• This product should be serviced by an authorized Service Centre, and only genuine spare parts should be used.
• Under no circumstances should you attempt to repair the appliance yourself. Repairs carried out by inexperienced persons may cause injury or more serious malfunctioning. Refer to your local Service Centre, and always insist on genuine spare parts.

- This appliance contains hydrocarbons in its cooling unit; maintenance and recharging must therefore only be carried out by authorized technicians.

Use

- The domestic refrigerators and freezers are designed to be used specifically for the storage of edible foodstuffs only.

- Best performance is obtained with ambient temperature between +18°C and +43°C (class T); +18°C and +38°C (class ST); +16°C and +32°C (class N); +10°C and +32°C (class SN). The class of your appliance is shown on its rating plate.

Warning: when the ambient temperature is not included within the range indicated for the class of this appliance, the following instructions must be observed: when the ambient temperature drops below the minimum level, the storage temperature in the freezer compartment cannot be guaranteed; therefore it is advisable to use the food stored as soon as possible.

- Frozen food must not be re-frozen once it has been thawed out.

- Manufacturers' recommendations should be strictly adhered to. Refer to relevant instructions.

- The inner lining of the appliance consists of channels through which the refrigerant passes. If these should be punctured this would damage the appliance beyond repair and cause food loss. DO NOT USE SHARP INSTRUMENTS to scrape off frost or ice. Frost may be removed by using the scraper provided. Under no circumstances should solid ice be forced off the liner. Solid ice should be

allowed to thaw when defrosting the appliance.

- Do not place carbonated or fizzy drinks in the freezer as it creates pressure on the container, which may cause it to explode, resulting in damage to the appliance. Do not use a mechanical device or any artificial means to speed up the thawing process other than those recommended by the manufacturer. Never use metal objects for cleaning your appliance as it may get damaged.

Starting the appliance

The temperature regulator is located at the top of the appliance on the control panel. It is also the ON/OFF switch.

A coin is required to turn the temperature regulator.

Insert the plug into the wall socket and turn the thermostat knob clockwise beyond position «O» (OFF).

The interior lighting comes on. The compressor starts and then runs automatically. To switch off the appliance, turn the temperature regulator to position «O».

Temperature Control

The temperature regulator allows you to adjust the temperature inside the refrigerator according to use and external conditions.

The following effects are of significance in respect of the interior temperature:

Ambient temperature

Quantity and temperature of the food stored;

Frequency with which the door is opened and

how long it is left open

the location of the appliance.

The temperature inside the appliance is automatically adjusted.

Setting "1" = highest temperature, warmest setting

Setting „4“ = lowest temperature, coldest setting.

Setting "” = Off

A medium setting is generally the most ssuitable.

Movable shelves

The walls of the refrigerator are equipped with a series of runners so that the shelves can be positioned as desired.

HINTS

Hints for refrigeration

Useful hints:

Meat (all types): wrap in polythene bags and place on the glass shelf above the vegetable drawer.

For safety, store in this way only one or two days at the most.

Cooked foods, cold dishes, etc.: these should be covered and may be placed on any shelf.

Fruit and vegetables: these should be thoroughly cleaned and placed in the special drawer(s) provided.

Butter and cheese: these should be placed in special airtight containers or wrapped in aluminium foil or polythene bags to exclude as much air as possible.

Milk b bottlethese should have a cap and should be stored in the bottle rack on the door.

Bananas, potatoes, onions and garlic, if not packed, must not be kept in the refrigerator.

Freezing of fresh food and storage of frozen food

Prepare food in small portions to enable it to be rapidly and completely frozen and to make it possible subsequently to thaw only the quantity required.

Wrap up the food in aluminium foil or polythene and make sure that the packages are airtight.

Do not allow fresh, unfrozen food to touch food which is already frozen, thus avoiding a rise in temperature of the latter.

Do not touch frozen food with wet hands. Your hands could stick to the food and cause skin abrasions.

It is advisable to show the freezing-in date on each individual pack to enable you to keep tab of the storage time.

Be sure that frozen foodstuffs are transferred from the foodstore to the freezer in the shortest possible time.

Do not put carbonated liquids (fizzy drinks, etc.) in the freezing compartment as they may burst.

Once defrosted, food deteriorates rapidly and cannot be refrozen.

MAINTENANCE

Unplug the appliance before carrying out any maintenance operation.

Warning

This appliance contains hydrocarbons in its cooling unit; maintenance and recharging must therefore only be carried out by authorized technicians.

Periodic cleaning

Clean the inside with warm water and bicarbonate of soda.

Rinse and dry thoroughly.

Do not pull, move or damage any pipes and /or cables inside the cabinet ..

Clean the condenser (black grill) and the compressor at the back of the appliance with a brush or a vacuum cleaner. This operation will improve the performance of the appliance and save electricity consumption.

Many proprietary kitchen surface cleaners contain chemicals that can attack/damage the plastics used in this appliance. For this reason it is recommended that the outer casing of this appliance is only cleaned with warm water with a little washing-up liquid added.

Periods of non-operation

When the appliance is not in use for long periods, take the following precautions:
