Storing fresh food in the refrigerator Proper use of the appliance, adequately packed food, correct temperature and hygienic precautions produce substantial impact on the quality of stored food. Always respect the best before date, printed on the packaging. Food to be stored in the refrigerator should be properly packed as to prevent emission and/or reception of moisture and odors. Never store inflammable, volatile or explosive substances.
Interior accessories and space distribution Equipment depends on the model. • Shelves can be optionally placed on the guides • • • • • • • 142444 20 inside the appliance. They are protected against pulling out. To remove the shelf, slightly lift up the back part and pull it out. Quickly perishable food should be stored on the back i.e. the coldest part of the shelves.
• Cool water dispenser (available only in certain models on the exterior side of the door) is used for pouring cool water without opening the refrigerator door. Installation: take the tap with pipes from the attached bag and cork the plastic water bottle (1,5 l). Remove the bag from the pipe coupled to the pump and connect it with the tap pipe by pressing one pipe into the other (minimum coverage 10 mm).
Storing of food in the ZERO’N’FRESH drawer The ZERO’N’FRESH drawer provides storage of wide selection of fresh food approximately three times longer than in the traditional refrigerator. Food remains fresh for long time and it preserves its taste and nutritive ingredients. It reduces decay and loss of mass, so fruit and vegetables are more fresh and natural. Storage temperature is around 0°C (preset). Temperature may vary between -2°C and +3°C, depending on the temperature variation within the refrigerator.
Food Storage period Meat: sausages, cold cuts, beef, pork, venison, raw meat up to 7 days poultry up to 5 days fish up to 4 days seafood up to 3 days Vegetables: cabbage, garlic, carrots up to 180 days celery, herbs up to 30 days lettuce, cauliflower, chicory, rhubarb up to 21 days Brussels sprouts, asparagus, kale, Chinese cabbage, turnips, radish up to 14 days onions, mushrooms, spinach, peas up to 7 days Fruit: apples up to 180 days pears, kiwi up to 120 days grapes, quince up to
Defrosting the appliance Automatic defrosting 142444 24 The appliance needs no special defrosting procedure, because ice deposited at the inner back wall is defrosted automatically. Ice deposited on the inner back wall during the compressor operation is defrosted when the compressor stops operating, and condensed water drops are drained through the outlet in the inner back wall into the drain pan situated above the compressor where it evaporates.
Cleaning 142444 Prior any cleaning attempt disconnect the appliance from the mains (pull the power cord from the mains wall outlet). Special antibacterial protection in top layer of inner walls prevents multiplication of bacteria and maintains the interior clean and germ free. Make sure to remove traces of any cleansing agents you had been using. • Clean the exterior of the appliance with water and liquid detergent.
Troubleshooting guide Fault: Cause/Remedy The appliance does not operate after connection to the mains: • Check if there is power in the socket and if the appliance is switched on. Cooling system operates continuously without intermittent stoppages: • Ambient temperature too high. • Frequent opening of the door, door open too long. • Door not closed properly (particle between door gasket, sagged door, check gasket sealing, etc...). • Excessive quantity of fresh food inserted at once.
Fault: Cause/Remedy Difficult door opening: • If you want to open the immediately closed door, you may experience trouble in doing so. This happens because certain quantity of cold air escapes from the appliance through the open door and is replaced by warm ambient air. Cooling of such air creates negative pressure (vacuum) and suction, which prevents easy opening of the door. Situation is normalized after a few minutes, and you can open the door with ease.
Noise level The refrigerator - freezer appliances are cooled by the refrigeration system with a compressor, whose operation may produce certain noise. The level of such noise depends upon the location, correct use and age of the appliance. • After starting the appliance, the operation of the compressor (the refrigerant flow) may be somewhat louder. This does not mean that something is wrong with the appliance, neither has it any influence on the lifetime of the appliance.
