SAFETY INFORMATION

In the interest of your safety and to ensure
the correct use, before installing and first
using the appliance, read this user manual
carefully, including its hints and warnings.
To avoid unnecessary mistakes and acci­dents, it is important to ensure that all
people using the appliance are thoroughly
familiar with its operation and safety fea­tures. Save these instructions 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.

1.1 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.

1.2 General safety

WARNING!

Keep ventilation openings, in the appli­ance enclosure or in the built-in structure,
clear of obstruction.

• The appliance is intended for keeping
foodstuff, production of cold water, with
or without carbon dioxide and for bev­erages in a normal household as ex­plained in this instruction booklet.

• If the gas cylinder is used for other pur­poses than that intended or if it is filled
by an unauthorised person, all guaran­tees automatically become null and
void.

• 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

3.1 Use of the fridge
compartment

The temperature of this compartment may
be regulated between +2°C and +8°C.
During normal functioning the indicator
shows the set temperature.

A medium setting is generally the
most suitable.

The exact setting should be chosen keep­ing in mind that the temperature inside the
appliance depends on:

• room temperature

• how often the door is opened

• the quantity of food stored

• the location of the appliance.
If the ambient temperature is high

or the appliance is fully loaded,
and the appliance is set to the
lowest temperatures, it may run
continuously causing frost to form
on the rear wall. In this case the
Temperature regulator must be
set to a higher temperature to al­low automatic defrosting and
therefore reduced energy con­sumption.

3.2 Taste Guard Filter

Your appliance is equipped with a carbon
filter behind the air lever flap.
The filter purifies the air from unwanted
odours in the fridge compartment pre­serving food quality.
On delivery the filter is in a plastic bag.
Refer to "Installation of the Taste Guard
filter" for instructions.

Make sure that the air lever flap is
closed to obtain proper function.

3.3 Vegetable Drawer

The drawer is suitable for storing fruit and
vegetables.
Some models have a separator inside the
drawer that can be placed in different po­sitions to allow for the subdivision best
suited to personal needs.
All parts inside the drawer can be re­moved for cleaning purposes.

3.4 Movable shelves

ENGLISH 9

The walls of the refrigerator are equipped
with a series of shelves support so that
the shelves can be positioned as desired.
Some shelves must be lifted up by the
rear edge to enable them to be removed.

The shelf (A) above the water
module is recommended to be
placed as shown for good air cir­culation.

A

3.5 Bottle rack

3.6 Positioning the door shelves

Do not move the glass shelf
above the vegetable drawer to en­sure correct air circulation.

Place the bottles (with the opening facing
front) in the pre-positioned shelf.

If the shelf is positioned horizon­tally, place only closed bottles.

This bottle holder shelf can be tilted in or­der to store previously opened bottles. To
obtain this result, pull the shelf up so it
can rotate upwards and be placed on the
next higher level.

To permit storage of food packages of
various sizes, the door shelves can be
placed at different heights.
To make these adjustments proceed as
follows:
Gradually pull the shelf in the direction of
the arrows until it comes free, then reposi­tion as required.

Do not move the big lower door
shelf to ensure correct air circula­tion.

3.7 Cleaning the interior

4. HELPFUL HINTS AND TIPS

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.

Check that the drain hose at the rear of
the cabinet discharges into the drip tray

4.1 Hints for energy saving

• Do not open the door frequently or

leave it open longer than absolutely
necessary.

• Place the shelf above the water module

as described in chapter “Daily use”.

• 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.

4.2 Hints for fresh food

refrigeration

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

4.3 Hints for refrigeration

Useful hints:

Meat (all types) : wrap in polythene bags
and place on the glass shelf above the
vegetable drawer.
For safety, store in this way only one or
two days at the most.
Cooked foods, cold dishes, etc..: these
should be covered and may be placed on
any shelf.
Fruit and vegetables: these should be
thoroughly cleaned and placed in the spe­cial drawer(s) provided.
Butter and cheese: these should be
placed in special airtight containers or
wrapped in aluminium foil or polythene
bags to exclude as much air as possible.
Milk bottles: these should have a cap and
should be stored in the bottle rack on the
door.
Bananas, potatoes, onions and garlic, if
not packed, must not be kept in the re­frigerator.

4.4 Hints for temperature inside
the fridge

• A suitable temperature inside the fridge
is approx. +4° C. When the tempera­ture regulator is set to +4° C this repre­sents the mean temperature in the
fridge. It is normal with higher tempera­ture in the top of the fridge. If the tem­perature regulator is set to a cold tem­perature, the ambient temperature is
high or if the fridge is fully loaded the
compressor will run for a longer time. If

too cold, change to a higher tempera­ture setting.

Do not place food against or close
to the temperature sensor (A).
This can result in too cold temper­atures.

5. CARE AND CLEANING

ENGLISH 11

• If you want to check the temperature of
food stored in the refrigerator, place a
glass of water centrally in the cabinet,
and put a proper thermometer with an
accuracy of +/– 1 °C into it. After 6
hours the temperature can be moni­tored. The measuring shall be per­formed under steady-stated conditions
(without changing the load).

A

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.

5.1 Periodic cleaning

The equipment has to be cleaned regular­ly:

• clean the inside and accessories with
lukewarm water and some neutral
soap.

• regularly check the door seals and wipe
clean to ensure they are clean and free
from debris.

• rinse and dry thoroughly.

Do not pull, move or damage any
pipes and/or cables inside the
cabinet.
Never use detergents, abrasive
powders, highly perfumed clean­ing products or wax polishes to
clean the interior as this will dam­age the surface and leave a
strong odor.

Clean the condenser (black grill) and the
compressor at the back of the appliance

with a brush. This operation will improve
the performance of the appliance and
save energy consumption.

Take care of not to damage the
cooling system.

When moving the cabinet, lift it by
the front edge to avoid scratching
the floor.

Many proprietary kitchen surface cleaners
contain chemicals that can attack/dam­age the plastics used in this appliance.
For this reason use a soft cloth rinsed in
warm water and neutral soap emulsion for
cleaning external surfaces.

Do not use detergents or abrasive
paste as these will damage the
paint, or stainless steel anti finger
print coating.

After cleaning, reconnect the equipment
to the mains supply.

5.2 Replacing the Taste Guard
filter
