ELECTRICAL INFORMATION
WARNING - THIS APPLIANCE MUST BE EARTHED Fuse replacement If the mains lead of this appliance is fitted with a BS 1363A 13 amp fused plug, to change a fuse in this type of plug use an A.S.T.A. approved fuse to BS 1362 type and proceed as follows: 1. Remove the fuse cover (A) and fuse (B) 2. Fit replacement 13A fuse into fuse cover 3. Refit both into plug. IMPORTANT: The fuse cover must be refitted when changing a fuse and if the fuse cover is lost the plug must not be used until a correct replacement is fitted. Correct replacements are identified by the colour insert or the colour embossed in words on the base of the plug. Replacement fuse covers are available from your local electrical store.
KNOW YOUR APPLIANCE
The appliance you have just bought, marked by the symbol, allows the freezing - in of fresh and cooked food, the production of ice cubes and the storage of frozen food. Please read these instructions carefully, as they include a description of your appliance and the useful hints to enable you to achieve the best performances required to freeze fresh food and to store already frozen food.
CONNECTION TO A REWIREABLE PLUG
If the fitted plug is not suitable for your socket outlet, then it should be cut off and disposed of in order to avoid a possible shock hazard should it be inserted into a 13A socket elsewhere. A suitable alternative plug should then be fitted to the cable. The wires in this mains lead are coloured in accordance with the following code: BLUE "NEUTRAL" ("N") BROWN "LIVE" ("L") GREEN AND YELLOW "EARTH" ("E) 1. The GREEN AND YELLOW wire must be connected to the terminal in the plug which is marked with the letter "E" or by the Earth symbol or coloured green or green and yellow. 2. The BLUE wire must be connected to the terminal which is marked with the letter "N" or coloured black. 3. The BROWN wire must be connected to the terminal which is marked with the letter "L" or coloured red.

A) Control panel 1) Operation control lamp (green light) 2) Temperature control lamp (red alarm light) with acoustic signal 3) Fast freeze control lamp (yellow light) 4) Fast freeze switch 5) Temperature control knob (thermostat) 6) Open door alarm switch B) Baskets (freezing - in and storage baskets) C) Storage basket only. Some models are supplied with containers filled with cooling liquid(eutectics): remove them from the back of the basket(C) and position them next to each other inside the basket. INSTALLATION (Fig. 2) Ensure that the appliance is not damaged. Transit damages must be reported to your dealer within 24 hours of receipt of the appliance. The appliance should not be installed close to heat sources such as cookers, central heating, boilers, sunlight, etc. It must however be located in a well ventilated dry space. If the following type of installation cannot be avoided, respect these side distances: a) between appliance and oil or coal stoves: 30 cm minimum. b) between appliance and gas or electric cooker: 3 cm minimum. The appliance must stand on a stable and level surface: install it following the instructions given on the rear of the template, delivered with the appliance. Leave the appliance to stand for two hours before connecting it to the electricity supply. We suggest that during this time the interior is cleaned with a sponge dampened in a solution of water and vinegar, after which the baskets can be fitted into the appliance (Fig.3). Attention: Accessibility to the plug has to be guaranteed even after installation of the appliance to disconnect it, if required. Alternatively, connect the appliance to the mains by means of a two-pole switching device with contact separation of 3 mm situated in an accessible position.

CABLE CLAMP
ELECTRICAL CONNECTION AND OPERATION
Please check that the voltage indicated on the rating plate situated inside the compartment corresponds to the voltage in your home (Fig. 4-5). The earthing of this appliace is compulsory by law. The manufacturer will accept no liability for injury to persons or damage to objects arising from the non observance of this requirement.
For the Republic of Ireland only The information given in respect of Great Britain will frequently apply, but a third type of plug and socket is also used, the 2-pin, side earth type. In this case, the wire which is coloured GREEN AND YELLOW must be connected to the EARTH contact, and the other two wires to the two pins, irrespective of colour. The supply to the socket must be fitted with a 16 amp fuse. When the appliance is plugged in, if the thermostat knob is not set to symbol q , the green and the red lamps (1) and (2) (Fig.1) light up and the temperature acoustic alarm sounds. The green control light always remains alight and indicates the operation of the appliance. The red control light remains alight until the set operation temperature has been attained. It lights up again when the temperature inside the freezer rises due to frequent or prolonged door opening, and when the appliance has been loaded with fresh food to be frozen. In this case, switch on the fast freeze facility until the red control light goes off. The acoustic signal indicates that the red control light is alight. It stops when the red control light goes off or when the fast freeze facility is switched on (yellow control light on).
