Energy Saving; Maintaining The Appliance - Eurofred KITCF 350 PROW BT Manual De Instrucciones

Install the Appliance Correctly
This means that the appliance should be installed away from
sources of heat or direct sunlight, in a well-ventilated room.
Correct Temperature Settings
Set the temperature knob to one of the medium settings. Very
low temperatures will not only consume a great deal of energy,
but will neither improve nor lengthen the storage life of the food.
Shut the Doors
Open your appliance only when strictly necessary – every time
you open the door most of the cold air will be lost. In order to
Before doing any cleaning, disconnect the appliance from
the electricity (by pulling out the plug or turning off the
general switch in your home).
WARNING: do not damage the refrigeration circuit.
Defrosting
It is a good idea to remove the frost build up from the inside of
the freezer from time to time.
Make sure not to use pointed metal objects to do so as this could
result in piercing the refrigeration circuits, causing irreparable
damage to the appliance. Use the plastic scraper provided with
the freezer.
To defrost the freezer completely (which should be done once or
twice a year), disconnect the appliance from the power supply
and leave the door open until all the frost has melted.
The freezer is fitted with a drain to lean the defrost water outside.
Let the water flow into a container as explained in the Fig. 1.
To speed up defrosting, one or more pots of warm water can be
placed inside the appliance.
The freezer does not cool well
Check if:
- The doors do not close properly or the seals are damaged.
- The doors are opened too frequently.
- The temperature adjustment knob is not in the correct position.
- The freezer has been over-filled.
- The atmospheric temperature of the area surrounding the
appliance is too low.
The Motor Runs Constantly
Check if:
- The thermostat is on the right setting.
- The doors do not close properly or the seals are damaged.
- The atmospheric temperature of the area surrounding the
appliance is too high.
The Appliance Makes Too Much Noise
Check if:
- The appliance is levelled.

restore the correct temperature, the motor will have to run and
consume energy.
Check the Door Seals
Keep the seals clean and pliable so that they fit closely against
the door to ensure that no cold air is lost.
Avoid Frost Build-up
Remember to check the freezer for frost. When the frost
becomes too thick, defrost the freezer immediately (See,
"Maintaining the Appliance").
While defrosting the freezer, it is a good idea to wrap the food
taken from the freezer in several layers of paper and place it in a
cool place. Since the temperature of the frozen food will
inevitably rise, it is best to consume it quickly as its storage life
will have been shortened.
Cleaning and Maintenance
The inside of the appliance should be cleaned on a periodic
basis. Only use a water and bicarbonate solution to clean the
appliance. Do not use abrasive cleaning products, detergents or
soap. After the inside has been cleaned, rinse well with clean
water and dry carefully.
Once the appliance has been cleaned, turn on the appliance,
following the instructions in "Setting Up The Appliance".
When not in use
Should the unit not be used for a long period of time (for example
during the summer holidays), disconnect the plug from the mains
and leave the door open to avoid the formation of mould and
unpleasant odours.
- The appliance has been installed between cabinets that vibrate
and make noise.
- It is the noise made by the refrigerant, which occurs even when
the compressor is off (this is not a defect).
Some of the external parts of the appliance become hot
- These raised temperatures are necessary in order to avoid the
formation of condensation on certain parts of the product.
If after the checks the appliance still does not operate or the
problem persists,

Number (SN). This information can be found on the data plate
located inside the appliance.
Never call on unauthorized technicians and always refuse
spare parts which are not originals.
