up just 1,25 inches of space inside the refrigerator.
MULTI-USE box: fixed at the
top of the compartment, was
designed to keep various foods
fresher for longer periods of
time (for example eggs, butter
or food in small containers); it
prevents food odors from
permeating into the refrigerator.
BOTTLE AREA: this special
accessory is fixed at the top of
the compartment and was
designed to hold up to 3 bottles
of wine or water, without taking
up extra space. Bottles may be
placed in the BOTTLE AREA
when it is open, yet when the
compartment is closed it takes
VEGETABLE BINS: two
practical vegetable bins are
located in the top compartment.
These are easy to remove and
may be taken out to be placed
on the worktop or to be washed.
PROFESSIONAL stainless steel
containers: two professional
containers (with covers) are
located in the lower
compartment. They were
designed to store meat,
cheeses or fish.
Starting the appliance
! Before starting the appliance, follow the
installation instructions (
! Before connecting the appliance, clean the
compartments and accessories well with lukewarm
water and baking soda.
1. Insert the plug into the outlet and ensure that the
internal light illuminates.
2. Turn the TEMPERATURE ADJUSTMENT knob to an
average value. After a few hours you will be able to
put food in the refrigerator.
see Installation
).
Setting the temperature
The temperature inside the refrigerator compartment
automatically adjusts itself according to the position of
the thermostat knob.
1 = warmest MAX = coldest
We recommend, however, a medium position.
The “cooling section” of the refrigerator is located
inside the back wall of the compartment, providing
increased space and improved aesthetics. The back
wall will be covered in frost or water droplets depending
on whether the compressor is operating or paused. This
is not a cause for concern; the refrigerator is
functioning normally.
If the TEMPERATURE ADJUSTMENT knob has been set
to a high value, with large quantities of food inside and
a high ambient temperature outside the refrigerator, the
appliance could operate continuously, resulting in high
frost formation and high energy consumption: this may
be counteracted by turning the knob towards lower
temperature values (defrosting will occur automatically).
Using the refrigerator to its full potential
BOTTLE SHELF compartment:
to keep two bottles in a stable
position, use the special
stainless steel grilles in the
lower compartment.

• Use the TEMPERATURE ADJUSTMENT knob to
adjust the temperature (
• Place only cold or lukewarm foods in the
compartment, not hot foods (
).
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.
see Description
see Precautions and
www.aristonappliances.us
).
Maintenance and care
Switching the appliance off
During cleaning and maintenance it is necessary to
disconnect the appliance from the electricity supply:
It is not sufficient to set the temperature adjustment
knobs on
electrical contact.
(appliance off) since it will not eliminate all
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 baking 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.
Avoiding mould and unpleasant odors
Defrosting the appliance
EN
The refrigerator has an automatic defrosting function:
water is ducted to the back of the appliance by a
special discharge outlet (see diagram) where the heat
produced by the
compressor causes it to
evaporate. It is not,
therefore, necessary to
defrost the refrigerator
manually. It is, however,
necessary to clean the
discharge hole regularly
so that the water can flow
out easily.
Replacing the light bulb*
To replace the light bulb in the refrigerator
compartment, pull out the plug from the electrical
outlet. Follow the instructions below.
• The appliance is manufactured with hygienic
materials which are odor free. In order to maintain an
odor 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.
Access the light bulb by
removing the cover as
indicated in the diagram.
Replace it with a similar
1
light bulb within the
power range indicated on
the cover (10 W).

Precautions and tips
! The appliance was designed and manufactured in
EN
compliance with international safety standards. The
following warnings are provided for safety reasons and
must be read carefully.
DANGER: Risk of child entrapment. Before you throw
away your old refrigertor or freezer:
- Take off the doors.
- Leave the shelves in place so that children may not
easily climb inside.
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 food products by
adults only and according to the instructions in this
manual.
• 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 burns.
• When unplugging the appliance always pull the plug
from the mains outlet, 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
(appliance off) since it will not eliminate all
on
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 devices or tools other than the special
scraper provided inside the compartments.
• 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.
Disposal
• Observe local environmental standards when
disposing packaging material for recycling
purposes.
• Observe existing legislation when disposing of the
old appliance.
Refrigerants such as isobutane and cyclopentane
are located in the cooling zones and the isolation
system of the refrigerator and freezer. Ensure that the
pipes are not damaged. Leakage of these
refrigerants is harmful to the environment.
• Make the appliance unusable by cutting off the cable
and remove any door catches before disposal.
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 (
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
see Maintenance
).
