Resumen del manual
When the red light has gone off, turn the thermostat down to the required level (recommended between 2-4) and switch off the fast freeze function. Please note: The appliance will work continuously until it comes down to the correct temperature. If the appliance is switched off, you should allow five minutes before switching it on again to prevent unnecessary damage to the compressor. Defrosting the fridge The fridge is self-defrosting. Any water created will run out of the fridge through the channel at the back of the fridge. It is important to keep the channel clear at all times. The defrosted water is collected in the evaporating tray at the back of the appliance. Use • Never put liquids in the refrigerator uncovered. • Never put hot foods in the refrigerator. Warm food should be allowed to cool to room temperature before being put into the refrigerator. • Nothing should rest against the rear wall of the refrigerator, as this will cause frost and possible condensation problems which will be difficult to remove. Setting the temperature Both compartment temperatures are regulated by the same thermostat dial, which is found to the right of the control panel at the top of the door frame when the fridge door is open. The thermostat can be moved between 1 (least cold) and 5 (coldest). Thermostat settings: 1-2 For short term storage of food 3-4 For long term storage of food For freezing fresh food. Once the food has been frozen, the thermostat should then be turned back to the required setting between 1 and 4. Fast freeze This appliance is supplied with a fast freeze function, which allows fresh food to be frozen more quickly. To select the fast freeze function, turn the switch, located in the top of the refrigerator compartment, to 1. To switch the fast freeze function off, turn the switch to 0. Please note that for better energy efficiency, the fast freeze function should be switched off when not required. If the ambient temperature is less than 10., then the fast freeze function can be used continuously to improve the performance of the appliance. However, if the ambient temperature is more than 10., then the fast freeze must be switched off when it is not required. To make best use of the fast freeze function, the middle two compartments should be used. Control panel The control panel for the fridge has three lights (Fig. 1): A. Orange Fast Freeze light This light is illuminated when the fast freeze function is on. B. Green Power light This light is illuminated when the power supply to appliance is on. C. Red Temperature Warning light This light is illuminated when the freezer compartment temperature is too warm. When this light is illuminated, switch on the fast freeze function until the red light goes out, then switch off the fast freeze function. Please note: If the red light is lit for more than 24 hours, switch off the fast freeze function and call CDA Customer Care. A B C fig. 1 Defrosting the freezer Do not use heaters or defrosting sprays in this appliance. • Never use any metallic or sharp objects to remove the ice as this could damage the lining. • The freezer compartment should be defrosted regularly to ensure the most efficient running of the freezer. • Once the ice is more than 5 mm thick, the freezer must be defrosted. • First remove the two lower freezer drawers. • To speed up the process, put a bowl of warm water in the base of the freezer compartment. The lower drawer is specially designed to facilitate the defrosting process. 1. Open the water drain cover which is at the back of the freezer, as in figure 1. 2. Pull the drain plug out, as in figure 2. This is found at the bottom of the freezer compartment. 3. Put the water drain cover underneath the drain plug, as shown in figure 3. This will allow the defrosted water to be collected in the drawer. 4. Empty the water from the drawer, and then replace the water drain cover and drain plug. Once defrosting is complete, dry the inside of the freezer compartment with a sponge or clean cloth. Use • The freezer compartments are designed to store only frozen food. • Never put hot or warm foods in the freezer, allow them to cool fully before putting them into the freezer. • Follow the instructions on the food packaging for storage of frozen food. If no information is provided, foods should not be stored for more than three months after the purchase date. Care and cleaning Always disconnect the appliance from the power before any cleaning or maintenance. • The refrigerator and freezer sections should be cleaned using a solution of bicarbonate of soda and lukewarm water. • Do not use abrasive products or detergents. After washing, rinse and dry thoroughly. • Clean the shelves and balconies separately by hand using soap and water. Do not put them in the dishwasher. • The evaporating tray and water drain hole (at the back of the refrigerator compartment) should be cleaned periodically to prevent the defrosted water from collecting inside the refrigerator...
