1. INSTALLATION

1.1. INSTALLING SINGLE APPLIANCE

To guarantee adequate ventilation, leave a space on both sides and above the appliance.

The distance between the rear of the appliance and the wall behind the appliance should be at least 50mm.

A reduction of this space will increase the Energy consumption of product.

1.2. INSTALLING TWO APPLIANCES

During installing the freezer 1 and the fridge 2 together ensure that the freezer is located on the left and the fridge on the right (as shown on the drawing). Left side

of refrigerator is equipped with special device in order to avoid condensation problems between appliances.

We recommended installing two appliances together using the linking-kit 3 (as shown on the drawing). You can buy it in Service.

2. FUNCTIONS

2.1. SMART DISPLAY*

This function can be used to save energy. Please follow the instructions contained in the Quick Start Guide to activate/deactivate the function. Two seconds after activation of the Smart Display, the display goes off. To adjust the temperature or use other functions, it is

necessary to activate the display by pressing any button. After about 15 seconds without performing any action, the display goes off again. When function is deactivated the normal display is restored. The Smart Display is automatically disabled after a power failure. Remember that this function does not disconnect the appliance from the power supply, but only reduce the energy consumed by external display.

Note: The declared appliance energy consumption refers to operation with the Smart Display function activated. This function is available only on the model with User Interface on the door.

2.2. 6TH SENSE FREEZE CONTROL /

PROFREEZE FREEZE CONTROL

The 6th Sense Freeze Control / ProFreeze Freeze Control function works to maintain the right temperature in the following cases:

- Door opened for a while

The function activates when door opening causes the internal temperature to increase to values that do not ensure safe storage of food and remains active until optimal storage conditions have been restored.

- Fresh food stored in the freezer

The function activates when fresh food is placed in the freezer and remains active until optimal freezing

conditions are reached so as to ensure the best freezing quality with the lowest power consumption.

Note: Besides the quantity of food loaded into the freezer, ambient temperature and the quantity of food already inside the freezer affect the duration of the 6th Sense Freeze Control / ProFreeze Freeze Control function. Therefore significant duration variations are quite normal.

2.3. ON/STAND BY

This function turns On/Stand-by the freezer compartments. To put the product in Stand-by, press &

hold the On/Stand-by button for 3 seconds. When the appliance is in Stand-by, the light inside the freezer compartment does not work. Remember that this operation does not disconnect the appliance from the power supply. To switch the appliance On again, simply

press the On/Stand-By button .

2.4. BLACK OUT ALARM

After a power blackout, your product is designed to automatically monitor the temperature in the freezer when electricity is resupplied. If the temperature in the freezer rises above freezing level, the Black Out indicator

turns on, the Alarm indicator blinks and the acoustical alarm sounds when electricity is resupplied. To reset the alarm press the Stop Alarm button just once.

In case of Black Out Alarm, the following actions are recommended:

•If the food in the freezer is unfrozen but still cold, all the food in the freezer should be eaten within the next 24 hours.

•If the food in the freezer is frozen, this indicates the food was thawed and then refrozen when electricity was re-supplied which degrades taste, quality

and nutritional value and also could be unsafe. It is recommended to not consume the food but to

dispose of the entire content of the freezer. The Black Out Alarm is designed to provide guidance on food quality in the freezer in the event of electricity black out. This system does not guarantee food quality

or safety and consumers are advised to use their own judgment in evaluating food quality in freezer compartment.

2.5. TEMPERATURE ALARM

The acoustic alarm sounds and temperature indicator (°C) blinks. The alarm is activated when:

•The appliance is connected to the power supply after prolonged disuse

•The freezer compartment temperature is too high

•The quantity of fresh foods loaded into the freezer exceeds that indicated on the rating plate

•The freezer door has been left open for a long time. To mute the alarm buzzer press Stop Alarm button just once. The Alarm indicator is automatically turned-off as soon as the freezer compartment reaches a temperature below -10°C and the temperature set indicator (°C) stop blinking and shows the chosen setting.

2.6. DOOR OPEN ALARM

The Alarm icon lights up blinking and the acoustic alarm sounds. The alarm is activated when the door is left open for more than 2 minutes. To disengage the door alarm close the door, or press once Stop Alarm button

to mute the acoustic alarm.

*Available on selected models only. Please check on the QUICK START GUIDE if this function is actually available on your model.

2.7. PARTY MODE*

Use this function to chill drinks inside the freezer compartment. 30 minutes after selection (the time required to chill a 0.75 l bottle without the glass breaking), the symbol flashes, an acoustic alarm sounds: remove the bottle from the freezer compartment and press the Stop Alarm button to disable the alarm.

Important: do not leave the bottle inside the freezer compartment longer than the time necessary for chilling.

2.8. SHOCK FREEZE*

The “Shock Freeze” compartment is specifically designed to freeze up to 2 kg of fresh food extremely quickly. The ultra-fast “Shock Freeze” function minimizes the formation of ice crystals inside the food as it freezes, thus ensuring it is of the best possible quality when defrosted prior

to consumption. When the “Shock Freeze” function is not active, the compartment can be used as normal for traditional freezing or for the storage of already frozen foods.

Note: When the Shock Freeze function is active you may hear a humming sound. This is absolutely normal and is caused by airflow that permits optimum cold distribution inside compartment.

Activating and deactivating the “Shock Freeze” function:

1.Make sure at least 12 hours have passed since the last time the “Shock Freeze” function was activated (if at all). Do not activate the function more frequently than once every 12 hours.

2.Make sure that the “Fast Freeze” function is not active: “Shock Freeze” and “Fast Freeze” functions cannot be active together at the same time.

3.Empty the “Shock Freeze” compartment.

4.Activate the “Shock Freeze” function by briefly touching

the buttonon the control panel: the icon lights up and the fans on the bottom of the compartment come on, increasing the flow of cold air and accelerating the freezing process as a result.

5.Place the food to be frozen inside the compartment, a few centimeters (min. 2 cm) away from the fans on the back of the compartment, so that cold air can circulate.

6.To achieve maximum freezing speed, we recommend not to deactivate the “Shock Freeze” function until its automatic deactivation, keeping closed the door

7.The “Shock Freeze” function is automatically deactivated 4-5 hours after its activation: the indicator

switches off and the fans are deactivated. The “Shock Freeze” function may nevertheless be switched off at any time as desired, by briefly pressing the buttonon the control panel: the indicator switches off and the fans are deactivated.

Attention:

•Incompatibility with the “Fast Freeze” function

To guarantee optimal performance, the “Shock Freeze” and “Fast Freeze” functions cannot be used at the same time. Therefore, if the “Fast Freeze” function has been already engaged, it has to be disengaged first to activate the “Shock Freeze” function (and vice-versa).

•If the fans in the Shock Freeze compartment do not start working

After the “Shock Freeze” function has been activated, it may happen that the indicatorlights up as expected, but the fans do not start working. This is normal and means that freezer defrosting is in progress. At the end of the defrosting phase (maximum duration: 1.5 hours), the fans will automatically start working and the “Shock Freeze” process will begin as normal.

•If the indicatordoes not light up

If, after the buttonis pressed, the icon lights up: in this case thebutton has been pressed for too long. To activate the “Shock Freeze” function, first deactivate the Fast Freeze function (holding the button for 3 seconds, then briefly touch thebutton, without keeping it pressed for more than 1 second.

2.9. FAST FREEZE*

The amount of fresh food (in kg) that can be frozen in 24 hours is indicated on the appliance rating plate.

This function can be used for optimum appliance performance, 24 hours before placing fresh food in the freezer Please follow the instructions contained in the Quick Start Guide to activate/deactivate the function. After placing fresh food in the freezer, 24 hours on Fast Freeze function is generally sufficient; After 50 hours the Fast Freeze function automatically deactivates.

Attention:

In order to save energy, when freezing small amounts of food, the fast freeze function can be deactivated after a few hours.

• Incompatibility with the “Shock Freeze” function

To guarantee optimal performance, the “Shock Freeze” and “Fast Freeze” functions cannot be used at the same time. Therefore, if the “Fast Freeze” function has been already engaged, it has to be disengaged first to activate the “Shock Freeze” function (and vice-versa).

*Available on selected models only. Please check on the QUICK START GUIDE if this function is actually available on your model.

2.10. ECO NIGHT FUNCTION (NIGHT TIME RATE) *

The Eco Night function enables appliance energy consumption to be concentrated in the reduced rate hours (generally at night), when electricity is readily available and costs less than during the daytime (only in countries that utilise a time based multi-rate system - check energy rates with the local electricity company). To activate the function, press the button at the reduced rate start time (depending on the specific rates plan). For example, if the reduced rate starts at

8 p.m., press the button at that time. When the Eco Night indicator is ON, the function is ON. Once the function is activated, the appliance automatically adapts energy consumption according to the time selected, i.e. consuming less energy during the day than at night.

IMPORTANT: To operate properly, the function must be on during the night and day. The function remains on until deactivated (or it is deactivated in case of a power failure or appliance switch-off). To deactivate the function, press the button again. When the Eco Night indicator is OFF, the function is OFF.

Note: The declared appliance energy consumption refers to operation with the Eco Night function deactivated.

2.11. FREEZE CONTROL*

Freeze Control is an advanced technology that reduces temperature fluctuations in the whole freezer compartment to minimum, thanks to an innovative air system, totally independent from the fridge. Freeze burns are significantly reduced and food preserves its original quality and color. To activate the Freeze Control choose the function from the menu, set to >ON< and press OK button to confirm the selection. To deactivate this function repeat the same procedure setting to >OFF<.

The function works properly in a defined range of temperature: between -22°C and -24°C.

When the function is engaged and the current temperature in the freezer is set to the warmer set point than -22°C,

the temperature is automatically set to -22°C to match the working range.

If the function is engaged and the user modify the freezer temperature out of the working range, the function is automatically switched off.

In case of Fast freezing is engaged, the function“Freeze control”is inhibited until the Fast Freezing function switched off.

2.12. AUTOMATIC NO FROST

This product is designed to defrost automatically according to conditions of use and ambient humidity

No Frost freezers provide chilled air circulation around the storage areas and prevent the formation of ice, thereby completely eliminating the need for defrosting.

Frozen items don’t stick to the walls, labeling stays legible and storage space remains neat and clear.

In combination with the 6th Sense Freeze Control / ProFreeze Freeze Control, not only does it control the sensor, but directs the cooling power exactly where it is needed, optimizing energy efficiency.

*Available on selected models only. Please check on the QUICK START GUIDE if this function is actually available on your model.

We recommend to label and date all your frozen food. Adding a label will help you to identify foods and to know when they should be used before their quality deteriorates.Do not re-freeze defrosted food.

4.2. TIPS FOR FREEZING AND STORING FRESH FOOD

•Before freezing, wrap and seal fresh food in: aluminium foil, cling film, air and water-tight plastic bags, polythene containers with lids or freezer containers suitable for freezing fresh food.

•Food must be fresh, mature and of prime quality in order to obtain high quality frozen food.

•Fresh vegetables and fruit should preferably be frozen as soon as they are picked to maintain the full original nutritional value, consistency, colour and flavor.

Some meat, especially game, should be hung before it is frozen.

Note:

•Always leave hot food to cool before placing in the freezer.

•Eat fully or partially defrosted foods immediately. Do not refreeze unless the food is cooked after it has thawed. Once cooked, the thawed food can be refrozen.

•Do not freeze bottles with liquid.

4.3. USING ICE PACKS*

Ice packs helps in keeping frozen the foodstuffs in case of power failure. For the best usage of them, place them above food stored in the top of compartment.

4.4. FROZEN FOOD: SHOPPING TIPS

When purchasing frozen food products:

•Ensure that the packaging is not damaged (frozen food in damaged packaging may have deteriorated). If the package is swollen or has damp patches, it may not have been stored under optimal conditions and defrosting may have already begun.

•When shopping, buy frozen foods at the end of your trip and transport them in a thermally insulated cool bag.

•Once at home, place the frozen foods immediately in the freezer.

•If food has defrosted even partially, do not re-freeze it. Consume within 24 hours.

•Avoid or reduce temperature variations to the minimum. Respect the best-before date on the package.

•Always observe the storage information on the package.

5. FUNCTIONAL SOUNDS

Sounds coming from your appliances are normal since it has a number of fans and engines to regulate performances that switch on and off automatically.

Some of the functional sounds can be reduced through

•Leveling the appliance and installing it on an even surface

•Separating and avoiding contact between the appliance and furniture.

•Checking if the internal components are correctly placed.

•Checking if bottles and containers are not in contact with each other.

Some of the functional sounds you might hear:

A hissing sound when switching on the appliance for the first time or after a long pause.

Buzzing sound when water valve or fan start working.

A gurgling sound when refrigerant fluid enters into the pipes.

A cracking sound when compressor starts or when ready ice drops into ice box abrupt clicks when compressor switches on and off.

BRRR sound is from the compressor running.

The CLICK is from the thermostat which adjusts how often the compressor is running.

11

6. RECOMMENDATION IN CASE OF NO USE OF THE APPLIANCE

6.1. ABSENCE / VACATION

In case longer absence its recommended to use up food and to disconnect the appliance to save energy.

6.2. MOVING

1.Take out all internal parts.

2.Wrap them well, and fix them together with adhesive tape so that they do not bang together or get lost.

3.Screw the adjustable feet so that they do not touch the support surface.

4.Close and fix door with adhesive tape and, again using adhesive tape, fix the power cable to the appliance.

6.3. POWER FAILURE

In the event of a power failure, call the local office of your electricity supply company and ask how long it is going to last.

Note: Bear in mind that a full appliance will stay cold longer than a partially filled one.

If ice crystals are still visible on the food, it may be frozen again, although flavour and aroma may be affected.

If food is found to be in a poor condition, it is best to throw it away.

For power failures lasting up to 24 hours.

1.Keep the door of the appliance closed. This will allow the stored food to stay cold as long as possible.

For power failures lasting more than 24 hours.

1.Empty the freezer compartment and arrange the food in a portable freezer. If this type of freezer is not available and, likewise, no artificial ice packs are available, try to use up the food, which is more easily perishable.

2.Empty the ice tray.

7. MAINTENANCE AND CLEANING

Before any cleaning or maintenance operation, unplug the appliance from the mains or disconnect the electrical power supply.

Periodically clean the appliance with a cloth and a solution of lukewarm water and neutral detergent specifically for refrigerator interiors. Never use abrasives. Never clean refrigerator parts with flammable fluids. The fumes can create a fire hazard or explosion. Clean the outside of the appliance and the door seal with a damp cloth and dry with a soft cloth.

Do not use steam cleaners.

Condenser placed in the rear of the appliance should be cleaned regularly using a vacuum cleaner.

Important:

•The buttons and control panel display must not be cleaned with alcohol or alcohol-derived substances, but with a dry cloth.

8. TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE

8.1. BEFORE CONTACTING AFTER-SALES SERVICE…

Performance problems often result from little things you can find and fix yourself without tools of any kind.

PROBLEM	SOLUTION
The appliance is not working:	• Is the power cable plugged into a live socket with the proper
	voltage?
	• Have you checked the protection devices and fuses of the electrical
	system in your home?
If there is water in the defrost pan:	• This is normal in hot, damp weather. The pan can even be half full.
	Make sure the appliance is level so that the water does not overflow.
If the edges of the appliance cabinet,	• This is normal in hot weather and when the compressor is running.
which come in contact with the door
seal, are warm to the touch:
If the light does not work:	• Have you checked the protection devices and fuses of the electrical
	system in your home?
	• Is the power cable plugged into a live socket with the proper
	voltage?
	• In case the LEDs are broken the user must call the Service for
	exchange of the same type available only at our After-sales Service
	Centers or authorized dealers.
If the motor seems to run too much:	• Motor running time depends on different things: number of door
	openings, amount of food stored, temperature of the room, setting
	of the temperature controls.
	• Is the condenser (back the appliance) free of dust and fluff?
	• Are the door properly closed?
	• Are the door seals properly fitted?
	• On hot days or if the room is warm, the motor naturally runs longer.
	• If the appliance door has been left open for a while or if large
	amounts of food have been stored, the motor will run longer in order
	to cool down the interior of the appliance.
If the appliance temperature is too	• Are the appliance controls correctly set?
high:	• Has a large amount of food been added to the appliance?
	• Check that the door is not opened too often.
	• Check that the door close properly.
If the doors do not open and close	• Check that food packages are not blocking the door.
properly:	• Check that the internal parts or automatic ice maker are not out of
	position.
	• Check that the door seals are not dirty or sticky.
	• Ensure the appliance is level.

1. INSTALLATION

1.1. INSTALLATION EINES EINZELGERÄTS

Um eine ausreichende Belüftung sicherzustellen, muss an beiden Seiten und über dem Gerät etwas Platz gelassen werden.

Der Abstand zwischen der Geräterückwand und der Wand hinter dem Gerät sollte mindestens 50 mm betragen.

Eine Verringerung dieses Abstands erhöht den Energieverbrauch des Geräts.

1.2. INSTALLATION VON ZWEI GERÄTEN

Bei gemeinsamer Installation von Gefrierer 1 und Kühlschrank 2 sicherstellen, dass der Gefrierer sich auf der linken Seite und der Kühlschrank auf der rechten Seite befindet (siehe Zeichnung). Die linke Seite des Kühlschranks besitzt eine spezielle Vorrichtung, um Probleme der Kondensation zwischen den Geräten zu vermeiden.

Wir empfehlen, die beiden Geräte mit dem Verbindungsbausatz 3 gemeinsam zu installieren (wie abgebildet). Dieser ist im Kundenservice erhältlich.

1.3. TÜREN EINSTELLEN (FALLS VORHANDEN)

Um die Türen mit dem verstellbaren unteren Scharnier auszurichten

(Modelle auswählen)

Wenn die Kühlschranktür niedriger ist als die Gefrierertür, drehen Sie die Stellschraube entgegen dem Uhrzeigersinn mit einem M10-Schlüssel und erhöhen Sie die Kühlschranktür.

Wenn die Gefrierertür niedriger ist als die Kühlschranktür, drehen Sie die Stellschraube entgegen dem Uhrzeigersinn mit einem M10-Schlüssel und erhöhen Sie die Gefrierertür.

2. FUNKTIONEN

2.1. SMART-DISPLAY*

Mit dieser Funktion können Sie Energie sparen. Befolgen Sie die Anweisungen in der Kurzanleitung, um die Funktion zu aktivieren / zu deaktivieren. Zwei Sekunden nach Aktivierung des Smart-Displays schaltet das Display ab. Zum Einstellen der Temperatur oder für andere Funktionen müssen Sie das Display durch Drücken

einer beliebigen Taste wieder einschalten. Nach etwa 15 Sekunden ohne Betätigung einer Funktion schaltet das Display wieder ab. Bei deaktivierter Funktion wird das normale Display wiederhergestellt. Das Smart-Display wird nach einem Stromausfall automatisch deaktiviert. Bitte beachten Sie, dass diese Funktion nicht die Stromversorgung des Geräts unterbricht, sondern nur den Stromverbrauch durch das externe Display verringert.

Hinweis: Der angegebene Energieverbrauch bezieht sich auf den Betrieb mit aktiviertem Smart-Display. Diese Funktion ist nur bei dem Modell mit Benutzerschnittstelle an der Tür verfügbar.

2.2. 6TH SENSE GEFRIERKONTROLLE /

PROFREEZE GEFRIERKONTROLLE

Die 6th Sense Gefrierkontrolle / ProFreeze Gefrierkontrolle hält in den folgenden Fällen die korrekte Temperatur aufrecht:

- Tür kurzfristig geöffnet

Die Funktion wird aktiviert, wenn die Innentemperatur durch eine geöffnete Tür auf Werte ansteigt, bei denen die sichere Lagerung von Lebensmitteln nicht

garantiert werden kann und sie bleibt aktiv, bis optimale Lagerungsbedingungen wiederhergestellt sind.

- Frische Lebensmittel im Gefrierschrank platziert

Die Funktion wird aktiviert, wenn frische Lebensmittel im Gefrierschrank platziert werden und sie bleibt aktiv, bis optimale Gefrierbedingungen erreicht sind, um so die beste Gefrierqualität bei niedrigstem Energieverbrauch zu garantieren.

Hinweis: Abgesehen von der Menge an Lebensmitteln, die in den Gefrierschrank gegeben wird, wirken sich auch die Umgebungstemperatur und die Menge der bereits im Gefrierschrank vorhandenen Lebensmittel auf die Dauer der Funktion 6th Sense Gefrierkontrolle / ProFreeze Gefrierkontrolle aus. Schwankungen in der Betriebsdauer der Funktion sind somit völlig normal.

2.3. EIN/STAND-BY

Diese Funktion schaltet die Gefrierfächer ein oder in den

Stand-by-Modus. Halten Sie die Taste Ein/Stand-by 3 Sekunden lang gedrückt, um das Gerät in den Stand-by- Modus zu schalten. Im Stand-by-Modus ist die Leuchte im Gefrierfach nicht aktiv. Bitte beachten Sie, dass das Gerät im Stand-by-Modus weiterhin mit Strom versorgt

wird. Drücken Sie die Taste Ein/Stand-by , um das Gerät wieder einzuschalten.

2.4. STROMAUSFALL-ALARM

Bei einem Stromausfall ist Ihr Gerät in der Lage, die Temperatur im Gefrierraum nach Wiederaufnahme der Stromversorgung automatisch zu überwachen. Steigt die Temperatur im Gefrierraum über den Gefrierpunkt

an, leuchtet das Symbol Stromausfall auf, das Alarmsymbol blinkt und das Warnsignal ertönt, sobald die Stromversorgung wieder einsetzt.

Zum Rücksetzen des Alarms einmal die Alarm- Stoppen-Taste drücken.

Im Falle eines Stromausfallalarms sollten folgende Maßnahmen getroffen werden:

•Verbrauchen Sie angetaute, aber noch kalte Lebensmittel aus Gefrierfach innerhalb von 24 Stunden.

•Falls die Lebensmittel im Gefrierraum gefroren sind, bedeutet dies, dass sie angetaut waren und nach Wiederaufnahme der Stromversorgung wieder gefroren sind. Dadurch werden nicht nur Geschmack, Qualität und Nährwert der Lebensmittel verändert, sondern sie sind auch potentiell gefährlich. Sie sollten diese Lebensmittel nicht verzehren und den gesamten Inhalt des Gefrierfachs wegwerfen. Der StromausfallAlarm liefert Ihnen Hinweise zur Qualität der im Gefrierfach eingelagerten Lebensmittel im Falle eines Stromausfalls. Dieses System stellt keine Garantie für die Qualität und Unbedenklichkeit der Lebensmittel dar, sondern weist lediglich darauf hin, dass der einwandfreie Zustand der Lebensmittel im Gefrierfach überprüft werden muss.

2.5. TEMPERATURALARM

Der Alarmton ertönt und die Temperaturanzeige (°C) blinkt. Der Alarm wird in folgenden Fällen ausgelöst:

•Das Gerät wird nach längerer Zeit der Nichtbenutzung an die Stromversorgung angeschlossen

•Die Gefrierraumtemperatur ist zu hoch

•Die Menge der eingelagerten frischen Lebensmittel übersteigt die auf dem Typenschild angegebene

•Die Gefrierraumtür stand längere Zeit offen.

Zum Abschalten des Summers einmal die Alarm- Stoppen-Taste drücken. Die Alarmanzeige erlischt automatisch, sobald im Gefrierfach die Temperatur unter -10 °C sinkt, die Anzeige der eingestellten Temperatur (°C) nicht mehr blinkt und die gewählte Einstellung angezeigt wird.

2.6. ALARM TÜR OFFEN

Das Alarmsymbol blinkt und der Alarmton ertönt. Der Alarm wird aktiviert, wenn die Tür länger als 2 Minuten geöffnet bleibt. Schließen Sie die Tür oder drücken Sie die Taste Alarm stoppen , um den Alarmton auszuschalten.

* Verfügbar nur bei ausgewählten Modellen. Bitte sehen Sie in der KURZANLEITUNG, ob diese Funktion auf Ihrem Modell verfügbar ist.
