[. . . ] Fridge/freezer combined Installation and use MBA 3831 V MBA 3832 V GB Fridge/freezer combined Instructions for installation and use To maintain the EFFICIENCY and SAFETY of this appliance, we recommend: - use only the MANUFACTURER Service - use only ORIGINAL Spare Parts Safety - a good habit to get into. ATTENTION 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 elimination of readio interference (EC directive 87/308 - 02. 06. 89). This appliance must not be installed outdoors - not even in an area protected by a roof. [. . . ] If the door is not opened, frozen and fast-frozen foods will remain in their current state for approximately 9-14 hours. Do not place full bottles in the freezer: they could easily burst because all liquids increase in volume when they freeze. GB 6 Ice trays 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). To remove the ice trays from their housings, push the tray upwards and then pull it out (fig. To put the tray back in place, insert the top part into the special housing and, once in a vertical position, just let it drop into place. 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. The minimum time required for ice to form well is approximately 8 hours. MAX WATER LEVEL WATER LEVEL MAX 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 compartment. 7 GB Guide to Using the Freezer Meat and Fish Food Beef Roast Lamb Pork Roast Veal Roast Wrapping Tinfoil Tinfoil Tinfoil Tinfoil Each piece wrapped in cling wrap and then in tinfoil (4 to 6 slices) Each piece wrapped in cling wrap and then in tinfoil (4 to 6 slices) In aluminium containers covered with cling wrap.
