[. . . ] There are two installation positions available (horizontal or lifted in the front) thus enabling the positioning of bottles on the stopper as well. If you want to pull it out, simply lift its rear part and pull it towards you. 27 Instructions for Use Fruit and Vegetable Container (3) The container is on the bottom of the appliance under the glass shelf. It provides adequate humidity which has favourable effect on fruit and vegetables stored in it (less dehydration). Door Liner Warning! If the door contains storing shelves, install the rack in such position that the length of the bottles will not hinder the closing of the door. The rack may carry 9 bottles of 0, 75 l or more at the maximum (total weight max. 13 kg) – note the label underneath the thermostat box inside the appliance. The door liner consists of various shelves or holders used for storing eggs, cheese, butter and yogurt as well as other smaller packages, tubes, cans etc. The lower shelf is used for storing bottles. Illumination in the Interior of the Refrigerator The light for illuminating the interior of the appliance is on, when the door is opened. The operation of the light does not depend on the position of the thermostat knob. Defrost Water Outlet (2) The interior of the refrigerator is cooled with cooling plate incorporated in the rear wall. Under the plate there is a channel and an outlet for defrost water. Regularly check the defrost water outlet and the channel, because they should never be clogged (as for example with food rests). If clogged, use a plastic straw and clean it. NOTE:  The appliance can be equipped with various accesories, depending on the model of the appliance. Temperature readings are most reliable few hour after steady state is reached.  Some organic solutions like volatile oils in lemon or orange peel, acid in butter etc. could cause damage and when in contact with plastic surfaces or gaskets for longer period of time they can even cause accelerated ageing of the plastic material.  Unpleasant odour inside the refrigerator is a sign that something is wrong with foods or that your refrigerator needs cleaning. Unpleasant odor can be eliminated or reduced by washing the interior of the refrigerator with a mild solution of water and vinegar. We also recommend using activated carbon filters to clean the air or to neutralize odors.  If you plan a longer journey, make sure to remove quickly perishable articles of food out of the appliance before you leave.

Ice is depositing on the inner back wall during the compressor operation; later on, when the compressor is not operating ice is defrosting and water drops collect and drain through the outlet in the inner back wall into the drain pan situated above the compressor, from where it evaporates. Instructions for Use 29 Cleaning the Appliance Disconnect the power supply before cleaning the appliance. Do not use coarse or aggressive cleaning agents as you can damage the surface. Be careful to remove any cleanser agent remaining after cleaning. After completed defrosting, turn the knob to desired position and close the refrigerator door.
