[. . . ] SANTO Einbau - Kühlschränke Built-in - Refrigerators D Gebrauchsanweisung Operating instructions Dear customer, Before placing your new refrigerator/freezer into operation 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. Pass them on to possible new owners of the appliance. [. . . ] Reason: when the ambient temperature is high, the compressor must run continuously to maintain the low temperature in the appliance. The fridge will not be able to defrost since automatic defrosting of the fridge is only possible when the compressor is not running (see also "Defrosting" section). The result is the build up of a thick layer of frost on the fridge rear wall. If this happens, turn the temperature regulator back to a warmer setting (position "4" to "5"). At this setting the compressor will be switched on and off as usual and automatic defrosting recommenced. Switching off the appliance 1. To switch off the appliance, turn the temperature regulator to position "0". If the appliance is not going to be used for an extended period: 1. Switch off the appliance by turning the temperature regulator to position "0". Remove the mains plug or switch off or disconnect from the electricity supply. Clean thoroughly (see section: "Cleaning and Maintenance"). Leave the door open to avoid the build up of odours. 28 Interior Accessories Storage Shelves/Storage Racks Depending on the model, your appliance is equipped with either glass storage shelves or storage racks. The glass shelf above the fruit and vegetable compartment must always remain in this position so that fruit and vegetables stay fresh longer. The remaining storage shelves can be adjusted to various heights: 1. Pull the storage shelf forward until it can be tipped up or down and removed. To insert at a different height use the same procedure in reverse. Adjustment for tall goods (not for all models): Remove the front half of the twopart vario glass storage shelf and insert it at a different level. Space is thus gained for storage of tall goods on the underlying storage shelf. Variable Inner Door The door compartments can be pulled up and removed, and inserted at other positions as needed. 29 Correct Storage For physical reasons, there are different temperature regions in the fridge. The coldest region is on the lowest storage shelf. Warmer regions are the top storage shelf, the vegetable basket and the storage compartments on the door. The arrangement example shows at which places in the refrigerator suitable temperatures for various types of foods exist. Tip: Food in the fridge should always be covered or packaged, to prevent drying and tainting of other food. The following are suited for packaging: ­ Polyethylene airtight bags and wraps; ­ Plastic containers with lids; ­ Special plastic covers with elastic; ­ aluminium foil. Defrosting The fridge defrosts automatically The rear wall of the fridge covers with frost when the compressor is running, and defrosts when the compressor is off. The water from the thawing frost is collected in the drain channel on the rear of the fridge, feed through the drain hole into the collector on the compressor, and then evaporated. [. . . ] We recommend that you enter this information here, so that it is handy if needed. Note: The customer bears the costs of unjustified customer service calls even during the guarantee period. Noises during Operation The following noises are characteristic of refrigeration appliances: · Clicks Whenever the compressor switches on or off, a click can be heard. · Humming As soon as the compressor is in operation, you can hear it humming. · Bubbling/Splashing When refrigerant flows into thin tubes, you can hear bubbling or splashing noises.
