damaged.

Caution: Fire risk

If the cooling

circuit is damaged:

-Avoid naked flames

and allsources of

inflammation.

whichthe appliance is

installed.

It is dangerous to change

the composition of this

model in any way

whatsoever.

Any damage to the power

cord may result in a short

circuit and/or

electrocution.

DISPOSAL

This symbol

indicates that this product

household waste.

Your appliance also

contains a great amount of

recyclable material. It is

marked with this label to

indicate the used

appliances must be

disposed of in certified

collection points.

Contact your town hall or

your retailer for the used

We thank you for your

help in protecting the

environment.

This appliance’s packing

materials are also

recyclable. Help recycle it

and protect the

environment by dropping it

off in the municipal

receptacles provided for

this purpose.

In accordance with the

most recent legislative

provisions applying to the

protection and respect for

the environment, your

appliance does not

contain any CFCs, but a

refrigerant called R600a.

The exact type of coolant

gas used in your

appliance is clearly shown

on the information plate

inside the fridge part of

your appliance, at the foot

of the left-hand side

panel. R600a is a non-

polluting gas that does

not harm the ozone layer

and hardly contributes to

the greenhouse effect at

all.

INSTALLING YOUR

APPLIANCE

Caution:

You

can only keep your food in

good condition and

optimise your energy

consumption by

x Avoid balconies,

verandasand patios,

becauseexcessively high

and lowtemperatures in

the summerand the

winter can preventyour

appliance from

functioning properly, or

evendamage it.

x Do not place the

appliancenear a source

of heat, suchas an oven

or a radiator.

x Leave at least 3 and 5

cmclear around the

sides and10 cm above

the appliance to

allow the air to circulate

freely.

x Place the appliance at

asuitable distance from

thewall using the

spacerscontained in the

bag ofaccessories.

x Your appliance is

designed to function

optimally at a given

ambienttemperature. In

this case, it issaid to be

designed for aparticular

"climate class". The

climate class is shown

on theID plate inside the

appliance,on the bottom

of the left handwall.

Beyond these

temperatures, the

performance of your

appliance may suffer.

Installation

Space Requirement

x Select a location without direct exposure to sunlight;

x Select a location with enough space for the refrigerator doors to open easily;

x Select a location with level (or nearly level) flooring;

x Allow sufficient space to install the refrigerator on a flat surface;

x Allow clearance to the right, left, back and top when installing. This will help

reduce power consumption and keep your energy bills lower.

x Keep at least 50mm gap at two sides and back.

Positioning

Install this appliance at a location where the ambient temperature corresponds to the climate class

indicated on the rating plate of the appliance:

Climate class

Ambient temperature

SN

+10° C to +32° C

N

+16° C to +32° C

ST

+16° C to +38° C

T

+16° C to +43° C

Location

The appliance should be installed well away from sources of heat such as radiators, boilers, direct

sunlight etc. Ensure that air can circulate freely around the back of the cabinet. To ensure best

performance, if the appliance is positioned below an overhanging wall unit, the minimum distance

between the top of the cabinet and the wall unit must be at least 100 mm. Ideally, however, the

appliance should not be positioned below overhanging wall units. Accurate levelling is ensured by one

or more adjustable feet at the base of the cabinet.

WARNING! It must be possible to disconnect the appliance from the mains power supply; the

plug must therefore be easily accessible after installation.

Electrical connection

Before plugging in, ensure that the voltage and frequency shown on the rating plate correspond to

your domestic power supply. The appliance must be earthed. The power supply cable plug is provided

with a contact for this purpose. If the domestic power supply socket is not earthed, connect the

appliance to a separate earth in compliance with current regulations, consulting a qualified electrician.

The manufacturer declines all responsibility if the above safety precautions are not observed. This

appliance complies with the E.E.C. Directives.

Daily Use

First use

Cleaning the interior

Before using the appliance for the first time, wash the interior and all internal accessories with

lukewarm water and some neutral soap so as to remove the typical smell of a brand new product, then

dry thoroughly.

Important! Do not use detergents or abrasive powders, as these will damage the finish.

Daily use

Freezing fresh food

x The freezer compartment is suitable for freezing fresh food and storing frozen and deep-frozen

food for a long time.

x Place the fresh food to be frozen in the bottom compartment.

x The maximum amount of food that can be frozen in 24 hours is specified on the rating plate.

x The freezing process lasts 24 hours: during this period do not add other food to be frozen.

Storing frozen food

When first starting-up or after a period out of use before putting the product in the compartment let the

appliance run at least 2 hours on the higher settings.

Important! In the event of accidental defrosting, for example the power has been off for longer than

WKHYDOXHVKRZQLQWKHWHFKQLFDOFKDUDFWHULVWLFVFKDUWXQGHU³ULVLQJWLPH´WKHGHIURVWHGIRRGPXVWEH

consumed quickly or cooked immediately and then re-frozen (after cooked).

Thawing

Deep-frozen or frozen food, prior to be used, can be thawed in the freezer compartment or at room

temperature, depending on the time available for this operation.

Small pieces may even be cooked still frozen, directly from the freezer. In this case, cooking will take

longer.

Helpful hints and tips

Hints for freezing

To help you make the most of the freezing process, here are some important hints:

x the maximum quantity of food which can be frozen in 24 hrs. is shown on the rating plate;

x the freezing process takes 24 hours. No further food to be frozen should be added during this

period;

x only freeze top quality, fresh and thoroughly cleaned, foodstuffs;

x prepare food in small portions to enable it to be rapidly and completely frozen and to make it

possible subsequently to thaw only the quantity required;

x wrap up the food in aluminium foil or polythene and make sure that the packages are airtight;

x do not allow fresh, unfrozen food to touch food which is already frozen, thus avoiding a rise in

temperature of the latter;

x lean foods store better and longer than fatty ones; salt reduces the storage life of food;

x water ices, if consumed immediately after removal from the freezer compartment, can possibly

cause the skin to be freeze burnt;

x it is advisable to show the freezing in date on each individual pack to enable you removal from the

freezer compartment, can possibly cause the skin to be freeze burnt;

x it is advisable to show the freezing in date on each individual pack to enable you to keep tab of the

storage time.
