Hints
Saving Energy
¥ Pay careful attention to where the cabinet is
placed. See the section ÒInstallationÓ. When
installed correctly the cabinet will consume less
energy.
¥ Try to avoid keeping the doors open for long
periods or opening the doors too frequently as
warm air will enter the cabinet and cause the
compressor to switch on unnecessarily often.
¥ If the ambient temperature is high, the thermostat
knob is on the coldest setting (higher numbers) and
the appliance is fully loaded, the compressor may
run continuously, causing frost or ice to form on the
evaporator. If this happens, turn the knob to a
warmer setting (lower numbers) to allow a saving
in electricity consumption.
¥ Do not place warm foods inside the appliance.
Allow warm foods to cool first.
¥ Keep the heat emitting condenser, the metall grille
on the rear wall of your appliance, always clean.
Hints for refrigeration
¥ Do not store warm food or evaporating liquids in
the refrigerator and do cover or wrap up the food,
particularly if it has a strong smell.
To help you use your refrigerator correctly, here are
some useful hints:
¥
Raw meat (beef, pork, lamb & poultry): wrap in
polythene bags and place on top of the salad
compartment, this being the coldest spot in the
refrigerator.
Meat can only be stored safely in this way for
one or two days at the most.
¥ Cooked food, cold cuts, jelly, etc.: these should
be well covered and can be stored on any of the
wire shelves.
¥ Fruit & vegetables: these should be thoroughly
cleaned and placed in the bottom drawer/s.
¥ Butter & cheese: these should be placed in
special airtight containers or wrapped in aluminium
foil or polythene bags to keep out as much air as
possible.
¥ Milk bottles: these should have a top and should
be stored in the bottle rack on the door.
Bananas, potatoes, onions and garlic, if not
packed, must not be kept in the refrigerator.
Ice-cube production compartment
Ice-cube production
This appliance is equipped with one or more trays for
the production of ice-cubes.
Fill these trays with water, then put them in the ice-
cube compartment.
Do not use metallic instruments to remove
the trays from the ice-cube compartment.

Maintenance
Unplug the appliance before carrying out
any maintenance operation.
Warning
This appliance contains hydrocarbons in its
cooling unit maintenance and recharging must
therefore only be carried out by authorised
technicians.
Defrosting
¥ During normal operation, the evaporator in the
refrigerator compartment will gradually become
covered with frost.
¥ It is important to periodically remove the frost.
To defrost, proceed as follows:
¥ press the button in the centre of the thermostat
knob.
¥ Once defrosted, the refrigerator will start up again
automatically; the defrosting water which has
collected in the tray below the evaporator must
however be removed.
Never use sharp metal tools to scrape off
frost from the evaporator as you could
damage it.
Do not use a mechanical device or any
artificial means to speed up the thawing
process other than those recommended by
the manufacturer.
Cleaning
Never use metal objects for cleaning your
appliance as it may get damaged.
NEVER use detergents, abrasive powders,
highly perfumed cleaning products or wax
polishes to clean the interior as these will
damage the surface and leave a strong
odour.
Clean the inside with warm water and bicarbonate of
soda. Rinse and dry thoroughly.
When the appliance is not in use
Disconnect the appliance from the electricity supply.
Empty all foods and clean the appliance, leaving the
doors ajar to prevent unpleasant smells.
Changing the light bulb
¥ Should the interior light fail to work, first switch off
the appliance and disconnect from the electricity
supply, then replace the bulb.
¥ The opening on the diffuser gives access to the
light bulb.
¥ Replace the bulb by other with another with the
same charcteristics.

This information can be found on the rating plate
inside the cabenit on the left hand wall. We
recommend that you enter this information here, so
that it is handy if needed.
Something not Working
Problems may be due to causes which can easily be solved before calling the Technical Service. Please
follow these instructions:
Weight surpasses the storage limit of the door shelf so spread weight more evenly or
take some products out.
The appliance is not properly installed. Please look in the ÒBuilding-inÓ section.
Set a lower temperature.
Distribute the food products to allow cold air to circulate around them.
Make sure that the door is completely closed and that the insulating strip is complete
and clean.
The temperature where the cabinet is placed is above normal room temperature.
Set a warmer temperature.
Turn the thermostat knob to a lower number.
The temperature where the cabinet is placed is above normal room temperature.
Check that the ventilation is sufficient and that the ventilation openings are
unobstructed.
The cause could be the introduction of large quantities of food and/or frequent
opening/closing of the door.
Sometimes this is normal. Temperature control may cause clicking sounds when the
system is connected or disconnected.
The injected cooling gas may produce a gurgling sound while passing through the
tubes.
The motor may cause a humming noise and/or slight bumping.
The insulation material used has a tendency to slighly increase noise levels, how ever it
allows for much better insulation and a lower energy consumption.
Door does not close
It is too warm inside the refrigerator
It is too cold inside the refrigerator.
The compressor works continuously.

Installation
Take utmost care when handling your
appliance so as not to cause any damages to
the cooling unit with consequent possible fluid
leakages.
¥ During normal operation, the condenser and
compressor at the back of the appliance heat up
considerably. 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.
¥
Important: if the supply cable is damaged, it must
be replaced by authorized service or qualified
personnel using a special cable of the same type.
Positioning
¥ Unpack the cabinet and check that it is in good
condition and free of any transport damage.
¥ Place the refrigerator away from direct sunlight and
heat sources.
¥ Avoid prolonged exposure of the appliance to
direct sunlight.
¥ To guarantee a correct operation of the appliance
built into the kitchen unit, make sure that the
venting grille is always unobstructed in order to
ensure an adequate circulation of air which is
required to properly cool the compressor and the
condenser.
The climate classification can be found on the rating
