BEFORE USING THE FRIDGE-FREEZER

Your new appliance is a combined fridge-freezer exclusively for domestic use. The freezer compartment can be used for freezing fresh and cooked food, making ice cubes, and storing frozen and deep-frozen food;

defrosting is a manual procedure. The refrigerator compartment, which has an automatic defrost feature, is used for the storage

of fresh food and beverages.

To get the most out of your new appliance, read the user handbook thoroughly. The handbook contains a description of the appliance and useful tips for storing food.

Keep this handbook for future consultation.

1.After unpacking the appliance, make sure that

the doors shut properly. Any damage must be reported to your dealer within 24 hours after delivery of the appliance.

2.Wait at least two hours without moving the appliance before switching on. This will give the refrigerant circuit time to settle and operate efficiently.

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 regulations.

SAFEGUARDING THE ENVIRONMENT

1.Packing

The packaging material is entirely recyclable, and marked with 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.Appliance

The appliance is made using recyclable materials. Disposal must be carried out in accordance with local environmental regulations for waste disposal.

Make the appliance unusable by cutting off the power cord. The appliance must be delivered to an authorised collection centre for the recovery of refrigerant gas.
