[. . . ] • If the supply cord is damaged it must be replaced by the manufacturer or service agent or appointed qualified person. • Do not defrost the appliance with other electrical devices (i. e. hair dryer) or other artificial means, and do not use sharp metal objects to remove the ice on the freezer, as this could cause damage to the refrigerant system. • Do not operate any electrical appliances inside the refrigerator or freezer. • Do not place bottles (glass or tin) containing liquids (especially sparkling liquids) into the freezer as they could cause the bottle to burst during freezing. • Do not touch the cooling surfaces while the appliance operates, especially with wet hands, because the skin may stick to cold surfaces. EN - 15 - • Do not eat ice, which has just been removed from the freezer. • The appliance is not intended for use by people (including children) with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge, unless they have been given supervision or instruction concerning use of the appliance by a person responsible for their safety. Children should be supervised to ensure that they don’t play with the appliance. • If the supply cord is damaged it must be replaced by the manufacturer or service agent or similary qualified people in order to avoid a hazard. Switching On the Appliance • Before switching on, place the appliance on upright position and wait at least three hours without moving the appliance. This will give the refrigerant circuit time to settle and operate efficiently. • Clean the appliance thoroughly, especially in the interior, before use (See Cleaning and Maintenance). This will prevent food inside the freezer from defrosting; it will avoid heavy ice and frost build-up inside the freezer and an unnecessary increase in energy consumption. RED INDICATOR PART 3. FOOD STORAGE IN THE APPLIANCE Refrigerator Compartment Refrigerator compartment is used for storing fresh food for few days. • Do not place food in direct contact with the rear wall of the refrigerator compartment. Leave some space around food to allow circulation of air. • Do not place hot food or evaporating liquid in the refrigerator. • Always store food in closed containers or wrapped. • To reduce humidity and avoid formation of frost, never place liquids in unsealed containers in the refrigerator. • Meat of all types, wrapped in packages, is recommended to be placed on the glass shelf just above the vegetable bin, where the air is colder. • You can put the fruits and vegetables into crisper without packing. • To avoid the cold air escaping, try not to open the door too often, and not leave the door open for a long time. EN - 18 - Freezer Compartment Freezer compartment is used for freezing fresh foods and for storing frozen foods for the period of time indicated on packaging, and for making ice cubes. • For freezing fresh food; wrap and seal fresh food properly, that is the packaging should be air tight and shouldn’t leak. Special freezer bags, aluminum foil (heavy grade, in doubt double wrap), polythene bags and plastic containers are ideal. [. . . ] • When making ice cubes, fill the ice tray with water and place in freezer compartment. After the water completely turned into ice, you can twist the tray as shown below to get the ice cube. EN - 19 - PART 4. CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE • Disconnect the appliance from the power supply before cleaning. • Do not pour water over the appliance. • The refrigerator compartment should be cleaned periodically using a solution of bicarbonate of soda and lukewarm water. • Clean the accessories separately with soap and water. Do not put them in the dishwasher. • Do not use abrasive products, detergents or soaps. After washing, rinse with clean water and dry carefully. [. . . ]
