Your new appliance is 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.

the door shuts 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.

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.

with R134a) or HFCs (replaced with R600a -

Isobutane). For more information, refer to the

identification data plate affixed to the appliance.

BEFORE USING THE REFRIGERATOR

SAFEGUARDING THE ENVIRONMENT

1gb33020a.fm5 Page 4 Tuesday, February 20, 2001 4:37 PM

•Use the refrigerator compartment only for

storing fresh food and beverages and use the

freezer compartment only for storing frozen

food, freezing fresh food and making ice cubes.

•Do not cover or obstruct the air vents of the

appliance.

•Do not store liquidsin glass containers in the

freezer compartment - danger of bursting.

•Donoteatice cubesoricelollies immediately

after taking them out of the freezer

compartment - risk of “cold”burns.

•Do not allow children to play or hide inside

the appliance - risk of becoming trapped and

suffocating.

• Before servicing or cleaning the

appliance, unplug it from the mains or

disconnect the electrical power supply.

•The power cable may only be replaced by an

authorised person.

Declaration of conformity

•This appliance is intended to come intocontact

with foodstuffs and conforms to D.L. 108 of

25.01.1992 (European Directive 89/109/EEC).

Appliances with Isobutane (R600a)

Isobutane is a natural gas having low

environmental impact. Caution is required,

however, since isobutane is flammable.

Therefore, it is essential to ensure that

refrigerant pipelines are not damaged.

temperaturebetween+10°Cand+38°C.Optimal

performance is obtained at temperatures

between +16°C and +32°C.

Switching on the refrigerator for the first time

Insert the plug into the mains socket.

The thermostat is used to adjust the temperature

of both compartments: refrigerator and freezer.

How to adjust the temperature of the

compartments:

1. Forcorrectoperationandoptimumstorageof

food, follow instructions given in the

enclosed product sheet for thermostat

adjustment.

2. To adjust the temperature in the refrigerator

compartment, turn the thermostat control knob:

•lowest numbers 1-2/MIN for the LEAST

COLD internal temperatures;

•highest numbers 5-7/MAX for the

COLDEST internal temperatures.

HOW TO OPERATE THE REFRIGERATOR

COMPARTMENT

1gb33020a.fm5 Page 6 Tuesday, February 20, 2001 4:37 PM

The freezer is a star compartment.

This compartment can be used to store frozen

foods for the period of time indicated on

packaging. The freezer can also be used to

freeze fresh food by positioning it on the rack;

place frozen food in the lower part of the

compartment so that there is no contact with

fresh food that has yet to be frozen.

The quantity of fresh food that can be frozen

in 24 hours is shown on the rating plate.

Important:

Before freezing, wrap and seal fresh food in:

•aluminium foil, cling film, air and water-tight

plasticbags,polythene containerswith lidsor

freezer containers suitable for freezing fresh

food.

•In the event of a power cut, the freezer

compartment will maintain a sufficiently low

temperature for food storage. However, it is

advisable to avoid opening the compartment

door during such periods.

Important:

The table alongside shows the recommended

maximum storage time for frozen fresh foods.

When purchasing frozen food products:

•Ensure that the packaging is not damaged

(frozen food in damaged packaging may

have deteriorated). If the package is swollen

or has damp patches, it may not have been

stored under optimal conditions and

defrosting may have already begun.

•When shopping, leave frozen food

purchases until last and transport the

products in a thermally insulated cool bag.

•Place the items in the freezer compartment

as soon as you get home.

•If food has defrosted even partially, do not re-

freeze it. Consume within 24 hours.

•Avoid, or reduce temperature variations to

the minimum. Respect the best-before date

on the package.

•Always observe the storage information on

the package.

Making ice cubes

•Fill the ice cube tray 3/4 with water and place

it at the bottom of the freezer compartment.

Do not use sharp or pointed instruments to

detach the tray if it is stuck to the

compartment bottom.

Note: Do not use sharp or pointed metal

instruments to scrape off ice; do not heat the

freezer compartment artificially.

Periodically clean the inside of the

refrigerator compartment.

Defrosting of the refrigerator compartment is

completely automatic.

Droplets of water on the rear wall of the

refrigerator compartment indicate that the

periodic automatic defrost cycle is in progress.

The defrost water is automatically routed to a

drain outlet and into a container from which it

evaporates.

Clean the defrost water drain outlet regularly

using the tool supplied with the appliance in

order to ensure defrost water is removed

correctly.

Before carrying out any cleaning operations,

unplug the appliance.
