3.2 Location
Refer to the installation
instructions for the
installation.
This appliance is not intended to be used
as a built-in appliance.
In case of different installation from
freestanding respecting space required
in use dimensions, the appliance will
function correctly but energy
consumption might increase slightly.
To ensure appliance's best functionality,
you should not install the appliance in the
nearby of the heat source (oven, stoves,
radiators, cookers or hobs) or in a place
with direct sunlight. Make sure that air
can circulate freely around the back of
the cabinet.
This appliance should be installed in a
dry, well ventilated indoor position.
To ensure best performance, if the
appliance is positioned below an
overhanging wall unit, the minimum
distance between the top of the cabinet
shall be maintained. Ideally, however,
the appliance should not be positioned
below overhanging wall units. One or
more adjustable feet at the base of the
cabinet ensure that the appliance stands
level.
CAUTION!
If you position the appliance
against the wall, use back
spacers provided or keep
the minimum distance
indicated in the installation
instructions.
CAUTION!
If you install the appliance
next to a wall, refer to the
installation instructions to
understand the minimum
distance between the wall
and the side of the appliance
where door hinges are to
provide enough space to
open the door when the
internal equipment is
removed (e.g. when
cleaning).
This appliance is intended to be used at
ambient temperature ranging from 10°C
to 43°C.
The correct operation of the
appliance can only be
guaranteed within the
specified temperature range.
ENGLISH 7
If you have any doubts
regarding where to install the
appliance, please turn to the
vendor, to our customer
service or to the nearest
Authorised Service Centre.
It must be possible to
disconnect the appliance
from the mains power
supply. The plug must
therefore be easily
accessible after installation.
3.3 Electrical connection
• Before plugging in, ensure that the
voltage and frequency shown on the
rating plate correspond to your
domestic power supply.
• The appliance must be earthed. The
power supply cable plug is provided
with a contact for this purpose. If the
domestic power supply socket is not
earthed, connect the appliance to a
separate earth in compliance with
current regulations, consulting a
qualified electrician.
• The manufacturer declines all
responsibility if the above safety
precautions are not observed.
• This appliance complies with the
E.E.C. Directives.
3.4 Levelling
When placing the appliance make sure
that it stands level. This can be achieved
by two adjustable feet at the bottom in
front.
3.5 Door reversibility
Please refer to the separate document
with instructions on installation and door
reversal.
CAUTION!
At every stage of reversing
the door protect the floor
from scratching with a
durable material.
4. CONTROL PANEL
4.1 Switching on
1. Insert the plug into the wall socket.
2. Turn the temperature regulator
clockwise to a medium setting.
4.2 Switching off
To turn off the appliance, turn the
temperature regulator to the "O" position.
4.3 Temperature regulation
The temperature is regulated
automatically. However, you can set a
temperature inside the appliance
yourself.
Choose the setting keeping in mind that
the temperature inside the appliance
depends on:
• room temperature,
• frequency of opening the door,
• quantity of food stored,
• appliance location.
A medium setting is generally the most
suitable one.
To operate the appliance:
1. Turn the temperature regulator
clockwise to obtain a lower
temperature inside the appliance.
2. Turn the temperature regulator
counterclockwise to obtain a higher
temperature inside the appliance.

5. DAILY USE
CAUTION!
This refrigerating appliance
is not suitable for freezing
foodstuffs.
5.1 Positioning the door
shelves
To permit storage of food packages of
various sizes, the door shelves can be
placed at different heights.
1. Gradually pull the shelf up until it
comes free.
2. Reposition as required.
5.2 Movable shelves
The walls of the refrigerator are equipped
with a series of runners so that the
shelves can be positioned as desired.
Do not move the glass shelf
above the vegetable drawer
to ensure correct air
circulation.
5.3 Vegetable drawer
There is a special drawer in the bottom
part of the appliance suitable for storage
of fruits and vegetables.
5.4 Storage of frozen food
When activating an appliance for the first
time or after a period out of use, before
putting the products in the compartment
let the appliance run at least 3 hours.
Keep the food no closer than 15 mm
from the door.
CAUTION!
In the event of accidental
defrosting, for example due
to a power failure, if the
power has been off for
longer than the value shown
on rating plate under "rising
time", the defrosted food
must be consumed quickly
or cooked immediately then
cooled and then re-frozen.
5.5 Thawing
Deep-frozen or frozen food, prior to
being consumed, can be thawed in the
refrigerator or inside a plastic bag under
cold water.
This operation depends on the time
available and on the type of food. Small
pieces may even be cooked still frozen.
6. HINTS AND TIPS
6.1 Hints for energy saving
• If the ambient temperature is high and
the temperature control is set to low
temperature and the appliance is fully
loaded, the compressor may run
continuously, causing frost or ice
formation on the evaporator. In this
case, set the temperature control
toward higher temperature to allow
ENGLISH 9
automatic defrosting and to save
energy this way.
• Ensure a good ventilation. Do not
cover the ventilation grilles or holes.
6.2 Hints for storage of frozen
food
• The medium temperature setting
ensures good preservation of frozen
food products.
Higher temperature setting inside the
appliance may lead to shorter shelf
life.
• The whole freezer compartment is
suitable for storage of frozen food
products.
• Leave enough space around the food
to allow air to circulate freely.
• For adequate storage refer to food
packaging label to see the shelf life of
food.
• It is important to wrap the food in such
a way that prevents water, humidity or
condensation from getting inside.
6.3 Shopping tips
After grocery shopping:
• Ensure that the packaging is not
damaged - the food could be
deteriorated. If the package is swollen
or wet, it might have not been stored
in the optimal conditions and
defrosting may have already started.
• To limit the defrosting process buy
frozen goods at the end of your
grocery shopping and transport them
in a thermal and insulated cool bag.
• Place the frozen foods immediately in
the freezer after coming back from the
shop.
• If food has defrosted even partially, do
not re-freeze it. Consume it as soon
as possible.
• Respect the expiry date and the
storage information on the package.
