Note: Displayed set points correspond to the average temperature throughout the whole refrigerator.

Vacation Mode

This function can be activated to reduce the energy consumption of the appliance during a prolonged
period of time. After activating the function, remove the food from the appliance and keep the
door closed since the refrigerator will maintain a suitable temperature to prevent the formation of
unpleasant odors (+12°C).
To activate/deactivate press the Vacation mode button for 3 seconds. When the function is enabled,
the related symbol will light up and the temperature of the refrigerator compartment will be set to a
higher setpoint (the temperature display will show the new temperature setpoint of +12°C). Changing
the temperature setpoint will automatically deactivate the function.

Fan

The Fan improves temperature distribution inside the product, allowing better preservation of stored
food. By default, the fan is switched on.
To switch off the FAN press and hold Fast Cool and Stop Alarm buttons at the same time
for 3 seconds until an audible signal sounds and Fan icon will turn off as conrmation that the fan

has been switched off. To switched on the FAN repeat the same procedure. As a conrmation audible

signal sounds and the icon turns on.

Note: Reasons why switch off the fan look for “ENERGY-SAVING TIPS” in the Instructions for Use.

Refrigerator compartment temperature

A different temperature can be set using the “Temperature” button.

Fast Cool Function

Using Fast Cool function it is possible to increase the cooling capacity in the refrigerator
compartment. The use of this function is recommended when placing a very high quantity of food in
the refrigerator compartment. Press the Fast Cool button to activate Fast Cool function. When
activated, the Fast Cool indicator turns on. The function is automatically disabled after 6 hours, or can
be manually disabled by pressing Fast Cool button again.

its size and use.

• The appliance is arranged for operation in places where the temperature comes within the following

ranges, according to the climatic class given on the rating plate. The appliance may not work properly

if it is left for a long time at a temperature outside the specied range.

Getting Started and Daily Use

1. When the appliance is delivered, ensure that it has not been damaged and that the door closes
properly. Please communicate any damage to the dealer within 24 hours of delivery.

2. We recommend waiting at least two hours before switching the appliance on to ensure that the

refrigerant circuit is fully efcient.

3. It is best to clean the inside of the appliance before using it.

4. Where provided, place the antibacterial / anti-odour lter inside the fan area as indicated on the

lter packaging.

Please note:

In models with electronics, an acoustic signal may be emitted when the appliance is connected to the
electricity grid to indicate that the temperature alarm has been activated. To switch off the acoustic
signal, press the Stop Alarm button.

PLEASE NOTE:

• The ideal storage temperatures for the food are pre-set in the factory.

• After turning the appliance on, it will take about 4-5 hours to reach the correct storage

temperature for an appliance lled at standard capacity.

DAILY USE

1.
Switching the
appliance on/off

Press the On/Standby button for 3 seconds.

2.
Freezing fresh food

Fresh food can be frozen in the freezer compartment (if available). Position the food
on the shelf or directly on the bottom of the compartment at a distance of 20 mm from
any already frozen food. Check the data plate for the amount of fresh food that can be
frozen in a 24-hour period.

Please note: Re-freezing partially defrosted food is not recommended.

3.
Defrosting

The refrigerator compartment defrosts automatically.
It is not necessary to defrost the freezer compartment on frost free models.
To defrost the other models, switch off the appliance and remove the drawers, leaving
the freezer door open to allow the frost to melt. For best results, use an absorbent cloth
to soak up the water then clean and dry the compartment before switching the appliance
back on and placing the food back inside.

Please note: We suggest activating the Fast Freeze function about 4 hours before
removing the food to defrost the freezer. Doing so will prolong food storage.

Please refer to the Instructions for Use Manual or www.kitchenaid.eu for more detailed

information and suggestions for use.

Cleaning

Maintenance and Cleaning of the appliance

Clean the appliance occasionally with a microber soft and non-abrasive cloth

to not leave any scratch on the surfaces. The surface must not be cleaned
with products containing abrasives or with abrasive or melamine sponges or
unsuitable tools .
The cloth could be used with or without cleaners. In case of cleaners a solution

of warm water and neutral cleaning agents specically for cleaning the inside

of the refrigerator is preferred. Do not use abrasive cleaning agents and avoid

products with strong acid or very alkaline base because they could affect the surface. To ensure the

constant and correct ow of the defrosting water, regularly clean the inside of the drain situated in

the back wall of the refrigerator compartment near the fruit and vegetable drawer using the utensil

provided (see gure). Before carrying out any maintenance or cleaning, take the plug out of the socket

or disconnect the appliance from the power supply.

Please refer to the Instructions for Use Manual or www.kitchenaid.eu for more information.
