Use

• The domestic refrigerators and freezers are

designed to be used specifically for the storage

of edible foodstuffs only.

• Best performance is obtained with ambient

temperature between +18°C and +43°C (class

T); +18°C and +38°C (class ST); +16°C and

+32°C (class N); +10°C and +32°C (class SN).

The class of your appliance is shown on its rating

plate.

Warning: when the ambient temperature is not

included within the range indicated for the class

of this appliance, the following instructions must

be observed: when the ambient temperature

drops below the minimum level, the storage

temperature in the freezer compartment cannot

be guaranteed; therefore it is advisable to use

the food stored as soon as possible.

• Frozen food must not be re-frozen once it has

been thawed out.

• Manufacturers’ storage recommendations should

be strictly adhered to. Refer to relevant

instructions.

• The inner lining of the appliance consists of

channels through which the refrigerant passes. If

these should be punctured this would damage the

appliance beyond repair and cause food loss. DO

NOT USE SHARP INSTRUMENTS to scrape off

frost or ice. Frost may be removed by using a

plastic scraper. Under no circumstances should

solid ice be forced off the liner. Solid ice should be

allowed to thaw when defrosting the appliance.

• Do not place carbonated or fizzy drinks in the

freezer as it creates pressure on the container,

which may cause it to explode, resulting in

damage to the appliance. Do not use a

mechanical device or any artificial means to

speed up the thawing process other than those

recommended by the manufacturer. Never use

metal objects for cleaning your appliance as it

may get damaged.

Installation

• During normal operation, the condenser and

compressor at the back of the appliance heat up

considerably. For safety reasons, minimum

ventilation must be as shown in the instructions.

Attention: keep ventilation openings clear of

obstruction.

• Care must be taken to ensure that the appliance

does not stand on the electrical supply cable.

Important: if the supply cord is damaged, it must

be replaced by a special cord or assembly availa-

ble from the manufacturer or its service agent.

• If the appliance is transported horizontally, it is

possible that the oil contained in the compressor

flows in the refrigerant circuit. It is advisable to

wait at least two hours before connecting the

appliance to allow the oil to flow back in the

compressor.

• There are working parts in this product which

heat up. Always ensure that there is adequate

ventilation as a failure to do this will result in

component failure and possible food loss. See

installation instructions.

• Parts which heat up should not be exposed.

Wherever possible the back of the product

should be against a wall.

Environment Protection

This appliance does not contain gasses which

could damage the ozone layer, in either its

refrigerant circuit or insulation materials. The

appliance shall not be discarded together with

the urban refuse and rubbish. Avoid damaging

the cooling unit, especially at the rear near the

Cleaning the interior

Before using the appliance for the first time, wash

the interior and all internal accessories with luke-

warm water and some neutral soap so as to remove

the typical smell of a brand-new product, then dry

thoroughly.

Do not use detergents or abrasive

powders, as these will damage the finish.

Temperature regulation

The temperature is automatically regulated and can

be increased to achieve a higher temperature

(warmer) by rotating the thermostat knob toward

lower settings or reduced (colder) rotating the knob

towards higher settings.

However, the exact setting should be chosen

keeping in mind that the temperature inside the

refrigerator depends on:

• room temperature;

• how often the door is opened;

• the quantity of food stored;

• location of appliance.

A medium setting is generally the most suitable.

USE

Operation

Insert the plug into the wall socket.

Turn the thermostat knob ,clockwise, beyond the “O”

(STOP) position.

To stop operation, simply turn the thermostat knob to

position “O”.

Important

If the ambient temperature is high or the

appliance is fully loaded, and the appliance is

set to the lowest temperatures, it may run

continuously causing frost to form on the rear

wall. In this case the dial must be set to a higher

temperature to allow automatic defrosting and

therefore reduced energy consumption.

Fresh food refrigeration

To obtain the best performance:

• do not store warm food or evaporating liquids in

the refrigerator;

• do cover or wrap the food, particularly if it has a

strong flavour.

• Position food so that air can circulate freely round

it.

Freezing fresh food

The 4-star compartment is suitable for

long term storage of commercially frozen food, and

for freezing fresh food.

To freeze fresh foods It is not necessary to change

the setting of the thermostatknob. However, for a

quicker freezing operation, turn the thermostat knob

to the coldest setting; but remeber that, in this

condition, the refrigerator compartment temperature

might drop below 0°C. If this occurs reset thermostat

knob to a warmer setting.

Place the food to be frozen on the upper

compartment.

Storage of frozen food

When first starting-up or after a period out of use,

before putting the products in the compartment let

the appliance run at least two hours on the coldest

setting, then turn the thermostat knob to the normal

operating position.

Important

In the event of accidental defrosting, for example

due to a power failure, if the power has been off

for longer that the value shown in the technical

characteristics chart under “rising time”, the

defrosted food must be consumed quickly or

cooked immediately and then refrozen (after

cooling).

Ice-cube production

This appliance is equipped with one or more trays

for the production of ice-cubes. Fill these trays with

water, then put them in the freezer compartment.

Do not use metallic instruments to remove the

trays from the freezer.

Thawing

Deep-frozen or frozen food, prior to being used, can

be thawed in the refrigerator compartment or at

room temperature, depending on the time available

for this operation.

Small pieces may even be cooked still frozen,

directly from the freezer: in this case, cooking will

take longer.
