"ACTIVE OXYGEN" FUNCTION
Through the emission of a small quantity of ozone, this function
enables a reduction in the proliferation of bacteria and microorganisms
inside the refrigertor and limits bad odours. When the function is
activated, a coloured light will appear on the device, according to the
following cyclical features:
• Green light: ozone emission phase
• Blue light: antibacterial and anti-odour action phase (without
ozone emission)
To deactivate the function, simply press the O
panel.
Note: when the Active Oxygen function is activated, a faint odour might
be perceived inside the refrigertor (the same odour that sometimes
accompanies a thunder storm due to the zone produced by the lightning):
it is absolutely normal.
Note: Disabling the function optimizes energy consumption. Keep the
bottle rack grid in the upper parts of the comparison to optimize the
fuction.
