When you switch off the appliance remember to turn off the fan by pressing the button
(A). The green light (B) comes off.
The drawer is suitable for storing fruit and vegetables.
There is a separator inside the drawer that can be placed in different positions to allow for the subdivision best suited to personal needs.
There is a grille (if foreseen) on the bottom of the drawer to separate the fruit and
vegetables from any humidity that may form on the bottom surface.
All parts inside the drawer can be removed for cleaning purposes
For proper storage of food the refrigerator is equipped with the temperature indicator. The symbol on the side wall of the appliance indicates the coldest area in the refrigerator.
If OK is displayed (A), put fresh food into area indicated by symbol, if not (B), adjust the temperature controller to a colder setting and wait 12 hours before checking the temperature indicator again.
AOK
BOK
After putting fresh food into the appliance or after opening the door repeatedly or for a long period, it is normal for the indicator not to show OK. Wait at least 12 hours before readjusting the temperature controller.
The glass shelf incorporates a device with slits (adjustable by means of a sliding lever), which makes it possible to regulate the humidity in the vegetable drawer(s).
7
When the ventilation slots are closed:
the natural moisture content of the food in the fruit and vegetable compartments is preserved for longer.
When the ventilation slots are opened:
more air circulation results in a lower air moisture content in the fruit and vegetable compartments.
The freezer compartment is suitable for freezing fresh food and storing frozen and deep-frozen food for a long time.
To freeze fresh food activate the FastFreeze function and place the food to be frozen in the freezer compartment.
The maximum amount of food that can be frozen in 24 hours is specified on the rating plate, a label located on the inside of the appliance.
The freezing process lasts 24 hours: during this period do not add other food to be frozen.
When the freezing process is completed, return to the required temperature (see "FastFreeze Function").
In this condition, the refrigerator compartment temperature might drop below 0°C. If this occurs reset the temperature regulator to a warmer setting.
8
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 with the FastFreeze function turned on.
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 data chart under "Rising time", the defrosted food must be consumed quickly or cooked immediately and then re-frozen (after cooling).
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.
The following sounds are normal during operation:
•A faint gurgling and bubbling sound from coils sound when refrigerant is pumped.
•A whirring and pulsating sound from the compressor when refrigerant is pumped.
•A sudden cracking noise from inside appliance caused by thermic dilatation (a natural and not dangerous physical phenomenon).
•A faint click noise from the temperature regulator when the compressor switches on or off.
•Do not open the door frequently or leave it open longer than absolutely necessary.
•If the ambient temperature is high and the Temperature Regulator is set to low temperature and the appliance is fully loaded, the compressor may run continuously, causing frost or ice on the evaporator. If this happens, set the Temperature Regulator toward warmer settings to allow automatic defrosting
and so a saving in electricity consumption.
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 around it
Useful hints:
•Meat (all types): wrap in a suitable packaging and place it on the glass shelf above the vegetable drawer. Store meat for at most 1-2 days.
•Cooked foods, cold dishes: cover and place on any shelf.
•Fruit and vegetables: clean thoroughly and place in a special drawer. Bananas, potatoes, onions and garlic must not be kept in the refrigerator if not packed.
•Butter and cheese: place in a special airtight container or wrap in an aluminium foil or a polythene bag to exclude as much air as possible.
•Bottles: close with a cap and place on the door bottle shelf, or (if available) on the bottle rack.
To help you make the most of the freezing process, here are some important hints:
•the maximum quantity of food which can be frozen in 24 hours is shown on the rating plate;
•the freezing process takes 24 hours no further food to be frozen should be added during this period;
•freeze only top quality, fresh and thoroughly cleaned, foodstuffs;
•prepare food in small portions to enable it to be rapidly and completely frozen and to make it possible subsequently to thaw only the quantity required;
•wrap up the food in aluminium foil or polythene and make sure that the packages are airtight;
•do not allow fresh, unfrozen food to touch food which is already frozen, thus avoiding a rise in temperature of the latter;
9
•lean foods store better and longer than fatty ones; salt reduces the storage life of food;
•water ices, if consumed immediately after removal from the freezer compartment, can possibly cause the skin to be freeze burnt;
•it is advisable to show the freezing in date on each individual pack to enable you to keep tab of the storage time.
To obtain the best performance from this appliance, you should:
•make sure that the commercially frozen foodstuffs were adequately stored by the retailer;
•be sure that frozen foodstuffs are transferred from the foodstore to the freezer in the shortest possible time;
•not open the door frequently or leave it open longer than absolutely necessary;
•once defrosted, food deteriorates rapidly and cannot be refrozen;
•do not exceed the storage period indicated by the food manufacturer.
WARNING! Refer to Safety chapters.
CAUTION! Unplug the
appliance before carrying out any maintenance operation.
This appliance contains hydrocarbons in its cooling unit; maintenance and recharging must therefore only be carried out by authorized technicians.

3.Rinse and dry thoroughly.
10
4.If accessible, clean the condenser and the compressor at the back of the appliance with a brush.
This operation will improve the performance of the appliance and save electricity consumption.
Frost is automatically eliminated from the evaporator of the refrigerator compartment every time the motor compressor stops, during normal use. The defrost water drains out through a trough into a special container at the back of the appliance, over the motor compressor, where it evaporates.
It is important to periodically clean the defrost water drain hole in the middle of the refrigerator compartment channel to prevent the water overflowing and dripping onto the food inside.
CAUTION! Never use sharp metal tools to scrape off frost from the evaporator as you could damage it. Do not use a mechanical device or any artificial means to speed up the thawing process other than those recommended by the manufacturer. A temperature rise of the frozen food packs, during defrosting, may shorten their safe storage life.
About 12 hours prior to defrosting, set a lower temperature, in order to build up sufficient chill reserve for the interruption in operation.
A certain amount of frost will always form on the freezer shelves and around the top compartment.
Defrost the freezer when the frost layer reaches a thickness of about 3-5 mm.
1.Switch off the appliance, or pull out the electrical plug from the wall socket.
2.Remove any stored food, wrap it in several layers of newspaper and put it in a cool place.
WARNING! Do not touch frozen food with wet hands. Hands can freeze to the goods.
3.Leave the door open and protect the floor from the defrosting water e.g. with a cloth or a flat vessel.
In order to speed up the defrosting process, place a pot of warm water in the freezer compartment. In addition, remove pieces of ice with an ice scraper before defrosting is complete.
4.When defrosting is completed, dry the interior thoroughly.
5.Switch on the appliance.
Wait at least 3 hours before putting the food back into the freezer compartment.
When the appliance is not in use for long periods, take the following precautions:
1.Disconnect the appliance from electricity supply.
2.Remove all food.
3.Clean the appliance and all accessories.
4.Leave the door/doors open to prevent unpleasant smells.
