How to save energy

Avoid putting the appliance in a sunny place and
near anything that gives off heat.
Be sure that the condenser and the compressor
are well ventilated. Do not cover the sections where
ventilation is.
Wrap products in tightly closing dishes or cling film
to avoid building up unnecessary frost.
Do not leave the door open longer than necessary
and avoid unnecessary openings.
Put foods into the appliance only in a closed dish.
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. The appliance shall not be
discarded together with the urban refuse and rubbish.
Avoid damaging the cooling unit, especially at the rear
near the heat exchanger. Information on your local
disposal sites may be obtained from your municipal
authorities.
The materials used on this appliance marked with the
sympol are recyclable.
MaintenanceHints 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.

Defrosting

Bleeding part of the moisture of cooling chambers
in form of frost and ice goes with the operation of
the appliance.
Thick frost and ice has an insulating effect, so it
reduces cooling efficiency as the temperature
increases in the cooling chambers, they need more
energy, at a certain thickness it does not allow the
door of the freezing compartment to open.
At this type of appliance defrosting the cooling
plate of the refrigerator is automatic without any
external intervention.The thermostatic control
interrupts the operation of compressor at regular
intervals for more or less time during this cooling is
interrupted the temperature of the cooling plate
goes above 0 °C due to interior heating load of the
compartment, so defrosting occurs. When the
surface temperature of the cooling plate has
reached +3 - +4 °C the thermostatic control
restarts operation of the system.
Melting water flows through defrost water outlet
leaded through the back into the evaporative tray
maintained on the top of compressor and
evaporates due to its warmth.
Check and clean the outlet of melting
water coming during defrosting
regularly a label inside the appliance warns
you for this. If it is clogged the melting water
gathered can cause earlier failure as it can go
to the insulating of the appliance.
Clean the melting water outlet with the supplied
pipe scraper that can be seen in the figure. The
pipe scraper has to be stored in the outlet.
The most typical case of clogging up in the melting
water outlet when you put food wrapped in some
paper into the appliance and this paper contacts
back plate of the refrigerator and freezes to it. If you
remove the food right at this moment the paper will
tear and it can cause clogging up in the outlet by
getting into it. So you are asked to be careful -
because of the above - when placing foods
wrapped in paper into the appliance.
