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 storing of food at low temperature. 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 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.
Refrigerant
The refrigerant isobutane (R600a) is contained within the refrigerant circuit of the appliance, a natural gas with a high level of environmen­tal compatibility, which is nevertheless flammable.
• 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
Page 5
5
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.
• Do not operate any electrical appliances in the refrigerator/freezer (e.g. electric ice cream makers, mixers etc.).
• Before cleaning the appliance, always switch off the appliance and unplug it, or pull the house fuse or switch off the circuit breaker.
• 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.

Disposal
Appliance Packaging Information
All materials are environmentally friendly. They can be dumped 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 chlo­rofluorocarbon.
The carton parts are made from recycled paper and should be disposed of at a waste-paper 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 eliminates the danger that playing children lock themselves into the appliance (danger of suffocation!) or place themselves into other life-endangering 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.
• Information concerning collection schedules or locations can be obtained from your local Council or Environmental Health Office.
Remove transport packaging
The appliance and the interior fittings are protected for transport. Pull off the adhesive tape on the left and right side of the door.
Page 7

You can remove any remnants of adhesive using white spirit.
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 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 rating 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:
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.
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

Fitting the plinth
Important!
For the efficient operation of the appliance, it is important that the original ventilation grid is used.
• For an opening height dimension A=820 mm and a plinth height dimension a=100 mm, the plinth may be fitted without adjustments. The same applies to an opening height dimension B=870 mm and a plinth height dimension b=150 mm.
• For plinth heights greater than a=100 mm, b=150 mm, a cut should be made in the plinth, 580 mm wide, in the centre of the appliance position, leaving a remaining height of a=100 mm, b=150 mm.
• Attach plinth to the kitchen units.
Important!
The plinth must be positioned at a minimun distance of 25 mm from the door.
Please check whether, after installing your appliance and especially after reversing the door, the door seal seals right round. A badly fitting door seal may lead to heavy frosting and result in a higher power con­sumption (see also “What to do if ...”).
Power supply
A correctly installed, earthed socket is required for the electrical supply. The supply must have a fuse rating of at least 10 Amps. If the socket is not accessible once the appliance is built in, the electrical installation must include suitable means of isolating the appliance from the mains (e.g. a fused spur). Before initial start-up, refer to the appliance rating plate to ascertain if supply voltage and current values correspond with those of the mains at the installation location. e.g.: AC 220 ... 240 V 50 Hz or
220 ... 240 V ~50 Hz (i.e. 220 to 240 volts alternating current, 50 Hertz) The rating plate is inside the appliance on the left.

Electrical Connection
Any electrical work required to install this appliance should be carried out by a qualified electrician or competent person.
WARNING – THIS APPLIANCE MUST BE EARTHED The manufacturer declines any liability should these safety mea­sures not be observed.
Before switching on, make sure the electricity supply voltage is the same as that indicated on the appliance rating plate. The rating plate is inside, on the left.
The appliance is supplied with a 13 amp plug fitted. In the event of having to change the fuse in the plug supplied, a 13 amp ASTA approved (BS 1362) fuse must be used.
Important
The wires in the mains lead are coloured in accordance with the following code:
Green and Yellow Earth Blue Neutral Brown Live
As the colours of the wires in the mains lead of this appliance may not correspond with the coloured markings identifying the terminals in your plug, proceed as follows:
1.The wire coloured green and yellow must be connected to the termi­nal marked with the letter “E” or by the earth symbol or coloured green and yellow.
2.The wire coloured blue must be connected to the terminal marked “N” or coloured black.
3.The wire coloured brown must be connected to the terminal marked “L” or coloured red.
4.Upon completion there must be no cut, or stray strands of wire pre­sent and the cord clamp must be secure over the outer sheath.
Warning! A cut-off plug inserted into a 13 amp socket is a serious safety (shock) hazard. Ensure that the cut-off plug is disposed of safety.

Starting up and temperature regulation
Connect the appliance to the mains electricity supply. When the refrigerator compartment door is opened, the internal light­ing is switched on. The temperature selector knob is located on the right hand side of the refrigerator compartment. Setting “0” means: Off. Turning clockwise in direction “1”: Refrigerating unit on, the latter then operating automatically.
Setting “1” means:
Hightest temperature, warmest set­ting.
Setting “6” (end-stop) means:
Lowest temperature, coldest setting.
At a low ambient temperature of around 16°C, setting “1” should be selected. At ambient temperatures of around 25°C, select setting “2”. If you require a lower temperature, select setting “3” or “4”.
Important!
High ambient temperatures (e.g. on hot summer days) and a cold set­ting on the thermostat (position”5” to “6”) can cause the compressor to run continuously. Reason: when the ambient temperature is high, the compressor must run continuously to maintain the low temperature in the appliance. The fridge will not be able to defrost since automatic defrosting of the fridge is only possible when the compressor is not running (see also "Defrosting" section). The result is the build up of a thick layer of frost on the fridge rear wall. If this happens, turn the thermostat knob back to a warmer setting (position “3” to “4”). At this setting the compressor will be switched on and off as usual and automatic defrosting recommenced.

Interior Accessories
Storage shelves/wire trays
Various glass or plastic storage shelves and wire trays are included with your appliance - different models have different combinations.
You should always slide one of the full size glass storage shelves into the lowest set of guides, above the fruit and vegetable drawers, and keep it in this position.
The height of the storage shelves can be adjusted: To do this pull the storage shelf forward until it can be swivelled
upwards or downwards and removed. Please do the same in reverse to insert the shelf at a different height.
VARIO glass storage shelf
Your appliance is equipped with two half size glass storage shelves. Storing tall items:
Slide the front half of the Vario storage shelf in another level to the rear. By this means you will gain space to place tall items on the storage shelf below.
Correct storage
The length of storage time depends on the type of food - see manu­facturer’s instructions.
Tip: Food in the fridge should always be covered or packaged, to pre­vent drying and tainting of other food.
The following are suited for packaging: – Polyethylene airtight bags and wraps;
– Plastic containers with lids; – Special plastic covers with elastic; – aluminium foil.
Page 18
Defrosting
The fridge defrosts automatically
The rear wall of the fridge covers with frost when the compressor is running, and defrosts when the compressor is off. The water from the thawing frost evaporates by itself.
Switching off the appliance
To switch off the appliance, turn the temperature regulator to positi on "0".
If the appliance is not going to be used for an extended period:
Remove all refrigerated packages. Switch off the appliance by turning the thermostat knob to position
"0". Remove the mains plug or switch off or disconnect from the electrici-
ty supply. Clean thoroughly (see section: “Cleaning and Care”). Leave the door open to avoid the build up of odours.
Cleaning and Care
For hygienic reasons the appliance interior, including interior acces­sories, should be cleaned regularly.
Warning!
• The appliance must not be connected to the mains during cleaning.
Danger of electrical shock. Before cleaning switch the appliance off and remove the plug from the mains, or disconnect from the elec­tricity supply.
• Never clean the appliance with a steam cleaner. Moisture could
accumulate in electrical components and there is a danger of an electrical shock. Hot vapours can lead to the damage of plastic parts.
• The appliance must be dry before it is placed back into service.
Important!
• Ethereal oils and organic solvents can attack plastic parts, e.g. – lemon juice or the juice from orange peals;
18
Page 19

– butyric acid; – cleansers which contain acetic acid.
Do not allow such substances to come into contact with appliance parts.
• Do not use any abrasive cleansers. Remove the food from the refrigerator. Store it in a cool place, well covered. Switch the appliance off and remove the plug from the mains, or dis­connect from the electricity supply Clean the appliance and the interior accessories with a cloth and lukewarm water. Commercially available dish washing detergents may also be used.
After cleaning wipe with fresh water and rub dry. An accumulation of dust will affect the performance of the appliance and cause excessive electricity consump­tion. The structure of the appliance permits you to clean the rear zone close to the wall, using a vacuum cleaner.
Remove the plinth (1), then the venti­lation grid (2);
Carefully pull the air deflector out (3), checking that there is no water left from the defrosting. Check the water drain hole (F) under the vegetable drawers of the fridge is not blocked. Clear a blocked drain hole with the aid of the green peg (P) in the pack of accessories included with the appliance. After everything is dry place appliance back into service.
Energy Saving Tips
• Do not install the appliance near boilers, radiators or other sources
of heat. High ambient temperatures cause longer, more frequent operation of the compressor.
• Ensure sufficient air circulation and exhaust at the appliance base
and at the back wall of the appliance. Never cover air vent openings.
• Do not place warm foods into the appliance. Allow warm foods to
cool first.
