Precautions and tips

Disposal

 Observe local environmental standards when

disposing packaging material for recycling

purposes.

 The European Directive 2002/96/EC on Waste

Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE), requires

that old household electrical appliances must not be

disposed of in the normal unsorted municipal waste

stream. Old appliances must be collected separately

in order to optimise the recovery and recycling of the

materials they contain and reduce the impact on

human health and the environment. The crossed out

wheeled bin symbol on the product reminds you of

your obligation, that when you dispose of the

appliance it must be separately collected.

Consumers should contact their local authority or

retailer for information concerning the correct

disposal of their old appliance.

Respecting and conserving the

environment

 Install the appliance in a fresh and well-ventilated

room. Ensure that it is protected from direct sunlight

and do not place it near heat sources.

 Try to avoid keeping the door open for long periods

or opening the door too frequently in order to

conserve energy.

 Do not fill the appliance with too much food:

cold air must circulate freely for food to be preserved

properly. If circulation is impeded, the compressor

will work continuously.

 Do not place hot food directly into the refrigerator.

The internal temperature will increase and force the

compressor to work harder and will consume more

energy.

 Defrost the appliance if ice forms (see Maintenance).

A thick layer of ice makes cold transference to food

products more difficult and results in increased

energy consumption.

 Regularly check the door seals and wipe clean to

ensure they are free of debris and to prevent cold air

from escaping (see Maintenance).

 Thanks to its independent freezer door and drawer

opening system, this product offers a 50% energy

saving in comparison with a normal 2-door combined

refrigerator/freezer unit.

! The appliance was designed and manufactured in

compliance with international safety standards. The

following warnings are provided for safety reasons and

must be read carefully.

This appliance complies with the following

Community Directives:

- 73/23/EEC of 19/02/73 (Low Voltage) and

subsequent amendments;

-89/336/EEC of 03.05.89 (Electromagnetic

Compatibility) and subsequent amendments;

- 2002/96/CE..

General safety

 The appliance was designed for domestic use inside the

home and is not intended for commercial or industrial

use.

 The appliance must be used to store and freeze food

products by adults only and according to the instructions

in this manual.

 The appliance must not be installed outdoors, even in

covered areas. It is extremely dangerous to leave the

appliance exposed to rain and storms.

 Do not touch the appliance with bare feet or with wet or

moist hands and feet.

 Do not touch the internal cooling elements: this could

cause skin abrasions or frost/freezer burns.

 When unplugging the appliance always pull the plug

from the mains socket, do not pull on the cable.

 Before cleaning and maintenance, always switch off the

appliance and disconnect it from the electrical supply. It

is not sufficient to set the temperature adjustment knobs

on OFF (appliance off) to eliminate all electrical contact.

 In the case of a malfunction, under no circumstances

should you attempt to repair the appliance yourself.

Repairs carried out by inexperienced persons may cause

injury or further malfunctioning of the appliance.

 Do not use utensils other than the scraper provided, or

electrical equipment which is not of the type specified by

the manufacturer, inside the frozen food storage

compartments.

 Do not put ice cubes taken directly from the freezer into

your mouth.

 Do not allow children to tamper with the controls or play

with the appliance. Under no circumstance should they

be allowed to sit on the bins or to hang from the door.

 Keep packaging material out of the reach of children! It

can become a choking or suffocation hazard.

 When closing the refrigerator

doors, pay attention to the position

of the upright (see figure).

 Make sure that excessive volumes

of food are not placed in the upper

part of the freezer compartment, in

the space reserved for the ice tray

(where present).
