DAILY USE
FUNCTIONS
ON/STANDBY
To put the product in Stand-by, press and hold the On / Standby button for 3
seconds. All the temperature indicators turn off. Press again to reactivate
the appliance (see the Instructions for Use).
TEMPERATURE SETTING
- Press the Temperature button on the control panel to adjust the temperature from the warmest through the lower to the coldest level.
- Pressing the Temperature button, the temperature setting will change cyclically.
- At first plug-in of the appliance temperature setpoint is present at a medium position (factory setting).
FAST FREEZING
- The use of the Fast Freezing function is recommended: to increase the cooling capacity of the freezer compartment when placing a very high quantity of food within it.
- To activate the Fast Freezing function, press the Temperature button cyclically on the control panel till all the 3 LEDs blink and remain on.
- The function is automatically deactivated after 48 hours and return to the previously selected set point.
- The function can be manually deactivated by pressing the Temperature button on the control panel.
TEMPERATURE INDICATOR
Temperature indicator informs you if the temperature in this cavity is cold enough for storage with the word “OK”.
- Check that OK appears clearly on the indicator light (see the picture below).
- If the word “OK” does not appear it means that the temperature is too high: set a lower temperature and wait approximately 10 hours until the temperature has been stabilized.
- Check the indicator light again: if necessary, readjust it following the initial process. If large quantities of food have been added or if the refrigerator door has been opened frequently, it is normal for the indicator not to show OK. Wait at least 10 hours before adjusting the REFRIGERATOR OPERATION knob to a higher setting.
FOOD CARE ZONE 0°C / SAFE DEFROST
A compartment designed to keep delicate food such as meat and fish fresh. The low temperature in the compartment makes it possible to store the food for up to one week – tests performed on meat products – without changing its nutrients, appearance, and flavor.
The compartment is also very suitable for healthy food defrosting, as low- temperature defrosting prevents any proliferation of microorganisms while protecting its taste and organoleptic properties. It is not suitable for fruit, vegetables, and green salad. But it can be used for stuffed fresh pasta and even cooked food or leftovers.
FRUIT AND VEGETABLE BIN
The salad crispers fitted inside the fridge have been specially designed for the purpose of keeping fruit and vegetables fresh and crisp. Open the humidity regulator (position B) if you want to store food in a less humid environment like fruit, or close it (position A) to store food in a more humid environment like vegetables.
SHELVES
Due to the special guides, the shelves are removable and the height is adjustable, allowing easy storage of large containers and food.
ICE DEVICE
After pouring water into the special ice cups, place them in their places in the ice device. After about 2 hours, the ice cubes will be ready. In order to get the ice cubes, it will be sufficient to turn the two buttons to the right. The ice cubes will fall into the tray below, ready to be used.

HOW TO STORE FOOD AND BEVERAGE
FRIDGE COMPARTMENT
Use recyclable plastic, metal, aluminum, and glass containers and cling film to wrap foods. Always use closed containers for liquids and for food that may give off or be tainted by odor or flavor transfer or cover them. If you have a little quantity of food to store in the refrigerator, we recommend using the shelves above the crisper for fruits and vegetables since this is the coolest area of the compartment.
Foods that give off a large amount of ethylene gas and those that are sensitive to this gas, such as fruit, vegetables, and salad, should always be separated or wrapped so as not to reduce the storage life; for example, do not store tomatoes together with kiwi fruits or cabbage. To avoid bottles falling over, you can use the bottle holder (available on selected models). Do not store food too close together to enable sufficient air circulation.
FREEZER COMPARTMENT
The freezer is the ideal storage location for storing frozen food, making ice cubes, and freezing fresh food in the freezer compartment. The maximum number of kilograms of fresh food that can be frozen within a 24-hour period is indicated on the rating plate (…kg/24h). If you have a little quantity of food to store in the freezer, we recommend using the coldest areas of your freezer compartment, corresponding to the middle area.
