ning the adjustable feet in order to avoid vibrations
and noises.
This is a built in design to be aligned with other fur-
niture.
The appliance must be located in places of maxi-
mum temperature as follows:
+ 32°C for N Class, classification on identifiying
plate.
+ 43°C for T Class, classifiction on identifiying plate.
If the temperatures are higher than these both above
mentioned, the functions of appliance coud result
reduced.
Cleaning the interior
Do not use alcohol or any cleanig product contai-

If you wish to change the opening side of the doors
proceed as follows:
Remove the handles of the doors, if they are side
fixing by screws.
Take off the plinth pressed on to.
Remove the inferior hing taking care for the downer
door not to fall off.
Lift the downer door off the central hing.
Disassemble the lower hing reinforcement «Z».
Remove the central hinge taking care for the upper
door not to fall off and not to lose the plastic spacer.
Take the upper door off the upper hinge. Be carefull
not to lose the plastic ring.
Unscrew the plastic bolts of the opposite side of the
place of the central hinge taken out and introduce
them in the holes occupied before by the hinge.
Unscrew the axe of the upper hinge and screw it to
the hinge on the opposite side. Make sure to fit in
the metal spacer for blocking.
Place upper door.
Assemble the lower hinge reinforcement in the oppo-
site side it was situated.
For the remaining parts proceed the other way round.
Once finished make sure that all joints close per-

HOW TO USE YOUR REFRIGERATOR-FREEZER
GB
Freezer Compartment:
This freezer, marked , is suitable for fre-
ezing food and permits long term storage of frozen
food. The appliance must be connected for at least 3
hours before introducing food.
Freezing of food:
Place food on the upper grill.
Maintain food for at least 24 hours in that position.
The maximum quantity to be frozen within 24 hours
is shown on the «Rating Plate», depending on the
model.
Conservation of frozen food:
For a safe storage of food the temperature inside
should never rise above - 18°C.
An ajustable thermostat is regulating this temperature
automatically.
Make sure the «Temperature Regulator» is on a
medium setting.
However, it may sometimes be necessary (due to poor
ventilation, high room temperature, frequent opening
of the door) to graduate the setting of the
«Temperature Regulator».
In case of an accidental stop of the appliance or a
power cut proceed as follows:
Keen the doors closed at all events.
Try to find out for how long the failure will continue.
Once reestablished to normality:
A) If the freezer is fully loaded and the power failure
is less than time indicated on the «Rating Plate»
no damage has been done to the food stored.
B) If the freezer is failed loaded the «rising of the
temperature» is reduced. If thawing has not yet
started proceed as said in previous point.
C) If thawing has started, consume the food inme-
diately, or cook it and then freezen it again.
Refrigerator Compartment:
This compartment is meant for keeping drinks and
fresh food.
The inner temperature is quite equalized. Avoid
food touching inner walls, as the cold is being pro-
duced in there and the food could partly get frozen.
On the other hand this would avoid a perfect circula-
tion of the cold air.
This appliance is providen with an automatic defros-
ting divice. You therefore might find sometimes a fine
layer of ice or water drops.
Useful Hints:
Do not introduce any new food during a freezing
period.
Do not put any newly introduced food for freezing
near to already frozen food.
Wrap the food up properly or place it in hermethic
recipies before introducing it into the freezer.
Do not introduce any hot food into the freezer.
Food and drinks of a strong flavour may pass this
on to others and affect their flavour. Wrap them up
adequately or put them into tight closing bags.
Follow the instructions given in the cook books,
freezing books and wrapping utensiles for better
conservation of food.

Defrosting of the freezer
The inner walls of the freezer become gradually con-
vered with a layer of frost keeping in mind not to open
the door frequently and keeping the food wrapped up

should be removed. Hereto proceed as follows:
Remove all food staff and place it in the coolest pos-
sible place.
Remove the ice from the walls with a platic scraper.
Never use any sharp metal tools, electric ovens or
similar as these may cause serious damage to the
appliance.
