BEFORE USING THE REFRIGERATOR

In order to maximise the performance of your refrigerator, carefully read the user instructions and the attached product sheet, which provide useful food conservation tips and a description of the appliance. Keep this booklet for future reference.

• The product you have purchased is an

automatic refrigerator, or a refrigerator with a low temperature compartment (see attached product sheet), and is for domestic use only. The refrigerator compartment defrosts automatically and is used for the preservation of fresh foods and drinks. The

low temperature

compartment,

if featured, is used for the conservation of deep-frozen and frozen foods and for making ice-cubes; defrosting is manual.

1. After unpacking, check the refrigerator for damage and make sure the doors close properly. Any damage must be reported to the retailer within 24 hrs of delivery.

2. Leave the appliance standing in a vertical position for at least 2 hours before connecting it to the power supply (to allow the refrigerant circuit time to settle).

3. Make sure that the installation and electrical

connection are carried out by a qualified technician in compliance with the manufacturer’s instructions and local safety regulations.

1. Packaging

The packaging material is 100% recyclable, as confirmed by the recycling symbol. Follow local regulations for waste disposal. Keep potentially hazardous packaging (plastic bags, polystyrene, etc.) out of the reach of children.

2. Product

The refrigerator has been manufactured using recyclable materials. Follow local waste disposal regulations when scrapping. Cut off the power cable to prevent connection to the mains.

Dispose of the appliance at your local

recycling plant for refrigerant gases.

Information

This appliance is free of CFC’s (refrigerant circuit contains R134a) or free of HFC’s (refrigerant circuit contains R600a - Isobutane). For more details, please refer to the rating plate on the appliance.

PROTECTING THE ENVIRONMENT

PRECAUTIONS AND GENERAL RECOMMENDATIONS

• Only use the refrigerator compartment to

store fresh foods only and the low temperature compartment to store deepfrozen foods and making ice-cubes.

• Do not cover or close the air vents.

• Do not put glassware containers holding

liquids in the low temperature compartment since they may explode.

• Do not eat ice-cubes or ice-lollies immediately after taking them out of the low temperature compartment, since they may cause cold-burns.

• To prevent the risk of trapping and suffocation, do not allow children to play or hide inside the refrigerator.

• Before cleaning or servicing the appliance, always unplug it or switch off the mains power supply.

• The power cable may only be replaced by authorized personnel.

Declaration of conformity

• This appliance is designed to store food

products and complies with European Directive 89/109/EEC.

For appliances with Isobutane (R600a)

The refrigerant Isobutane is a natural gas of high environmental compatibility but which is inflammable. Therefore, it is essential to ensure that the ducts of the refrigerant circuit do not get damaged.

HOW TO USE THE REFRIGERATOR COMPARTMENT

This is an automatic refrigerator or refrigerator with star low temperature compartment.

Refrigerator compartment defrosting is fully automatic.

The refrigerator operates in an ambient temperature ranging from +16°C to +32°C.

Switching on the refrigerator

Insert the plug in the mains socket. The thermostat allows you to set the temperature inside the refrigerator compartment without altering the conditions inside the low temperature compartment.

Setting the temperature:

1. For correct operation and excellent storage

results in both compartments, set the thermostat between positions 2 and 3.

2. To set the temperature inside the compartments, turn the thermostat as follows:

• 1-2 for a WARMER TEMPERATURE.

• 3-4 for a COLDER TEMPERATURE.

Thermostat set to • position: the appliance and lighting switch off.

Note:

Ambient temperature, the frequency with which the doors are opened and closed and the position of the appliance can affect the temperature inside the two compartments. Adjust the thermostat accordingly.

How to store food in the refrigerator compartment.

1. Store the food as shown in the adjacent

illustration.

A. Cooked food B. Fish and meat C. Fruit and vegetables D. Bottles E. Eggs F. Butter, cheese and other dairy products.

Note:

• Make sure the air circulates freely between

the shelves and the back wall of the refrigerator.

• Do not store food against the back wall of the compartment.

• Store liquids in sealed containers.

• Vegetables with a high water content (e.g.

lettuce) may cause condensation to form in the bottom drawers and/or on the middle shelves; this does not affect the correct operation of the appliance. Nevertheless, it is advisable to wrap vegetables before storing.
