GB
! 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 rear 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 inside the freezer
(e.g. 150 W).
• The voltage is in the range of values indicated on the data plate
located inside the freezer (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.

• Do not re-freeze food that is defrosting or that has already
been defrosted. These foods must be cooked and eaten
(within 24 hours).
• Fresh food that needs to be frozen must not come into contact

stored in the top FREEZER and STORAGE compartment.
• Do not place glass bottles which contain liquids, and which are
corked or hermetically sealed in the freezer because they
could break.
• The maximum quantity of food that may be frozen daily is
indicated on the plate containing the technical properties located
within the freezer (for example: Kg/24h: 4).
