8. Never clean the appliance or perform maintenance without
first disconnecting it from the electrical mains. Turning the
thermostat knob to the
setting does not suffice to break all
electrical contact with the mains.
9. Before having your old refrigerator picked up for disposal,
remove or make inoperable any locking devices to prevent
children who might play in or around the appliance from be-
ing locked inside.
10. Before calling for service/assistance in the case of mal-
function, consult the chapter entitled “TROUBLESHOOTING"
to determine whether it is possible to eliminate the problem.
Do not try to repair the problem by trying to access the inter-
nal components of the appliance.
11. If damaged, the power supply cord on this appliance
must necessarily be replaced by our service centre
because special tools are required for replacement.
12. Do not use electric appliances inside the compartment
for food storage, if these are not those recommended by the
manufacturer.
13. At the end of the functional life of your appliance –
containing cyclopentane gas in the insulation foam and
perhaps gas R600a (isobutane) in the refrigeration circuit –
the latter should made safe before being sent to the dump.
For this operation, please contact your dealer or the Local
Organisation in charge of waste disposal.
Electrical Connection and Earthing
Before proceeding with the electrical connection, make sure
that the voltage indicated on the rating plate, located within
the freezer, corresponds to the mains voltage in your homeand
that the socket is fitted with a standard earthing wire in ac-
cordance with safety standards for 46/90 systems. If the
socket is not fitted with an earthing wire, the manufacturer will
not be held liable for any damages and/or injuries arising out
of the use of the appliance. Do not use multiple sockets or
adapters.
Position the appliance in such a way that you can access
the socket where it is plugged in.
Insufficient power?
The electrical socket must be able to handle the maximum
power load of the appliance, which is indicated on the rating
plate located within the freezer.
Before making the electrical connection...
After the appliance has been delivered, place it in the vertical
upright position and wait at least 3 hours before inserting the
plug into the socket in order to ensure that it functions
properly.
ATTENTION
Read your manual carefully since it contains instructions
which will ensure safe installation, use and maintenance of
your appliance.
Your Refrigerator is built to International safety standards
(EN60) and has been awarded the European approval mark
(IMQ) for compliance with UK electrical safety requirements.
It also meets the EC standards on the prevention and elimi-
nation of radio interference (EC directive 87/308 - 02.06.89).
PRODUCT SAFETY
1. This appliance must not be installed outdoors - not even
in an area protected by a roof. It is extremely dangerous to
leave it exposed to rain or storms.
2. It must only be used by adults and exclusively to refriger-
ate and freeze foodstuffs, following the instructions for use
contained in this manual.
3. Do not ever touch or handle the appliance with bare feet
or with wet hands or feet.
4. It is highly recommended that you do not use extension
cords or multiple socket adapters. If the refrigerator is installed
between cabinets, make sure that the cord is not bent or
dangerously pinched or compressed.
5. Never pull on the cord or the refrigerator to remove the plug
from the wall socket - this is very dangerous.
6. Never touch the cooling components within the appliance,
especially with wet hands because this could result in injury.
7. Never put ice cubes just removed from the freezer into your
mouth because they could stick to your mouth and cause
burns.
INSTALLATION
To ensure that the appliance operates properly and to re-
duce energy consumption, it is important that the appli-
ance is installed correctly.
Ventilation
The compressor and condenser generate heat and, therefore,
need to be ventilated properly. Areas not adequately ventilated
are not suitable for this appliance. Therefore it should be
installed in a room with an opening (eg. window) that provides
the appropriate amount of air re-circulation. It is also important
that the room is not too humid.
Away from Heat
Avoid positioning the appliance in a place where it is directly
exposed to sunlight or near an oven, hob or the like.
