may cause more noise for a short time 

when it is first activated. 

Bubbling noise and splashing 

occurs:

 Due to the flow of the 

refrigerant in the tubes of the system.

Water flowing noise occurs:

 Due 

to water flowing to the evaporation 

container. This noise is normal during 

defrosting.

There is water in the lower part of the 

refrigerator 

Check if:

The drain hole for the water is not clogged 

(use defrost drain plug to clean the drain 

hole).

Recommendations

• 

If the appliance is switched off or 

unplugged, wait at least 5 minutes before 

plugging the appliance in or restarting 

it in order to prevent damage to the 

compressor.

• 

The cooling unit of your refrigerator is 

located at the rear of the appliance. 

Therefore, water droplets or ice may 

form on the rear surface of your fridge 

due to the operation of the compressor 

at specified intervals. This is normal, 

there is no need to perform a defrosting 

operation unless there is excessive ice.

• 

If you do not intend to use your fridge for 

a long period of time (such as during the 

summer holidays), set the thermostat to 

“•” position, defrost and clean your fridge, 

leaving the door open to prevent the 

formation of mildew and odour.

• 

If a problem persists after you have 

followed all the above instructions, 

please consult the nearest authorised 

service centre.

• 

The appliance you have purchased is 

designed for domestic use only. It is not 

suitable for commercial or common use. 

If the consumer uses the appliance in a 

way that does not comply with this, we 

emphasise that the manufacturer and 

the dealer will not be responsible for any 

repair and failure within the guarantee 

period.

8 TIPS FOR SAVING ENERGY

1.  Install the appliance in a cool, well-

ventilated room, but not in direct sunlight 

and not near a heat source (such as a 

radiator or oven) otherwise an insulating 

plate should be used.

2.  Allow warm food and drinks to cool 

before placing them inside the appliance.

3.  Place thawing food in the refrigerator 

compartment. The low temperature 

of the frozen food will help cool the 

refrigerator compartment while the food 

is thawing. This will save energy. Frozen 

food left to thaw outside of the appliance 

will result in a waste of energy.

4.  Drinks or other liquids should be 

covered when inside the appliance. If 

left uncovered, the humidity inside the 

appliance will increase, therefore the 

appliance uses more energy. Keeping 

drinks and other liquids covered helps 

preserve their smell and taste.

5.  Avoid keeping the doors open for long 

periods and opening the doors too 

frequently as warm air will enter the 

appliance and cause the compressor to 

switch on unnecessarily often.

6.  Keep the covers of the different 

temperature compartments (such as the 

crisper and chiller) closed.

7.  The door gasket must be clean and 

pliable. In case of wear, if your gasket 

is detachable, replace the gasket. If not 

detachable, you have to replace the 

door.
