English Warning! Any refrigerant spilling out can injure your eyes. In the event of eye contact with the refrigerant, wash your eyes instantly under plenty of running water and call/consult a doctor (an eye specialist) immediately. The appliance, according to its climate category, is meant for use at certain room temperatures. These temperatures should not be exceeded! The climate category for your particular appliance is marked on the rating plate. The categories are: name of climate category SN N ST T suitable room temperatures + 10 to + 32 °C + 16 to + 32 °C + 18 to + 38 °C + 18 °C to + 43 °C 4 Rating plate The rating plate with the technical data is located on the side of the appliance inner wall or outside, on the rear side of the unit. Take a note of the technical data Copy here below the technical data from the rating plate so that it is easily accessible without having to move the appliance. Model- / Type N° . Gross capacity Litres Net capacity Litres Operating voltage V-50Hz Maximum absorbed power (W) Watt Safety fuse (A) Amp Power consumption kWh/24h Freezing capacity kg/24h 5 Connecting up your appliance to the mains Your appliance must be connected only to a grounded power socket which complies to relevant standards and has been installed by an authorised specialist. Before you plug in your appliance to the power socket, make absolutely sure that the voltage (V) and the safety fuse (A) for the main fuse box stated on the appliance's rating plate match your electrical supply. If these do not match, notify the nearest service department or your dealer immediately. The appliance must not be connected up to an inverse rectifier (eg. solar panels). 6 Using your appliance Switching on / off and Selecting the Temperature Temperature dial (Thermostat) The temperature dial switches the appliance on and off and sets the cooling temperature. To switch on: Turn the temperature dial to the right. ■ The appliance has been switched on. Instruction for use ■ The compressor is activated until the set temperature inside the appliance has been reached. In the case of combined fridge I freezers, which are supplied with two compressors, you need to make sure, that both temperature dials for the fridge compartment and for the freezer, have been set. When setting the temperature for the freezer compartment, it is best to use a coin or a screwdriver. Temperature settings: Turn dial left to lowest setting = slight cooling Turn dial right to highest setting = lowest temperature The temperature must be set according to: ■ the appliance's room temperature ■ quantity of stored food ■ how often the appliance is opened We recommend a medium setting. You will soon learn, through observation, which is the most suitable setting for your requirements. Switching off: Turn the dial as far to the left as possible. ■ The compressor has been switched off Pilot lights If your appliance is equipped with pilot lights, they indicate the following: ■ green = CONTROL the appliance is connected to the electrical supply and is operating. ■ yellow = the SLIPERFREEZE SWITCH is on and the thermostat has been deactivated. The compressor continues to refrigerate, until the SUPER FREEZER SWITCH is switched off again. ■ red = ALARM the temperature in the freezer compartment is too warm i.e. has gone up. The green pilot light - when present - must always remain on when the appliance is connected up to the electrical supply and is switched on. It is very important to pay attention to this because in the event of a power failure, the red and yellow pilot lights stop operating and no longer provide a warning. If the red pilot light comes on there may be several reasons for this, namely: ■ The freezer compartment is being started up for the first time ■ It is being restarted after defrosting ■ The freezer has been refilled with fresh food In these cases it is quite normal for the red pilot light to be on. It goes off automatically when the temperature inside reaches approximately - 18°C. Switch on (if provided) the SUPER FREEZE SWITCH (switch off again no more than 24 hours later or when the red light goes oft). If possible, do not open the freezer compartment until the red light has gone off. If the red pilot light continues to remain on after 12 to 24 hours, there may be a serious problem. English Ifnot; unplug your appliance and lift it to one side, with the door closed, for a short while, i.e. tilt it and then place it back down on its feet again. After 2 hours plug it back in. Do not open the door again for about 12 hours (i.e. until the red light - ifprovided - has gone off). ■ The door does not close tightly and is not sealing properly. Test: place a sheet of paper between the seal and the casing and close the door. It should be difficult to pull out the sheet ofpaper on all sides. If the paper slides out easily on one or more sides, call your nearest service department. ■ Heavy ice formation on the inside walls of the freezer compartment (see:" cleaning and maintenance") ■ The appliance is exposed to direct sunlight or is sited near a direct heat source (oven, radiator etc.). Protect the appliance against direct sunlight / check the distance from the heat source /place an insulation plate between the appliance and the source ofheat (see "Choosing where to install your appliance") ■ The freezer has been filled up with a quantity of fresh food which does not comply with the freezing capacity indicated on the rating plate (XX kg /24h). ■ Is the ventilation working properly. the ventilation grille covered or is the condenser on the outer rear wall full of dust? c) Your appliance is excessively noisy. Please check: ■ Is the cabinet standing level and steady, are any nearby objects or items of furniture being vibrated by the cabinet? Make sure everything at the rear is free, carefully bend back any parts touching. Note: slight bubbling noises are normal for this type of refrigeration system. Warning On no account should you undertake any technical interventions or attempts at repair on your appliance. 12 Getting your appliance serviced Any repairs or interventions on the appliance should only be carried out by your nearest service department, as otherwise the user may run considerable risks and the guarantee may no longer be valid. Consult the enclosed guarantee card or the separately enclosed list of after sales centres, to see which company is responsible for servicing your appliance.

To
switch
on:
Turn
the
temperature
dial
to
the

inside
the
appliance
has
been
reached.
In
the
case
of
combined
fridge
I
freezers,
which
are
supplied
with
two
compressors,
you
need
to
make
sure,
that
both
temperature
dials
for
the
fridge
compartment
and
for
the
freezer,
have
been
set.
When
setting
the
temperature
for
the
freezer
compartment,
it
is
best
to
use
a
coin
or
a
screwdriver.
Temperature

Turn
dial
left
to
lowest
setting
=
slight
cooling
Turn
dial
right
to

must
be
set
according
to:
the
appliance's
room
temperature
quantity
of
stored
food
how
often
the
appliance
is
opened
We
recommend
a
medium
setting.
You
will
soon
learn,
through
observation,
which
is
the
most
suitable
setting
for
your
requirements.
Switching
off:
Turn
the
dial
as
far
to
the
left
as
possible.
The

Pilot
lights
If
your
appliance
is
equipped
with
pilot
lights,
they
indicate
the
following:
green
=
CONTROL
the
appliance
is
connected
to
the
electrical
supply
and
is
operating.
yellow
=
the
SLIPERFREEZE
SWITCH
is
on
and
the
thermostat
has
been
deactivated.
The
compressor
continues
to
refrigerate,
until
the
SUPER
FREEZER
SWITCH
is
switched
off
again.
red
=
ALARM
the
temperature
in
the
freezer
compartment
is
too
warm
i.e.
has
gone
up.
The
green
pilot
light
-
when
present
-
must
always
remain
on
when
the
appliance
is
connected
up
to
the
electrical
supply
and
is
switched
on.
It
is
very
important
to
pay
attention
to
this
because
in
the
event
of
a
power
failure,
the
red
and
yellow
pilot
lights
stop
operating
and
no
longer
provide
a
warning.
If
the
red
pilot
light
comes
on
there
may
be
several
reasons
for
this,
namely:
The
freezer
compartment
is
being
started
up
for
the
fi
rst
time
It
is
being
restarted
after
defrosting
The
freezer
has
been
refilled with
fresh
food
In
these
cases
it
is
quite
normal
for
the
red
pilot
light
to
be
on.
It
goes
off
automatically
when
the
temperature
inside
reaches
approximately
-
18
°
C.
Switch
on
(if
provided)
the
SUPER
FREEZE
SWITCH
(switch
off
again
no
more
than
24
hours
later
or
when
the
red
light
goes
oft).
If
possible,
do
not
open
the
freezer
compartment
until
the
red
light
has
gone
off.
If
the
red
pilot
light
continues
to
remain
on
after
12
to
24
hours,
there
may
be
a
serious
problem.
If
not;
unplug
your
appliance
and
lift
it
to
one
side,
with
the
door
closed,
for
a
short
while,
i.e.
tilt
it
and
then
place
it
back
down
on
its
feet
again.
After
2
hours
plug
it
back
in.
Do
not
open
the
door
again
for
about
12
hours
(i.e.
until
the
red
light
-
if
provided
-
has
gone
off).
The
door
does
not
close
tightly
and
is
not
sealing
properly.
Test:
place
a
sheet
of
paper
between
the
seal
and
the
casing
and
close
the
door.
It
should
be
difficult
to
pull
out
the

easily
on
one
or
more
sides,
