WARNINGS

It is most important that this instruction book should be retained with the appliance for future reference. Should the appliance be sold or transferred to another owner, or should you move house and leave the appliance, always ensure that the book is supplied with the appliance in order that the new owner can be acquainted with the functioning of the appliance and the relevant warnings.

These warnings are provided in the interest of safety. You must read them carefully before installing or using the appliance.

ªThis appliance is designed to be operated by adults. Children should not be allowed to tamper with the controls or play with the product.

ªAny electrical work required to install this appliance should be carried out by a qualiﬁed electrician or competent person.

ªThis product should be serviced by an authorized Service Centre, and only genuine spare parts should be used.

ªIt is dangerous to alter the speciﬁcations or modify this product in any way.

ªCare must be taken to ensure that the appliance does not stand on the electrical supply cable.

ªThe domestic refrigerators and freezers are designed to be used speciﬁcally for the storage of edible foodstuffs only.

ªFrozen food must not be re-frozen once it has been thawed out.

ªManufacturers’ storage recommendations should be strictly adhered to. Refer to relevant instructions.

ªThere are working parts in this product which heat up. Always ensure that there is adequate ventilation as a failure to do this will result in component failure and possible food loss. See installation instructions.

ªParts which heat up should not be exposed. Wherever possible the back of the product should be against a wall.

ªBefore any cleaning or maintenance work is carried out, be sure to switch off and unplug the appliance.

ªIf the appliance has been transported horizontally, it is possible that the oil contained in the compressor ﬂows in the refrigerant circuit. It is advisable to wait at least two hours before connecting the appliance to allow the oil to ﬂow back in the compressor.

ªThe inner lining of the appliance consists of channels through which the refrigerant passes. If these should be punctured this would damage the appliance beyond repair and cause food loss.

DO NOT USE SHARP INSTRUMENTS to scrape off frost or ice. Frost may be removed by using the scraper provided. Under no circumstances should solid ice be forced off the liner. Solid ice should be allowed to thaw when defrosting the appliance. See defrost instructions.

ªDo not place carbonated or ﬁzzy drinks in the freezer as it creates pressure on the container, which may cause it to explode, resulting in damage to the appliance.

ªThis appliance is heavy. Care should be taken when moving it.

ªIce lollies can cause frost burns if consumed straight from the appliance.

ªUnder no circumstances should you attempt to repair the appliance yourself.

Repairs carried out by inexperienced persons may cause injury or more serious malfunctioning. Refer to your local Service Centre, and always insist on genuine spare parts.

ªThis appliance does not contain gasses which could damage the ozone layer, in either its refrigerant circuit or insulation materials; it must nevertheless be disposed of in a proper manner, in accordance with regulations for protection of the environment.

INSTALLATION

Caution

If this appliance featuring magnetic door seals is to replace an older appliance having a spring lock (latch) on the door or lid, be sure to make that spring lock unusable before you discard the old appliance. This will prevent it from becoming a death-trap for a child.

Location

Place the appliance away from all heat sources, such as: radiators, heating stoves, direct sunlight, etc.

Best results are obtained with a room temperature ranging between +18°C and +43°C.

Make sure that there is nothing at the back, at the top and at the bottom of the appliance to obstruct air circulation.

For a more efﬁcient operation of the appliance, the minimum distance between the top of the appliance and other overhanging kitchen furniture, if any, should be at least 100 mm (see Fig. 1 - A). However, the best solution would be that shown in Fig. 1 - B with no overhanging furniture.

Two adjustable feet make it possible to accurately level the appliance.

Power connection

Before plugging in the appliance to the mains socket, check that the voltage and frequency indicated on the appliance’s rating plate are the same as those provided by your home power supply. A 6% ﬂuctuation above or below rated voltage is acceptable.

For operation at different voltages, a suitable transformer should be used.

The appliance MUST be connected to an efﬁcient earth or ground tap.

The supply-lead plug in fact incorporates a special earth or ground contact for this purpose. If by any chance the sockets of your domestic wiring system are not earthed, the appliance must be connected to a separate earth or ground wire by a qualiﬁed electrician, in accordance with existing safety regulations.

The manufacturer declines to accept any liability if this accident-prevention procedure is not followed.

This appliance complies with EEC directive number 87/308 of 2/6/87 relative to radio interference suppression.

This appliance complies with the following E.E.C. Directives:

-73/23 EEC of 19.2.73 (Low Voltage Directive) and subsequent modiﬁcations;

-89/336 EEC of 3.5.89 (Electromagnetic Compatibility Directive) and subsequent modiﬁcations.

Cleaning the interior

Before using the appliance for the ﬁrst time, wash the interior and all internal accessories with lukewarm water and some neutral soap so as to remove the typical smell of a brand-new product, then dry thoroughly. Do not use detergents which will leave an odour or abrasive powders on the interior, as these will damage the ﬁnish.
