1. SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
2. INTENDED USE OF THE REFRIGERATOR
Keep the instruction handbook in a safe place; it contains important information which must be applied
when installing, using and servicing the refrigerator. The handbook must be kept so that it can be passed
on to any subsequent owners of the appliance.
The manufacturer declines all responsibility in case of failure to comply with the following precautions:
- Never put a damaged appliance into operation: if in doubt, contact your dealer.
- The appliance must be installed and connected to the electrical mains in full compliance with the
instructions provided in the handbook. The electrical connection conditions must be as specified on
the nameplate , which is in the bottom left-hand corner of the body of the refrigerator. The
appliance's electrical safety is only guaranteed if the household electrical system is earthed in
accordance with the relevant regulations.
- Make sure that all repairs and servicing are only carried out by authorised engineers from the
Smeg after-sales service. Always disconnect the appliance from the electrical mains in case of
breakdown and maintenance, when changing light-bulbs or during cleaning. Never defrost using
electrical devices or steam cleaners. Never remove frost or ice with sharp items, as this may cause
irreparable damage to the walls of the refrigerator.
- Never attempt to move the refrigerator by pulling on the door or the handle.
- High-alcohol drinks must only be stored sealed and vertical. Never store liquids in cans or glass
containers in the freezer compartment, especially if they contain added carbon dioxide. Never store
products containing gases, flammable propellants or explosive substances in the freezer: explosion
hazard!
- The use of electrical appliances (such as ice-cream makers or whisks) insidethe appliance is
forbidden.
- To ensure the refrigerator operates correctly, never obstruct or cover the air ducts in any way.
- Never touch frozen products taken straight from the freezer or put them in your mouth. Burn hazard
due to the very low temperatures.
- Never eat or drink foods which look or smell strange.
- Never allow children to play with the refrigeratorand use the drawers, shelves or other parts of
the appliance only as described in this handbook; never use them for purposes other than
those for which they are designed.
In case of electricity blackout, open the door(s) as little as possible. Once partly or completely thawed,
frozen foods must not be re-frozen.
Warning:
this refrigerator contains isobutane (R600a); this refrigerant gas is CFC-free but combustible.
When transporting, installing, cleaning and repairing the refrigerator, take care not to damage
any parts of the refrigeration circuit to prevent the risk of gas leaks. In case of damage, do not
use naked lights and ventilate the room containing the appliance appropriately.
The appliance is specifically constructed for domestic use and is therefore suitable for the refrigeration
and storage of fresh and frozen foods and the production of ice-cubes. The appliance has not been
designed or manufactured for professional use. Smeg declines all responsibility for damage deriving
from improper use of the appliance. The refrigerator has undergone the necessary tests on the tightness
of the refrigeration circuit and complies with the safety regulations for electrical appliances.
Warning:
the manufacturer declines all responsibility for injury or damage caused by failure to comply with
the above regulations or deriving from tampering with even just one part of the appliance and the
use of non-original spare parts.
