INSTALLATION

The appliance must be handled and installed

by two or more persons - risk of injury. Use

protective gloves to unpack and install - risk of

Installation, including water supply (if any) and

electrical connections, and repairs must be carried

out by a qualied technician. Do not repair or

replace any part of the appliance unless specically

stated in the user manual. Keep children away

from the installation site. After unpacking the

appliance, make sure that it has not been damaged

during transport. In the event of problems, contact

the dealer or your nearest After-sales Service. Once

installed, packaging waste (plastic, styrofoam

parts etc.) must be stored out of reach of children-

risk of suocation. The appliance must be

disconnected from the power supply before any

installation operation - risk of electric shock.

During installation, make sure the appliance does

not damage the power cable- risk of re or electric

shock. Only activate the appliance when the

installation has been completed.

Be careful not to damage the oors (e.g.

parquet) when moving the appliance. Install the

appliance on a oor or support strong enough to

take its weight and in a place suitable for its size

and use. Make sure the appliance is not near a heat

source and that the four feet are stable and resting

on the oor, adjusting them as required, and check

that the appliance is perfectly level using a spirit

level. Wait at least two hours before switching the

appliance on, to ensure that the refrigerant circuit

is fully ecient.

To guarantee adequate ventilation, leave a

space on both sides and above the appliance. The

distance between the rear of the appliance and

the wall behind the appliance should be 50mm,

to avoid access to hot surfaces. A reduction of this

space will increase the Energy consumption of

product.

WARNING: To avoid a hazard due to instability,

positioning or xing of the appliance must be

done in accordance with the manufacturer

instructions. It is forbidden to place the refrigerator

in such way that the metal hose of gas stove, metal

gas or water pipes, or electrical wires are in contact

with the refrigerator back wall (condenser coil).

ELECTRICAL WARNINGS

It must be possible to disconnect the appliance

from the power supply by unplugging it if plug is

accessible, or by a multi-pole switch installed

upstream of the socket in accordance with the

wiring rules and the appliance must be earthed in

conformity with national electrical safety

standards.

Do not use extension leads, multiple sockets or

adapters. The electrical components must not be

accessible to the user after installation. Do not

use the appliance when you are wet or barefoot.

Do not operate this appliance if it has a damaged

power cable or plug, if it is not working properly,

or if it has been damaged or dropped.

If the supply cord is damaged, it must be

replaced with an identical one by the manufacturer,

its service agent or similarly qualied persons in

order to avoid a hazard- risk of electric shock.

CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE

WARNING: Ensure that the appliance is

switched o and disconnected from the power

supply before performing any maintenance

operation; never use steam cleaning equipment-

risk of electric shock.

Do not use abrasive or harsh cleaners such as

window sprays, scouring cleansers, ammable

ENERGY SAVING TIPS

Install the appliance in a dry, well ventilated room far away from any

heat source (eg. radiator, cooker, etc.) and in a place not exposed

directly to the sun. If required, use an insulating plate.

To guarantee adequate ventilation follow installation instructions.

Insucient ventilation at the back of the product increases energy

consumption and decreases cooling eciency.

Frequent door opening might cause an increase in Energy

Consumption.

The internal temperature of the appliance and the Energy Consumption

may be aected also by the ambient temperature, as well as location

of the appliance. Temperature setting should take into consideration

these factors.

Reduce door opening to a minimum.

When thawing frozen food, place in the refrigerator. The low

temperature of the frozen products cools the food in the refrigerator.

Allow warm food and drinks to cool down before placing in the

appliance.

Positioning of the shelves in the refrigerator has no impact on the

ecient usage of energy. Food should be placed on the shelves in

such way to ensure proper air circulation (food should not touch each

other and distance between food and rear wall should be kept).

You can increase storage capacity of frozen food by removing baskets

and, if present, Stop Frost shelf.

Do not worry about noises coming from the compressor which are

described as normal noises in this product's Quick Guide.
