[. . . ] Depending on its climate class (stated on the nameplate inside), the wine cellar can be used in different temperature conditions: Class SN (Subnormal) N (Normal) ST (Subtropical) T (Tropical) Ambient temperature from + 10° C to + 32° C from + 16° C to + 32° C from + 18° C to + 38° C from + 18° C to + 43° C Never place the refrigerator close to heat sources. If this is unavoidable, a suitable insulating panel must be used to allow the appliance to function properly. Otherwise, place the appliance at least 3 cm from electric or gas cookers and at least 30 cm from combustion or radiation heating systems. To allow proper cooling of the condenser, the refrigerator must not be placed too close to the wall. To prevent this, the appliance comes complete with two plastic spacers which must be fitted to the top of the appliance as shown in the drawing. If the refrigerator is installed underneath a wall cupboard, the distance between the two must be at least 5 cm. Take care not to scratch or damage the floor when installing the appliance on parquet or linoleum. If necessary, when positioning slide the refrigerator over pieces of wood or a mat to the point decided for connection to the electrical mains. 3. 2 Positioning and levelling the appliance Place the refrigerator on a firm, level surface. To compensate for any unevenness in the floor, the appliance has two adjustable feet at the front (fig. The appliance is also equipped with 2 wheels (fig. 2) at the back to stabilise it and make it easier to position. The NO-FROST system with which the appliance is equipped ensures constant temperature operation and higher cooling power. The air which is fan-driven is free of humidity and quickly dries the food placed in the refrigerator compartment. This is another reason to make sure that the food placed in the refrigerator is sealed. 22 Instructions for the User The dry ventilation air chills the food more quickly; the NO FROST system ensures that the temperature is kept more constant Place the food inside the refrigerator compartment as shown in the drawing 6. 2. 1 Special meat and fish storage compartment Some delicate foods such as meat, fish and lightly frozen foods can be stored in the special chilled room drawer, in which the temperature is constantly kept at around 0°C. 6. 3 Freezing foods For proper storage and freezing, fruit and vegetables should be packed in portions of not more than 1 kg and meat and fish up to a max. Small packages of food freeze more quickly, giving better conservation of their nutrients and flavour, even after thawing and preparation. Use only freezer bags, aluminium film, food-approved polyethylene film and freezer containers. Do not use paper bags, non food-approved cellophane bags, shopping bags or used freezer bags. Pack foods in airtight packs and try to expel all the air. If using bags, close the packs with the elastic bands or plastic-coated wire strips provided. Always cool hot foods to room temperature before placing them in the freezer and do not allow frozen foods to touch fresh foods for freezing. Always mark packs with the date of freezing, quantity and type of food and make sure that foods are fresh and in good condition. amount of fresh foods which can be frozen in a 24-hour period is marked on the nameplate. [. . . ] In this case, check that: - the refrigerator is properly levelled on the floor and does not vibrate when the compressor is in operation: adjust the feet provided as appropriate; - The drawers, shelves and door boxes are correctly fitted and securely in place: fit correctly; - Bottles and containers on the various shelves are stable and not touching: the vibration due to operation of the compressor may generate some noise; - Do not place kitchen units or other appliances so that they are touching the refrigerator. 7. 5 Identifying and Dealing with Malfunctions Your new refrigerator is designed and built to strict quality standards. This section is intended to enable you to identify the origin of any malfunctions which may occur before contacting the Smeg After-Sales Service. 7. 6 Changing the inside light bulb Before changing the bulb, make sure that the light has not stopped working simply because the part inside the lamp socket has become loose. In all cases, whether you wish to check that the socket is connected correctly or change the bulb, for safety reasons the plug must be removed from the power socket. Use your fingers to remove the cover (in the direction shown by the arrow) so that it exits from its seat. [. . . ]
