ABOUT THIS PRODUCT
This product is designed for domestic household use only.
Use the 4-star freezer compartment
- to freeze fresh and cooked foods,
- to store deep-frozen and frozen products,
- to make ice-cubes.
Use the refrigerator compartment
- to store fresh foods,
- to cool drinks.
The fre ezer and refrigerator compartments defro s t a u t o m a t i c a l l y.
Owing to cool air circulation (multi-airflow system) an even temperature is maintained on every shelf of the refrigerator compartment. The temperature in the specially designed low temperature compartment is kept at approximately 0°C, extending nutritional value and original freshness of the food.
The electronic control panel enables you to control the refrigerator compartment without opening the door.
“Super Freezing” function: instant cooling with powerful supply of cold air.
“Vac (vacation) Freezing” function: energy saving, e.g. when you are away from home for a longer period.
Shelves can be easily moved from top to bottom without fully opening the door.

- Should it be necessary to remove a moulded on plug from the mains cable, it should be cut off and replaced with a suitable replacement.
- The moulded plug cannot be used for any other appliance, therefore remove the fuse and dispose immediately and safely to prevent anyone, especially children, from plugging it into a wall socket, which will create a safety hazard.
- Should the mains lead ever require a replacement, it is essential that this operation be carried out by a qualified electrician and should only be replaced with a flexible cord obtained from the manufacturer.
- After replacement of a fuse in the plug, the fuse cover must be refitted. If the fuse cover is lost a replacement cover must be obtained. The colour of the correct replacement fuse cover is that of the coloured insert in the base of the plug or the colour that is embossed in words in the base of the plug recess or elsewhere on the plug. Always state this colour when ordering a replacement fuse cover.
- Only 13 amp. replacement fuses which are ASTA approved to BS 1362 should be fitted.
4. Check the rating plate (7) for voltage information.
5. The socket should be easily accessible and not directly behind the appliance.
6. Electrical connections must be made in accordance with local regulations. The appliance must be earthed as described by law (connected through a properly earthed plug and socket). The manufacturer rejects all liability for injury to persons and animals or damage to property resulting from failure to comply with this requirement.
7. A 10A fuse or one of a higher value must be used in the socket circuit.
8. If the appliance plug and the wall socket are incompatible, the socket must be replaced by a qualified electrician.
9. If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer or his service agent or a similarly qualified person in order to avoid hazard.
10. Do not use extension leads or multiple adapters, etc.
11. In some countries a plug has to be fitted. Make sure that the installation and electrical connections are performed by a qualified technician in compliance with the manufacturer’s instructions and current local safety regulations. The wires in the mains lead are coloured in accordance with the following code:
- green/yellow = earth
- blue = neutral
