Once the appliance is placed correctly, adjust the height of the appliance by turning the 4 adjustable feet as appropriate. If necessary, appliances should be braced with a bracket fixed by screws and fitted in furniture (Fig. 11). There is a special strip at the top of the appliance. Attach it to the underside of the cabinet with appropriate screws supplied with the assembly kit (Fig. 16).
  • The decorative strip must not block the vents located in the bottom casing unit, the strip must be cut to size (Fig. 17). The depth of the bottom casing unit can be adjusted by moving it forwards or backward.
  • Once properly adjusted, tighten the mounting screws (located in the openings on both sides of the casing unit) with a cross-head screwdriver.
  • This will permanently attach the casing unit (Fig. 18).

FITTING FURNITURE BOARD TO APPLIANCE DOOR

  • Place the mounting bracket on the furniture board and position it accordingly (Fig. 12). The distance between the furniture board and the underside of the worktop should be 5 mm (Fig. 13).
  • Attach the mounting bracket using suitable screws supplied in the installation kit. Pull out the mounting bracket cover and screw in the two special screws (2) in the appliance doors (Fig. 14).
  • Attach the furniture board with the fixed mounting bracket to the appliance door. Secure the furniture board with suitable nuts (item 3, Figure 14).
  • Make sure the furniture board assembly is positioned correctly relative to the appliance (Fig. 15).
  • Using the supplied screws, attach the furniture board assembly to the bottom of the appliance door (Fig. 15).
  • Replace the mounting bracket cover in its original location.
  • Do not use washing liquids, sharp or abrasive household products, or any other cleaning agents containing soda.
  • Make sure that the pipes for the circulation of the refrigerant are not damaged in any way during the installation of the appliance.
  • The appliance must only be used for the purpose for which it is intended.
  • The appliance must be placed on a firm, level surface.
  • This is the only way to ensure that the refrigerant can circulate freely and thus ensure that your appliance will work efficiently.
  • If possible, place your appliance in a cool, well-aired, dry room.
  • Do not place your appliance in direct sunlight or a room at high temperature.
  • Do not place your appliance in the vicinity of any sources of direct heat such as heating, ovens, cooking stoves, etc.
  • (This would mean the compressor would have to work harder and as a result, the power consumption would be considerably higher).
  • Do not place any appliances, such as microwaves, toasters, etc. which give off heat on the appliance.
  • Never obstruct the ventilation grille.
  • Always pull out the plug itself and never pull the cable when cutting the appliance off from the main supply.
  • Leave the appliance standing in its final position for at least 2 –4 hours before switching it on, so that the circulation of the refrigerant stabilizes and no operating problems occur.
  • Before connecting up the appliance, make sure that it is absolutely dry inside – especially in the corners.
  • Depending on its composition, the refrigerant can be easily inflammable. The refrigerant circuit has been hermetically sealed and has been tested many times for possible leaks.
  • Any inexpert interference might well create a fire hazard. Make sure nothing mechanically affects the circulation of the refrigerant, nor, in particular, the accessible parts around the compressor.
  • Only expert professional personnel should intervene in the refrigerating system.
  • Any refrigerant spilling out can injure your eyes.
  • In the event of eye contact with the refrigerant, wash your eyes instantly under plenty of running water and call/consult a doctor (an eye specialist) immediately.

  • Note: During the SF period, the Led of position 5 will keep blinking.

Warning!

  • Do not store any bottled liquids in the freezer. Liquids expand when frozen and the bottle may explode.
  • Never keep explosive substances or aerosol cans with inflammable propellants such as butane, propane, pentane, etc. in the freezer. Any escaping gases could be ignited by electrical components.
  • Such aerosol cans can be recognized by the list of contents or by the inflammable symbols printed on the can itself.
  • When storing ready-frozen food, you must follow the manufacturer’s instructions on the food packaging.
  • Deep frozen ice-cream and ice lollies must not be eaten until a few minutes after being taken from the freezer to avoid injury to lips and tongue (danger of skin detachment).
  • For the same reason, avoid touching the frozen inside walls of the freezer with wet hands.
  • Defrosted or slightly frozen products should be used immediately. As a rule, such products are not suitable for re-freezing.
  • Packaging should be dry to avoid things freezing together.
  • Ready frozen foods should be stored so that they do not come into contact with newly added foods that have not yet frozen.

Freezing / Storing fresh food

  • Almost all fresh products are suitable for freezing and storing in the freezer.
  • For the most common of these products, a storage guide with details of acceptable storage times and the most suitable packaging is provided. (See “Food storage guide” at the back of this user manual).
  • Label fresh products clearly, as they are not easy to identify when deep-frozen in transparent freezer bags.
  • We recommend using commercially available labels for frozen foods.
  • Pack fresh products in portions suitable for your needs to avoid defrosting quantities that are too big for you to use up in one day.

Label the portions with at least the following information:

  • Product name (e.g. beef fillet)
  • Weight of the Portion
  • Quantity (number of pieces)
  • Freezing date
  • Use by date (see “Food storage guide”)

Then continue as follows:

  • a) Berries, fruits with peel, herbs, etc. should be laid out loose for freezing on the freezing tray (not all models are supplied with this) in the upper part of the freezer and then put into freezer bags after about 12 hours.

  • Store the filled freezer bags in one of the available drawers. Fresh food should be placed in the top drawer and moved down to one of the lower drawers after approx. 24 hours.

  • Avoid putting fresh foods directly in contact with deep frozen food. The deep-frozen food could defrost and may not last out of the normal storage time.

  • b) Within 24 hours, fill up the freezer only with adequate quantities of fresh food for the freezing capacity of your freezer.
    Consult the information on the rating plate (XX kg/24h).

  • c) If your freezer is equipped with a SUPER FREEZE SWITCH, switch it on, this is not strictly necessary when filling up with already frozen foods (e.g. deep frozen foods).

  • WARNING! Switch off the SUPER FREEZE SWITCH after 24 hours at the latest.

  • d) Set the temperature dial to a medium to high setting.

  • e) Keep the temperature in the freezing compartment under control preferably by placing a suitable thermometer with a scale range of up to -26°C. The storage temperature must always be at least – 18°C.

  • Refilling the freezer compartment with fresh (not frozen) food

  • Make sure that you wait at least 24 hours before refilling with fresh food, in adequate quantities for the freezing capacity of your freezer (XX kg/24h).

Maximum capacity

  • To ensure correct storage of frozen food, never fill the freezer up to the top.
  • Set the temperature dial strictly according to the filling capacity.
  • To save energy in normal room temperatures ( + 18°C to + 22°C) we recommend setting the temperature dial to a medium setting.

Storage time

  • The storage time for ready deep-frozen products depends on the type of product and on its ingredients. For this reason, you should strictly follow the producer’s instructions on the packaging.
  • When you want to freeze fresh foods yourself, consult the Storage table (chapter 17).
  • Once frozen foods have been defrosted, they should be used up within between 12 to 24 hours.
  • Do not eat any food beyond its storage time; this could lead to food poisoning.

Refrigerating storage battery

  • (Not supplied with all appliances)

Refrigerating storage batteries serve two functions:

  • In the event of a power cut, the storage battery prevents the temperature inside the appliance from going up too much – this preserves the quality of the food for longer.
  • Put storage batteries on the flat side in contact with the uppermost evaporation panel or in the top compartment.
  • Storage batteries can also be used to keep foods cool in a cool box.
  • Storage batteries reach their maximum refrigerating capacity after they have been in the freezer for about 24 hours at – 18° C or lower and are then placed in one of the cool boxes that are commercially available.

Precautions and advice

  • Whenever cleaning or defrosting, remove the power plug or switch off the main fuse.
  • After closing the freezer door, do not open it immediately, and do not force it open under any circumstances. The vacuum created by the sealing of the door is dispersed after about 1 – 2 minutes so that the door can be opened normally again.
  • To prevent condensation and ice forming, allow cooked food to cool down to room temperature before closing the lid of the dish and before storage.
  • Leave the freezer door open as briefly as possible to avoid wasting energy and to prevent an excessive amount of ice from forming in the freezer compartment.
  • If the red pilot light comes on unexpectedly or stays on for a long period, do not open the door on any account and take appropriate measures immediately (see “What to do when…“ at the back of the user manual).
  • Never use a screwdriver or any other sharp-edged metal tool to remove the layers of ice. The inside walls are very delicate and can be easily damaged by sharp edges. Use only plastic or wooden scrapers with no sharp edges.

Cleaning and maintenance

  • As a firm rule, unplug the power plug or switch off at the mains.
  • For the upkeep of the external appearance of your fridge/freezer, clean the outside now and again with furniture polish or with an enamel-protecting product (never, on any account use it inside). Clean the door seal with warm water now and again but do not use any cleaning products.

Clean your appliance regularly

  • The various parts inside the fridge/freezer are generally not suitable for dishwashers. These should be washed by hand with warm water and a little washing-up liquid.
  • Never use the cleaning agent neat and on no account use any abrasive or acid, i.e. chemical cleaning products. A general all-purpose pH-neutral cleaning agent is recommended.
  • The rating plate inside or outside your appliance should not be damaged and should never be removed – this is essential for servicing. Make sure, when cleaning, that no water runs onto any electrical parts inside theappliance.
  • If there is a heat exchanger -called a condenser- on the back of your fridge/freezer, this should be cleaned regularly. Dust and dirt impede the release of heat from the inside and considerably increase energy consumption.
  • For best results, use a soft brush or a duster to remove dust from the condenser.

Special tip for cleaning the fridge

  • Clean the drain hole in the fridge from time to time with, for example, cotton buds, to keep it clear.

Switching off the appliance

  • If your appliance is going to be switched off for longer periods (such as during holidays), it should be left open to prevent odours from building up inside. If your appliance has a lock, set the lock in the “closed” position with the doors open and keep the key well away from small children to prevent accidents.
  • Ice and frost layers which build up to a certain thickness on the inside walls, act as insulation and prevent the dispersion of the coldness. These must be removed from time to time. To remove the layers of ice from the inside walls, use a plastic or wood scraper with no sharp edges.
  • When doing this, remove the drawers and lay a cloth on the bottom of the appliance to catch the ice as it is scraped off so that it can be easily removed.
  • The method least likely to damage your appliance when removing the layers of ice is to defrost it.

Defrosting (Not applicable for NO FROST devices)

  • In normal circumstances (opening the freezer 4 – 5 times a day), the freezer compartment should be defrosted once or twice a year (more often in other circumstances).
  • The fridge compartment is defrosted automatically.

Danger warnings

  • Never use electrical appliances to defrost your appliance, such as a hair dryer, fan heater, dehumidifiers, de-icing sprays or anything with a naked flame (e.g. candles).
  • The plastic inside of your appliance could melt and the escaping gas or foam could be ignited by sparks or by the naked flame.
  • On no account should a steam-cleaning device be used to defrost the layers of ice in the appliance (great risk of an electric shock).

Proceed as follows to defrost your appliance:

  1. Provide a suitable non-metallic container (a plastic container or wash-basket).
  2. Make sure that you remove the plug from the power socket.
  3. Dry your hands thoroughly to prevent skin damage from contact with ice (It is advisable to use gloves).
  4. Remove all frozen food from the freezer and roll it firmly in newspaper place it in the container already prepared and place the container in a cool, dry room.
  5. Cover the container all around with a thick blanket.
  6. Remove the drawers by pulling them as far out as possible and then raising them slightly.
  7. As described previously, scrape the thickest ice carefully from inside the freezer and put it in the kitchen sink.
  8. If your appliance is equipped with a drip duct at the bottom of the appliance, pull it out and place a bowl to catch the dripping water underneath it.
  9. If necessary, speed up defrosting by placing a large bowl of warm (not too hot) water on the bottom of the appliance and close the door.
  10. If your appliance is not equipped with a drip duct, place an absorbent cloth underneath the front of the appliance and wipe up the defrosting water with a sponge.
  11. Thoroughly clean the inside. Wipe it out with warm water and a little vinegar and then rinse it out with clear water.
  12. Dry it thoroughly with a soft cloth and air it for 3-4 minutes.
  13. Close the door and plug the appliance back in.
  14. Reset the temperature dial to the maximum setting.
    • (If your appliance is equipped with green and red pilot lights, these will come on) and if the SUPER FREEZE SWITCH is provided, switch it on.
  15. Now refill the drawers with the frozen food – the oldest items at the top.
    • To prevent the frozen food from defrosting, carry out the steps described above within two hours at the most.
  16. When the red pilot light goes off, reset the temperature dial to a medium setting.
    • If provided, switch off the SUPER FREEZE SWITCH after about 12, but no later than 24 hours.

Changing the light bulb:

  • Under no circumstances should you use a lamp with a wattage greater than that specified on the original lamp.
  • This product contains a light source of energy efficiency class G.
  • LED lights may only be replaced by a qualified specialist.
  • In general, no warranty is given on lamps.

Temperature settings:

  • The temperature must be set according to:
  • room temperature
  • quantity of stored food
  • how often the appliance is opened
  • We recommend a medium setting. You will soon learn, through observation, which is the most suitable setting for your requirements.
  • Interior lighting (not available on all models)
  • For those models equipped with interior lighting, a  Switch has been built in.
  • When the appliance has been switched on at the temperature dial, the light automatically comes on when the fridge door is opened and automatically goes off when the door is closed.
  • The light bulb is protected by a transparent cover.

Temperature range

  • Thanks to the natural air circulation in the fridge compartment there is a range of differing temperatures that is suitable for the storage of different food. The coldest areas are directly over the salad crispers, in the lowest part of the fridge and against the back wall (suitable e.g. for sausages and meats); the warmest areas are in the front upper part and on the door (suitable for spread able butter and cheese).
  • Arrange the food according to the following table and store it not too tightly packed so that the air can circulate freely.
  • Storing food in the fridge (from the top to the bottom)
  1. Door storage compartments
    • a ) Butter, cheese
    • b ) Eggs
    • c ) Small jars or bottles, tins, seasonings
    • d ) Large bottles, tins
  2. Fridge compartment (shelving/glass plates)
    • Preserves
    • pastries, ready-cooked foods
    • Dairy produce / meats and sausages
    • Meats and sausages
    • Vegetables, fruits, salad
  • Food that gives off, or absorbs, a slight odour or taste, as well as liquids, should always be kept in sealed containers or in their packaging; high-proof spirits should be stored upright and tightly closed.
  • Vegetables, fruits, and salad can be stored unpacked in the salad crispers.
  • Plastic and aluminum foils, which can be reused, are suitable for packing food, as are metal or glass containers.
  • Hot foods and drinks should always be allowed to cool down out of the fridge.

Switching the fridge off

  • If the fridge has to be switched off for a long time, press the “power” button for 3 seconds, and the fridge is cleaned as instructed above.
  • While the fridge is off, leave the doors open to prevent odors from building up.

Troubleshooting guide

  • High-quality manufacturing processes and the use of the latest refrigerating and freezing technology will ensure the trouble-free functioning of your appliance.
  • If you suspect any fault, before contacting your nearest service department directly or via your dealer, make sure you have followed all instructions and advice given in this user manual.

Please note:

  • The compressor (also known as the refrigerating motor) must not operate continuously.
  • It is controlled by a thermostat, which you set on the temperature dial and switches on automatically when the set temperature in the appliance is exceeded and switches off automatically when it is reached again.
  • Noise can be heard in every compressor – refrigerating system when it is switched on. These noises are produced when the motor in the compressor is running and by the refrigerant flowing through the refrigerating system circuit. These noises are normal and do not indicate any fault in the functioning of your appliance.
  • In unheated rooms and in cold weather conditions, condensation can build up on the outer walls of the appliance.
  • This does not mean there is a fault and it will disappear when the temperature increases.
  • Only call the service department, if after analysis of the possible fault factors, you cannot find any cause for the defect or you are not able to eliminate the fault.
  • Therefore first check under: „What to do when …“ What to do when…:
  • a) The appliance does not function (it is not running).

Please check:

  • Is the plug in good order and is it plugged in the socket properly?
  • Is the electricity coming through?
  • (check this by possibly plugging in a small appliance such as a hand mixer or hair dryer etc.).
  • Is the appliance switched on?

Warning!

  • In the event of a fault or a power failure, the insulation of the appliance’s walls provides 11 hours of storage time for the frozen foods after the beginning of such failures.
  • Considerably more time is granted to specially insulated appliances. Ask your dealer what is relevant: “Storage time in an emergency“.
  • If it takes longer to eliminate a problem, the frozen food in the appliance begins to defrost. Therefore, take prompt action to eliminate the problem and, if necessary, move the frozen food to another freezer.
  • b) Your appliance is not cooling sufficiently.
  • The freezing process is taking too long.
  • The compressor is running too often.

Please check:

  • Did you make sure that the fridge/freezer was left to stand for at least 2 hours before switching it on? (To stabilise the circulation of the refrigerating fluid) see: “starting up“.
  • If not; unplug your appliance and lift it to one side, with the door closed, for a short while, i.e. tilt it and then place it back down on its feet again. After 2 hours plug it, back in.
  • Do not open the door again for about 12 hours (i.e. until the red light – if provided – has gone off).
  • The door does not close tightly and is not sealing properly.
  • Test: place a sheet of paper between the seal and the casing and close the door. It should be difficult to pull out the sheet of paper on all sides.
  • If the paper slides out easily on one or more sides, call your nearest service department.
  • Heavy ice formation on the inside walls of the freezer compartment (see:“ cleaning and maintenance“).
  • The appliance is exposed to direct sunlight or is sited near a direct heat source (oven, radiator, etc.).
  • Protect the appliance against direct sunlight / check the distance from the heat source / place an insulation plate between the appliance and the source of heat (See “Choosing where to install your appliance“).
  • The freezer has been filled up with a quantity of fresh food, which does not comply with the freezing capacity indicated on the rating plate (XX kg /24h).
  • Is the ventilation working properly, the ventilation grille covered, or is the condenser on the outer rear wall full of dust?

c) Your appliance is excessively noisy.

Please check:

  • Is the cabinet standing level and steady, are any nearby objects or items of furniture being vibrated by the cabinet? Make sure everything at the rear is free, and carefully bend back any parts touching.
  • For further information see Chapter: 16 “Problem Shooting”

Warning

  • On no account should you undertake any technical interventions or attempts at repair on your appliance.

Energy Saving Advice

  • Do not install the appliance close to sources of heat, such as a cooker, dishwasher, or radiator.
  • Locate the appliance in a cool well-ventilated room and make sure that the air vents are clear.
  • Try to avoid keeping the doors open for a long time, as warm air will enter the cabinet and may cause a build-up of ice as well as affect energy consumption.
  • Ensure no obstructions are preventing the doors from closing properly.
  • Ensure that the door seals are clean and there are no tears or splits.
  • Keep the most perishable foods, (those with a short shelf life, such as cooked meats), in the coldest part of the fridge.
  • The Salad Crisper Box is the warmest part of your fridge and should be used for vegetables, salads fruits, etc.
  • Do not overload the appliance: the cooling air that circulates and keeps the appliance cold gets blocked, and pockets of warm air form.
  • Do not put hot food into the fridge or freezer – let it cool down first.
