WARNINGS

GB

It is most important that this instruction book should be retained with the appliance for future reference. Should the appliance be sold or transferred to another owner, or should you move house and leave the appliance, always ensure that the book is supplied with the appliance in order that the new owner can be acquainted with the functioning of the appliance and the relevant warnings.

These warnings are provided in the interest of safety. You must read them carefully before installing or using the appliance.

General Safety

ªThis appliance is designed to be operated by adults. Children should not be allowed to tamper with the controls or play with the product.

ªIt is dangerous to alter the specifications or modify this product in any way.

ªCare must be taken to ensure that the appliance does not stand on the electrical supply cable.

ªBefore any cleaning or maintenance work is carried out, be sure to switch off and unplug the appliance.

ªThis appliance is heavy. Care should be taken when moving it.

ªIce lollies can cause frost burns if consumed straight from the appliance.

ªTake utmost care when handling your appliance so as not to cause any damages to the cooling unit with consequent possible fluid leakages.

ªThe appliance must not be located close to radiators or gas cookers.

ªAvoid prolonged exposure of the appliance to direct sunlight.

ªThere must be adequate ventilation round the back of the appliance and any damage to the refrigerant circuit must be avoided.

ªFor freezers only (except built-in models): an ideal location is the cellar or basement.

ªDo not use other electrical appliances (such as ice cream makers) inside of refrigerating appliances, unless they are approved for this purpose by the manufacturer.

Service / Repair

ªAny electrical work required to install this appliance should be carried out by a qualified electrician or competent person.

ªThis appliance should be serviced by an authorized Service Centre, and only genuine spare parts should be used.

ªUnder no circumstances should you attempt to repair the appliance yourself.

Repairs carried out by inexperienced persons may cause injury or more serious malfunctioning. Refer to your local Service Centre, and always insist on genuine spare parts.

ªThis appliance contains hydrocarbons in its cooling unit; maintenance and recharging must therefore only be carried out by authorized technicians.

Use

ªThe domestic refrigerators and freezers are designed to be used specifically for the storage of edible foodstuffs only.

ªFrozen food must not be re-frozen once it has been thawed out.

ªManufacturers’ storage recommendations should be strictly adhered to. Refer to relevant instructions.

ªThe inner lining of the appliance consists of channels through which the refrigerant passes. If these should be punctured this would damage the appliance beyond repair and cause food loss.

DO NOT USE SHARP INSTRUMENTS to scrape off frost or ice. Frost may be removed by using the scraper provided. Under no circumstances should solid ice be forced off the liner. Solid ice should be allowed to thaw when defrosting the appliance.

See defrost instructions.

ªDo not place carbonated or fizzy drinks in the freezer as it creates pressure on the container, which may cause it to explode, resulting in damage to the appliance.

ªDo not use a mechanical device or any artificial means to speed up the thawing process other than those recommended by the manufacturer.

ªNever use metal objects for cleaning your appliance as it may get damaged.

Installation

ªDuring normal operation, the condenser and compressor at the back of the appliance heat up considerably. For safety reasons, minimum ventilation must be as shown in the relevant Figure.

Attention: keep ventilation openings clear of obstruction.

ªIf the appliance is transported horizontally, it is possible that the oil contained in the compressor flows in the refrigerant circuit. It is advisable to wait at least two hours before connecting the appliance to allow the oil to flow back in the compressor.

ªThere are working parts in this product which heat up. Always ensure that there is adequate ventilation as a failure to do this will result in component failure and possible food loss. See installation instructions.

ªParts which heat up should not be exposed. Wherever possible the back of the product should be against a wall.

ªIf the appliance has been transported horizontally, it is possible that the oil contained in the compressor flows in the refrigerant circuit. It is advisable to wait at least two hours before connecting the appliance to allow the oil to flow back in the compressor.

INSTALLATION

GB

Location

Place the appliance as far away as possible from sources of heat, e.g. radiators, heaters, direct sunlight, etc. Best performance is obtained with ambient

temperature between +18°C and +43°C (class T); +18°C and +38°C (class ST); +16°C and +32°C (class N); +10°C and +32°C (class SN).

The class of your appliance is shown on its rating plate.

For safety reasons, minimum ventilation must be as shown in Fig. 1:

Appliance positioned under overhanging kitchen wall units (see Fig. 1-A).

Appliance positioned without overhanging kitchen units (see Fig. 1-B).

Attention: keep ventilation openings clear of obstruction.

One or more adjustable feet mounted on the base of the appliance make it possible to set it perfectly level.

If this appliance – equipped with magnetic door seals

– replaces an older appliance featuring a spring lock (mechanical latch) on the door or lid, please ensure that this lock is made completely unusable before «throwing out» the old appliance. This will prevent it from becoming a death-trap for a child.
