Appliance Packaging Information  
All materials are environmentally sound.  
The plastics can be recycled and are identified as follows:  
>PE< for polyethylene, e.g. the outer covering and the bags in the  
interior.  
Should the lining up of the furnitu-  
re door be necessary, use the  
clearance of slots.  
>PS< for polystyrene foam, e.g. the pads, which are all free of chlo-  
rofluorocarbon.  
At the end of operations, it is  
necessary to check if the door of  
the furniture closes properly.  
The carton parts are made from recycled paper and should be dispo-  
sed of at a waste-paper recycling collection location.  
Disposal of old Appliances

Instructions for building-in  
Starting up and temperature regulation  
Wash the inside of the appliance with lukewarm water with a little  
bicarbonate of soda added (5ml to 0,5 litre of water). Do not use soap  
or detergent as the smell may linger. Dry the appliance thoroughly.  
Apply joint the sealing strip as  
shown in figure.  
• When the refrigerator compartment door is opened, the internal ligh-  
ting is switched on. The temperature selector knob is located on the  
RH side of the refrigerator compartment.  
Setting “0”: Off.  
Setting “1”: Hightest temperature, (warmest setting).  
Setting “6” (end-stop) : Lowest temperature, (coldest setting).  
The exact setting should be chosen keeping in mind that the tempe-  
rature inside the refrigerator depends on:  
D765  
-the quantity of food stored  
-how often the door is opened  
Push appliance into the hous-  
ing until stop strip (A) touches  
the kitchen unit.  
The temperatures in the refrigerator compartment and freezer com-  
partment cannot be independently regulated.  
A
If you want to freeze fresh food rapidly, select setting “6”, ensuring that  
the temperature in the refrigerator compartment does not drop below  
0°C. You should also promptly reset the temperature regulator to set-  
ting “3” or “4”, if this occurs.  
Important!  
High ambient temperatures (e.g. on hot summer days) and a cold set-  
ting on the temperature regulator (position"5" to "6") can cause the  
compressor to run continuously.  
D023  
If this happens, turn the temperature regulator back to a warmer set-  
ting (position "3" to "4"). At this setting the compressor will be switched  
on and off as usual and automatic defrosting recommenced.  
Open the door and push the  
appliance against the side of  
the kitchen unit opposite to that  
of appliance hinges.  
Ambient Temperature switch  
With  
a
room temperature  
below +16°C the Fridge free-  
zer may not function correctly.  
If the room temperature is  
lower than +16°C it will be  
necessary to depress switch  
(A). The relevant pilot light  
comes on.

Installation Location  
Fresh food refrigeration  
The appliance should be set up in a well ventilated, dry room.  
To obtain the best performance:  
Energy use is affected by the ambient temperature. The appliance  
should therefore  
• do not store warm food or evaporating liquid in the refrigeator  
• do cover or wrap the food, particularly if it has a strong flavour.  
• Position food so that air can circuiate freely round it.  
Useful hints:  
– not be exposed to direct sunlight;  
– not be installed next to radiators, or other sources of continuous heat;  
– only be installed at a location whose ambient temperature corre-  
sponds to the climate classification, for which the appliance is desi-  
gned.  
Meat (all types): wrap in polythene bags and place on the glass shelf  
above the vegetable drawer(s)  
The climate classification can be found on the serial plate, which is  
located at the left on the inside of the appliance.  
For safety, store in this way only one or two days at the most.  
The following table shows which ambient temperature is correct for  
each climate classification:  
Cooked foods, cold dishes, etc: these should be covered and may  
be placed on any shelf.  
Climate classification  
for an ambient temperature of  
Fruit and vegetables: these should be thoroughly cleaned and  
placed in the special drawer(s) provided.  
SN  
+10 to +32 °C  
+16 to +32 °C  
Butter and cheese: these should be placed in special airtight con-  
tainers or wapped in aluminium foil or polythene bags to exclude as  
much air as possible.

Freezing and storing frozen food  
You can use your freezer for freezing fresh food yourself.  
D567  
Important!  
Reversing the door  
• The temperature in the freezer compartment must be –18 °C or col-  
der before freezing food.  
The side at which the door opens can be changed from the right side  
(factory adjustment) to the left side, if the installation site requires.  
• Please observe the freezing capacity given on the rating plate. The  
freezing capacity is the maximum quantity of fresh food that can be  
frozen within a period of 24 hours. If you wish to freeze food seve-  
ral days in a row, please observe a maximum capacity of only 2/3 to  
3/4 of that on the rating plate. The quality of the food is best pre-  
served when it is frozen right through to the core as quickly as pos-  
sible.  
Warning! When changing the side at which the door opens, the  
appliance may not be connected to the mains. Remove plug from the  
mains beforehand.

• Allow warm food to cool down before freezing. The warmth will cau-  
se increased ice formation and increase the power consumption.  
Installation  
• Please note the maximum storage times specified by the manufac-  
turer.  
Electrical Connection  
• Thawed foods which have not been processed further (cooked into  
meals) may not under any circumstances be frozen a second time.  
Any electrical work required to install this appliance should be carried  
out by a qualified electrician or competent person.  
• Containers with flammable gases or liquids can leak at low tempe-  
ratures. There is a risk of an explosion! Do not store any containers  
with flammable materials such as, for example, spray cans, fire  
extinguisher refill cartridges etc in the refrigerator/freezer.  
WARNING – THIS APPLIANCE MUST BE EARTHED  
The manufacturer declines any liability should these safety mea-  
sures not be observed.  
Before switching on, make sure the electricity supply voltage is the  
same as that indicated on the appliance rating plate. The rating plate  
is inside, on the left.  
• Bottles and cans must not be placed in the freezer. They can burst  
when the contents freeze, high carbonate content drinks can even  
explode! Never store lemonade, juices, beer, wine, sparkling wine  
etc. in the freezer.  
The appliance is supplied with a 13 amp plug fitted. In the event of  
having to change the fuse in the plug supplied, a 13 amp ASTA appro-  
ved (BS 1362) fuse must be used.  
• All foods must be packed air tight prior to freezing, so that they do  
not dry out or lose their flavour, and so that no flavour contamina-  
tion of other frozen goods occurs.  
Important!  
Important! Do not touch frozen food with wet hands. Your hands  
could freeze to the food.  
The wires in the mains lead are coloured in accordance with the fol-  
lowing code:  
1.  
2.
