[. . . ] THE ENVIRONMENT - DISPOSAL INSTRUCTIONS OUR REFRIGERATORS ARE ONLY PACKAGED USING NON-POLLUTANT, ENVIRONMENTFRIENDLY, RECYCLABLE MATERIALS. WE URGE YOU TO COOPERATE BY DISPOSING OF THE PACKAGING PROPERLY. CONTACT YOUR LOCAL DEALER OR THE COMPETENT LOCAL ORGANISATIONS FOR THE ADDRESSES OF COLLECTION, RECYCLING AND DISPOSAL FACILITIES. NEVER LEAVE ALL OR PART OF THE PACKAGING LYING AROUND: PACKAGING PARTS, AND ESPECIALLY PLASTIC BAGS, MAY REPRESENT A SUFFOCATION HAZARD FOR CHILDREN. [. . . ] THE MANUFACTURER DECLINES ALL LIABILITY FOR USES OTHER THAN THOSE STATED ABOVE. NEVER USE THIS APPLIANCE FOR COOLING ROOMS. THIS APPLIANCE IS MARKED ACCORDING TO THE EUROPEAN DIRECTIVE 2002/96/EC ON WASTE ELECTRICAL AND ELECTRONIC EQUIPMENT (WEEE). THIS GUIDELINE IS THE FRAME OF A EUROPEAN-WIDE VALIDITY OF RETURN AND RECYCLING ON WASTE ELECTRICAL AND ELECTRONIC EQUIPMENT. NEVER OBSTRUCT THE OPENINGS AND SLITS PROVIDED FOR VENTILATION AND HEAT DISPERSAL. SETTING THE THERMOSTAT TOO LOW IN SUMMER MAY CONSIDERABLY INCREASE ICE FORMATION ON THE BACK OF THE APPLIANCE, SIGNIFICANTLY REDUCING ITS EFFICIENCY. DURING THE SUMMER OR WHENEVER THE WEATHER IS PARTICULARLY HOT AND/OR HUMID, THE APPLIANCE SHOULD BE KEPT AT A FAIRLY HIGH SETTING (MIN-MED) TO PREVENT ICE FROM BUILDING UP IN THE BACK OF THE INTERIOR, CAUSING LOSS OF EFFICIENCY. DURING OPERATION, THE APPLIANCE'S REAR SURFACE MAY HEAT UP CONSIDERABLY; THIS IS QUITE NORMAL AND DOES NOT INDICATE A MALFUNCTION. THE NAMEPLATE WITH THE TECHNICAL DATA, SERIAL NUMBER AND MARK ARE INSIDE THE APPLIANCE. IT IS BEST TO OPEN THE DOOR AS LITTLE AS POSSIBLE, PARTICULARLY IN HOT WEATHER. OPENING THE DOOR OFTEN OR LEAVING IT OPEN WILL CAUSE VARIATIONS IN TEMPERATURE INSIDE THE APPLIANCE WHICH MIGHT LEAD TO PROBLEMS IN DRINK STORAGE PERFORMANCE. 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. 15 Safety Precautions 3. 2 Make sure that sufficient ventilation reaches the refrigeration unit, on the rear of the minibar. If the appliance is installed against a wall, ensure that air can circulate freely around its sides. 3 Take care that the minibar is installed perfectly; if necessary, check with a spirit level on its top. 1) 17 Instructions for the Installer 4. 2 Fully Built-In Version Minibars can easily be built into any suitable cabinet. It is essential to comply with the following guidelines: 1 Make sure that sufficient ventilation can reach the refrigeration unit, on the rear of the minibar. 2) show various alternatives for building-in your minibar; 3 The ventilation gaps, for both incoming and outgoing air, must measure at least 200 cm2 and it is indispensable to take care that any ventilation grilles cannot be obstructed in any way. All minibar models are equipped: - with two fixing plates in the base; - with a door with linkage fixtures for opening and closing, which connect the door of the appliance to the door of the cabinet in which it is to be built-in. The minibar is delivered with the door hinged on the right-hand side. If you wish to open it in the other direction please refer to paragraph "4. 5 Changin the doorhang". The top right-hand hinge will be fitted at bottom left, and vice-versa. To fit the top hinge, remove the cap over the hole provided and reuse it to plug the hole in the original hinge fitting position. Place the minibar inside the cabinet, centring it so that any gaps are the same on both sides. [. . . ] Only use the highest setting (7) if absolutely necessary: in some conditions, the refrigeration unit might operate continuously, causing excessive ice formation, leading to higher electricity consumption. WHEN THE APPLIANCE IS USED FOR THE FIRST TIME AN UNPLEASANT SMELL IS NORMAL. THIS DOES NOT MEAN THE APPLIANCE IS MALFUNCTIONING; IT IS CAUSED BY DISPERSAL OF THE OILY RESIDUES LEFT DURING MANUFACTURING. AFTER A FEW HOURS IN OPERATION, THIS SMELL WILL HAVE DISAPPEARED. 6.
