranty does not apply when defects are
caused by:
a chemical or electrochemical reaction caused by
water, 
abnormal environmental conditions in general,
unsuitable operating conditions,
contact with harsh substances.
8. The guarantee does not apply to defects due to transport
which have occurred outside of our responsibility. Nor
will the guarantee cover those caused by inadequate
installation or assembly, lack of maintenance or failure to
respect the assembly instructions or directions for use.
9. Defects that result from repairs or measures carried out
by people who are not qualified or expert or defects thatresult from the addition of non-original accessories or
spare parts are not covered by the guarantee.
10. Appliances that are easy to transport may be delivered
or sent to the consumer services department. Home
repairs are only anticipated for bulky appliances or
built-in appliances.
11. If the appliances are built-in, built-under, fixed or
suspended in such a way that removing and replacing
them in the place where they are fitted takes more
than half an hour, the costs that result therefrom will be
charged for. Connected damage caused by these
removal and replacement operations will be the
responsibility of the user. 
12. If, during the guarantee period, repairing the same
defect repeatedly is not conclusive, or if the repair
costs are considered disproportionate, in agreement
with the consumer, the defective appliance may be
replaced with another appliance of the same value.
In this event, we reserve the right to ask for a financial
contribution calculated according to the length of time
it has been used.
13. A repair under guarantee does not mean that the
normal guarantee period will be extended nor that a
new guarantee period begins.
14. We give a twelve month guarantee for repairs, limited
to the same defect.
15. Except in the event where liability is legally imposed,
this declaration of guarantee terms excludes any
compensation for damage outside the appliance for
which the consumer wishes to assert his rights. In the
event of legally admitted liability, compensation will not
exceed the purchase price paid for the appliance.
These guarantee terms are only valid for appliances
purchased and used in Belgium. For exported
appliances, the user must first make sure that they satisfy
the technical conditions (e.g.: voltage, frequency,
installation instructions, type of gas, etc.) for the country
concerned and that they can withstand the local climatic
and environmental conditions. For appliances purchased
abroad, the user must first ensure that they meet the
qualifications required in Belgium. Non-essential or
requested adjustments are not covered by the guarantee
and are not possible in all cases.
Our consumer services department is always at your
disposal, even after the guarantee period has expired.
