Use & Care guide
EN
Active oxygen *
This device releases ozone molecules inside the refrigerator; ozone is a natural substance which combats bacteria and
microorganisms, reducing their proliferation while limiting unpleasant odors.
Automatically defines the amount of ozone required for prolonging the freshness of foodstuffs, eliminating odors and
preventing bacteria build-up. There may be a slight distinctive odor inside the refrigerator.
The very same smell can sometimes be detected during a storm, due to the ozone produced as the charge in the lightning bolts
is released; this is completely normal.
The amount produced by the device is very small and abates quickly as the antibacterial action takes place.
Device is activated pressing the dedicated key on the display located in front of the fridge door. By holding the Active Oxygen
button and Refrigerator Operation button for an least 6 s you can enable ECO feature.
ECO function*
The ECO function can be enabled to optimize energy consumption.
Press and hold down the ACTIVE OXYGEN and REFRIGERATOR OPERATION buttons simultaneously for at least 6 seconds to
enable this function. On enabling the function, 4 indicator lights will go on for 2 seconds: ACTIVE OXYGEN light, SUPER FREEZE
light and two temperature lights - one for the refrigerator and one for the freezer.
After 5 seconds the interface will enter the energy saving mode and the indicator lights will go off. The interface stays off even
when the door is opened. Just press any button to switch it on again. Press the adjustment buttons to change the temperature.
Consumption will be optimized 48h after the function was enabled.
To disable the ECO function, switch off the product (see description). The product can be switched on again for normal
operation.
In humid environments, when the ECO function is enabled, slight condensation may form on the doors; normal operating
conditions are restored when the function is disabled.
Easy access tray in freezer *
Freezer tray is useful to easily access frequently used products, freeze or simply store leftovers or small items.
Shelves
All shelves, flaps and pull-out baskets are removable.
Pull Out Shelf *
Due to the special guides the shelves are removable and the height is
adjustable allowing easy storage of large containers and food. Height can
be adjusted without complete removal of the shelf.
Tuck shelf *
Thanks to the rail system, this shelf allows you to slide under the front part, creating an extra space for storing tall bottles or
pitchers.
Door
Door reversibility
Note: the direction of door opening can be changed. If this operation is performed by After-sales Service it is not covered by the
warranty. Is recommended to reverse door swing by two persons. Follow instruction.
No-frost refrigerator compartment
Refrigerator compartment defrosting is completely automatic.
Droplets of water on the rear wall inside the refrigerator compartment indicate that the automatic defrost phase is in progress.
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.
