BEFORE USING THE REFRIGERATOR

In order to maximise the performance
of your refrigerator, carefully read the
user instructions and the attached
product sheet, which provide useful
food conservation tips and a
description of the appliance. Keep this
booklet for future reference. 

The product you have purchased is an
automatic refrigerator, or a refrigerator with
a low temperature compartment (see
attached product sheet), and is for domestic
use only. 
The 

refrigerator compartment

defrosts

automatically and is used for the
preservation of fresh foods and drinks. 
The 

low temperature compartment

,

if featured, is used for the conservation of
deep-frozen and frozen foods and for
making ice-cubes; 

defrosting is manual.

1. 

After unpacking, check the refrigerator for
damage  and make sure the doors close
properly. Any damage must be reported to
the retailer  within 24 hrs of delivery. 

2. Leave the appliance standing in a vertical

position for at least 2 hours before
connecting it to the power supply (to
allow the refrigerant circuit time to
settle). 

3.

Make sure that the installation and electrical
connection are carried out by a qualified
technician in compliance with the
manufacturer’s instructions and local safety
regulations. 

1. Packaging 

The packaging material is 100% recyclable, as
confirmed by the recycling symbol. Follow local
regulations for waste disposal. 
Keep potentially hazardous packaging (plastic
bags, polystyrene, etc.) out of the reach of
children. 

2. Product

The refrigerator has been manufactured
using recyclable materials. Follow local
waste disposal regulations when scrapping.
Cut off the power cable to prevent
connection to the mains. 

Dispose of the appliance at your local

recycling plant for refrigerant gases.

Information

This appliance is free of CFC’s (refrigerant
circuit contains R134a) or free of HFC’s (re-
frigerant circuit contains R600a - Isobutane).
For more details, please refer to the rating
plate on the appliance.

PROTECTING THE ENVIRONMENT 

PRECAUTIONS AND GENERAL RECOMMENDATIONS 

Only use the 

refrigerator compartment

to

store fresh foods only and the low
temperature compartment to store deep-
frozen foods and making ice-cubes.

Do not cover or close the air vents. 

Do not put glassware containers holding
liquids in the low temperature compartment
since they may explode.  

Do not eat ice-cubes or ice-lollies
immediately after taking them out of the
low temperature compartment, since they
may cause cold-burns. 

To prevent the risk of trapping and
suffocation, do not allow children to play or
hide inside the refrigerator. 

Before cleaning or servicing the
appliance, always unplug it or switch
off the mains power supply. 

The power cable may only be replaced
by authorized personnel. 

Declaration of conformity 

This appliance is designed to store food
products and complies with European
Directive 89/109/EEC.

For appliances with Isobutane (R600a)

The refrigerant Isobutane is a natural gas of
high environmental compatibility but which
is inflammable. Therefore, it is essential to
ensure that the ducts of the refrigerant cir-
cuit do not get damaged.
