Therefore turn spacers correspondingly and fix them to the appliance. 46 Instructions for Use Description of the Appliance Refrigerator (A) Refrigerator is used for storing fresh foods for few days. pull it out, simply lift its rear part and pull it towards you. Warning! If the door contains storing shelves, install the rack in such position that the length of the bottles will not hinder the closing of the door. The rack may carry 9 bottles of 0, 75 l or more at the maximum (total weight max. 13 kg) ­ note the label underneath the thermostat box inside the appliance. Freezer (B) Freezer is used for freezing fresh foods and for storing already frozen foods. Shelf (1) Shelf can be optionally placed on the guides inside the appliance. If you want to remove it, slightly lift up the back part and pull it out. the coldest part of the shelves. Defrost Water Outlet (2) The interior of the refrigerator is cooled with cooling plate incorporated in the rear wall. Regularly check the defrost water outlet and the channel, because they should never be clogged (as for example with food rests). If clogged, use a plastic straw and clean it. Bottle rack (only some models have it) Bottle rack (number depends on model) is intended for storing the bottles. There are two installation positions available (horizontal or lifted in the front) thus enabling the positioning of bottles on the stopper as well. If you want to Fruit and Vegetable Container (3) The container is on the bottom under the glass shelf and is used mainly for storing fruits and vegetables. It provides adequate humidity which has favourable effect on food stored (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. Instructions for Use 47 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. If you remove the baskets, you can store frozen packages directly on the cooling shelves. 49 Instructions for Use Commercially Frozen Foods The storage time and the recommended temperature for storing commercially frozen foods are indicated on the packaging. When shopping, be careful and choose only adequately packed foods provided with complete data and stored in freezers where the temperature is not higher than -18°C. Do not buy packages of food covered with frost layer. Be careful that packages don't start to thaw, as the temperature raise reduces the quality of foods.

Cold air preserves the food but it does not destroy microorganisms which rapidly activate after defrosting and make foods perishable. Partial defrosting reduces the nutritional value of foods, especially of fruits, vegetables and readymade meals. Ice Making Recommended thermostat position for ice making is on the middle setting. Fill two thirds of the ice tray with cold water or any other liquid convenient for freezing. Time required for the ice to form, largely depends on ambient temperature, thermostat setting and on how often you open the door. It usually takes 2-6 hours (depends on which model of refrigerator you have). With smaller refrigerators we recommend you make a stock of ice cubes (store them in a separate plastic box). [. . . ] Avoid using defrosting sprays, as they may cause damage to the plastic parts and may be hazardous to health. Do not forget to clean also the defrost water receptacle above the refrigerator compressor (do not remove the receptacle). After cleaning, connect the appliance to power supply and reload the packages. Cleaning the Appliance Disconnect the power supply before cleaning the appliance. Do not use coarse or aggressive cleaning agents as you can damage the surface. Varnished surfaces are cleaned with soft cloth and an alcohol based cleaning agent (for example glass cleaners). [. . . ]
