Start-up and use

Starting the appliance

!Before starting the appliance, follow the installation instructions (see Installation).

!Before connecting the appliance, clean the compartments and accessories well with lukewarm water and bicarbonate.

!The appliance comes with a motor protection control system which makes the compressor start approximately 8 minutes after being switched on. The compressor also starts each time the power supply is cut off whether voluntarily or involuntarily (blackout).

1.Set the FREEZER OPERATION knob on .

2.Insert the plug into the socket and ensure that the green POWER indicator light illuminates.

3.Turn the FREEZER OPERATION knob to an average value and press the SUPER FREEZE button (rapid freezing): the SUPER FREEZE indicator light will illuminate. Once the refrigerator has reached the optimal temperature, the indicator light goes out and you can begin food storage.

4.Turn the REFRIGERATOR OPERATION knob to an average value. After a few hours you will be able to put food in the refrigerator.

Chiller system

No Frost

The No Frost system circulates cold air continuously to collect humidity and prevent

ice and frost formation. The system maintains

an optimal humidity level in the

compartment, preserving the original

quality of the food, preventing the food from sticking together and making defrosting a thing of the past. Do not block the aeration cells by placing food or containers in direct contact with the refrigerating back panel. Close bottles and wrap food tightly.

Using the refrigerator to its full

GB

potential

Use the REFRIGERATOR OPERATION knob to adjust the temperature (see Description).

Press the SUPER COOL button (rapid cooling) to lower the temperature quickly. For example, when you place a large number of new food items inside a fridge the internal temperature will rise slightly. The function quickly cools the groceries by temporarily reducing the temperature until it reaches the ideal level.

Place only cold or lukewarm foods in the compartment, not hot foods (see Precautions and tips).

Remember that cooked foods do not last longer than raw foods.

Do not store liquids in open containers. They will increase humidity in the refrigerator and cause condensation to form.

SHELVES: with or without grill. Due to the special guides the shelves are removable and the height is adjustable, allowing easy storage of large containers and food.

FRUIT and VEGETABLE bin

The salad crispers fitted inside the fridge have been specially designed for the purpose of keeping fruit and vegetables fresh and crisp. Open the humidity regulator (position B) if you want to store food in a less humid environment, or close it (position A) to store food in a more humid environment.

Using the freezer to its full potential

GB

Use the FREEZER OPERATION knob to adjust the temperature (see Description).

Do not re-freeze food that is defrosting or that has already been defrosted. These foods must be cooked and eaten (within 24 hours).

Fresh food that needs to be frozen must not come into contact with food that has already been defrosted.

Do not place glass bottles which contain liquids, and which are corked or hermetically sealed in the freezer because they could break.

The maximum quantity of food that may be frozen daily is indicated on the plate containing the technical properties located on the bottom left side of the refrigerator compartment (for example: Kg/24h: 4).

To freeze (if the freezer is already operating): press the rapid freezing SUPER FREEZE button

(corresponding yellow indicator light illuminates), insert the food and close the door. The function is disabled automatically after 24 hours or when optimal temperatures have been reached (indicator light goes out);

!to avoid blocking the air circulation inside the freezer compartment, it is advisable not to obstruct the ventilation holes with food or containers.

!Do not open the door during freezing.

!If there is a power cut or malfunction, do not open the freezer door. This will help maintain the temperature inside the freezer, ensuring that foods are conserved for at least 9 -14 hours.

ICE DEVICE

After pouring water in the special ice cups, place them in their places in the ice device. After about 2 hours, the ice cubes will be ready. In order to get the ice cubes, it will be sufficient to turn the two buttons to the right. The ice cubes will fall in to the tray below, ready to be used.

Maintenance and care

Switching the appliance off

During cleaning and maintenance it is necessary to disconnect the appliance from the electricity supply:

1.set the FREEZER OPERATION knob on

2.pull the plug out of the socket

! If this procedure is not followed, the alarm may sound. This alarm does not indicate a malfunction. To restore normal operation, it is sufficient to set the FREEZER OPERATION knob on the desired value. To disconnect the appliance, follow point 1 and 2.

Holiday function

GB

To minimise energy usage when on holiday, it is not necessary to switch the appliance off. The appliance has a function which allows it to maintain the temperature of the refrigerator compartment at approximately 15°C (which can also be used to conserve make-up and beauty products). The freezer temperature must be set to the minimum value in order to preserve the food.

To enable the function: set the REFRIGERATOR

OPERATION knob on .

A double acoustic signal informs you when it has been enabled. A single acoustic signal informs you when it has been disabled.

Cleaning the appliance

The external and internal parts, as well as the rubber seals may be cleaned using a sponge that has been soaked in lukewarm water and bicarbonate of soda or neutral soap. Do not use solvents, abrasive products, bleach or ammonia.

The removable accessories may be soaked in warm water and soap or dishwashing liquid. Rinse and dry them carefully.

The back of the appliance may collect dust which can be removed by delicately using the hose of a vacuum cleaner set on medium power. The appliance must be switched off and the plug must be pulled out before cleaning the appliance.

During the cleaning of the slide rails for the drawers in the freezer compartment, it may happen that the automatic drawer closure mechanism is deactivated. To reactivate it, simply close the drawer a little more forcefully than is usually necessary.

Avoiding mould and unpleasant odours

The appliance is manufactured with hygienic materials which are odour free. In order to maintain an odour free refrigerator and to prevent the formation of stains, food must always be covered or sealed properly.

If you want to switch the appliance off for an extended period of time, clean the inside and leave the doors open.

Optimization Energy Saving function

If you are going on holiday but would like the operating temperature performance of the product to remain unchanged, you can use the Optimization Energy Saving function. This function maximises the energy saved. It is activated by setting the knobs to “I CARE”, then pressing and holding the Super Freeze button for at least 9 seconds; the Super Freeze indicator light will begin to flash, signalling the activation of this function.

The Optimization Energy Saving function may also be deactivated by pressing the Super Freeze button again. The corresponding indicator light will stop flashing, thereby signalling that the original operating conditions have been restored.

In humid environments, when the Optimization Energy Saving function is activated, slight condensation may form on the door of the appliance; normal operating conditions are restored when the function is deactivated.

Precautions and tips

! The appliance was designed and manufactured in GB compliance with international safety standards. The

following warnings are provided for safety reasons and must be read carefully.

This appliance complies with the following

Community Directives:

-73/23/EEC of 19/02/73 (Low Voltage) and subsequent amendments;

-89/336/EEC of 03.05.89 (Electromagnetic Compatibility) and subsequent amendments;

-2002/96/CE..

General safety

The appliance was designed for domestic use inside the home and is not intended for commercial or industrial use.

The appliance must be used to store and freeze food products by adults only and according to the instructions in this manual.

The appliance must not be installed outdoors, even in covered areas. It is extremely dangerous to leave the appliance exposed to rain and storms.

Do not touch the appliance with bare feet or with wet or moist hands and feet.

Do not touch the internal cooling elements: this could cause skin abrasions or frost/freezer burns.

When unplugging the appliance always pull the plug from the mains socket, do not pull on the cable.

Before cleaning and maintenance, always switch off the appliance and disconnect it from the electrical supply. It is not sufficient to set the temperature adjustment knobs on OFF (appliance off) to eliminate all electrical contact.

In the case of a malfunction, under no circumstances should you attempt to repair the appliance yourself. Repairs carried out by inexperienced persons may cause injury or further malfunctioning of the appliance.

Do not use utensils other than the scraper provided, or electrical equipment which is not of the type specified by the manufacturer, inside the frozen food storage compartments.

Do not put ice cubes taken directly from the freezer into your mouth.

Do not allow children to tamper with the controls or play with the appliance. Under no circumstance should they be allowed to sit on the bins or to hang from the door.

Keep packaging material out of the reach of children! It can become a choking or suffocation hazard.

When closing the refrigerator doors, pay attention to the position of the upright (see figure).

Make sure that excessive volumes

of food are not placed in the upper part of the freezer compartment, in the space reserved for the ice tray (where present).

Disposal

Observe local environmental standards when disposing packaging material for recycling purposes.

The European Directive 2002/96/EC on Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE), requires that old household electrical appliances must not be disposed of in the normal unsorted municipal waste stream. Old appliances must be collected separately in order to optimise the recovery and recycling of the materials they contain and reduce the impact on human health and the environment. The crossed out “wheeled bin” symbol on the product reminds you of your obligation, that when you dispose of the appliance it must be separately collected. Consumers should contact their local authority or retailer for information concerning the correct disposal of their old appliance.

Respecting and conserving the environment

Install the appliance in a fresh and well-ventilated room. Ensure that it is protected from direct sunlight and do not place it near heat sources.

Try to avoid keeping the door open for long periods or opening the door too frequently in order to conserve energy.

Do not fill the appliance with too much food:

cold air must circulate freely for food to be preserved properly. If circulation is impeded, the compressor will work continuously.

Do not place hot food directly into the refrigerator. The internal temperature will increase and force the compressor to work harder and will consume more energy.

Defrost the appliance if ice forms (see Maintenance). A thick layer of ice makes cold transference to food products more difficult and results in increased energy consumption.

Regularly check the door seals and wipe clean to ensure they are free of debris and to prevent cold air from escaping (see Maintenance).

Thanks to its independent freezer door and drawer opening system, this product offers a 50% energy saving in comparison with a normal 2-door combined refrigerator/freezer unit.

Mise en marche et utilisation

Mise en service de l’appareil

!Avant de mettre l’appareil en service, suivez bien les instructions sur l’installation (voir Installation).

!Avant de brancher votre appareil, nettoyez bien les compartiments et les accessoires à l’eau tiède additionnée de bicarbonate.

!Cet appareil est équipé d’un système protège-moteur qui ne fait démarrer le compresseur que 8 minutes après son branchement. C’est ce qui se passera aussi après toute coupure de courant, volontaire ou involontaire (panne d’électricité.

1. Amenez le bouton FONCTIONNEMENT

CONGELATEUR sur .

2.Branchez la fiche dans la prise et contrôlez que le voyant vert ALIMENTATION ELECTRIQUE s’allume.

3.Amenez le bouton FONCTIONNEMENT CONGELATEUR sur une valeur intermédiaire et appuyez sur la touche SUPER FREEZE (congélation rapide) : le voyant jaune SUPER FREEZE s’allumera. Il ne s’éteindra que quand le congélateur aura atteint sa température optimale : vous pourrez alors introduire les aliments.

Système de refroidissement

No Frost

Le No Frost gère un flux continu d’air froid qui absorbe l’humidité et empêche la formation de

glace et de givre : il maintient un niveau

d’humidité adéquat à l’intérieur du compartiment réfrigérateur et, grâce à

l’absence de givre, il préserve les qualités originaires des aliments; dans le compartiment congélateur il évite la formation de glace, il n’y a par conséquent plus besoin de dégivrer et les aliments ne collent plus entre eux. Ne placez pas d’aliments ou de récipients contre la paroi refroidissante arrière pour ne pas boucher les trous d’aération et éviter une formation rapide d’eau condensée. Fermez bien les bouteilles et emballez les aliments.

réfrigérateur

F

Pour régler la température, utilisez le bouton FONCTIONNEMENT REFRIGERATEUR (voir Description).

Appuyez sur la touche SUPER COOL (refroidissement rapide) pour faire baisser la température rapidement, par exemple quand vous remplissez le compartiment après avoir fait de grosses provisions. Cette fonction se désactive automatiquement une fois le temps écoulé.

N’introduisez que des aliments froids ou à peine tièdes, jamais chauds (voir Précautions et conseils).

Les aliments cuits contrairement à ce que l’on croit ne se conservent pas plus longuement que les aliments crus.

N’introduisez pas de récipients non fermés contenant des liquides: ces derniers entraîneraient une augmentation de l’humidité et la formation d’eau condensée.

CLAYETTES: pleines ou grillagées. Elles sont amovibles et réglables en hauteur grâce à des glissières spéciales, pour le rangement de récipients ou d’aliments de grande dimension.

Bac FRUITS et LEGUMES

Les tiroirs à fruits et légumes qui équipent le réfrigérateur sont spécialement conçus pour garder vos fruits et légumes frais et savoureux. Ouvrez le régulateur d’humidité (position B) si vous désirez conserver vos aliments dans un environnement moins humide ou bien fermez-le (position A) pour les conserver dans un environnement plus humide.

Pour régler la température, utilisez le bouton FONCTIONNEMENT CONGELATEUR (voir Description).

Ne recongelez pas des aliments décongelés ou en cours de décongélation; il faut les faire cuire et les consommer (dans les 24 heures).

Les aliments frais à congeler ne doivent pas être placés au contact d’aliments déjà congelés.

Ne stockez pas dans votre congélateur des bouteilles en verre contenant des liquides, bouchées ou fermées hermétiquement, elles pourraient se briser.

La quantité journalière maximale d’aliments pouvant être congelée est indiquée sur l’étiquette des caractéristiques, placée dans le compartiment réfrigérateur en bas à gauche (exemple : 4 Kg/24h).

Pour congeler (si le congélateur est déjà en service):

appuyez sur la touche SUPER FREEZE (congélation rapide) (allumage du voyant jaune correspondant), introduisez les aliments et fermez la porte. Cette fonction se désactive automatiquement au bout de 24 heures ou dès que les températures optimales sont atteintes (voyant éteint);

!Pour éviter d’empêcher la circulation de l’air à l’intérieur du congelateur, nous recommandons de ne pas boucher avec des aliments ou des récipients les trous d’aération

!Evitez d’ouvrir la porte pendant la phase de congélation.

!En cas de coupure de courant ou de panne, n’ouvrez pas la porte du congélateur : les produits surgelés et congelés se conserveront ainsi sans problème pendant 9 - 14 heures environ.

ICEDEVICE

Sortez les récipients spéciaux de glace, mettez-y de l’eau et placez-les dans leur location dans Icedevice. Approximativement 2 heures après, les cubes de glace seront prêts. Pour prends les glaçons, il suffira de tourner à droite les deux boutons; les glaçons tomberont de façon prête dans le récipient d’endessous (voir figure).
