9.Remove the covers 9 from the doors of the refrigeration compartment and the freezer compartment and place them in the apertures on the other side.

10.Hang the freezer compartment door on the axle of bracket 2.

11.Turn bracket 4 around 180° together with the washers on the axle and the plastic spacer,

transferring the washers to the axle on the other side of the bracket. Once the bracket is attached to the freezer compartment door,

fix it in place on the	other side of the
refrigerator.

12.Hang the refrigeration compartment door on the axle of bracket 4.

13.Turn the bracket 6 around 180° together with the washers on the axle and the plastic spacer. Remove the axle and the

washers and reattach them on the other side of the bracket. Once the bracket 6 is attached to

the refrigeration compartment door,fix it in place on the other side of the refrigerator in the uppermost apertures. Use the covers c to cover the bracket and the remaining space.

14.Remove the bolt covers a and the stoppers b. Remove the screws that hold the handles in

place. Move the handles to the o t h e r side and screw them in place. Place the stoppers into the remaining apertures in the door, and

TEMPERATURE REGULATION

Thetemperatureintherefrigeratorcompartment is controlled using the thermostat knob (fig. 1) by turning it to one side or the other. The temperature indication in digits is shown beside the thermostat knob.

The temperature is regulated on the scale of seven digits.

0= Compressor is switched off. WARNING!

Electric current is not switched off.

1 = highest temperature (lowest cooling)

7 = lowest temperature (highest cooling)

If food products in the refrigerator compartment

are too cold, set the thermostat knob to 1, 2 or 3. If food products in the refrigerator compartment are not being chilled sufficiently, set the thermostat knob to 4, 5 or 6.

!Please set the desired temperature in the appliance according to your own requirements.

!THE TEMPERATURE IN THE REFRIGERATOR COMPARTMENT MAY VARY DEPENDING ON AMBIENT TEMPERATURE, THE AMOUNT OF FOODSTUFFS, THE TEMPERATURE OF THE FOODSTUFFS, AND HOW OFTEN THE APPLIANCE DOOR IS OPENED AND CLOSED. Therefore we recommend:

• locate the appliance away from heat sources,

• food placed in the appliance should not be warmer than the room temperature,

• appliance door must not to be left open,

• the appliance door should not be open longer than it is necessary to take out or put in foodstuffs.

!IF THE ROOM IS COOL, THE APPLIANCE COOLS LESS. THE TEMPERATURE IN THE APPLIANCE MAY THEREFORE RISE. Use the thermostat wheel to set a lower temperature.

STORAGE OF FOODSTUFFS IN THE REFRIGERATOR COMPARTMENT

The refrigerator compartment is intended for the short-term storage of fresh foodstuffs.

•Do not put hot foodstuffs in the refrigerator compartment – they must be cooled down to room temperature.

•Strictly observe the foodstuff validity time indicated by the manufacturer on the product packaging.

DEFROSTING OF THE REFRIGERATOR COMPARTMENT

The refrigerator compartment defrosts automatically. Drops of ice that form on the back wall of the refrigeration compartment thaw during the time the compressor is not working and the thaw water runs down the thaw water runoff channel to the tray on top of the compressor 27 (Fig. 1), where it evaporates.
