The appliance must be grounded. The manufacturer is not responsible for damages that may occur as a result of usage without grounding.

INSTALLATION

Install the appliance in a dry, well-ventilated room. The installation location should neither be exposed to direct sunlight nor near a heat source, e.g. a cooker, radiator, etc.

To ensure adequate ventilation for the appliance, allow 10 cm of space between the back of the refrigerator freezer and the wall and at least 10 cm of space from the side to the wall, a height of over 30 cm from its top.

For uneven surfaces, front feet can be aligned.

AMBIENT TEMPERATUE

This appliance is designed to operate in ambient temperature between 10^ C and 43^ C. If these temperatures are exceeded, i.e. colder or warmer, the appliance will not operate correctly. If the ambient temperatures are exceeded for long periods, the temperature in the freezer compartment will rise above -18^ C and food spoilage may occur.

☐ Before placing food in the appliance

• Remove all packaging.
• Allow the appliance to run empty for 2 – 3 hours so the compartment can cool to the appropriate temperature.
• Clean the inside of the appliance with warm water and a little liquid detergent to remove manufacturing and transportation dust.

☐ Hints for fresh food refrigeration

• Good temperature setting that ensures preservation of fresh food is a temperature less than or equal to +4°C.
• Higher temperature setting inside the appliance may lead to shorter shelf life of food.
• Cover the food with packaging to preserve its freshness and aroma.
• Always use closed containers for liquids and for food, to avoid flavours or odours in the compartment.
• To avoid the cross-contamination between cooked and raw food, cover the cooked food and separate it from the raw one.
• It is recommended to defrost the food inside the fridge.
• Do not place hot food inside the appliance. Make sure it has cooled down at room temperature before placing it inside the appliance.

□ Hints for refrigeration

The symbol indicates the location of the coldest part of your refrigerator. The area is in between the vegetable compartment at the bottom and the sym the top, or the shelf at the same height.

In order to maintain the temperature in this area, make sure not to change position of this shelf.

In forced air refrigerators (equipped with a fan or No Frost models), the coldest area symbol is not shown because the temperature is uniform throughout the interior.

INSTALLING THE TEMPERATURE INDICATOR

To help you adjust your refrigerator correctly, it is equipped with a temperature indicator that you can use to control the average temperature in the coldest area.

WARNING: This indicator is only intended for use in your refrigerator. Do not use it in another refrigerator (as the coldest area will not be the same) or for any other purpose.

TEMPERATURE INDICATOR : THE COLDEST PART OF YOUR REFRIGERATOR

Diagram showing a refrigerator with an open door and a numbered label pointing to the door panel.

CHECKING THE TEMPERATURE IN THE COLDEST AREA

Using the temperature indicator, you should regularly check that the temperature is correct in the coldest part of your refrigerator. The temperature inside your refrigerator depends on a number of factors, such as the outside room temperature, how full your refrigerator is, and how often you open the door. Take these factors into consideration when adjusting your appliance.

When the indicator shows "OK", it means your thermostat is set properly and the temperature inside your refrigerator is correct.

If the indicator is white it means the temperature is too high, so you should increase the thermostat setting and wait for 12 hours before checking the indicator again.

After loading the refrigerator or opening the door, the indicator may turn white for a few seconds.

Correct setting

Temperature too high, adjust the thermostat
