• This appliance is heavy. Care should be taken
when moving it
• Ice lollies can cause frost burns if consumed
straight from the appliance.
• Take utmost care when handling your
appliance so as not to cause any damages to
the cooling unit with consequent possible
fluid leakages.
• The appliance must not be located close to
radiators or gas cookers.
• Avoid prolonged exposure of the appliance to
direct sunlight.
• There must be adequate ventilation round the
back of the appliance and any damage to the
refrigerant circuit must be avoided.
• For freezers only (except built-in models): an
ideal location is the cellar or basement.
• Do not use other electrical appliances (such
as ice cream makers) inside of refrigerating
appliances.
Service/Repair
• Any electrical work required to install this
appliance should be carried out by a qualified
electrician or competent person
• This product should be serviced by an authorized
Service Centre, and only genuine spare parts
should be used.
• Under no circumstances should you attempt to
repair the appliance yourself. Repairs carried out
by inexperienced persons may cause injury or
more serious malfunctioning. Refer to your local
Service Centre, and always insist on genuine
spare parts.
• This appliance contains hydrocarbons in its
cooling unit; maintenance and recharging must
therefore only be carried out by authorized
technicians.
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 the
scraper provided. 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 available 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.

Positioning the door shelves
To permit storage of food packages of various sizes,
the door shelves can be placed at different heights.

ON/OFF (B). The fridge is switched on.
The fridge is pre-set to run at +5°C. This
temperature will be reached in a few hours.
As soon as the appliance is switched on the
temperature indicator (D) shows the current
temperaure inside the fridge.
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.
Movable shelves
The walls of the refrigerator are equipped with a
series of runners so that the shelves can be
positioned as desired.
For better use of space, the front half-shelves can lie
over the rear ones.

Air Filter
Your appliance is equipped with a charcoal filter in
the rear wall of the fridge compartment.
The filter purifies the air from unwanted odours in the
fridge and longfresh compartment meaning that the
storage quality will be further improved.
Note: Always keep the air ventilation flap closed.
The charcoal filter is a consumable accessory and as
such is not covered by the guarantee.
Installation of the charcoal filter
On delivery the charcoal filter is placed in a plastic
bag to secure the length of life of the charcoal filter.
The filter should be placed behind the flap before the
appliance is turned on.
• Pull the cover outward (1).
• The charcoal filter is then mounted in the slot found
in the back of the cover (2).
• Close the flap.
Important!
During operation, always keep the air
ventilation flap closed.
The filter should be handled carefully so
fragments do not loosen from the surface.
Changing the charcoal filter
To maintain the best performance the carbon filter
should be changed every year.
New charcoal filters can be purchased from your
local dealer.
• The filter is placed behind the cover and can be
reached by pulling the cover outward (1).
• The charcoal filter is then pulled out of its slot.
• The new charcoal filter is placed in the existing
slot (2). Close the flap.
“Natura fresh” 0°C compartment
• In the “Natura fresh” 0°C compartment the
temperature is controlled automatically. It stays
constantly at about 0°C, no adjustment is
necessary.
• The constant storage temperature of about 0°C
and the relative humidity of between 45 and 90 %
provide optimal conditions for the various kinds of
food.
• You can therefore store a variety of fresh food in
the “Natura fresh” 0°C compartment, where it will
last up to 3 times longer with better quality
compared to normal refrigerator compartments.
This allows you to stock more fresh food. Taste,
degree of freshness, quality and nutritional values
(vitamins and minerals) are well preserved. Loss of
weight in vegetables and fruit diminishes. Food
yields a higher degree of nutritional value.
• The “Natura fresh” 0°C compartment is also
suitable for defrosting food. In this case the thawed
food can be stored up to two days in the “Natura
fresh” 0°C compartment.
• The compartment has stops to prevent the drawers
from falling out when fully extended.
To remove the drawers (e.g. for cleaning
purposes), pull them out as far as the stops, lift and
extract.
Humidity control
• Both drawers can be used according to the desired
storage conditions independently of each other
with lower or higher humidity.
Regulation for each drawer is separate and is
controlled using the slide valve at the front of the
drawer.
