WARNINGS
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.
ª This appliance is designed to be operated by
adults. Children should not be allowed to tamper
with the controls or play with the appliance.
ª Any electrical work required to install this appliance
should be carried out by a qualified electrician or
competent person.
ª This appliance should be serviced by an authorized
Service Centre, and only genuine spare parts
should be used.
ª It is dangerous to alter the specifications or modify
this appliance in any way.
ª Care must be taken to ensure that the appliance
does not stand on the electrical supply cable.
ª The domestic refrigerators and freezers are designed
to be used specifically for the storage of edible foodstuffs only.
ª The inner lining of the appliance consists of chan-
nels 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.
ª Do 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.
ª This appliance is heavy. Care should be taken when
moving it.
ª Ice lollies can cause frost bur ns if consumed
straight from the appliance.
ª Under 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.
ª This appliance does not contain gasses which
could damage the ozone layer, in either its refrigerant circuit or insulation materials; it must nevertheless be disposed off in a proper manner, in
accordance with regulations for protection of the
environment.
ª Frozen food must not be re-frozen once it has been
thawed out.
ª Manufacturers’ storage recommendations should
be strictly adhered to. Refer to r elevant instructions.
ª There are working parts in this appliance 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.
ª Parts which heat up should not be exposed. Wher-
ever possible the back of the appliance should be
against a wall.
ª Before any cleaning or maintenance work is carried
out, be sure to switch off and unplug the appliance.
ª If 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.
INSTALLATION
If this refrigerator featuring magnetic door seals is
to replace an older appliance having a spring lock
on the door or lid, be sure to make that spring lock
unusable before you discard the old appliance.
This will prevent it from becoming a death-trap for
a child.
Location
Place the appliance as far away as possible from
sources of heat, e.g. radiators, heaters, direct sunlight, etc. The best results are achieved with a room
temperature ranging from +16°C to +32°C (class N) or
from +18°C to +38°C (class ST). The class of your appliance is shown on its rating plate.
Power connection
Before plugging the appliance into the mains socket,
check that the voltage and frequency indicated on the
appliance’s rating plate are the same as those provided by your home power supply.
A 6% fluctuation above or below rated voltage is acceptable.
For operation using different voltages you should use
an autotransformer of suitable capacity.
The appliance’s plug and the wall socket are fully
compatible, without any need to use adaptors, multiple plugs, etc. If this is not the case, the wall socket
should be replaced to make it compatible.
The appliance MUST be connected to an efficient
earth or ground tap.
The supply lead plug in fact incorporates a special
earth or ground contact for this purpose. If by any
chance the sockets of your domestic wiring system
are not earthed, the appliance must be connected to a
separate earth or ground wire by a qualified electrician, in accordance with existing safety regulations.
The manufacturer declines to accept any liability if
this accident-prevention procedure is not followed.
This appliance complies with E.E.C. directive no. 87/
308 of 2.6.87 relative to radio interference suppression.
