appliance are thoroughly familiar with its operation and safety features. Save these in-
structions and make sure that they remain with the appliance if it is moved or sold, so that
everyone using it through its life will be properly informed on appliance use and safety.
For the safety of life and property keep the precautions of these user's instructions as the
manufacturer is not responsible for damages caused by omission.
Children and vulnerable people safety
• This appliance is not intended for use by persons (including children) with reduced
physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge, unless they
have been given supervision or instruction concerning use of the appliance by a person
responsible for their safety.
Children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play with the appliance.
• Keep all packaging well away from children. There is risk of suffocation.
• If you are discarding the appliance pull the plug out of the socket, cut the connection
cable (as close to the appliance as you can) and remove the door to prevent playing
children to suffer electric shock or to close themselves into it.
• If this appliance featuring magnetic door seals is to replace an older appliance having a
spring lock (latch) on the door or lid, be sure to make that spring lock unusable before
you discard the old appliance. This will prevent it from becoming a death trap for a child.
General safety
CAUTION!
Keep ventilation openings clear of obstruction.
• The appliance is intended for keeping foodstuff and/or beverages in a normal household
as explained in this instruction booklet.
• Do not use a mechanical device or any artificial means to speed up the thawing process.
• Do not use other electrical appliances (such as ice cream makers) inside of refrigerating
appliances, unless they are approved for this purpose by the manufacturer.
• Do not damage the refrigerant circuit.
• The refrigerant isobutane (R600a) is contained within the refrigerant circuit of the ap-
pliance, a natural gas with a high level of environmental compatibility, which is never-
theless flammable.
During transportation and installation of the appliance, be certain that none of the
components of the refrigerant circuit become damaged.
If the refrigerant circuit should become damaged:
– avoid open flames and sources of ignition
– thoroughly ventilate the room in which the appliance is situated
• It is dangerous to alter the specifications or modify this product in any way. Any damage
to the cord may cause a short-circuit, fire and/or electric shock.
WARNING!
Any electrical component (power cord, plug, compressor) must be replaced by a certified
service agent or qualified service personnel.
1. Power cord must not be lengthened.
2. Make sure that the power plug is not squashed or damaged by the back of the
appliance. A squashed or damaged power plug may overheat and cause a fire.

Temperature indicators
The temperature indicators show several information:
• During normal operation, the temperature currently present in the fridge (ACTUAL tem-
perature) is displayed.
• In the freezer the warmest temperature is displayed (ACTUAL temperature). When fully
filled, the warmest zone is normally located at the top in the front area of the freezer.
Depending upon how the section is filled, the temperatures are lower in other areas of
the freezer.
• When the temperature is being adjusted a flashing display indicates the fridge temper-
ature currently set (DESIRED temperature).
When changing the temperature setting wait about 24 hours until the temperature display
has stabilised.
If there is a fault in the appliance the temperature indicator shows:
• a square or a letter in the temperature indicator of the fridge for a fault in the fridge
• a square or a letter in the temperature indicator of the freezer for a fault in the freezer.
Temperature regulation
To operate the appliance, proceed as follows:
1. Set the required temperature by pressing the corresponding temperature regulator. The
temperature indicator will immediately show the changed setting (DESIRED tempera-
ture) and the temperature indicator flashes.
2. Each time the temperature regulator is pressed the DESIRED temperature is adjusted
by 1 °C. The DESIRED temperature must be reached within 24 hours.
3. Once the required temperature has been set, after a short period (approx. 5 sec.) the
temperature indicator will show again the current ACTUAL temperature inside the cor-
responding compartment. The temperature indicator will change from flashing to con-
tinuous illumination.
For a correct storage of the food the following temperatures should be set:
• +5 °C in the fridge
• -18 °C in the freezer.
When the setting is changed, the compressor does not start immediately if automatic
defrosting is currently taking place. As the storage temperature within the fridge is reached
quickly you can store food immediately after switching on.

First use
Cleaning the interior
Before using the appliance for the first time, wash the interior and all internal accessories
with lukewarm 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.
Daily use
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 2 hours on the higher settings.
In the event of accidental defrosting, for example due to a power failure, if the power has
been off for longer than the value shown in the technical characteristics chart under "rising
time", the defrosted food must be consumed quickly or cooked immediately and then re-
frozen (after cooling).
Thawing
Deep-frozen or frozen food, prior to being used, can be thawed in the refrigerator com-
partment 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.
Movable shelves
The walls of the refrigerator are equipped with a
series of runners so that the shelves can be posi-
tioned as desired.
