The RAVANSON LKK-210RB contains flammable but environmentally friendly natural gas isobutane (R600a). Gas (R600a) is flammable. Before connecting, make sure that the refrigerant circuit is not damaged.

CAUTION! Flammable material – the risk of fire! Keep the device away from ignition sources.

If the refrigerant circuit is damaged, follow these steps:

– Avoid open flames.

– Immediately ventilate the room where the refrigerator is located.

The main components are:

1. Upper cover

2. Freezer compartment

3. Thermostat

4. Wine rack

5. Refrigerator compartment

6. Crisper drawer

7. Legs

8. Small bottle compartment

9. Shelf

10. Large bottle compartment

1. Remove all safety elements.

2. The refrigerator should be set on a level surface. Whenever required, adjust the level using the adjustable feet.

3. To ensure appropriate ventilation, position the fridge ensuring at least 10 cm distance from the back and sides, and at least 20 cm from the top to other objects. Leave enough space to open the fridge door to an angle of 160°.

4. The fridge should be placed far from any heat sources (cooker, radiator, stove) and should not be exposed to direct sunlight.

5. The fridge cannot be located near flammable or explosive materials such as gas, petrol, alcohol, etc. Do not store these materials in the fridge.

6. Do not place the fridge in areas with high moisture.

7. After setting the refrigerator in a suitable place, wait at least 2 hours before connecting it to the power supply.

8. Make sure that the power source meets the specifications on the nameplate. This device is equipped with a grounded type plug and must be plugged into a grounded type outlet. If power flickers occur, connect a special device to the fridge to control the power automatically.

9. The power cord should not be extended or wound when the device is on. Also, ensure the power cord is not placed too close to the compressor at the back, as the operating compressor generates high temperature and can damage the cord.

10. In case of accidental disconnection from the power supply, wait at least 5 minutes before restarting.

The RAVANSON LKK-210RB is controlled by a thermostat. In the “0” position, the refrigerator stops working. For positions “1 to 5”, the lower the setting, the higher the cooling temperature. The refrigerator should be set at a higher level for the user. The level “5” is suitable for fast freezing. After rapid freezing, it is recommended to bring the thermostat to its normal operating position.

Pour drinking water into the ice container and put it in the freezer. Set the thermostat knob to position 4/5.

It is recommended to keep food in sealed containers intended for contact with food, in order to prevent the influence of other odors.

Food should not be placed too closely to allow free air flow.

Do not put hot food in the refrigerator. Cool it to room temperature beforehand.

Minimize the frequency and time of opening the refrigerator door.

If food needs to be cleaned before putting it into the refrigerator, wash it, dry it, and then put it in the refrigerator.

If the ice layer inside the freezer gets about 3-5 cm thick, the device should be defrosted. To defrost, you should:

Set the thermostat to “0” and unplug the device.

Remove food from the freezer chamber.

Open the door to let the ice melt. To speed up the defrosting process, you can place a bowl with hot water on the shelf and close the door of the freezer.

Do not use metal tools or electric heaters to accelerate the defrosting process.

Remove water from the freezer with a soft cloth. Clean the device inside and outside using a soft, wet cloth with a neutral washing agent. Dry the chambers.

Do not pour water over the outer part of the refrigerator, as this can damage the insulation layer. It is forbidden to wash with hot water, acid, alkalis, gasoline, benzene, caustic means, alcohol, or abrasives.

After cleaning, place food back in the freezer, set the thermostat to the desired position, and plug in the device.

To ensure hygiene, clean the fridge interior with sufficient frequency. To do this:

Unplug the power cord from the electrical outlet.

Wash with a soft damp cloth with a neutral detergent.

Dry afterwards.

Pay special attention to keep the rubber seals at the door in the appropriate condition. They should always be clean.

If the device is not used for an extended period, remove food, clean the fridge and freezer chamber, and dry them. The door should remain open.

Before replacing the light bulb, set the thermostat knob to the “0” position and disconnect the refrigerator from the power supply. Remove the food from the top shelf and pull the shelf forward. The bulb is located at the rear of the thermostat housing. Open the light cover. Twist off the burnt bulb, twist in a new one, and replace the bulb cover.

Laudable sound of running water is normal for a working compressor.

Laudable tapping is a reaction to sudden changes of temperature.

Hot compressor – during operation, the compressor’s temperature can reach 90°C.

Hot side wall of the refrigerator – during operation, both sides of the refrigerator can achieve an average temperature of 55°C.

Brumous deposit (condensation) on the outer part of the refrigerator is normal due to high humidity. The refrigerator should be dried.

Before calling for service, check the following:

– The thermostat knob is not set to “0”.

– A plug is well inserted into the socket.

– The power supply is on.

– The device starts working within 5 minutes after the last power off.

If your refrigerator is not working effectively, check for the following possible causes:

– Too much food in the fridge or food arranged too tightly, which prevents air flow.

– The device is set in the sun or the ambient temperature is too high.

– The fridge is located near a radiator or other heat-emitting devices.

– Food in the refrigerator/freezer is too warm.

– The door of the refrigerator/freezer is not closed.

– Frequent opening of the door of the refrigerator/freezer.

– Fridge ventilation is insufficient. There can be an insufficient distance between the fridge and the surrounding walls/furniture/other devices.

If food is too chilled, it may be due to:

– The position of the thermostat is too high.

– Food with high water content was placed directly over the cold air inlets. This is not a symptom of incorrect device operation.

If the appliance is too noisy, check the following:

– The device is not level.

– The device touches the wall.

WARNING! If an electric shock (tingling) is sensed after touching the refrigerator-freezer housing, immediately turn it off and ask a certified electrician to check the protective circuit in the socket.

Transport (carry) only in a vertical position. A tilt should not exceed 45°. Transport in a package protecting from humidity, dust, and mechanical damages.
