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.
