First use
Cleaning the interior
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 brandnew product, then dry thoroughly.
Daily use
Storage of frozen food
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 on the higher settings.
Important! In the event of accidental
defrosting, for example due to a power failure,
if the power has been off for longer than the
value shown in the technical characteristics
chart under "rising time", the defrosted food
must be consumed quickly or cooked
immediately and then re-frozen (after
cooling).
Important! Do not use detergents or
abrasive powders, as these will damage the
finish.
Carbon Air Filter
Your appliance is equipped with a carbon filter
behind a flap in the rear wall of the air
distributing box.
The filter purifies the air from unwanted
odours in the fridge compartment meaning
that the storage quality will be further
improved.
Important! During the operation, always
keep the air ventilation flap closed.
Thawing
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.
Movable shelves
The walls of the refrigerator are equipped
with a series of runners so that the shelves can
be positioned as desired.
11
Bottle rack
Place the bottles (with the opening facing
front) in the pre-positioned shelf.

Helpful hints and tips
Normal Operating
Sounds
• You may hear a faint gurgling and a bubbling
sound when the refrigerant is pumped
through the coils or tubing. This is not a fault
with the appliance and is a completely
normal operating sound.
• When the compressor is on, the refrigerant
is being pumped around and you will hear
a whirring sound and a pulsating noise from
the compressor. This is correct.
• The thermic dilatation might cause a
sudden cracking noise. This is not a fault
with the appliance and is a completely
normal operating sound.
14
Hints for energy saving
• 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 towards a warmer
setting to allow automatic defrosting and
will therefore save in electricity
consumption.
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
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.
Hints for freezing
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 hrs. is shown on the rating
plate;
• the freezing process takes 24 hours. No
further food to be frozen should be added
during this period;
• only freeze 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;
• lean foods store better and longer than
fatty ones; salt reduces the storage life of
food;
• it is advisable to show the use by date on
each individual pack to enable you to keep
tab of the storage time.
Warning! Lolly ices, if consumed
immediately after removal from the
freezer compartment can cause
freezer burns.
15
Hints for storage of
frozen food
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.
