OPERATION
FIRST TIME USE
Wait at least two hours, after the installation, before connecting the
appliance to the power supply. Connect the appliance to the power supply it
starts the operation automatically. The ideal storage temperatures for the
food are preset in the factory.
After turning the appliance on, you must wait for 4-6 hours for the correct
storage temperature to be reached for a normally filled appliance. If the
audible signal sounds, it means that the temperature alarm has intervened:
press the button to switch off the acoustic alarms.
REFRIGERATOR COMPARTMENT AND FOOD STORAGE
The refrigerator compartment allows for the storage of fresh food and drink.
The refrigerator compartment defrosts completely automatically. The occasional
presence of drops of water on the internal back wall of the compartment is a
sign of the automatic defrosting phase. The defrosting water is channelled
into a drain and then collected in a container, where it evaporates.
Note: the ambient temperature, how often the doors are opened and the position
of the appliance may affect the internal temperatures in the two compartments.
Set the temperatures depending on these factors. In very humid conditions,
condensation may form in the refrigerator compartment, especially on the glass
shelves. In this case, it is recommended that you close containers with
liquids in (e.g. a pot of stock), wrap up food with a high water content (e.g.
vegetables) and turn on the fan, if there is one. All of the drawers, door
shelves and shelves can be removed.
LIGHT SYSTEM
This product contains a light source of energy efficiency class G
HOW TO STORE FRESH FOOD AND BEVERAGES
Foods which give off a large amount ethylene gas (apples, apricots, pears,
peaches, avocado, figs, prunes, blueberries, mellons, beans) 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. Do not store food too
close together to enable sufficient air circulation. Use recyclable plastic,
metal, aluminum and glass containers and cling film to wrap foods.
If you have a little quantity of food to store in the refrigerator, we
recommend to use the shelves above the crisper for fruits and vegetables since
this is the coolest area of the compartment. Always use closed containers for
liquids and for food that may give off or be tainted by odor or flavor
transfer or cover them. To avoid bottles falling over, you can use the bottle
holder (available on selected models).
FREEZER COMPARTMENT
- It is advisable to set the temperature colder or turn on the Fast Freeze/ Fast Cool* at least four hours before removing the food from the freezer compartment, to prolong the preservation of the food during the defrosting phase.
- To defrost, unplug the appliance and remove the drawers. Leave the door open to allow the frost to melt. To prevent the water from escaping during the defrost, it is advised that you place an absorbent cloth on the bottom of the freezer compartment and wring it out regularly.
- Clean the inside of the freezer compartment and dry it carefully.
- Turn the appliance back on and put the food back inside. To remove the frost on the STOP FROST* accessory, follow the CLEANING.
**ICE CUBES***
Fill 2/3 of the ice tray with water and put it back in the freezer
compartment. Do not, under any circumstances, use sharp or pointed objects to
remove the ice.
The quantity of fresh food that can be frozen in a specific time period is
indicated on the rating plate.
Load limits are determined by baskets, flaps, drawers, shelves etc. Make sure
that these components can still close easily after loading.
FUNCTIONAL SOUNDS
- A buzz generated by the compressor is normal while the product is working.
- Gurgling and crackles are generated by the passage of the refrigerant gas inside the cooling circuit, therefore these are normal noises.
- It’s possibile to “hear” creaks when the compressor is active and inactive: itis a normal sound of the product’s structure.
- Check that the balconies on the inside of the refrigerator door, the shelves and the drawers in the refrigerator compartment are attached and positioned properly, to avoid possible vibrations.
- Don’t place glass containers (bottles, jars, etc.) in direct contact with each other, to avoid vibrations.
- This device is equipped with a compressor that operates at an optimum speed to minimize energy consumption. So it may happen that in certain situations (in summer or if large quantities of food are introduced) that the compressor increases the speed and therefore it is more noisy than usual.
RECOMMENDATION IN CASE OF NO USE OF THE APPLIANCE
- In the event of non-use of the applicance
- Disconnect the appliance from the power supply, empty it, defrost it (if necessary) and clean it.
- Keep the doors slightly ajar to let air circulate inside the compartments. By doing this, you avoid the development of mould and bad odours.
- In the event of an interruption to the power supply
- Keep the doors closed so the food stays cold for as long as possible. Do not re-freeze food that has partially defrosted. If there is a prolonged power cut, the black out alarm may also activate (in products with electronics).
CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
- Before any cleaning or maintenance operation, unplug the appliance from the mains or disconnect the electrical power supply.
- Never use abrasives. Never clean refrigerator parts with flammable fluids.
- Do not use steam cleaners.
- The buttons and control panel display must not be cleaned with alcohol or alcohol-derived substances, but with a dry cloth.
Clean the appliance occasionally with a cloth and a solution of warm water and neutral cleaning agents specifically for cleaning the inside of the refrigerator.
REFRIGERATOR LIGHT
The light system inside the refrigerator compartment uses LEDs light, allowing
a better lighting than traditional light bulbs as well as a very low energy
consumption. Contact the Technical Assistance Service if you need a
replacement.
Important: The refrigerator compartment light switches on when the
refrigerator door is opened.
SHELVES
All of the drawers, door shelves and shelves can be removed.

DOOR REVERSIBILITY
Note: The direction of door opening can be changed. If this operation is not
performed by After-sales Service it is not covered by the warranty. Follow
instruction in Installation chapter.
