(as for example with food rests). If clogged, use a plastic straw and clean it.

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).

Bottle stopper (4)

(in some models only)

The bottle stopper (number depends on the model) prevents the bottles from moving in the door rack.

Door Liner

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.

NOTE:

ξ The appliance can be equipped with various accesories, depending on the model of the appliance.

ξ Door handles have various shapes, depending on the model.

ξ Various accesories (spice container, tube holder or additional shelves) can be bought in authorized centres.

Operation Control

The appliance is controlled with thermostat knob, situated in the right upper part inside the appliance.

Turn the knob from STOP (0) position towards 7 and backwards.

ξ In STOP (0) position the appliance does not operate (the cooling system is switched off), yet power supply is not interrupted (the light is on, when you open the refrigerator door).

ξ Temperature in the refrigerator also depends on how often the door is opened.

Temperature Selection

ξ Higher settings on the knob (towards 7) mean lower temperatures (colder) in all compartments of the appliance. Temperature in the interior of the appliance may even drop below 0°C. Higher settings should be used only in case higher temperature is recommended or required.

When the ambient temperature is normal, we recommend medium setting.

ξ Changes of the ambient temprature affect temperature in the interior of the appliance (choose correct setting of the thermostat knob).
