Installation
!
Before placing your new appliance into operation please read
these operating instructions carefully. They contain important
information for safe use, for installation and for care of the
appliance.
!
Please keep these operating instructions for future reference.
Pass them on to possible new owners of the appliance.
Positioning and connection
Positioning
1. Place the appliance in a well-ventilated humidity-free room.
2. Do not obstruct the rear fan grills. The compressor and
condenser give off heat and require good ventilation to
operate correctly and save energy.
3. Leave a space of at least 10 cm between the top part of
the appliance and any furniture above it, and at least 5 cm
between the sides and any furniture/side walls.
4. Ensure the appliance is away from any sources of heat
(direct sunlight, electric stove, etc.).
5. In order to maintain the correct distance between the
appliance and the wall behind it, fit the spacers supplied in
the installation kit, following the instructions provided.
Levelling
1. Install the appliance on a level and rigid floor.
2. If the floor is not perfectly horizontal, adjust the refrigerator
by tightening or loosening the front feet.
Electrical connections
After the appliance has been transported, carefully place it
vertically and wait at least 3 hours before connecting it to the
electricity mains. Before inserting the plug into the electrical
socket ensure the following:
• The appliance is earthed and the plug is compliant with the
law.
• The socket can withstand the maximum power of the
appliance, which is indicated on the data plate located on
the bottom left side of the fridge (e.g. 150 W).
• The voltage must be in the range between the values
indicated on the data plate located on the bottom left side
(e.g. 220-240V).
• The socket is compatible with the plug of the appliance. If
the socket is incompatible with the plug, ask an authorised
technician to replace it (see Assistance). Do not use
extension cords or multiple sockets.
!
Once the appliance has been installed, the power supply
cable and the electrical socket must be easily accessible.
!
The cable must not be bent or compressed.
!
The cable must be checked regularly and replaced by
authorised technicians only (see Assistance).
!
The manufacturer declines any liability should these safety
measures not be observed.
Stability bracket
WARNING:
To prevent the fridge from tilting forwards, it must
be held in place with the stability bracket supplied.
This is the responsibility of the customer.
Fixed to the floor or wall at the rear of the fridge, the stability
bracket hooks onto the compressor mounting plate holding the
fridge secure.
The stability bracket must be installed securely in
accordance with these instructions BEFORE using the
fridge.
Note: The fridge is heavy so care must be taken when
moving it.
1. Position the fridge in its chosen location.
2. Looking from the front of the fridge, mark the position of the
left hand panel.
3. Move the fridge far enough away to get clear access to the
back wall.
4. In order to clear components on the compressor mounting
plate, the stability bracket must be positioned on the floor
between 100 - 200mm to the right of the left hand panel
mark.
5. Mark and drill the fixing holes and insert suitable fixings to
hold the bracket firm.
6. Carefully re-position the fridge. Make sure that the
compressor mounting plate locates into the stability bracket.
Start-up and use
Starting the appliance
! Before starting the appliance, follow the installation
instructions (see Installation).
!
Before connecting the appliance, clean the compartments
and accessories well with lukewarm water and bicarbonate.
Using the refrigerator to its full potential
The temperature inside the refrigerator compartment
automatically adjusts itself according to the position of the
thermostat knob.
1
= warmest
MAX
= coldest
We recommend, however, a medium position.
The cooling section of the refrigerator is located inside the
back wall of the refrigerator compartment for increased space
and improved aesthetics. During operation, the back wall will
be covered in frost or water droplets depending on whether
the compressor is operating or paused. Do not worry, the
refrigerator is functioning normally.
If the TEMPERATURE ADJUSTMENT knob has been set
on high values with large quantities of food and with a high
ambient temperature, the appliance can operate continuously,
resulting in excessive frost formation and excessive energy
consumption: compensate for this by shifting the knob towards
lower values (defrosting will occur automatically).
In static appliances, the air circulates in a natural way: the
colder air tends to move downwards as it is heavier. The food
should be stored as follows:
