BEFORE USING THE APPLIANCE
•Your new appliance is designed exclusively for domestic use.
For best use of your appliance, carefully read the user’s handbook which contains a description of the appliance and advice on storing and preserving food.
Keep this handbook for future consultation.
1.After unpacking, make sure that the appliance is undamaged and that the door closes perfectly tight. Any damage must be reported to your dealer within 24 hours after delivery of the appliance.
2.Wait at least two hours before switching the appliance on in order to ensure the refrigerant circuit is fully efficient.
3.Installation of the appliance and electrical connections must be carried out by a qualified electrician, in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions and local safety regulations
4.Clean the inside of the appliance before using it.
SAFEGUARDING THE ENVIRONMENT
1.Packing 
The packaging material is 100% recyclable and carries the recycling symbol. Follow local regulations for scrapping. Keep the packaging materials (plastic bags, polystyrene parts, etc.) out of reach of children, as they are potentially dangerous.
2.Scrapping
The appliance is manufactured using recyclable material.
This appliance is marked according to the European directive 2002/96/EC on Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE). By making sure this appliance is disposed of correctly, the user will help prevent potentially negative consequences for the environment and the health of persons.
The symbol 
on the appliance, or on the accompanying documents, indicates that this appliance should not be treated as domestic waste but must be taken to a suitable collection point for the recycling of electrical and electronic equipment.
Before scrapping, make the appliance unusable by cutting off the power cable and removing the doors and shelves so that children cannot easily climb inside the appliance.
Disposal must be carried out in accordance with local environmental regulations for waste disposal. Deliver the appliance immediately to an authorized dump; do not leave it unattended even for a few days, since it is potentially dangerous for children. For more information regarding the treatment, recovery and recycling of this appliance, contact your local office, the domestic waste collection service or the shop where you purchased the product.
Information:
This appliance does not contain CFC (the refrigerant circuit contains R134a) or HFC (the refrigerant circuit contains R600a) (see the rating plate inside the appliance).
Appliances with Isobutane (R600a): isobutane is a naturally occurring, low
environmental impact gas. Caution is required, however, because isobutane is flammable. Therefore, ensure that the pipelines of the refrigerant circuit do not get damaged.
Declaration of conformity
•This appliance is designed to store food and is manufactured in conformity with European Directive 90/128/EEC, 02/72/EEC and Regulation (EC) No. 1935/2004

PRECAUTIONS AND GENERAL RECOMMENDATIONS
•Use the refrigerator compartment only for the storage of fresh food and the freezer compartment only for the storage of frozen food, the freezing of fresh food, and to make ice cubes.
•During installation, make sure the appliance does not damage the power cable.
•Do not store glass containers with liquids in the freezer since they may burst.
•Do not eat ice cubes or ice lollies immediately after taking them out of the freezer since they may cause cold burns.
•Before servicing or cleaning the appliance, unplug it from the mains or disconnect the electrical power supply.
•Make sure that the appliance is not near a heat source.
•Do not store or use petrol, gas or flammable liquids in the vicinity of the appliance or other electrical appliances. The fumes can create a fire hazard or explosion.
•To ensure adequate ventilation, leave a space on both sides and above the appliance and follow the installation instructions.
•Keep the appliance ventilation openings free.
•All appliances equipped with an ice maker or water dispenser must be connected to a mains water supply that delivers potable water only (with water pressure between 1.7 and 8.1 bar (25 and 117 PSI)). Ice makers and/ or water dispensers not directly connected to a mains water supply must be filled with potable water only.
•Install and level the appliance on a floor strong enough to take its weight and in an area suitable for its size and use.
•For the water connection, use the pipe supplied with the new appliance and do not use that of the previous appliance.
•The appliance must be handled and installed by two or more persons.
•Place the appliance in a dry and wellventilated place. The appliance is arranged to operate in places where the temperature comes within the following ranges, according to the climatic class indicated on the dataplate: The appliance may not work properly if it is left for a long period at a temperature above or below the indicated range.

•Be careful not to damage the floors when you move the appliance (e.g. parquet flooring).
•Do not use mechanical, electric or chemical means other than those recommended by the Manufacturer to speed up the defrost process.
•Do not damage the refrigerator’s refrigerant circuit pipes.
•Do not use or place electrical appliances inside the compartments if they are not of the type expressly authorised by the Manufacturer.
•This appliance is not designed for use by young children or the infirm without supervision.
•To avoid the risk of children being trapped and therefore suffocating, do not allow them to play or hide inside the appliance.

HOW TO OPERATE THE REFRIGERATOR/ FREEZER COMPARTMENT
•Connect the appliance to the mains water and power supply (see the Installation manual).
•When the appliance is connected to the power supply, the freezer display shows two hyphens until the optimum temperature is reached, whereas the refrigerator display shows a temperature of +5°C (factory-set).
•When the appliance is warm, the red alarm LED will blink and the acoustic alarm will sound, indicating that the appliance has not yet reached the optimal temperature for storage of foodstuffs.
•Press the Reset 
button to deactivate the acoustic alarm.
•The red light 
will stop flashing when the freezer compartment reaches a suitable temperature for preserving food. At this point food can be loaded into the freezer compartment.
•After being switched on, the refrigerator needs 2/3 hours to reach the correct temperature to store a typical volume of food in the refrigerator compartment.
IMPORTANT:
•If food is placed in the refrigerator before the appliance has reached a suitable temperature for storing food, it may deteriorate.
•Turning the refrigerator and freezer controls to a cooler than recommended setting will not cool the compartments any faster.
•Do not place food near the air vents in the refrigerator compartment.
•A built-in exterior moisture control continuously guards against moisture build-up on the front edges; Do not be alarmed if these edges sometimes feel warm to the touch.
•The inside light comes on when any door is opened.
