Important Safety Instructions

These warnings are provided in the interests of your safety. Ensure you fully understand them before installing or using the appliance. Your safety is of paramount importance. If you are unsure about the meaning of these warnings contact the Customer Care Department for assistance.

Intended use

The refrigerator is intended for use in the home. It is suitable for the cooling, freezing and storing of frozen food, as well as for making ice. If the appliance is used for purposes other than those intended or used incorrectly, no liability can be accepted by the manufacturer for any damage that may be caused.

Alterations or changes to the refrigerator are not permitted for reasons of safety.

If you use the refrigerator in a commercial application or for purposes other than the cooling, freezing or frozen storage of foods, the manufacturer accepts no liability for any damages which may occur.

Prior to initial start–up

Check the appliance for transport damage. Under no circumstance should a damaged appliance be plugged in. In the event of damage, please contact your supplier.

Ensure that the appliance does not stand on the electrical supply cable. Important: if the supply cable is damaged, it must be replaced by authorised service or qualified personnel using a special cable of the same type.

Refrigerant

The refrigerant isobutane (R600a) is contained with in the refrigerant circuit of the appliance, a natural gas with a high level of environmental compatibility, which is nevertheless flammable.

Warning- During transportation and installation of the appliance, be certain that none of the components of the refrigerant circuit become damaged.

If the refrigerant circuit should become damaged:

- avoid open flames and sources of ignition;

- thoroughly ventilate the room in which the appliance is situated.

Safety of children

Packaging (e.g. wraps, polystyrene) can be dangerous for children. There is a risk of suffocation! Keep packaging material away from children!

Please make old appliances unusable prior to disposal. Pull out the mains plug, cut off the mains cable, break or remove spring or bolt catches, if fitted. By doing this you ensure that children cannot lock themselves in the appliance when playing (there is risk of suffocation!) or get themselves into other dangerous situations.

Often children cannot recognise the hazards present in household appliances. It is therefore important that you ensure adequate supervision and never let children play with the appliance!

Daily Operation

Containers with flammable gases or liquids can leak at low temperatures. There is a risk of an explosion! Do not store any containers with flammable materials such as spray cans, fire extinguisher refill cartridges etc. in the refrigerator/freezer.

Bottles and cans must not be placed in the freezer compartment. They can burst when the contents freeze, high carbonate content drinks can even explode! Never store lemonade, juices, beer, wine, sparkling wine etc. in the freezer compartment.

Do not place ice cream or ice cubes in the mouth immediately after removal from the freezer compartment. Very cold ice can freeze to the lips or tongue and cause injury.

Do not touch frozen food with wet hands. Your hands could freeze to the food.

Warning- Do not operate any electrical appliances in the refrigerator and/or freezer (e.g. electric ice cream makers, mixers etc.).

Warning- In order not to impair the function of the appliance, never cover or obstruct the ventilation openings.

Warning- Do not damage the cooling circuit. Warning- Do not use any mechanical devices or other artificial means to

speed up defrosting unless they are recommended by the manufacturer. Before cleaning the appliance, always switch off the appliance and unplug

it, or disconnect from the electricity supply. When unplugging always pull the plug from the mains socket, do not pull

on the cable.

In case of malfunction

If a malfunction occurs on the appliance, please look first in the "What to do if ..." section of these instructions. If the information given there does not help, please do not perform any further repairs yourself.

This product should be serviced by an authorised engineer and only genuine spare parts should be used.

Under no circumstances should you attempt to repair the appliance yourself. Repairs carried out by inexperienced persons may cause injury or serious malfunctioning. Contact your local Service Force centre.

Disposal

Appliance Packaging Information

All materials are environmentally sound! They can be disposed of or burned at an incinerating plant without danger. About the materials: The plastics can be recycled and are identified as follows:

>PE< for polyethylene, e.g. the outer covering and the bags in the interior. >PS< for polystyrene foam, e.g. the pads, which are all free of chloro-

fluorocarbon. The carton parts are made from recycled paper and should be disposed of at

a wastepaper recycling collection location.

Disposal of Old Appliances

For environmental reasons, refrigeration appliances must be disposed of properly. This applies to your old appliance, and - at the end of its service life

- for your new appliance as well. Warning! Before disposing of old appliances make them inoperable. Remove

plug from mains, sever the power cable, remove or destroy any snap or latch closures. This ensures that children do not lock themselves inside the appliance (danger of suffocation!) or place themselves into other lifeendangering situations.

Disposal:

The appliance may not be disposed of with domestic waste or bulky refuse. The refrigerant circuit, especially the heat exchanger at the back of the

appliance, must not be damaged. The symbol on the product or on its packaging indicates that this

product may not be treated as household waste. Instead it shall be handed over to the applicable collection point for the recycling of electrical and electronic equipment. By ensuring this product is disposed of correctly, you will help prevent potential negative consequences for the environment and human health, which could otherwise be caused by inappropriate waste handling of this product. For more detailed information about recycling of this product, please contact your local city office, your household waste disposal service or the shop where you purchased the product.

Remove Transport Packaging

The appliance and the interior fittings are protected for transport.

1. Pull off the adhesive tape on the left and right side of the door.

2. Remove all adhesive tape and packing pieces from the interior of the

appliance.

Installation

Installation Location

The appliance should be set up in a well ventilated, dry room. Energy use and efficient performance of the appliance is affected by the

ambient temperature. The appliance should therefore

- not be exposed to direct sunlight;

- not be installed next to radiators, cookers or other sources of heat;

- only be installed at a location whose ambient temperature corresponds to the climate classification, for which the appliance is designed.

The climate classification can be found on the serial plate, which is located at the left on the inside of the appliance.

The following table shows which ambient temperature is correct for each climate classification:

Climate classification for an ambient temperature of

SN +10 to +32 °C

N +16 to +32 °C

ST +18 to +38 °C

T +18 to +43 °C

If the refrigeration appliance is installed next to another refrigerator or freezer a clearance of 5 cm at the sides is required, in order to prevent the formation of condensation on the outside of the appliance.

Your Refrigerator Needs Air

For correct operation this appliance must be located in a dry atmosphere, away from heat sources, e.g. cookers, radiators, boilers and direct sunlight.

You should also ensure that air can circulate freely around the back and the top of the cabinet. There should be 100mm (4”) between the top of the cabinet and any overhanging kitchen furniture.

Alternatively allow 50mm (2”) between the top of the cabinet and any overhanging kitchen furniture and a gap of 25mm (1”) on either side of the appliance.

If your refrigerator is installed under a continuous worktop, an air outlet opening of at least 200 cm

and a ventilation grille (A/B) matching the worktop design should be installed at the rear of the worktop. The cut surfaces of the worktop (C) should be varnished to avoid swelling due to penetration of moisture. The appliance wall distance must beat least 30 mm and should be checked before the ventilation grille is inserted.

Detaching the Worktop

After the worktop has been removed the appliance can be installed underneath a continuous worktop. The procedure is as follows:

1.Unscrew the screws (1) on the

right and the left.

2. Lift the worktop slightly, push it

about 20 mm towards the rear, and lift it off upwards (2). To remove the top of the refrigerator unfasten the screws on the front-right- and frontleft-hand side (3) and keep it in a safe place (4).
