Safety information

information Safety

•In order to avoid the creation of a flammable gas-air mixture if a leak in the refrigerating circuit occurs, the size of the room in which the appliance may be sited depends on the amount of refrigerant used.

•Never start up an appliance showing any signs of damage. If in doubt, consult your dealer. The room must be 1 m³ in size for every 8 g of R-600a refrigerant inside the appliance.

The amount of refrigerant in your particular appliance is shown on the identification plate inside the appliance.

•Refrigerant squirting out of the pipes could ignite or cause an eye injury. When refrigerant leaks from the pipe, avoid any naked flames and move anything flammable away from the product and ventilate the room immediately.

- Failing to do so may result in fire or explosion.

Additional tips for proper usage

•In the event of a power failure, call the local office of your electric company and ask how long the failure is going to last.

-Most power failures that are corrected in an hour or two will not affect your refrigerator temperatures. However, you should minimize the number of door openings while the power is off.

-Should the power failure last more than 24 hours, remove and discard all frozen food.

•The refrigerator might not operate consistently (frozen contents can thaw or temperatures can become too warm in the frozen food compartment) if sited for an extended period of time in a location where ambient air temperatures are constantly below the temperatures for which the appliance is designed.

•In case of particular foods, keeping it under refrigeration can have a bad effect on preservation due to its properties.

•Your appliance is frost free, which means there is no need to manually defrost your appliance. This will be carried out automatically.

•Temperature rise during defrosting complies with ISO requirements. If you want to prevent an undue rise in the temperature of frozen food while the appliance defrosts, wrap the frozen food in several layers of newspaper.

•Do not re-freeze frozen foods that have thawed completely.

•The temperature of two star section (sections) or compartment

(compartments) which have two star symbol () is slightly higher than other freezer compartment (compartments).

The two star section (sections) or compartment (compartments) is (are) based on the instruction and/or the condition as delivered.

Saving Energy Tips

•Install the appliance in a cool, dry room with adequate ventilation. Ensure that it is not exposed to direct sunlight and never put it near a direct source of heat (a radiator, for example).

•Not to block any vents and grilles is recommended for energy efficiency.

•Allow warm food to cool down before placing it in the appliance.

•Put frozen food in the refrigerator to thaw. You can then use the low temperatures of the frozen products to cool food in the refrigerator.

•Do not keep the door of the refrigerator open for too long when putting food in or taking food out. The shorter the time the door is open, the less frost build-up you’ll have in the freezer.

•It is recommended to install the refrigerator with clearance to the back and sides. This will help reduce power consumption and keep your energy bills lower.

•For the most efficient use of energy, please keep the all inner fittings such as baskets, drawers, shelves on the position supplied by manufacturer.

This appliance is intended to be used in household and similar applications such as

•staff kitchen areas in shops, offices and other working environments;

•farm houses and by clients in hotels, motels and other residential type environments;

•bed and breakfast type environments;

•catering and similar non-retail applications.

STEP  2  Flooring

• The surface to install the refrigerator must support a fully loaded refrigerator.

• To protect the floor, put a large piece of cardboard on each leg of the refrigerator.

• Once the refrigerator is in its final position, do not move it unless necessary to protect the floor. If you have to, use a thick paper or cloth such as old carpets along the movement path.

NOTE

If the refrigerator cannot pass through the entrance due to its size, see the Door removal for entrance section in the Installation chapter.

STEP  3  Adjust the levelling feet

CAUTION

•The refrigerator must be levelled on a flat, solid floor. Failing to do so can cause damage to the refrigerator or physical injury.

•Levelling must be performed with an empty refrigerator. Make sure no food items remain inside the refrigerator.

•For safety reasons, adjust the front side a little higher than the rear side.

The refrigerator can be levelled using the front legs that have a special screw (leveller) for levelling purposes. Use a flat-head screwdriver for levelling.

To adjust the height of the freezer side:

Insert a flat-head screwdriver into the leveller of the freezer-side front leg. Turn the leveller clockwise to raise, or turn it counter clockwise to lower.

To adjust the height of the fridge side:

Insert a flat-head screwdriver into the leveller of the fridge-side front leg. Turn the leveller clockwise to raise, or turn it counter clockwise to lower.
