(06. ) 200370705 PERFEKT IN FORM UND FUNKTION Dear customer, Before switching on your new appliance please read these operating instructions carefully. They contain important information for safe use, for installation and for care of the appliance. Please keep these operating instructions for future reference. [. . . ] Rearranging the shelves is also possible when the door is open at an angle of 90 . After opening and closing the door of freezer vacuum will rise inside the appliance because of the low temperature. So wait 2-3 minutes after closing the door - if you want to open it again - while inner pressure equalises. Take care of opening the freezer at a position of thermostatic control so that the inside temperature can never be warmer than -18 C. It is practical to make sure of faultless operation of the appliance daily so as to notice possible failure in time and prevent deterioration of frozen foods. Normal operating sounds: A thermostat controls the compressor and you will hear a faint click when thermostat cuts in and out. You may hear faint gurgling or bubbling sound when the refrigerant is pumped through the coils at the rear, to the cooling plate/evaporator. When the compressor is on, the refrigerant is being pumped round and you will hear a whirring sound or pulsating noise from the compressor. The fridge evaporator (this part cool down the fridge section) is foamed into the cabinet. The temperature of this part changing during its work, and parallel with this its dimensions are slightly changing, too. These changes might cause a cracking noise, which is a natural, harmless phenomenon. Should you want to check the temperature of food stored in the refrigerator, set the thermostat knob into a medium position, place a glass of water centrally in the cabinet, and put a proper thermometer with an accuracy of +/- 1 °C into it. If after 6 hours you measure a value between +3 °C and +8°C, the refrigerator works properly. The measuring shall be performed under steady-stated conditions (without changing the load). If the freezer temperature is measured using a thermometer, put it between the products since this will reflect the real temperature in the frozen products. 71 Hints and ideas In this chapter practical hints and ideas are given about how to use the appliance to reach maximum energy saving and there is environmental information about the appliance as well. How to save energy 1. 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. [. . . ] 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. [. . . ]
