The appliance is designed for the storage of food and beverages in household settings and similar environments. It is crucial to keep ventilation openings clear and to avoid using mechanical devices to hasten defrosting.

Operation

To operate, plug the appliance into an accessible wall socket and turn the temperature regulator to a medium setting. The appliance should be connected to a potable water supply if required.

Daily Use Tips

For optimal performance, do not store warm food or liquids that evaporate, cover foods with strong flavors, and ensure air circulation around items. Avoid opening the door more than necessary to conserve energy.

Care and Cleaning

Unplug the appliance before cleaning. Clean the inside with lukewarm water and neutral soap. Regularly examine and clean the defrost water drain hole to prevent overflow. Avoid using metal objects for cleaning.

Technical Data

The refrigerator dimensions are 1850 mm in height, 600 mm in width, and 660 mm in depth. It operates at 230 - 240 V with a frequency of 50 Hz.

Product Description

The refrigerator features glass shelves, a thermostat, door shelves, bottle shelves, a snack shelf, a vegetable drawer, and a rating plate. The temperature is automatically regulated and can be adjusted for optimal coldness.

First Use

Before first use, clean the interior and all accessories with lukewarm water and neutral soap to remove any odors from manufacturing. Ensure thorough drying.

Temperature Regulation

The temperature regulator can be set to lower for minimum coldness or higher for maximum coldness. A medium setting is usually suitable. If the refrigerator runs continuously, adjust the regulator to a warmer setting.

Defrost Water Drain Maintenance

Periodically clean the defrost water drain hole in the middle of the refrigerator compartment channel to prevent water overflow and potential dripping onto food.

Temperature Settings

Adjust the temperature regulator based on the ambient temperature and load of the appliance. If frost forms on the rear wall, set the dial to a higher temperature to allow automatic defrosting and reduce energy consumption.

Door Seal Check

Regularly check and clean the door seals to ensure they are free from debris and maintain a proper seal to prevent energy loss.
