Installation
! Before placing your new appliance into operation please
GB
read these operating instructions carefully. They contain important information for safe use, for installation and for care of the appliance.
! Please keep these operating instructions for future reference. Pass them on to possible new owners of the appliance.
Positioning and connection
Positioning
1. Place the appliance in a well-ventilated humidity-free room.
2. Do not obstruct the rear fan grills. The compressor and condenser give off heat and require good ventilation to operate correctly and save energy.
3. Ensure the appliance is away from any sources of heat (direct sunlight, electric stove, etc.).
Electrical connections
After the appliance has been transported, carefully place it vertically and wait at least 3 hours before connecting it to the electricity mains. Before inserting the plug into the electrical socket ensure the following:
 The appliance is earthed and the plug is compliant with
the law.
 The socket can withstand the maximum power of the
appliance, which is indicated on the data plate located on the bottom left side of the fridge (e.g. 150 W).
 The voltage must be in the range between the values
indicated on the data plate located on the bottom left side (e.g. 220-240V).
 The socket is compatible with the plug of the appliance.
If the socket is incompatible with the plug, ask an authorised technician to replace it (see Assistance). Do not use extension cords or multiple sockets.
! Once the appliance has been installed, the power supply cable and the electrical socket must be easily accessible.
! The cable must not be bent or compressed. ! The cable must be checked regularly and replaced by
authorised technicians only (see Assistance).
! The manufacturer declines any liability should
these safety measures not be observed.

Start-up and use
Starting the appliance
GB
! Before starting the appliance, follow the installation instructions (see Installation).
! Before connecting the appliance, clean the compartments and accessories well with lukewarm water and bicarbonate.
1. Insert the plug into the socket and ensure that the internal light illuminates.
2. Turn the TEMPERATURE ADJUSTMENT knob to an average value. After a few hours you will be able to put food in the refrigerator.
Using the refrigerator to its full potential
The temperature inside the refrigerator compartment automatically adjusts itself according to the position of the thermostat knob. 1 = warmest 5 = coldest We recommend, however, a medium position. The cooling section of the refrigerator is located inside the back wall of the refrigerator compartment for increased space and improved aesthetics. During operation, the back wall will be covered in frost or water droplets depending on whether the compressor is operating or paused. Do not worry, the refrigerator is functioning normally. If the TEMPERATURE ADJUSTMENT knob has been set on high values with large quantities of food and with a high ambient temperature, the appliance can operate continuously, resulting in excessive frost formation and excessive energy consumption: compensate for this by shifting the knob towards lower values (defrosting will occur automatically). In static appliances, the air circulates in a natural way: the colder air tends to move downwards as it is heavier. The food should be stored as follows:

On any shelf
 Place only cold or lukewarm foods in the compartment,
not hot foods (see Precautions and tips).
 Remember that cooked foods do not last longer than
raw foods.
 Do not store liquids in open containers. They will
increase humidity in the refrigerator and cause condensation to form.
SHELVES: with or without grill.

Due to the special guides the shelves are removable and the height is adjustable (see diagram), allowing easy storage of large containers and food. Height can be adjusted without complete removal of the shelf.
Using the freezer to its full potential
 Do not re-freeze food that is defrosting or that has
already been defrosted. These foods must be cooked and eaten (within 24 hours).
 Fresh food that needs to be frozen must not come into
contact with food that has already been frosted.
 Do not place glass bottles which contain liquids, and
which are corked or hermetically sealed in the freezer because they could break.
 The maximum quantity of food that may be frozen daily
is indicated on the plate containing the technical properties located on the bottom left side of the refrigerator compartment (for example: Kg/24h: 4)
! Do not open the door during freezing.
! If there is a power cut or malfunction, do not open the
freezer door. This will help maintain the temperature inside the freezer, ensuring that foods are conserved for at least 9 -14 hours.
! If the room temperature drops below 14°C for an extended period of time, the ideal temperature will not be reached in the freezer compartment and food preservation will be reduced.

Maintenance and care
Switching the appliance off
During cleaning and maintenance it is necessary to disconnect the appliance from the electricity supply: It is not sufficient to set the temperature adjustment knobs
(appliance off) to eliminate all electrical contact.
on
Cleaning the appliance
 The external and internal parts, as well as the rubber
seals may be cleaned using a sponge that has been soaked in lukewarm water and bicarbonate of soda or neutral soap. Do not use solvents, abrasive products, bleach or ammonia.
 The removable accessories may be soaked in warm
water and soap or dishwashing liquid. Rinse and dry them carefully.
Avoiding mould and unpleasant odours
 The appliance is manufactured with hygienic materials
which are odour free. In order to maintain an odour free refrigerator and to prevent the formation of stains, food must always be covered or sealed properly.
 If you want to switch the appliance off for an extended
period of time, clean the inside and leave the doors open.
Defrosting the appliance
! Follow the instructions below. Do not use objects with sharp or pointed edges to defrost the appliance as these may damage the refrigeration circuit beyond repair.
Defrosting the refrigerator compartment
The refrigerator has an automatic defrosting function: water is ducted to the back of the appliance by a special discharge outlet (see diagram) where the heat produced by the compressor causes it to evaporate. It is necessary to clean the discharge hole regularly so that the water
can flow out easily.
Defrosting the freezer compartment
If the frost layer is greater than 5 mm, it is necessary to defrost manually:
1. Set the TEMPERATURE ADJUSTMENT knob to the position
2. Wrap frozen foods in newspaper and place them in another freezer or in a cool place.
3. Leave the door open until the frost has melted completely. This can be made easier by placing containers with lukewarm water in the freezer compartment.
4. Clean and dry the freezer compartment carefully before switching the appliance on again.
5. Wait for approximately 2 hours, i.e. until the ideal storage conditions have been restored, before placing food in the freezer compartment.
Replacing the light bulb
To replace the light bulb in the refrigerator compartment, pull out the plug from the electrical socket. Follow the instructions below.
.
GB
Access the light bulb by removing the cover as indicated in the diagram. Replace it with a similar light bulb within the power range indicated on the cover (15W or 25W).

! The appliance was designed and manufactured in
GB
compliance with international safety standards. The following warnings are provided for safety reasons and must be read carefully.
This appliance complies with the following Community Directives:
- 73/23/EEC of 19/02/73 (Low Voltage) and subsequent amendments;
-89/336/EEC of 03.05.89 (Electromagnetic Compatibility) and subsequent amendments;
- 2002/96/CE..
General safety
 The appliance was designed for domestic use inside the
home and is not intended for commercial or industrial use.
 The appliance must be used to store and freeze food
products by adults only and according to the instructions in this manual.
 The appliance must not be installed outdoors, even in
covered areas. It is extremely dangerous to leave the appliance exposed to rain and storms.
 Do not touch the appliance with bare feet or with wet or
moist hands and feet.
 Do not touch the internal cooling elements: this could
cause skin abrasions or frost/freezer burns.
 When unplugging the appliance always pull the plug from
the mains socket, do not pull on the cable.
 Before cleaning and maintenance, always switch off the
appliance and disconnect it from the electrical supply. It is not sufficient to set the temperature adjustment knobs on
(appliance off) to eliminate all electrical contact.
 In the case of a malfunction, under no circumstances
should you attempt to repair the appliance yourself. Repairs carried out by inexperienced persons may cause injury or further malfunctioning of the appliance.
 Do not use any sharp or pointed utensils or electrical
equipment - other than the type recommended by the manufacturer - inside the frozen food storage compartments.
 Do not put ice cubes taken directly from the freezer into
your mouth.
Disposal
 Observe local environmental standards when disposing
packaging material for recycling purposes.
 The European Directive 2002/96/EC on Waste
Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE), requires that old household electrical appliances must not be disposed of in the normal unsorted municipal waste stream. Old appliances must be collected separately in order to optimise the recovery and recycling of the materials they contain and reduce the impact on human health and the environment. The crossed out wheeled bin symbol on the product reminds you of your obligation, that when you dispose of the appliance it must be separately collected.
Consumers should contact their local authority or retailer for information concerning the correct disposal of their old appliance.
Respecting and conserving the environment
 Install the appliance in a fresh and well-ventilated room.
Ensure that it is protected from direct sunlight and do not place it near heat sources.
 Try to avoid keeping the door open for long periods or
opening the door too frequently in order to conserve energy.
 Do not fill the appliance with too much food: cold air
must circulate freely for food to be preserved properly. If circulation is impeded, the compressor will work continuously.
 Do not place hot food directly into the refrigerator. The
internal temperature will increase and force the compressor to work harder and will consume more energy.
 Defrost the appliance if ice forms (see Maintenance). A
thick layer of ice makes cold transference to food products more difficult and results in increased energy consumption.
 Regularly check the door seals and wipe clean to
ensure they are free of debris and to prevent cold air from escaping (see Maintenance).
 Do not allow children to tamper with the controls or play
with the appliance. Under no circumstance should they be allowed to sit on the bins or to hang from the door.
 Keep packaging material out of the reach of children! It can
become a choking or suffocation hazard.
