Safety Precautions
DISPOSAL INSTRUCTIONS – OUR ENVIRONMENT POLICY
Our refrigerators are only packaged using non-pollutant, environment-friendly, recyclable materials. We urge you to cooperate by disposing of the packaging properly. Contact your local dealer or the competent local organisations for the addresses of collection, recycling and disposal facilities. Never leave all or part of the packaging lying around. Packaging parts, and especially plastic bags, may represent a suffocation hazard for children.
Your old appliance must also be disposed of properly.
Important deliver the appliance to your local organisation authorised to collect scrapped appliances. Proper disposal allows the intelligent recovery of valuable materials. Refrigeration appliances contain gases which may damage the environment; it is important to ensure that the refrigeration circuit pipelines are not damaged until the competent service has taken delivery of the appliance. Before scrapping your refrigerator it is important to remove doors and leave shelves in position as for use, to ensure that children cannot accidentally become trapped inside during play. Also, cut the power supply lead and remove it and the plug.

Instructions for the Installer
3. INSTALLATION AND CONNECTION
3.1 Choosing the site
Always place the refrigerator in a dry place with satisfactory ventilation. Never expose it to direct sunlight or install it outdoors. Depending on its climate class (stated on the nameplate inside the refrigerator compartment), the appliance can be used in different temperature conditions:
Class Ambient temperature SN (Subnormal) from +10°C to +32°C N (Normal) from + 16° C to + 32° C ST (Subtropical) from + 18° C to + 38° C
T (Tropical) from + 18° C to + 43° C
Never place the refrigerator close to heat sources. If this is unavoidable, a suitable insulating panel must be used to allow the appliance to function properly. Otherwise, place the appliance at least 3 cm from electric or gas cookers and at least 30 cm from combustion or radiation heating systems.
To allow proper cooling of the condenser, the refrigerator must not be placed
too close to the wall. To prevent this, the appliance comes complete with two plastic spacers which must be fitted to the top of the condenser. If the refrigerator is installed underneath a wall cupboard, the distance between the two must be at least 5 cm.
Take care not to scratch or damage the floor when installing the appliance on
parquet or linoleum. If necessary, when positioning slide the refrigerator over pieces of wood or a mat to the point decided for connection to the electrical mains.
3.2 Positioning and levelling the appliance
Place the fridge on a stable and level floor. In case the floor is not perfectly level, use the two adjustable feet on the front part of the fridge (pict. 1). To ensure major stability, easier movement and a correct positioning of the product, two additional wheels (pict. 2) are present at the rear. In any case we recommend to move the fridge very carefully in order to avoid floor damage (especially in case of wooden floor).
1) 2)
3.3 Electrical connection
Before switching the refrigerator on for the first time, leave it vertical for at least two hours. Then connect the appliance's power supply lead to a mains socket with earth contact, installed in accordance with electrical safety regulations. The rated voltage and frequency are stated on the nameplate inside the refrigerator compartment. The appliance must be connected to the electrical mains and earthed in compliance with the relevant regulations and requirements. The appliance is able to withstand short fluctuations in voltage of no more than 15% less or 10% more than the rated voltage stated on the nameplate. If the power supply lead has to be replaced, this operation must only be carried out by an
authorised Smeg technical service engineer.
The socket must be accessible after the appliance has been placed.

Instructions for the User
4. PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
4.1 FAB 28
Refrigerator (A): compartment for storing fresh foods
Freezer compartment (B): compartment for storing
frozen foods and for freezing fresh foods.
To open the door, pull the handle towards you. (see
diagram below)
To close, push the door towards its hook and check
that it snaps shut.
4.2 Shelves
each refrigerator comes complete with several shelves which can be set at different heights by placing them on the runners provided. Each shelf has a safety fitting to prevent it from being pulled completely out or accidentally removed. To remove it from the appliance, lift it at the back and extract it. Then change the position of the shelf or shelves as you require. For easy removal of all internal accessories, the door has to be opened completely.
4.3 Bottle shelf
Like ordinary shelves, the bottle shelf can also be set at different heights. It can be fitted into the refrigerator compartment in two different positions: horizontally or with the front part raised so that the bottles can be placed on a slant. To remove the bottle shelf, lift it at the back and pull it outward.
Warning: if you wish to place bottles of above-average length on the
bottle shelf, it must be set at a height which will not prevent the door from being closed properly.
4.4 Refrigerator compartment defrosting water drain
The rear of the refrigerator compartment, underneath the refrigerating plate, has a channel and a hole
for collecting the defrosting water. To ensure the refrigerator can function properly, take care never to block this hole. It is best to check and clean it fairly regularly using a piece of stiff wire.
