INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

 Before Using Your Appliance

• Remove the exterior and interior packing.

• Check to be sure you have all of the following parts:

• 3 Door Bins

• 1 Bottle Bin

• 3 Refrigerator shelves

• 1 Freezer shelf

• 2 Crispers

• 1 Glass Crisper Cover

• 1 Ice Cube Tray

• Instruction Manual

• Before connecting the appliance to the power source, let it stand upright for approximately 2

hours. This will reduce the possibility of a malfunction in the cooling system from handling

during transportation.

• Clean the interior surface with lukewarm water using a soft cloth.

• In case the interior accessories are not correctly placed, rearrange them as described in

chapter “Parts and Features”

 Installation of Your Appliance

• Place your appliance on a floor that is strong enough to support the appliance when it is fully

loaded. To level your appliance, adjust the legs at the front of the appliance.

• Allow 5 inches of space between the back and sides of the appliance, which allows the proper

air circulation to cool the compressor.

• Locate the appliance away from direct sunlight and sources of heat (stove, heater, radiator,

etc.). Direct sunlight may affect the acrylic coating and heat sources may increase electrical

consumption. Extreme cold ambient temperatures may also cause the appliance not to

perform properly.

• Avoid locating the appliance in moist areas. Too much moisture in the air will cause frost to

form quickly on the evaporator requiring more frequent defrosting of the appliance.

ELECTRICAL CONNECTION

This appliance should be properly grounded for your safety. The power cord of this appliance is

equipped with a three-prong plug which mates with standard three prong wall outlets to minimize the

possibility of electrical shock.

Do not under any circumstances cut or remove the third ground prong from the power cord supplied.

For personal safety, this appliance must be properly grounded.

This appliance requires a standard 115/120 Volt AC ~/60Hz electrical ground outlet with three-prong.

Have the wall outlet and circuit checked by a qualified electrician to make sure the outlet is properly

grounded. When a standard 2-prong wall outlet is encountered, it is your responsibility and obligation

to have it replaced with a properly grounded 3-prong wall outlet.

The cord should be secured behind the appliance and not left exposed or dangling to prevent

accidental injury.

The appliance should always be plugged into its own individual electrical outlet which has a voltage

rating that matches the rating label on the appliance. This provides the best performance and also

prevent overloading house wiring circuits that could cause a fire hazard from overheated. Never

unplug the appliance by pulling the power cord. Always grip the plug firmly and pull straight out from

the receptacle. Repair or replace immediately all power cords that have become frayed or otherwise

damaged. Do not use a cord that shows cracks or abrasion damage along its length or at either end.

When moving the appliance, be careful not to damage the power cord.

 EXTENSION CORD

Because of potential safety hazards under certain conditions, it is strongly recommended that you do

not use an extension cord with this appliance. However, if you must use an extension cord it is

absolutely necessary that it be a UL/CUL-Listed, 3-wire grounding type appliance extension cord

having a grounding type plug and outlet and that the electrical rating of the cord be 115 volts and at

least 10 amperes.

 SURGE PROTECTOR

Most electrical appliances use a series of electric control boards to operate. These boards are very

susceptible to power surges and could be damaged or destroyed.

If the appliance is going to be used in an area or if your city / country is prone to power surges /

outages; it is suggested that you use a power surge protector for all electrical devices / appliances

you use. The surge protector that you select must have a surge block high enough to protect the

appliance it is connected to. If you have any questions regarding the type and size of surge protector

needed contact a licensed electrician in your area.

Damages due to power surges are not considered a manufacturer covered defect and will void your

product warranty.

REVERSING THE DOOR SWING OF YOUR APPLIANCE

This refrigerator-freezer has the capability of the doors opening from either the left or right side. The

unit is delivered to you with the doors opening from the left side. Should you desire to reverse the

opening direction, please call service for reversal instructions.

Warning

Improper use of the grounded plug can result in the risk of electrical shock. If the power cord is

damaged, have it replaced by an authorized Avanti Products service center.

OPERATING YOUR APPLIANCE

 Temperature Control

• Your appliance has only one control for regulating the

temperature in the fresh food and the freezer compartment.

The temperature control is located on the upper right hand

side of the fresh food section.

• The range of the temperature control is from position"1" the

warmest to "7" the coldest.

• The first time you turn the unit on set the temperature control

to “7” or the max-position.

• After 24 to 48 hours, adjust the temperature control to the setting that best suites your needs.

The setting of “4 - 5” should be correct for home or office appliance use.

• Changes of the ambient temperature affect temperature in the interior of the appliance

(choose correct setting of the thermostat knob).

• To turn the thermostat off, turn the temperature control to "0".

NOTE:

 Turning the temperature control to "0" position stops the cooling cycle but does not shut

off the power to the appliance.

 If the unit is unplugged, power lost, or turned off; you must wait 3 to 5 minutes before

restarting the unit. If you attempt to restart before this time delay, the appliance will not

start.

 Interior Light

When you open the door the light will be ON automatically. When you close the door the

light will turn OFF automatically.

 Defrosting Your Appliance

• When? For the most efficient operation and minimum energy consumption, defrost the

appliance compartment when the frost on the appliance walls is excessive or ¼ inch thick.

There is no need to defrost the refrigerator, because ice depositing on the inner back wall is

defrosted automatically. Ice is depositing on the inner back wall during the compressor

operation; later on, when the compressor is not operating ice is defrosting and water drops

collect and drain through the outlet in the inner back wall into the drain pan situated above the

compressor, from where it evaporates.

• How?

CAUTION

Do not use boiling water because it may damage the plastic parts. In addition, never

use a sharp or metallic instrument to remove frost as it may damage the cooling coils

and will void the warranty. We recommend using the plastic scraper.

• Reset the thermostat to “0” position and disconnect the power supply.

• Remove the frozen food from the appliance and place it in a cooler to protect the food.

• Leave the door open for a while so that you can easy scrape off the frost.

• Use a plastic scraper but be careful not to damage the inner surfaces of the freezer.

• Wipe up the scraped frost and ice before it is completely defrosted.

 Freezer Compartment

• Proper use of the appliance, adequately packed food, correct temperature and taking into

account hygienic precautions will substantially influence the quality of freezing the food or

string of the frozen foods.

• Carefully select food you intend to freeze; it should be of adequate quality and suitable for

freezing.

• Use correct packaging and wrap it right.

• The packaging should be airtight and shouldn’t leak since this could cause substantial vitamin

loss and dehydration of foods.

• Foils and bags should be soft enough to tightly wrap around the foods.

• When preparing foods to be frozen, consider sanitary precautions.

• Mark packages with following data: kind and amount of foods and the date of loading.

• It is most Important that the food is frozen as quickly as possible.

• If the loading amount is too large, the quality of freezing is reduced which affects the quality of

frozen foods.

CARE AND MAINTENANCE

 Cleaning Your Appliance

• Turn the temperature control to "0", unplug the appliance, and remove the food, shelves, and

trays.

• Wash the inside with warm water and baking soda solution. The solution should be about 2

tablespoons of baking soda to a quart of water.

• Wash the shelves and trays with a mild detergent solution. Plastic parts cannot be washed in

a dishwasher.

• The outside of the appliance should be cleaned with mild detergent and warm water.

• The condenser coils should be vacuumed when they are dusty or dirty.

• Clean the drain pan on the refrigerator compressor. Do not remove the drain pan.

• After cleaning, connect the appliance to power supply and reload the packages.

 Maintenance of Your Appliance

 Changing the Light Bulb

• Unplug the AC power cord from the wall.

• Remove the screw that holds the light bulb cover.

• Remove the light bulb cover.

• Unscrew the bulb.

• Replace with a 10 watts bulb that is the same shape and size.

• Replace the light bulb cover

 Power Failure

Most power failures are corrected within a few hours and should not affect the temperature of

your appliance if you minimize the number of times the door is opened. If the power is going to be

off for a longer period of time, you need to take the proper steps to protect your food.

 Vacation Time

During long absences, remove all the food; unplug your appliance, clean your appliance, and

leave the door slightly open to avoid possible formation of condensation, mold, or odors.

 Moving Your Appliance

• Remove all the food.

• Securely tape down all loose items inside your appliance.

• Turn the leveling screws up to the base to avoid damage.

• Tape the doors shut.

• Be sure the appliance stays in the upright position during transportation.

 Energy Saving Tips

• The appliance should be located in the coolest area of the room, away from heat producing

appliances or heating ducts, and out of the direct sunlight.

• Let hot foods cool to room temperature before placing in the appliance. Overloading the

appliance forces the compressor to run longer. Foods that freeze too slowly may lose quality, or

spoil.

• Be sure to wrap foods properly, and wipe containers dry before placing them in the appliance.

This cuts down on frost build-up inside the appliance.

• Appliance storage bin should not be lined with aluminum foil, wax paper, or paper toweling.

Liners interfere with cold air circulation, making the appliance less efficient.

• Organize and label food to reduce door openings and extended searches. Remove as many

items as needed at one time, and close the door as soon as possible.

• Try not to open the door too often, especially when the weather is wet and hot.

• Every so often check if the appliance is sufficiently ventilated.

• Ice and frost layer increase energy consumption, so clean the appliance as soon as the layer is

¼” thick.

• El termostato automáticamente regula la temperature interna en el compartimiento del

refrigerador y del congelador. Para obtener temperaturas más frías debe girar el dial del

termostato desde la posición 1 a la posición 7.

• Para la conservación de alimentos en el compartimiento del congelador durante un corto período

de tiempo, puede colocar el dial del termostato entre la posición 4 y 5.

• Para la conservación de alimentos en el compartimiento del congelador durante un período largo

de tiempo, puede colocar el dial del termostato en la posición 4-5.

• Tenga en cuenta; que la temperatura ambiente, la temperatura de la comida almacenada y la

frecuencia con que se abra la puerta del aparato, afectan a la temperatura en el compartimiento

del refrigerador. Si fuera necesario, modifique la temperatura seleccionada según sea el caso.

DISPOSICION DE LOS ALIMENTOS

COMPARTIMIENTO DEL REFRIGERADOR

• Para reducir el grado de humedad y el consecuente aumento de la formación de escarcha, no

coloque nunca líquidos en recipientes sin cerrar dentro del refrigerador. La escarcha tiende a

concentrarse en las partes más frías de congelador y con el tiempo necesitará realizar el proceso

de descongelamiento cada vez con mayor frecuencia.

• No introduzca nunca comida caliente en el refrigerador. La comida caliente debería dejarse

enfriar a temperatura ambiente y colocarse dentro del refrigerador de forma que garantice la

circulación de aire adecuada dentro del compartimiento.

• Deberá evitar que cualquier producto esté en contacto con la pared trasera del aparato, ya que

produciría escarcha y los empaques podrían quedarse pegados a la pared. No abra la puerta del

refrigerador con demasiada frecuencia.

• Coloque la carne y el pescado limpio (envuelto en paquetes o en papel plastificado) que usará en

los próximos 1-2 días, en la parte inferior del compartimiento refrigerado (encima del

compartimiento para verduras), ya que ese es el lugar más fresco y garantizará las mejores

condiciones de conservación.

• Puede colocar las frutas y verduras en el cajón correspondiente, sin necesidad de envolverlas.

Compartimiento del Congelador

• La función del compartimiento del congelador consiste en almacenar alimentos congelados

durante largos períodos de tiempo, además de hacer cubitos de hielo.

• Para congelar alimentos frescos, asegúrese que la mayor superficie posible del alimento a

congelar esté en contacto con la superficie del congelador.

• No introduzca alimentos frescos junto a los alimentos ya congelados, pegados unos a otros, pues

los alimentos congelados podrían ablandarse o derretirse.

• Cuando congele alimentos frescos (como carne o pescado), divídalos en paquetes que

contengan la cantidad que vaya a consumir cada vez.

• Una vez que la unidad ha sido descongelada coloque los alimentos de nuevo en el congelador y

recuerde que debe consumirlos a la mayor brevedad posible.

• No introduzca nunca comida caliente en el compartimiento del congelador, ya que padría

estropear los alimentos congelados.

• Para almacenar los alimentos congelados: se recomienda siempre seguir atentamente las

instrucciones que aparecen en el empaquetamiento de alimentos congelados y en caso de no

tener información concreta al respecto, no almacene nunca los alimentos durante más de 3

meses a partir de la fecha de compra.

• Cuando compre alimentos congelados asegúrese que hayan sido congelados a la

temperatura adecuada y de que el empaque está intacto.

• Se recomienda transportar los alimentos congelados en recipientes adecuados para mantener la

calidad de los alimentos, además de colocarlos en el congelador a la mayor brevedad posible.

• Si un paquete que contiene alimentos congelados muestra signos de humedad y presenta un

aspecto anormalmente hinchado, es probable que previamente haya sido almacenado a una

temperatura inapropiada y que el contenido del paquete se haya deteriorado.

• El período de conservación de los alimentos congelados depende de la temperatura

ambiental, posición del dial del termostato, de la regularidad con que se abra la puerta del

refrigerador, tipo de alimentos y tiempo necesario para transportar el producto desde la tienda

hasta su hogar. Siga siempre las instrucciones impresas en el empaque del producto y no

exceda nunca el período máximo de conservación indicado.

• Si quiere volver a abrir la puerta del refrigerador inmediatamente después de haberla cerrado, se

producirá un vacío (debido al cambio de temperaturas) y la puerta no se abrirá con facilidad. Es

normal. Después de alcanzar la temperatura adecuada en su interior, la puerta se podrá abrir

facilmente.

LIMPIEZA Y MANTENIMIENTO

• Desenchufe el aparato de la toma de corriente antes de empezar a limpiarlo.

• No limpie el refrigerador echándole agua a chorro encima.

• Se recomienda limpiar el compartimiento del refrigerador periodicamente con una solución de

bicarbonato de sodio.

• Limpie los accesorios por separado con agua y jabón. No meta los accesorios en el lavavajillas.

• No utilise productos, detergentes o jabones abrasivos. Cuando haya terminado de limpiar el

aparato, pásele un trapo humedo y séquelo cuidadosamente. Cuando haya terminado el proceso

de limpieza vuelva a conectar el enchufe del refrigerador, con las manos bien secas.

• Se recomienda realizar la limpieza del condensador con un cepillo al menos dos veces al año

con el fin de ahorrar energía y de incrementar la productividad.

ELIMINACION DE LA ESCARCHA

COMPARTIMIENTO DEL REFRIGERADOR

• Mientras el refrigerador está en funcionamiento el proceso de eliminación de la escarcha se

produce automáticamente; el agua resultante de la descongelación se recoge en la cubeta y se

evapora automáticamente.

• Se recomienda limpiar periodicamente la cubeta de drenaje así como el agujero que funciona

como vertedero del agua descongelada con el instrumento destinado a tal efecto, para prevenir

así que el agua se almacene en la parte inferior del refrigerador en lugar de ser expulsada.

• Puede además verter medio vaso de agua en el vertedero para limpiar su interior.

COMO REEMPLAZAR EL BOMBILLO

Para reemplazar el bombillo del compartimiento del refrigerador

1. Desenchufe el aparato del tomacorriente.

2. Presione los ganchos que encontrará a ambos lados de la parte superior y inferior de la

cubierta, para así quitar dicha cubierta o tapa.

3. Reemplace el bombillo usado por otro cuya capacidad no sea superior a 10 W.

TRANSPORTE Y CAMBIO DE POSICION

COMO CAMBIAR LA DIRECCION DE APERTURA DE LA PUERTA

En caso de que necesite cambiar el lado de apertura de la puerta, por favor consulte al servicio pos-

venta de su localidad.

Transporte y Cambio De Posición

• El empaque original y la espuma de poliestireno pueden cubrirse si así se desea.

• Durante el transporte el aparato deberá mantenerse siempre atado con una cinta ancha o con

una cuerda resistente. Durante el transporte, deberá seguir las normas que aparecen en la caja

de cartón.

• Antes de transportar el aparato o de cambiar su posición, todos los objetos movibles (como

bandejas, cajones para las verduras...) deberían extraerse del aparato o fijarse con cinta

adhesiva para evitar su movimiento.

ANTES DE LLAMAR AL SERVICIO TECNICO

Si su refrigerador no funciona correctamente, puede deberse a un problema de poca importancia, por

lo tanto compruebe lo que viene a continuación antes de llamar a un electricista; así podrá ahorrar

tiempo y dinero.

Que hacer si su refrigerador no funciona;

Compruebe:

• No se ha producido una falla en el suministro de corriente.

• El interruptor general de su hogar no está desconectado.

• El dial del termostato no está en la posición “0”.

• El tomacorriente se encuentra en perfectas condiciones. Para comprobarlo, conecte otro

aparato que sepa que funciona bien en ese tomacorriente.

Que hacer si el refrigerador funciona mal:

Compruebe;

• No ha sobrecargado el aparato.

• Las puertas están perfectamente cerradas.

• No hay polvo acumulado en el condensador.

• Hay espacio suficiente en la parte trasera.

Si se produce ruido:

El gas refrigerante que circula por el circuito del refrigerador puede producir un ligero ruido ( un

sonido burbujeante) incluso cuando el compresor no está funcionando. No debe preocuparse por

eso, ya que es perfectamente normal. Si los ruidos fuesen diferentes, compruebe que:

• El refrigerador está bien nivelado.

• No hay ningún producto en contacto con la parte trasera.

• Los elementos y accesorios del aparato no están vibrando.

Si encuentra agua en la parte inferior del refrigerador;

Compruebe que;

El vertedero por el que se extrae el agua descongelada no está obstruído. (Utilise el instrumento

destinado para limpiar el agujero).

RECOMENDACIONES

• Con el fin de aumentar el espacio disponible y mejorar su aspecto, la “sección de enfriado” de

este aparato se encuentra situada dentro de la pared posterior del compartimiento del

refrigerador. Mientras el aparato esté funcionando, esta pared estará cubierta con escarcha o

gotas de agua, dependiendo de si el compresor está funcionando o no. No debe preocuparse por

eso. Es perfectamente normal. Deberá descongelar el aparato solamente si se forma una capa

espesa en la pared trasera.

• Si no va a usar el refrigerador durante un período de tiempo prolongado (por ejemplo,

durante las vacaciones de verano), ponga el dial del termostato del compartimiento que va a

desconectar (normalmente el compartimiento del refrigerador) en la posición”0”. Descongele y

limpie el refrigerador, y deje la puerta abierta para evitar la formacion de moho y la producción de

malos olores.

• Para apagar totalmente el aparato, desconéctelo del tomacorriente (para realizar la limpieza y

cuando se dejen las puertas abiertas).
