[. . . ] In order to ensure a normal operation of your refrigerating appliance, which uses a completely environmentally friendly refrigerant the R600a (flammable only under certain conditions) you must observe the following rules: Do not hinder the free circulation of the air around the appliance. Do not use mechanical devices in order to accelerate the defrosting, others than the ones recommended by the manufacturer. do not destroy the refrigerating circuit. Do not use electric appliances inside the food keeping compartment, other than those that might have been recommended by the manufacturer. [. . . ] Do not freeze too large a quantity at any one time. The quality of the food is best preserved when it is frozen right through to the core as quickly as possible. Do not exceed the freezing capacity of your appliance in 24 h. Placing warm food into the freezer compartment causes the refrigeration machine to operate continously until the food is frozen solid. This can temporarily lead to excessive cooling of the refrigeration compartment. When freezing fresh food, keep the thermostat knob at medium position. (1 lb) can be frozen without adjusting the temperature control knob. Take special care not to mix already frozen food and fresh food. Final Check Before you start using the appliance check that: 1. The interior is dry and air can circulate freely at the rear. The plug has been inserted into the wall socket and the electricity is switched on. When the door is open the interior light will come on. You will hear a noise as the compressor starts up. The liquid and gases sealed within the refrigeration system may also make some (noise), whether the compressor is running or not. Slight undulation of the top of the cabinet is quite normal due to the manufacturing process used; it is not a defect. Fill the ice - cube tray 3/4 full with water and place it in the freezer. Loosen frozen trays with a spoon handle or a similar implement; never use sharp-edged objects such as knives or forks. Never use hairdryers, electrical heaters or other such electrical appliances for defrosting. Sponge out the defrost water collected in the bottom of the freezer compartment. After defrosting, dry the interior thoroughly (Item 8 & 9). Insert the plug into the wall socket and switch on the electricity supply. The defrost water runs to the drain tube via a collection container at the back of the appliance (Item 6). [. . . ] Don't- Try to keep frozen food which has thawed; it should be eaten within 24 hours or cooked and refrozen. Don't- Remove items from the freezer with wet hands. To keep the selected temperature constant, your appliance occasionally switches ON the compressor. When the motor switches ON, the noise may briefly increase in volume. [. . . ]
