Safeguarding the environment Declaration of conformity • This appliance has been designed for preserving food and is manufactured in compliance with Regulation (CE) No. 1935/2004. • This appliance has been designed, manufactured and marketed in compliance with: - safety objectives of the “Low Voltage" Directive 2006/95/CE (which replaces 73/23/CEE and subsequent amendments); - the protection requirements of Directive “EMC" 89/336/EEC amended by Directive 93/68/EEC.
Precautions and general recommendations INSTALLATION • The appliance must be handled and installed by two or more persons. • Be careful not to damage the floors (e.g. parquet) when moving the appliance. • During installation, make sure the appliance does not damage the power cable. • Make sure the appliance is not near a heat source. • To guarantee adequate ventilation, leave a space on both sides and above the appliance and follow the installation instructions.
Installation • Install the appliance away from heat sources.

Using the refrigerator compartment Switching the appliance on and temperature adjustment Switch the power to the appliance on. If you have purchased a model with antibacterial filter, the filter should be fitted in place now. (refer to “Maintenance and cleaning” of the appliance). The ideal temperatures for preserving foods are already factory set.
Using the freezer compartment The NO FROST freezer compartment has a star rating. It can be used to store frozen foods for the period of time indicated on the food packaging. The freezer can also be used to freeze fresh food by placing it on the upper rack or drawer, while the already frozen food should be stored in the other drawers, thus avoiding any contact with food that is still to be frozen. The quantity of fresh food that can be frozen in a 24 hour period is given on the rating plate.
Using the freezer compartment Freezer compartment alarms Freezer compartment temperature alarm When the appliance is working or during the freezing phase, the red warning light (10) may come on in conjunction with an acoustic signal, indicating that the freezer compartment temperature is not optimum for food storage.

Maintenance and cleaning Fan and antibacterial filter (if fitted): The refrigerator compartment is fitted with a fan, light and antibacterial filter module (if applicable). The fan ensures a better distribution of the temperature inside the refrigerator compartment, with a better preservation of the food. The antibacterial filter ensures a high level of hygiene inside the refrigeration compartment through a continuous purification of the air.
Troubleshooting guide Before contacting the Customer Care Centre… Operation problems are often due to minor causes that can be found and fixed without using any tools. Noises from appliances are normal since the fans and compressors for controlling its operation switch on and off automatically. Some operation noises can be reduced by: • Levelling the appliance and installing it on a flat surface • Separating and preventing contact of the appliance with the cabinets.
Troubleshooting guide 4. The inside light does not work. • Open door alarm activated (light off and displays always on). - Check that the door of the refrigerator compartment closes correctly to deactivate such alarm (when the door is correctly closed the displays on the control panel should go off). Once the door is open again, check that the lamp is working. Should the display not go off when the door is correctly closed, contact the Customer Care Centre.
After-Sales Service Before contacting KitchenAid Customer Care: Switch the appliance on again to see if the problem has been solved. If it has not, switch off the appliance again and repeat the operation after one hour.
