Movable shelves
The walls of the refrigerator are equipped
with a series of runners so that the
shelves can be positioned as desired.
Do not move the glass shelf
above the vegetable drawer to
ensure correct air circulation.

and keeps more uniform temperature in
the compartment.
When you switch off the
appliance remember to turn off
the fan by pressing the button
(A). The green light (B) comes
off.
Temperature indicator
For proper storage of food the refrigerator
is equipped with the temperature indicator.
The symbol on the side wall of the
appliance indicates the coldest area in the
refrigerator.
If OK is displayed (A), put fresh food into
area indicated by symbol, if not (B), adjust
the temperature controller to a colder
setting and wait 12 hours before checking
the temperature indicator again.
Page 9
24
After putting fresh food into the
appliance or after opening the
door repeatedly or for a long
period, it is normal for the
indicator not to show OK. Wait
at least 12 hours before
readjusting the temperature
controller.
Freezing and storage of frozen
food
The freezer compartment is suitable for
freezing fresh food and storing frozen and
deep-frozen food for a long time.
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 with the FastFreeze function
turned on.
Place the fresh food to be frozen in the top
compartment.
The maximum amount of food that can be
frozen in 24 hours is specified on the
rating plate, a label located on the inside
of the appliance.
The freezing process lasts 24 hours,
during this period do not add other food to
be frozen.
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).
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.
Ice-cube production
This appliance is equipped with one or
more trays for the production of ice-cubes.
Do not use metallic instruments
to remove the trays from the
freezer.
1. Fill these trays with water
2. Put the ice trays in the freezer
compartment.
Cold accumulators
The freezer contains at least one cold
accumulator which increases storage time
in the event of a power cut or breakdown.
This shall be placed on top of the frozen
food in the front part.
Frozen Food Calendar
The symbols show different types of
frozen goods.
The numbers indicate storage times in
months for the appropriate types of frozen
goods. Whether the upper or lower value
of the indicated storage time is valid
depends on the quality of the foods and
treating before freezing.
Thawing
Deep-frozen or frozen food, prior to being
used, can be thawed in the refrigerator
Page 10
HINTS AND TIPS
25
Normal operating sounds
The following sounds are normal during
operation:
• A faint gurgling and bubbling sound
from coils sound when refrigerant is
pumped.
• A whirring and pulsating sound from
the compressor when refrigerant is
pumped.
• A sudden cracking noise from inside
appliance caused by thermic dilatation
(a natural and not dangerous physical
phenomenon).
• A faint click noise from the temperature
regulator when the compressor
switches on or off.
Hints for energy saving
• Do not open the door frequently or
leave it open longer than absolutely
necessary.
• Do not remove the cold accumulators
from the freezer basket.
Hints for fresh food refrigeration
• Do not store warm food or evaporating
liquids in the refrigerator.
• 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 a suitable
packaging and place it on the glass
shelf above the vegetable drawer.
Store meat for at most 1-2 days.
• Cooked foods, cold dishes: cover and
place on any shelf.
• Fruit and vegetables: clean thoroughly
and place in a special drawer.
Bananas, potatoes, onions and garlic
must not be kept in the refrigerator if
not packed.
• Butter and cheese: place in a special
airtight container or wrap in an
aluminium foil or a polythene bag to
exclude as much air as possible.
• Bottles: close with a cap and place on
the door bottle shelf, or (if available) on
the bottle rack.
Hints for freezing
• Freeze only top quality, fresh and
thoroughly cleaned food products.
• For more efficient freezing and thawing
divide food into small portions.
• Wrap the food in aluminium foil or
polythene. Make sure that the
packages are airtight.
• To avoid increase in temperature of
already frozen food, do not place fresh
unfrozen food directly next to it.
• Lean foods store better and longer than
fatty ones. Salt reduces the storage life
of food.
• Do not eat ice cubes, water ices or ice
lollies immediately after taking them out
of the freezer. Risk of frostbites.
• It is advisable to show the freezing date
on each individual pack to enable you
to keep tab of the storage time.
Hints for storage of frozen food
• Make sure that the commercially frozen
food products were adequately stored
by the retailer.
• Make sure that frozen foodstuffs are
transferred from the food store to the
freezer in the shortest possible time.
• Once defrosted, food deteriorates
rapidly and cannot be refrozen.
• Do not exceed the storage period
indicated by the food manufacturer.

CARE AND CLEANING
WARNING! Refer to Safety
chapters.
General warnings
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.
The accessories and parts of
the appliance are not suitable
for washing in a dishwasher.
Periodic cleaning
CAUTION! Do not pull, move
or damage any pipes and/or
cables inside the appliance.
CAUTION! Do not damage the
cooling system.
The equipment has to be cleaned
regularly:
1. Clean the inside and accessories with
lukewarm water and some neutral
soap.
2. Regularly check the door seals and
wipe them clean to ensure they are
clean and free from debris.
3. Rinse and dry thoroughly.
4. If accessible, clean the condenser and
the compressor at the back of the
appliance with a brush.
This will improve the performance of
the appliance and save electricity
consumption.
Defrosting of the refrigerator
Frost is automatically eliminated from the
evaporator of the refrigerator compartment
every time the motor compressor stops,
during normal use. The defrost water
drains out through a trough into a special
container at the back of the appliance,
over the motor compressor, where it
evaporates.
It is important to periodically clean the
defrost water drain hole in the middle of
the refrigerator compartment channel to
prevent the water overflowing and dripping
onto the food inside.
Defrosting of the freezer
CAUTION! Never use sharp
metal tools to scrape off frost
from the evaporator as you
could damage it.
A temperature rise of the
frozen food packs, during
defrosting, may shorten their
safe storage life.
Do not use a mechanical
device or any artificial means to
speed up the thawing process
other than those recommended
by the manufacturer.
A certain amount of frost will always form
on the freezer shelves and around the top
compartment.
Defrost the freezer when the frost layer
reaches a thickness of about 3-5 mm.
1. Pull out the plug from the wall socket
or switch off the appliance.
2. Remove any stored food, wrap it in
several layers of newspaper and put it
in a cool place
Page 12
27
CAUTION! Do not touch
Periods of non-operation
frozen goods with wet
hands. Hands can freeze to
the goods.
3. Open the door.
In order to speed up the defrosting
process, place a pot of warm water in
the freezer compartment. In addition,
remove pieces of ice that break away
before defrosting is complete.
4. When defrosting is completed, dry the
interior thoroughly and keep the
scraper for future use.
5. Switch on the appliance.
6. Set the temperature regulator to obtain
the maximum coldness and run the
appliance for two or three hours using
this setting.
7. Reload the previously removed food
into the compartment.
When the appliance is not in use for long
periods, take the following precautions:
1. Disconnect the appliance from
electricity supply.
2. Remove all food.
3. Defrost (if necessary) and clean the
appliance and all accessories.
4. Clean the appliance and all
accessories.
5. Leave the door/doors open to prevent
unpleasant smells.
CAUTION! If you want to keep
the appliance switched on, ask
somebody to check it once in a
while to prevent the food inside
from spoiling in case of a
power failure.
