User Manual for Faber Lusso 100BK and 151BK Refrigerator

Quick guide from the manual

This refrigerator is designed for household use. Before first use, ensure the unit is placed on a level, solid surface with adequate ventilation (30cm above, 5cm on sides and back). Operate the empty refrigerator for 2-3 hours (10 hours in summer) before storing food. Set the thermostat between 3 and 4 for normal operation.

Safety Instructions

• Electrical Safety: The appliance must be properly grounded. Do not use extension cables or inverters. If the power cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer or a qualified service agent.
• Child Safety: Keep children supervised. To prevent entrapment, remove doors and leave shelves in place before disposing of the unit.
• Usage Warnings: Do not use mechanical devices to accelerate defrosting. Keep ventilation openings clear. Do not store explosive substances like aerosol cans inside.

Installation

Ensure the ground is level, solid, and dry. Avoid placing the unit upside down or horizontally. The angle of inclination should not exceed 45 degrees. Keep the refrigerator away from heat sources like stoves or direct sunlight to maintain efficiency.

How to Use the Refrigerator

Thermostat Settings: Turn the thermostat dial to between 3 and 4 for standard cooling. For ice making, turn the dial to 7 after placing water in the ice tray.

Defrosting: Defrosting is required when frost on the evaporator reaches 3-4mm. To defrost:

1. Disconnect the power supply.
2. Open the door and remove all food and the ice tray.
3. Allow the frost to melt.
4. Wipe and dry the evaporator thoroughly before restarting.

Maintenance

Cleaning: Disconnect the power before maintenance. Do not use abrasive powders, detergents, sodium carbonate, benzene, petrol, or acid alcohol, as these can damage the paint and plastic.

Replacing the Lamp: Disconnect the power supply. Rotate the used bulb anticlockwise to remove it. Insert the new bulb by rotating clockwise. The replacement bulb must be a screw bulb of less than 15W.

Troubleshooting

If you encounter issues, check the following:

• No refrigeration: Check for power supply interruption, insufficient voltage, or a blown fuse.
• Insufficient cooling: Check thermostat position, ventilation space, door opening frequency, proximity to heat sources, or if the unit is overloaded with food.
• Food frozen inside: Check if the thermostat is set too high or if there is too much food stored.
• Unusual noises: Ensure the appliance is on a flat surface and not in contact with other items.
