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.
If this appliance featuring magnetic door seals is to replace an older appliance having a spring lock (latch) 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.
This must be done before the appliance is built intoThese warnings are provided in the interest of safety. You must read them carefully before installing or using the appliance.
General Safety
¥This appliance is designed to be operated by adults. Children should not be allowed to tamper with the controls or play with the product.
¥It is dangerous to alter the specifications or modify this product in any way.
¥Care must be taken to ensure that the appliance does not stand on the electrical supply cable.
Important: if the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by a special cord or assembly available from the manufacturer or its service agent.
¥Before any cleaning or maintenance work is carried out, be sure to switch off and unplug the appliance.
¥This appliance is heavy. Care should be taken when moving it
¥Ice lollies can cause frost burns if consumed straight from the appliance.
¥Take utmost care when handling your appliance so as not to cause any damages to the cooling unit with consequent possible fluid leakages.
¥The appliance must not be located close to radiators or gas cookers.
¥Avoid prolonged exposure of the appliance to direct sunlight.
¥There must be adequate ventilation round the back of the appliance and any damage to the refrigerant circuit must be avoided.
¥For freezers only (except built-in models): an ideal location is the cellar or basement.
¥Do not use other electrical appliances (such as ice cream makers) inside of refrigerating appliances, unless they are approved for this purpose by the manufacturer.
Service/Repair
¥Any electrical work required to install this
appliance should be carried out by a qualified electrician or competent person
¥This product should be serviced by an authorized Service Centre, and only genuine spare parts should be used.
¥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
¥This appliance contains hydrocarbons in its cooling unit; maintenance and recharging must therefore only be carried out by authorized technicians.
Use
¥The domestic refrigerators and freezers are designed to be used specifically for the storage of edible foodstuffs only.
¥Best performance is obtained with ambient temperature between +18¡C and +43¡C (class T); +18¡C and +38¡C (class ST); +16¡C and +32¡C (class N); +10¡C and +32¡C (class SN). The class of your appliance is shown on its rating plate.
Warning: when the ambient temperature is not included within the range indicated for the class of this appliance, the following instructions must be observed: when the ambient temperature drops below the minimum level, the storage temperature in the freezer compartment cannot be guaranteed; therefore it is advisable to use the food stored as soon as possible.
¥Frozen food must not be re-frozen once it has been thawed out.
¥ManufacturersÕ storage recommendations should be strictly adhered to. Refer to relevant instructions.
¥The inner lining of the appliance consists of channels 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
14
¥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.
Installation
¥During normal operation, the condenser and compressor at the back of the appliance heat up considerably. For safety reasons, minimum ventilation must be as shown in the relevant Figure.
Attention: keep ventilation openings clear of obstruction.
¥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.
¥There are working parts in this product 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.
¥Parts which heat up should not be exposed. Wherever possible the back of the product should be against a wall.
¥If the appliance has been transported horizontally, it is possible that the oil contained in the compressor ’lows in the refrigerant circuit. It is advisable to wait at least two hours before connecting the appliance to allow tlõe oil to flow back in the compressor.
Environment Protection
This appliance does not contain gasses which could damage the ozone layer, in either its refrigerant circuit or insulation materials. The appliance shall not be discarded together with the urban refuse and rubbish. Avoid damaging the cooling unit, especially at the rear near the heat exchanger. Information on your local disposal sites may be obtained from municipal authorities. The materials used on this appliance marked by the symbol 
are recyclable.

USE
Cleaning the interior
Before using the appliance for the first time, wash the interior and all internal accessories with lukewarm water and some neutral soap so as to remove the typical smell of a brand-new product, then dry thoroughly.
Do not use detergents or abrasive powders, as these will damage the finish.
Operation
Insert the plug into the wall socket.
Open the refrigerator door and turn the thermostat knob, clockwise, beyond the ÇOÈ (STOP) position. The appliance will start to operate.
To stop operation, simply turn the thermostat knob to position ÇOÈ
Temperature regulation
The temperature is automatically regulated and can be increased to achieve a higher temperature (warmer) by rotating the thermostat knob toward lower settings or reduced (colder) rotating the knob towards higher settings.
However, the exact setting should be chosen keeping in mind that the temperature inside the refrigerator depends on:
¥room temperature;
¥how often the door is opened;
¥the quantity of food stored;
¥location of appliance.
A medium setting is generally the most suitable.
Important
If the ambient temperature is high or the appliance is fully loaded, and the appliance is set to the lowest temperatures, it may run continuously causing frost to form on the rear wall. In this case the dial must be set to a higher temperature to allow automatic defrosting and therefore reduced energy consumption.
Ambient switch
With a room temperature lower than +16¡C, depress switch (A) (the built-in light will come on)
Fresh food refrigeration
To obtain the best performance:
¥do not store warm food or evaporating liquids in the refrigerator;
¥do cover or wrap the food, particularly if it has a strong flavour.
¥Position food so that air can circulate freely round it.
Freezing fresh food
The 4-star compartment is suitable for long term storage of commercially frozen food and for freezing fresh food.
To freeze fresh foods it is not necessary to move the thermostat knob from the normal setting. Depress the ambient switch at least 3 hours before loading food.
Place the food to be frozen in the lower in the freezer compartment as this is the coldest part.
Storage of frozen food
When first starting-up or after a period out of use, before putting the products in the compartment let the appliance run for at least two hours on the coldest setting, then turn the thermostat knob to the normal operating position.
Important
If there is a power failure when food is in the freezer, do not open the door of the freezer compartment. The frozen food will not be affected if the power cut is of short duration (up to 6-8 hours) and the freezer compartment is full, otherwise, it is recommended that the food should be used within a short time (a temperature increase of the frozen food shortens its safe storage period).
