Pull to open freezer shelf door.

stop pins, fig. (4) page 7.
If the appliance is not going to be used for
more than 48 hours the doors should be
left open to avoid odors.
The appliance is equipped with a high
quality condenser, which under normal
circumstances may cause the exterior
sidewalls of the appliance to be slightly
warm.
Lighting
Under normal circumstances, the interior
light of the refrigerator comes on when the
door is opened and turns off when closed.
As an energy saving feature, the appliance
is equipped with a switch that turns off the
light if the door is left open or ajar for an
unusually long period. After the door has
been closed for a few minutes, the switch
turns off and the interior light will operate
normally.
Important
If the power cord is damaged it must be
replaced with a cord of the same type by
an authorized service technician.
4. Maintenance
Use only unscented detergents when
cleaning the interior of the refrigerator/
freezer.
When cleaning the interior, turn off and
unplug the appliance.
The trim skirt at the foot of the appliance
can be removed to facilitate cleaning of the
floor under the appliance. See fig. (1) page
6.
The drain in the refrigerator must be
cleaned periodically.
5. Troubleshooting
Before calling a service agent, make sure:
the appliance is properly plugged in
the fuse is intact
the power has not been turned off
all controls are correctly set
the freezer is not over-filled with food.
Set the thermostat to 0 and leave appliance
turned off for 15 minutes. Turn the thermo-
stat back down to begin cooling again.
After five minutes check for frost on the
evaporator.
Do not open the refrigerator unless neces-
sary. If the break lasts a long time (more
than 12 hours) store food in another
freezer. Most food, if thawed on the outside
but otherwise solid, can be re-frozen.
DISPOSAL OF THEAPPLIANCE
The appliance contains recyclable
materials. When disposing of the
appliance, please contact the service
agent or other appropriate authority in
your municipality. They can inform you
of the collection and recycling meas-
ures used in your community.
If your old refrigerator is still around
the house but not in use, be sure to
remove the doors. This will reduce the
possibility of danger to children.
Do not allow children to climb, stand
or hang on the shelves in the refrig-
erator. They could damage the
refrigerator and seriously injure
themselves.
