English Warning! Any refrigerant spilling out can injure your eyes. In the event of eye contact with the refrigerant, wash your eyes instantiy under plenty of running water and call/consult a doctor (an eye specialist) immediately.. The appliance, according to its climate category, is meant for use at certain room temperatures. These temperatures should not be exceeded! The climate category for your particular appliance is marked on the rating plate. The categories are: name of climate suitable category room temperatures SN + 10°C bis + 32°C N + 16°C bis + 32°C ST + 18°C bis + 38°C T + 18°C bis + 43°C 4 The rating plate The rating plate with the technical data is affixed at the side on the inner wall or on the back of the appliance. Take a note of the technical data Copy here below the technical data from the rating plate so that it is easily accessible without having to move the appliance Model- / Type T Gross capacity Liter Net capacity Liter Operating voltage V / 50 Hz Maximum absorbed powe (W) Watt Safety fuse (A Amp Power consumption kWh/24h Freezing capacity kg/24h 5 Connecting up your appliance to the mains Your appliance must be connected only to a grounded Power socket which complies with relevant standards And has been installed by an authorised specislist. Before you plug in your appliance to the power socket, make absolutely sure that the voltage (V) and the safety fuse (A) for the main fuse box stated on the appliance's rating plate match your electrical supply. If these do not match, notify the nearest service department or your dealer immediately. The appliance must not inverse rectifier (e.g. solar panels). be connected up to an ■ The appliance is not to be connected to an inverter e.g. solar power panels. ■ The appliance is not to be connected via an extension cable. 6 Using your appliance a) Switching on / off and Selecting the Temperature Temperature dial (Thermostat) The temperature dial switches the appliance on and off and sets the cooling temperature Instruction for use Freezer b) Switching on the appliance: Turn the temperature controller clockwise. The appliance is switched on. ( Turn the controller only as far as the stop, otherwise it will be damaged) ■ The interior light is switched on (not fitted to all models ) ■ The compressor runs unril the set temperature is reached inside the appliance. ■ The internal temperature is shown in the display (not installed in all appliance models). c) Temperature settings: Turn dial left to lowest setting = slight cooling Turn dial right to highest setting = lowest temperature The temperature must be set according to: ■ he appliance's room temperature ■ quantity of stored food ■ how often the appliance is opened We recommend a medium setting. You will soon learn, through observation, which is the most suitable setting for your requirements. d) Switching off: Turn counterclockwise as far as the stop. the controller ■ Interior light in fridge compartment goes out ■ Compressor is switched off ■ The temperature display (where fitted) goes out 7 Freezer compartment The 3- star (***) or 4-star (*/***) freezer compartment is suitable for storing deep frozen food (already frozen food), for freezing and short-term (2-3 weeks) storage of small quantities of fresh food, also for preparing ice cubes and ice creams, sorbets etc. Be sure to comply with the producer's directives on the storage period for frozen food. ATTENTION! Freezer compartments with a 2-star designation (**) reach - 12℃ and colder. Freezer compartments with a 1-star designation (*) reach - 6℃ and colder. They are therefore not suitable for deep freezing and for the long-term storage of fresh food. However, depending on their type, fresh food or deep frozen food can be kept here for 3 to 5 days longer than in the fridge compartment. So-called ice compartments (no star designation) reach 0℃ and colder. They are the least suitable for freezing and long-term storage of food. However, all the above mentioned compartments are excellent for preparing ice cubes. The cooling temperature is set via the temperature controller. A temperature of - 15℃ is necessary to freeze fresh food and for the long-term storage of food. At this temperature the growth of micro-organisms is largely inhibited. Once the temperature rises above 10℃, 3
