BEFORE INSTALLING THE REFRIGERATOR

Foreword

Your new appliance is a FULL NO FROST model exclusively for domestic use, i.e. both refrigerator and freezer compartments are provided with an automatic defrosting function.

This manual contains indications and warnings for correct and safe installation of the appliance - read it carefully before starting installation operations.

The model you have purchased may differ slightly with respect to some descriptions in this manual, since this manual covers several models.

Keep this manual for future consultation. If you sell the appliance give it to the new buyer.

Declaration of conformity

This appliance is intended to come into contact with foodstuffs and conforms to D.L. 108 of 25.01.1992 (European Directive 89/109/EEC).

Disposal of packaging materials

The packaging material for the protection and transport of the appliance and single components is entirely recyclable, and marked with the recycling symbol .

Keep the packaging materials (plastic bags, polystyrene parts, etc.) out of reach of children, as they are potentially dangerous.

Disposal must be carried out in accordance with local regulations for waste disposal.

PRECAUTIONS AND GENERAL RECOMMENDATIONS

After unpacking the appliance, check for damage and make sure that the doors shut properly. Any damage must be reported to your dealer within 24 hours after delivery of the appliance.

Be careful not to damage the floors when you move the appliance (e.g. parquet flooring). If, after removing the doors, it is necessary to move the appliance, make sure the internal components are well secured and/or remove them in order to avoid damage.

Because of the weight of the appliance, at least 2 persons are required to safely move/install it. Installation of the appliance must be carried out by a qualified technician.

Wait at least 1 hour before connecting the appliance to the power supply in order to ensure the refrigerant circuit is fully efficient.

Depending on the model purchased, the appliance does not contain CFCs (if the refrigerant circuit contains R134a) or HFCs (if the refrigerant circuit contains R600a - Isobutane). Isobutane is a natural gas with low environmental impact. Caution is required, however, since isobutane is flammable. Therefore, it is essential to ensure that refrigerant pipelines are not damaged.

Data regarding refrigerant and insulating substances is given on the rating plate.

Clean the inside of the appliance before introducing food.

For correct and safe operation, install and connect the appliance according to the instructions given in this manual.
