Safety - a good habit to get into.
ATTENTION
Read your manual carefully since it contains instructions which
will ensure safe installation, use and maintenance of your
appliance.
Your Refrigerator is built to International safety standards
(EN60) ans has been awarded the European approval mark
(IMQ) for compliance with UK electrical safety requirements.
It also meets the EC standards on the prevention and elimination of readio interference (EC directive 87/308 - 02.06.89).
1. This appliance must not be installed outdoors - not even in
an area protected by a roof. It is extremely dangerous to
leave it exposed to rain or storms.
2. It must only be used by adults and exclusively to refrigerate and freeze foodstuffs, following the instructions for use
contained in this manual.
3. Do not ever touch or handle the appliance with bare feet
or with wet hands or feet.
4. It is highly recommended that you do not use extension
cords or multiple socket adapters. If the refrigerator is installed between cabinets, make sure that the cord is not
bent or dangerously pinched or compressed.
5. Never pull on the cord or the refrigerator to remove the
plug from the wall socket - this is very dangerous.
6. Never touch the cooling components within the appliance,
especially with wet hands because this could result in injury.
Never put ice cubes just removed from the freezer into your
mouth because they could stick to your mouth and cause
burns.
7. Never clean the appliance or perform maintenance without
first disconnecting it from the electrical mains. Turning the
thermostat knob to the setting does not suffice to break
all electrical contact with the mains.
8. Before having your old refrigerator picked up for disposal,
remove or make inoperable any locking devices to prevent
children who might play in or around the appliance from
being locked inside.
9. Before calling for service/assistance in the case of malfunction, consult the chapter entitled “Is There a Problem?
to determine whether it is possible to eliminate the problem.
do not try to repair the problem by trying to access the internal
components of the appliance.
10. If damaged, the power supply cord on this appliance
must necessarily be replaced by our service centre because
special tools are required for replacement.
Installation
To ensure that the appliance operates properly and to
reduce energy consumption, it is important that the
appliance is installed correctly.
Ventilation
The compressor and condenser generate heat and, therefore,
need to be ventilated properly. Avoid placing refrigerator in
direct sunlight, or next to an electric stove or similar appliance.
Areas not adequately ventilated are not suitable for this
appliance.
During installation, make sure not to cover or obstruct the
grates that allow for proper ventilation of the appliance.
Away from Heat
Avoid positioning the appliance in a place where it is directly
exposed to sunlight or near an oven, cook top or the like.
Electrical Connection and Earthing
Before proceeding with the electrical connection, make sure
that the voltage indicated on the rating plate, located at the
bottom left near the vegetable crisper, corresponds to the
mains voltage in your home and that the socket is fitted with
a standard earthing wire in accordance with safety standards for 46/90 systems. If the socket is not fitted with an
earthing wire, the manufacturer will not be held liability for
any damages and or injuries arising out of the use of the
appliance. Do not use multiple sockets or adapters.
Insufficient power?
The electrical socket must be able to handle the maximum
power load of the appliance, which is indicated on the rating
plate located at the bottom left next to the vegetable crisper.
Before making the electrical connection ...
After the appliance has been delivered, place it in the vertical upright position and wait at least 3 hours before inserting
the plug into the socket in order to ensure that it functions
properly.
For English Market only
The appliance is fitted with a continental 2-èin plug for factory testing. Before installation the plug should be cut off.
The appliance is designed to be installed in a switched spur
outlet fused at 13 Ampere. If the installation requires a 13
Ampere plug type to be fitted it should be conform to BSI
1363.

Storage - getting the most out of your appliance.
Storing Food in the Refrigerator Compartment
Food Storage Time Location in the Refrigerator
Wrapped meat and cleaned fish
(use plastic wrap or pack in plastic bags)
Fresh cheese 3 or 4 days
Eggs 1 month In special egg rack on door.
Butter, margarine On any shelf.
Cooked or precooked food
(placer in air-tight containers and when cool store in
refrigerator)
Sausages, salami, sandwich meats in general, fresh
pasta, custards,puddings, chocolates, cream pastries,
bread, dry pastries, red tomatoes
Bottled products, milk, drinks, yoghurt On special door shelves.
Fruits and legumes In vegetable crisper.
What Not to Store in the Refrigerator
Garlic (transmits odour), onions and leeks.
Bananas (they will turn black).
Citrus fruits.
Potatoes and root vegetables (store in dark, dry places).
- Air in the refrigerator circulates naturally so that colder,
heavier air tends to descend towards the bottom. This is why
meat and fish should be stored just above the crisper.
2 or 3 days
3 or 4 days On any shelf.
3 or 4 days On any shelf.
- Remember to follow our instructions on the storage life of
foods: If not stored correctly, even the freshest food will
deteriorate quite quickly.
- Contrary to popular belief, cooked foods do not keep longer
than fresh food.
- Do not store liquids in unsealed containers since this will
increase the humidity and lead to the formation of frost in
the refrigerator.

Energy Saving Tips
- Install the Appliance Correctly
This means that the appliance should be installed away from
heat sources or direct sunlight in a well ventilated room.
- Correct Temperature Settings
Set the refrigerator temperature knob to one of the middle
settings. Very cold temperature settings will not only consume
a great deal of energy but will neither improve nor lengthen
the storage life of the food. Excessively cold temperatures
may ruin vegetables, cold cuts and cheese.
- Do Not Overfill Your Appliance
Remember that proper storage of food requires good air
circulation. Overfilling your appliance will hamper proper air
circulation and overwork the compressor.
GBGB

- Keep the Door Closed
Open the refrigerator only when necessary; remember that
every time you open the door most of the cold air will be
lost. To bring the temperature back to the proper level, the
motor must run for a considerable amount of time, consuming
a substantial amount of energy.
- Check the Seal on the Door
Keep the seal clean and soft so that it fits tightly against the
door to ensure that no cold air is lost.
- Never Put Food in the Refrigeror while Still Hot
A container of hot food in the refrigerator will increase the
temperature significantly; allow food to cool to room temperature before storing.

Caring for Your Appliance
Before doing any cleaning, disconnect the appliance
from the electricity (by pulling out the plug or turning
off the general switch in your home).
Defrosting
Do not use mechanical devices or instruments other
than those recommended by the manufacturer to speed
up the defrosting process.
It is advisable now and then to remove the frost which forms
on the evaporator.
Take care to not use sharp objects for this purpose since they
could pierce the refrigeration circuit and permanently damage
the appliance.
Proper cleaning is very important in order to guarantee that
the refrigerator operates efficiently and does not consume
excess energy needlessly.
To defrost the evaporator completely, turn the thermostat
knob to “ ” (fig. 1). The water from the frost will collect in
the special tray.
When finished, dry the tray and put it back in place.
To start the appliance again, turn the thermostat knob to the
appropriate setting.
Cleaning and Maintenance
- Your appliance is manufactured with hygienic, odourless
materials. To preserve these characteristics, always use sealed
containers to store foods in order to prevent spills, stains and
the formation of difficult to remove odours.
- Only use a water and bicarbonate solution to clean the
applianc. Clean the internal and exterior of your appliance
with a sponge soaked in a warm water and sodium
bicarbonate solution, which is also a good disinfectant. If
you do not have any sodium bicarbonate at home, use a
neutral soap.
- What not to use: Do not use abrasive detergents, bleach or
detergents containing ammonia. Never use solvent based
products.
- All removable parts can be cleaned by soaking them in hot
soapy water or detergent. Remember to dry them thoroughly
before replacing them.
- Discontinued use of the appliance: If the appliance is not in
use for any length of time, remember to clean the interior
and dry thoroughly, leaving the door open to prevent the
formation of odours and mould.
- Replacing the light bulb. The bulb for lighting the interior of
the appliance is located at the back of the thermostat box.
Unscrew the burned out bulb and replace it with another
bulb with a wattage no higher than 15 Watt, follow the
instructions illustrated in fig. 2.
Before carrying out this operation, disconnect the appliance
from the electricity (to do so, turn off the general switch in
the house or remove the plug for the appliance from the
socket).
