If you wish to dispose of the refrigerator/freezer, throw it away after removing the door or its seals.

In this way, it is not possible for a child to remain trapped inside it.

This appliance contains a small amount of isobutane refrigerant (R600a), a

natural gas with high environmental compatibility that is, however, also combustible. When transporting and installing the appliance, care should be taken to ensure that no parts of the refrigerating circuit are damaged.

Refrigerant squirting out of the pipes could ignite or cause an eye injury. If a leak is detected, avoid any naked flames or potential sources of ignition and air the room in which the appliance is standing for several minutes.

In order to avoid the creation of a flammable gasair 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.

The room must be 1m3 in size for every 8 g of R600a refrigerant inside the appliance. The amount of refrigerant in your particular appliance is shown on the identification plate inside the appliance.

Never start up an appliance showing any signs of damage. If in doubt, consult your dealer.

Caution

Do not store too much food in the appliance.

When you open the door, an item may fall out and cause personal injury or material damage.

Do not put bottles or any kinds of glass in the freezer.

The container may break and cause personal injury.

If the wall socket is loose, do not insert the power plug.

• It could be cause electric shock or fire.

Do not disconnect the power cord by pulling on it.

You may disconnect a wire and cause a short circuit.

Do not store articles on top of the appliance.

When you open or close the door, the articles may fall and cause personal injury or material damage.

INSTALLING THE REFRIGERATOR/FREEZER

Allow an adequate space and install the refrigerator/freezer on a firm, level floor.

If the appliance is not level, there may be unusual noises and poor cooling.

Wait for at least one hour before plugging the appliance in.

Clean the refrigerator/freezer.

• Wipe and clean the appliance inside and outside with a damp cloth.

Plug the refrigerator/freezer into a wall socket used exclusively by this appliance.

• This appliance must be properly earthed.

Place the food in the refrigerator/freezer.

• It is recommended that you wait for the appliance to cool for 2-3 hours before storing food in it.

Warning

Use of an earthed socket exclusively for the appliance:

• If you are using a socket with an earthing terminal, you do not require a separate earthing connection.

Use of a non-earthed socket:

• Connect the “earthing wire” to the copper plate and bury it at a depth of at least 25 cm in the ground.

The appliance must be positioned so that the plug is accessible after installation.

LEVELLING

If the front of the appliance is slightly higher than the rear, the door can be opened and closed more easily.

The appliance tilts down to the left.

Turn the left adjusting leg in the direction of the arrow with a flat head screwdriver until the appliance is level.

PREPARING THE REFRIGERATOR /FREEZER

To prepare your appliance for use and check that it is running correctly, take the following steps.

Install all shelves and compartments removed during transport in the correct positions.

You are advised to clean the appliance and accessories before switching the appliance on for the first time to remove any dust that accumulated during packing and shipping.

Please clean the water tank with an edible detergent, especially if there is an odor.

Switch on the appliance for approximately 2 hours before loading it with frozen food for the first time. Do not load with frozen food until the temperature of freezer shows at least -18°C.

If you want to store frozen food as rapidly as possible, set the temperature control to the coldest temperature (-25°C) and let the appliance operate for one hour.

The appliance is preset for normal operation. We recommend temperatures of +3°C in the refrigerator and -19°C in the freezer.

The interior light of the appliance will light up when the door is open.

Your appliance is operated by a compressor which switches “on and off” to maintain the internal temperature. When the compressor is new, it requires running in for a period of up to five months. During this period, it may be slightly noisy. This is quite normal and does not represent a fault.

Store food once the temperature in the refrigerator is sufficiently low. It takes a few hours after starting the refrigerator to reach the proper temperature.

If the appliance does not operate correctly, check the electricity supply. If the problem persists, contact your dealer.
