					mouth because they could stick to your mouth and cause burns.   
					7. Do not carry out any cleaning or maintenance operations   
					without first having disconnected your appliance from the mains   
					power supply (by unplugging it or turning off the cut-out switch   
					in your home); turning the thermostat knob to " " is not   
					enough to eliminate all electric contacts.   
					8. Before having your old refrigerator picked up for disposal,   
					remove or make inoperable any locking devices to prevent chil-   
					dren who might play in or around the appliance from being   
					locked inside.   
					9. Before calling for service/assistance in the case of malfunc-   
					tion, consult the chapter entitled “Is There a Problem? to de-   
					termine whether it is possible to eliminate the problem. do not   
					try to repair the problem by trying to access the internal com-   
					ponents of the appliance.   
					10. If damaged, the power supply cord on this appliance   
					must necessarily be replaced by our service centre because   
					special tools are required for replacement.   
					11. Do not use electric appliances inside the compartment for   
					food storage, if these are not those recommended by the   
					manufacturer.   
					12. At the end of the functional life of your appliance –   
					containing cyclopentane gas in the insulation foam and perhaps   
					gas R600a (isobutane) in the refrigeration circuit – the latter   
					should made safe before being sent to the dump.   
					For this operation, please contact your dealer or the Local   
					Organisation in charge of waste disposal.   
					Read your manual carefully since it contains instructions   
					which will ensure safe installation, use and maintenance of   
					your appliance.   
					Your Refrigerator is built to International safety standards   
					(EN60) ans has been awarded the European approval mark   
					(IMQ) for compliance with UK electrical safety requirements.   
					It also meets the EC standards on the prevention and elimi-   
					nation of readio interference (EC directive 87/308 - 02.06.89).   
					1. This appliance must not be installed outdoors - not even in   
					an area protected by a roof. It is extremely dangerous to leave   
					it exposed to rain or storms.   
					2. It must only be used by adults and exclusively to refrigerate   
					and freeze foodstuffs, following the instructions for use con-   
					tained in this manual.   
					3. Do not ever touch or handle the appliance with bare feet or   
					with wet hands or feet.   
					4. It is highly recommended that you do not use extension   
					cords or multiple socket adapters. If the refrigerator is installed   
					between cabinets, make sure that the cord is not bent or dan-   
					gerously pinched or compressed.   
					5. Never pull on the cord or the refrigerator to remove the plug   
					from the wall socket - this is very dangerous.   
					6. Never touch the cooling components within the appliance,   
					especially with wet hands because this could result in injury.   
					Never put ice cubes just removed from the freezer into your   
					Installation   
					Levelling   
					Proper installation of the appliance is essential to en-   
					sure the best and most efficient performance of your   
					appliance.   
					The floor should be perfectly level; if not, you can adjust the   
					feet at the front of the appliance.   
					Earthing   
					Ventilation   
					Before making the electrical connection, check that the volt-   
					age shown on the data plate, that you will find on the bot-   
					tom left hand side of the appliance next to the crisper, cor-   
					responds to that of your home and that the socket is earthed   
					in compliance with all current electrical regulations. If the   
					system is not earthed, the manufacturer declines all liability   
					for consequent damages or losses. Do not use adapters or   
					multiple sockets.   
					The compressor and condenser generate heat and, there-   
					fore, need to be ventilated properly. Rooms with less than   
					perfect ventilation are not very suited for installation of the   
					appliance. Therefore, it should be installed in a room with   
					an opening (window or French window) that provide the   
					appropriate amount of air re-circulation. It is also important   
					that the room not be too humid.   
					During installation, make sure not to cover or obstruct the   
					grates that allow for proper ventilation of the appliance.   
					For proper ventilation of the appliance, you must leave:   
					- a space of at least 10 cm between the top part and any   
					cabinets above it;   
					Position the appliance in such a way that you can access   
					the socket where it is plugged in.   
					Check the power load   
					The electrical socket must support the maximum power load   
					of the appliance shown on the data plate (on the bottom   
					left hand side of the appliance next to the crisper).   
					- a space of at least 5 cm between the sides of the appliance   
					and any adjacent cabinets/walls.   
					Away from Heat   
					Avoid positioning the appliance in a place where it is directly   
					exposed to sunlight or near an oven, cook top or the like.   
					Before plugging the appliance to the mains   
					Stand the appliance upright and wait at least 3 hours before   
					plugging the appliance into the mains to ensure proper per-   
					formance.

				As the colours of the wires in the mains lead may not   
					correspond with the coloured markings identifying the   
					terminals in your plug, proceed as follows:   
					Electrical connection   
					Your appliance is now supplied with a 13 amp fused plug that   
					can be plugged into a 13 amp socket for immediate use. Before   
					using the appliance please read the instructions below.   
					WARNING - THIS APPLIANCE MUST BE EARTHED.   
					THE FOLLOWING OPERATIONS SHOULD BE CARRIED   
					OUT BY A QUALIFIED ELECTRICIAN.   
					Connect Green & Yellow wire to terminal marked “E” or   
					or coloured Green or Green & Yellow.   
					Connect Brown wire to terminal marked “L” or coloured   
					Red.   
					Connect Blue wire to terminal marked “N” or coloured Black.   
					If a 13 amp plug (BS 1363) is used it must be fitted with a 13   
					amp fuse. A 15 amp plug must be protected by a 15 amp   
					fuse, either in the plug or adaptor or at the distribution board.   
					If you are in any doubt about the electrical supply to your   
					machine, consult a qualified electrician before use.   
					Replacing the fuse:   
					When replacing a faulty fuse, a 13 amp ASTA approved fuse   
					to BS 1362 should always be used, and the fuse cover re-   
					fitted. If the fuse cover is lost, the plug must not be used   
					until a replacement is obtained.   
					Replacement fuse covers:   
					How to connect an alternative plug:   
					If a replacement fuse cover is fitted, it must be of the correct   
					colour as indicated by the coloured marking or the colour that   
					is embossed in words on the base of the plug. Replacements   
					can be obtained directly from your nearest Service Depot.   
					The wires in this mains lead are coloured in accordance with   
					the following code:   
					BLUE   
					“NEUTRAL” (“N”)   
					“LIVE” (“L”)   
					BROWN   
					GREEN AND YELLOW   
					“EARTH” (“E”)   
					Removing the plug:   
					If your appliance has a non-rewireable moulded plug and   
					you should wish to remove it to add a cable extension or to   
					re-route the mains cable through partitions, units etc., please   
					ensure that either:   
					- the plug is replaced by a fused 13 amp re-wireable plug   
					bearing the BSI mark of approval   
					GREEN &   
					YELLOW   
					13 ampere fuse   
					BROWN   
					BLUE   
					CROSS-BAR   
					CORD GRIP   
					or:   
					- the mains cable is wired directly into a 13 amp cable outlet,   
					controlled by a switch, (in compliance with BS 5733) which   
					is accessible without moving the appliance.   
					Disposing of the plug:   
					Disposing of the appliance:   
					Ensure that before disposing of the plug itself, you make   
					the pins unusable so that it cannot be accidentally inserted   
					into a socket. Instructions for connecting cable to an   
					alternative plug:   
					When disposing of the appliance please remove the plug by   
					cutting the mains cable as close as possible to the plug body   
					and dispose of it as described above.

				How to Start the Appliance   
					After having plugged the appliance in, make sure that pilot   
					lamp "C" is lit. If not, make sure that the freezer knob "E" is not   
					on position " ".   
					Refrigerator compartment   
					Set knob "A" onto a medium position (3) and you can place   
					food in the fridge after only a few hours.   
					NOTICE   
					After the appliance has been delivered, stand it in the   
					upright position and wait approximately 3 hours be-   
					fore connecting it to the electrical outlet to guarantee   
					that it operates properly.   
					Before placing foodstuffs in the refrigerator or freezer, clean   
					the interior well with warm water and baking soda.   
					Freezer compartment   
					Set knob "E" onto a medium position (3) and press button   
					"F" for rapid freezing (yellow pilot lamp "D" will come on).   
					When the freezer has reached the optimum temperature, the   
					red alarm lamp "B" will come off. Press button "F" again;   
					yellow lamp "D" off. Now you can place frozen food in the   
					freezer.   
					Motor protection delay   
					This model is provided with a motor protection control   
					system. Therefore, if the compressor does not start   
					immediately upon installation, do not worry as it will   
					start automatically after approximately 8 minutes.   
					This is also what will happen every time the power   
					supply is interrupted, both due to a power failure or   
					should you switch it off yourself (to clean or defrost   
					your freezer, for example).

				The temperature inside the refrigerator compartment auto-   
					matically adjusts itself according to the position of the tem-   
					perature regulator knob.   
					Remember to cool hot food before storing, otherwise the   
					temperature inside the appliance will increase, causing the   
					compressor to work harder and use more energy.   
					1 = least cold   
					We recommend, however, a medium position.   
					5 = coldest   
					Do not place liquids in containers without covering them   
					because this will lead to an increase in the level of moisture   
					within the refrigerator, causing the formation of frost.   
					Air in the refrigerator circulates naturally so that colder,   
					heavier air tends to descend towards the bottom. This is   
					why meat and cheese should be stored just above the crisper.   
					Please follow our instructions carefully on maximum stor-   
					age time: any food, even the freshest, will not remain edible   
					for any extended amount of time.

					Contrary to popular belief, cooked foods do not store any   
					longer than raw food.   
					The practical removable shelves (Fig. 1), whose height can   
					be adjusted thanks to special guides, allow you to insert   
					even large containers and larger sized foods. The innovative   
					shape of the shelves allows you to adjust their height with-   
					out having to remove them completely.   
					Fig. 1   
					How to use the freezer compartment...   
					For the preparation of food to be frozen, please con-   
					sult a specialized manual.   
					There is no need to defrost the freezer since the “ventilated   
					cold air” cooling system prevents the formation of frost and   
					ice on the walls. Moreover, frost does not form on the packets   
					of frozen foods which will therefore not stick together and   
					will be easy for you to recognise.   
					2. For large quantities of food to be frozen (up until the   
					maximum load indicated on the data plate), keep the freezing   
					button “F” pressed down until the yellow lamp starts flashing   
					quickly. After 24 hours, the yellow lamp will stop flashing   
					(permanently lit); you can now insert the food to be frozen.   
					After 24 hours, the button will switch itself off automatically   
					(yellow lamp off).   
					Food that has be thawed, even partially, must not be re-   
					frozen: you must cook it in order to consume it (within 24   
					hours) or to freeze it once again.   
					During the freezing process, avoid opening the door of the   
					freezer.   
					When freezing fresh foods, remember that they should not   
					touch other previously frozen or deep frozen foods. Place   
					the food that you wish to freeze in the top compartment   
					"M" where the temperature will fall below -18°C, which is   
					ideal for freezing food properly. Remember that proper con-   
					servation depends on the speed of freezing.   
					The maximum amount of food you can freeze per day is   
					indicated on the data plate situated inside the refrigerator   
					compartment.   
					The first time, or after the freezer has been inactive, you can   
					only freeze food after having let the appliance function at   
					maximum and the red lamp "B" has come off.   
					When the appliance is already on, freezing can be done in   
					two ways:   
					In order to freeze and then thaw foods optimally, it is rec-   
					ommended that you divide food into small portions so that   
					they freeze quickly and uniformly. The packages should be   
					clearly marked with the content and the date they were   
					frozen.   
					In order to obtain a larger amount of space in the freezer   
					compartment, you can remove the central drawer, and place   
					the food directly onto the evaporator plate. Make sure that,   
					after having inserted the load, the door closes correctly.   
					Do not open the freezer door in the event of a power failure   
					or malfunction. This precaution will slow the rise in tem-   
					perature within the compartment. If the door is not opened,   
					frozen and fast-frozen foods will remain in their current state   
					for approximately 9-14 hours.   
					1. for small quantities, less than the maximum capacity   
					indicated on the data plate, just press the freezing button   
					“F” (yellow lamp “D” lit) and insert the food to be frozen.   
					After 24 hours, or once the optimum temperatures have   
					been reached, the rapid freezing function will switch itself   
					off automatically (yellow lamp “D” off).   
					Do not place full bottles in the freezer: they could easily   
					burst because all liquids increase in volume when they freeze.

				compartment.   
					Ice trays   
					Once the ice has formed, all you need to do is to knock the   
					tray against a hard surface so that the ice cubes come away   
					from their housing and come out of the same hole used to   
					fill the tray with water. To make it easier for the ice cubes to   
					come out, wet the outside of the tray.   
					WARNING: every time you fill up the ice tray with water ,   
					make sure that the same is completely empty and that there   
					are no traces of ice left inside it.   
					This new concept of ice trays is an exclusive Merloni patent.   
					The fact that they are situated on the inner door of the   
					freezer compartment ensures greater ergonomics and   
					cleanliness: the ice no longer comes into contact with the   
					food placed inside the freezer compartment; furthermore,   
					the dripping of the water during filling is avoided (a lid to   
					cover up the hole after filling with water is also provided).   
					The minimum time required for ice to form well is   
					approximately 8 hours.   
					Instructions for use (Fig. 2)   
					Fill up the tray with water via the special hole up to the level   
					indicated (MAX WATER LEVEL), taking care not to exceed it:   
					inserting more water than is necessary will lead to the   
					formation of ice which could obstruct the exit of the ice   
					cubes.   
					If you have used an excessive amount of water, you will   
					have to wait until the ice has melted, empty out the tray   
					and re-fill it with water.   
					Once you have filled the ice tray up with water through the   
					hole indicated, turn it by 90 °. Thanks to the connected   
					compartments, the water fills up the special shapes, after   
					which you can cover the hole up with the special cap and   
					place the ice tray in the inner door of the freezer   
					Fig. 2   
					Tips on Saving Energy   
					- Keep an Eye on the Seals   
					Keep the seals clean and make sure that they adhere well to   
					the door. This alone will ensure that no cold air escapes.   
					- Install it well   
					And therefore far from heat sources, from direct sunlight, in   
					a well aired place and according to the distances indicated   
					in the section on "Installation/Aeration".   
					- No Hot Foods   
					- Just the right cold   
					Too cold a compartment increases energy consumption.   
					A hot pot or pan placed in the refrigerator immediately raises   
					the temperature several degrees. Let hot cookware and food   
					cool to ambient temperature before placing them in the re-   
					frigerator.   
					- Do not Overfill   
					To conserve food properly, the cold air must circulate freely   
					within the refrigerator. If it is overfilled, this will prevent proper   
					air circulation, forcing the compressor to work continuously.   
					- Close the Doors   
					Open your refrigerator as little as possible because each time   
					you do so you loose much of the cold air. To raise the tem-   
					perature to the proper level again, the motor must work for   
					a long time, consuming energy.

				Keeping Your Appliance in Shape   
					Before doing any cleaning, disconnect the appliance   
					from the electricity (by pulling out the plug or turning   
					off the general switch in your home).   
					Cleaning and maintenance   
					Always unplug the appliance from the mains before   
					cleaning.   
					- Your appliance is manufactured with hygienic odourless   
					materials. To preserve these characteristics, always use sealed   
					containers for strong smelling foods to avoid the formation   
					of odours that are difficult to remove.   
					- Use only a water and bicarbonate solution: Clean the   
					internal and exterior of your appliance with a sponge soaked   
					with a warm water and sodium bicarbonate solution, which   
					is also a good disinfectant. If you do not have any sodium   
					bicarbonate at home, use neutral detergent.   
					Defrosting   
					WARNING: do not damage the refrigeration circuit.   
					Do not use mechanical devices or other tools to speed   
					up the defrosting process, unless they have been rec-   
					ommended by the manufacturer.   
					How to Defrost the Refrigerator   
					This appliance defrosts automatically and the water is chan-   
					neled to the back toward the   
					drain installed for this purpose   
					(fig. 3). Here, the heat pro-   
					- What not to use: Do not use abrasive detergents, bleach or   
					detergents containing ammonia. Never use solvent based   
					products.   
					- Dishwashable: All the removable parts can be cleaned by   
					soaking in hot soapy water or detergent. If you own a   
					dishwasher, you may wash these parts in the dishwasher.   
					Remember to dry thoroughly before replacing them.   
					- What about the back panel? Dust may deposit on the back   
					panel and affect the proper running of the appliance. To   
					remove dust, vacuum away the dust very carefully using the   
					appropriate vacuum cleaner accessory.   
					- Discontinued use of the appliance: If the appliance is not in   
					use for any length of time, remember to clean the interior   
					and dry thoroughly, leaving the doors open to prevent the   
					formation of bad odours and mould.   
					duced by the compressor will   
					make it evaporate. The only   
					thing you must do is to peri-   
					odically check and clean the   
					hole of the drain, which is lo-   
					cated behind the vegetable   
					crispers, so that the water   
					drains properly.   
					Fig. 3   
					How to defrost the freezer compartment.   
					There is no need to defrost the freezer since the “ventilated   
					cold air” cooling system prevents the formation of frost and   
					ice on the walls.   
					- Replacing the light bulb.   
					When replacing the light of the refrigerator compartment   
					unplug the unit from the power supply and chang the used   
					lamp with another one of not more than 15 W.   
					For access ti lamp "A", remove the centre screw "B" at the   
					back of the lamp cover, as indicated in fig. 4.

				Is There a Problem?   
					The refrigerator does not function.   
					There is water on the bottom of the refrigerator.   
					Have you checked whether:   
					• The main switch for the electricity to the apartment or   
					home has been turned off;   
					Have you checked whether:   
					• The hole for draining the water from the frost is clogged   
					(see fig. 3).   
					• The plug is properly inserted in the outlet;   
					• The outlet is adequate; try inserting the plug into another   
					outlet in the room.   
					The motor does not start   
					Have you checked whether:   
					• 8 minutes have passed since you switched the   
					appliance on?   
					This model is in fact provided with a motor protection   
					control system which means that it will only start   
					approximately 8 minutes after being switched on.   
					If after all the checks, the appliance still does not operate or   
					the problem persists, call the nearest Service Centre and   
					inform them of: the type of problem, the abbreviation of   
					the model name (Mod.) and the relative numbers (S/N) writ-   
					ten on the rating plate located at the bottom left next to   
					the vegetable crisper (see examples in the figures below).   
					The refrigerator and the freezer do not cool   
					properly.

					• The doors are not closed well or have remained open too   
					long;   
					• The ambient temperature is too high;   
					• The thermostat knob is not on the proper setting.   
					Never call on unauthorized technicians and always   
					refuse spare parts which are not originals.   
					The appliance makes too much noise.   
					The gas refrigerant produces a slight noise even when the   
					compressor is not running (this is not a defect).   
					“No Frost” refrigerators have a fan which circulates cold air   
					in the appliance. This fan makes a slight noise which is quite   
					normal for this “No-frost” refrigerators.   
					Have you checked whether:   
					• The refrigerator is level.   
					• The appliance was installed between cabinets or objects   
					that vibrate and make noise.
