3.1 Information about New
Generation Cooling
Technology
Fridges with new-generation cooling technology have a different operating system
to static fridges.
Other (static) fridges
may experience a
build up of ice in the
freezer compartment
due to door openings
and humidity in the
food. In such fridges,
regular defrosting is
required; the fridge
must be switched off,
the frozen food moved
to a suitable container
and the ice which has formed in the
freezer compartment removed. In fridges with new-generation cooling technology, a fan blows dry cold air evenly
throughout the refrigerator and freezer
compartments. The cold air cools your
food evenly and uniformly, preventing
humidity and ice build-up.
In the refrigerator compartment, air
blown by the fan, located at the top of
the refrigerator compartment, is cooled
while passing through the gap behind
the air duct. At the same time, the air is
blown out through the holes in the air
duct, evenly spreading cool air throughout the refrigerator compartment.
There is no air passage between the
freezer and refrigerator compartments, therefore preventing the mixing of
odours.
As a result, your fridge, with new-generation cooling technology, provides
you with ease of use as well as a huge
volume and aesthetic appearance.

4 Food storage
4.1 Refrigerator compartment
For normal operating conditions, set
the temperature of the refrigerator compartment to +4 or +6 °C.
• To reduce humidity and avoid the
consequent formation of frost, always
store liquids in sealed containers in
the refrigerator. Frost tends to concentrate in the coldest parts of the
evaporating liquid and, in time, your
appliance will require more frequent
defrosting.
• Never place warm food in the refrigerator. Warm food should be allowed
to cool at room temperature and
should be arranged to ensure adequate air circulation in the refrigerator
compartment.
• Make sure no items are in direct contact with the rear wall of the appliance as frost will develop and packaging will stick to it. Do not open the
refrigerator door frequently.
• We recommend that meat and clean
sh are loosely wrapped and stored
on the glass shelf just above the vegetable bin where the air is cooler, as
this provides the best storage conditions.
• Store loose fruit and vegetable items
in the suitable containers of the fruit
and vegetable drawer.
• Store loose fruit and vegetable items
in the suitable fruit and vegetable
drawer.
• Storing fruit and vegetables separately helps prevent ethylene-sensitive
vegetables (green leaves, broccoli,
carrot, etc.) being affected by ethylenereleaser fruits (banana, peach,
apricot, g etc.).
• Do not put wet vegetables into the
refrigerator.
• Storage time for all food products
depends on the initial quality of the
food and an uninterrupted refrigeration cycle before refrigerator storage.
• To avoid cross-contamination do not
store meat products with fruit and
vegetables. Water leaking from meat
may contaminate other products in
the refrigerator. You should package
meat products and clean any leakages on the shelves.
• Do not put food in front of the air ow
passage.
• Consume packaged foods before the
recommended expiry date.

4.2 Freezer compartment
For normal operating conditions, set
the temperature of the freezer compartment to -18 or -20 °C.
• The freezer is used for storing frozen
food, freezing fresh food, and making ice cubes.
• For freezing fresh food; wrap and
seal fresh food properly, that is the
packaging should be air tight and
shouldn’t leak.
Special freezer bags, aluminum foil
polythene bags and plastic containers are ideal.
• Do not store fresh food next to frozen food as it can thaw the frozen
food.
• Before freezing fresh food, divide it
into portions that can be consumed
in one sitting.
• Consume thawed frozen food within
a short period of time after defrosting
• Never place warm food in the freezer compartment as it will thaw the
frozen food.
• Always follow the manufacturer’s
instructions on food packaging when
storing frozen food. If no information
is provided food, should not be
stored for more than 3 months from
the date of purchase.
• When purchasing frozen food,
make sure that it has been stored
under appropriate conditions and
that the packaging is not damaged.
• Frozen food should be transported in
appropriate containers and placed
in the freezer as soon as possible.
• Do not purchase frozen food if the
packaging shows signs of humidity
and abnormal swelling. It is pro-
EN
19
Use
Instructions
bable that it has been stored at an
unsuitable temperature and that the
contents have deteriorated.
• The storage life of frozen food
depends on the room temperature,
the thermostat setting, how often the
door is opened, the type of food,
and the length of time required to
transport the product from the shop
to your home. Always follow the
instructions printed on the packaging
and never exceed the maximum
storage life indicated.
• The maximum amount of fresh food
(in kg) that can be frozen in 24
hours is indicated on the appliance
label.
• To use the maximum capacity of the
freezer compartment, use the glass
shelves for the upper and middle
section, and use the lower basket for
the bottom section.
• Use the fast freezing shelf to freeze
home cooking (and any other food
which needs to be frozen quickly)
more quickly because of the freezing
shelf’s greater freezing power. Fast
freezing shelf is the bottom drawer
of the freezer compartment.
Note: If you attempt to open the freezer
door immediately after closing it, you
will nd that it will not open easily. This
is normal. Once equilibrium has been
reached, the door will open easily.
Important Notes:
• Never refreeze thawed frozen food.
• The taste of some spices found in
cooked dishes (anise, basilica,
watercress, vinegar, assorted spices,
ginger, garlic, onion, mustard, thyme, marjoram, black pepper, etc.)
changes and they assume a strong
taste when they are stored for a long
period of time. Therefore, add small
amounts of spices to food to be frozen, or the desired spice should be
added after the food has thawed.
• The storage time of food is dependent on the type of oil used. Suitable
oils are margarine, calf fat, olive
oil and butter. Unsuitable oils are
peanut oil and pig fat.
• Food in liquid form should be frozen
in plastic cups and other food should
be frozen in plastic folios or bags.

5 Cleaning and Maintenance
5.1 Defrosting
Occasional presence of frost
inside the freezer compartment
is normal.
Do not use electrical appliances (e.g. hair dryers) or sprays
for defrosting, the plastic parts
could be damaged.
Defrosting the refrigerator/freezer
compartments
The refrigerator/freezer compartment
does not require defrosting, as any
ice which forms on the refrigeration
plate will melt when the compressor is
switched off. The defrosting process is
automatic.
Defrost water is channelled directly into
the vaporisation container on the back
of the appliance, which lets it evaporate by means of the heat generated by
the compressor.
5.2 Instructions
Improper use
Risk of damage to surfaces
• Do not use steam jets to clean the
appliance.
• Do not use cleaning products containing chlorine, ammonia or bleach
on parts made of steel or that have
metallic surface nishes (e.g. anodizing, nickelor chromium-plating).
• Do not use abrasive or corrosive
detergents (e.g. scouring products,
stain removers and metallic sponges) on glass parts.
• Do not use rough or abrasive materials or sharp metal scrapers.
Power voltage
Danger of electrocution
• Turn off the appliance and unplug it
from the mains before cleaning or
maintenance.
• Do not pull the cable to remove the
plug.
• After washing, rinse with clean

If you are experiencing a problem with
your refrigerator, please check the following before contacting the after-sales
service.
Your refrigerator does not operate
Check if:
• Your fridge is plugged in and swi-
tched on
• The fuse has blown
• Is the temperature adjustment right?
• The socket is faulty. To check this,
plug another working appliance into
the same socket.
Your refrigerator is performing poorly
Check if:
• The appliance is overloaded
• The doors are closed properly
• There is any dust on the condenser
• There is an adequate distance
between the appliance and surrounding walls
36
Before calling after-sales service
Your refrigerator is operating noisily
The following noises can be heard during normal operation of the appliance.
Cracking (ice cracking) noise occurs:
• During automatic defrosting.
• When the appliance is cooled or
warmed (due to expansion of appliance material).
Clicking noise occurs: When the
thermostat switches the compressor on/
off.
Motor noise: Indicates the compressor
is operating normally. The compressor
may cause more noise for a short time
when it is rst activated.
Bubbling noise and splashing occurs:
Due to the ow of the refrigerant in the
tubes of the system.
Water owing noise occurs: Due
to water owing to the evaporation
container. This noise is normal during
defrosting.
Air blowing noise occurs: During normal operation of the system due to the
circulation of air. There is a build-up of
humidity inside the refrigerator.
Check if:
• All food is packed properly. Containers must be dry before being
placed in the refrigerator.
• The refrigerator doors are opened
frequently.
Humidity of the room will enter the
fridge each time the doors are opened.
Humidity increases faster if the doors
are opened frequently, especially if
the humidity of the room is high.
• There is a build-up of water droplets
on the rear wall. This is normal after
automatic defrosting (in Static Models).
The doors are not opening or closing
properly
Check if:
• There is food or packaging preventing the door from closing
• The door compartments, shelves and
drawers are placed properly
• The door gaskets are broken or torn
• Your appliance is level.
The edges of the appliance in contact
with the door joint are warm
Especially during summer (warm weather), the surfaces in contact with the
door joint may become warmer during
operation of the compressor. This is
normal.
Important Notes:
• In the case of a power failure, or
if the appliance is unplugged and
plugged in again, the gas in the cooling system of your refrigerator will
destabilise, causing the compressor
protective thermal element to open.
Your refrigerator will start to operate
normally after 5 minutes.
• If the appliance will not be used for
a long period of time (such as during holidays), disconnect the plug.
Defrost and clean the refrigerator,
leaving the door open to prevent the
formation of mildew and odour.

Practical energy saving advice
• If the problem persists after you have
followed all the instructions above,
please consult the nearest Authorised
Service Centre.
• This appliance is designed for domestic use and for the stated purposes
only. It is not suitable for commercial
or common use. If the consumer uses
the appliance in a way that does
not comply with these instructions,
we emphasise that the manufacturer
and the dealer will not be responsible for any repair or failure within
the guarantee period.
9 Practical energy saving
advice
1. Install the appliance in a cool,
well-ventilated room, but not in direct
sunlight and not near a heat source
(such as a radiator or oven) otherwise an insulating plate should be
used.
2. Allow warm food and drinks to
cool before placing them inside the
appliance.
3. Place thawing food in the refrigerator compartment. The low temperature of the frozen food will help cool
the refrigerator compartment while
the food is thawing. This will save
energy. Frozen food left to thaw
outside of the appliance will result in
a waste of energy.
4. Drinks or other liquids should be
covered when inside the appliance.
If left uncovered, the humidity inside
the appliance will increase, therefore the appliance uses more energy.
Keeping drinks and other liquids
covered helps preserve their smell
and taste.
5. Avoid keeping the doors open for
long periods and opening the doors
too frequently as warm air will enter
the appliance and cause the compressor to switch on unnecessarily
often.
6. Keep the covers of the different temperature compartments (such as the
crisper and chiller) closed.
7. The door gasket must be clean and
pliable. Replace gaskets if worn.
