where to start?
choosing a location
Choose a place for your refrigerator. We recommend a large space that
can be kept clean and dry to prevent oxidation.
positioning
T
o ensure that the refrigerator works correctly, it’s important that air can
circulate. We recommend the following minimum surrounding distances:
•
10 cm on both sides, 10 cm at the back,
between 5 and 10 cm on top.
•
Don’t position it near heat-generating appliances
such as hobs, heaters, or in areas exposed to
sunlight. This could overwork the refrigerator,
making it less efcient and increasing energy
consumption.
•
Don’t lean it against a wall.
Observing these distances and recommendations
will guarantee you a fully-functioning product, as
it will prevent the components from direct contact
with walls and furniture, thus avoiding unpleasant
sounds.
installation
Y
ou must remove all packaging including:
tape, cardboard, plastic, and/or Styrofoam (EPS).
The refrigerator must not be connected to an
energy source before installation.
important
Let the refrigerator stand for 6 to 8 hours before
connecting it to allow the cooling gas and the
compressor oil to settle.

levelling
To level the refrigerator use
the two levelling screws
found on the base at the
front. Make sure that the
refrigerator is placed on level
ground. Adjust the levelling
screws to ensure that the
refrigerator doesn’t move
during day-to-day use.
Turn the screws anticlockwise to lift the front of
the refrigerator and clockwise
to lower it.
The front part of the
refrigerator should be a little
higher than the back causing
it to tilt backwards slightly.
Levelling requires two people;
one to tilt the unit backwards
and the other to turn the screws.
To level it, lift the front by turning the screws until there is a 48 mm (1.9
in) gap between the oor and the base of the refrigerator, as indicated in
the gure on the right.
observe the following when installing:
important –
after leaving the refrigerator to stand 6 to 8 hours
and before plugging it in:
1. Clean
the interior of your refrigerator with a cloth or soft sponge, and
a neutral soap or a soda bicarbonate solution.
2.
Plug it in to the correct outlet.
3. Leave
it on, empty and closed, for 4 hours before putting food inside.
4. Avoid opening the door before optimum temperature has been
reached.
5.
If you want to move your refrigerator to another location, disconnect
it. When it has been repositioned repeat steps 3 and 4.

minimum electrical requirements:
Check the voltage
and frequency
characteristics in
accordance with
your country of
residence.
electrical installation:
1. Install your refrigerator to
the closest outlet. The use of
an extension cord is not recommended
2.
Where
possible, avoid connecting other electrical
appliances to the same outlet as your refrigerator while
it’s in use. This will prevent uctuations in voltage and
overheating of the refrigerator.
3. To connect and disconnect your refrigerator, take the
cord by the plug and remove it. Never pull on the cable.
4. Your refrigerator comes equipped with a type “Y”
polarised power cord, which includes a grounding cable.
Do not remove the ground prong by using a two-prong
adaptor, or cut the cable to replace the original plug for
a two-prong plug.
5.
If you live in a region where there are voltage and
frequency variations, don’t connect your refrigerator
into the outlet. You must install an automatic voltage
regulator with a minimum power of 500 Watts for 1000
Watts. Make sure the regulator can handle your region’s
variations in tension.
6.
If
the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced
by the manufacter, its service agent or similarly
qualied persons in order to avoid a hazard.
important:
Ignoring the above-mentioned advice places the
responsibility for any personal or material risk
entirely with the customer.

know your product
The
refrigerator is designed to work within the room temperatures specied
in the table below.
note: The internal temperature can be affected by factors such as the
location of the refrigerator , the room temperature, and how often the doors
are opened. Adjust the temperature controls accordingly to compensate
for these factors.
For Chile and Europe:
For Brazil, Ecuador, Colombia, and Argentina:
temperature control
The internal temperatures of the freezer compartments and the cooler can
be regulated to allow them to be adjusted for suitable conservation of food.
When using your refrigerator for the rst time, we recommend maintaining
the original factory positions (in mid-position). Let it stand for 4 to 6 hours to
allow the temperature to stabilise.
If you need to change the temperature after this period you can adjust it with
the controls.
Page 10
10
general temperature control
The refrigerator control has temperature graduations for both compartments
that vary from minimum (least cold) to maximum (coldest). If needs be, adjust
the control and monitor the food for a couple of hours. You can readjust it
until you obtain the desired refrigeration level. Y ou will have to wait between
4 and 6 hours until the refrigerator reaches the selected temperature.
air regulator
Your refrigerator has an additional
control that regulates the air ow
between the freezer and the cooler.
It’s calibrated in the factory to ensure
optimum function, so we recommend
you don’t alter its position.
If you wish to adjust it, put a coin into
the central slot. By turning it to the right
you’ll generate greater air ow to the
freezer, accelerating the freezing process. However, you’ll notice that the
cooler will take longer to reach the correct temperature.
By turning the control to the left, the air ow to the cooler will increase,
delaying the freezing process according to the following guide:
note: For some models the temperature control is located on the exterior
control or display. If your model has an external control or display,
see page 72 to understand how it works.
important
Changing the position of the air regulator will alter the time it takes the
cooler to reach the correct temperature but not the temperature itself.
note: Do not overll the refrigerator
. Leave space between food and
use the shelves provided to hold everything. This will facilitate the
necessary air circulation and prevent it from lower performance.

cautions
1. The room temperature inuences the performance of your
refrigerator. The higher the external temperature, the colder the
selected temperature in the cooler should be.
2. We recommend selecting a lower temperature if you frequently open
the cooler door.
3.
When placing your food inside the refrigerator
, try not to block the
airways. This will allow adequate circulation and keep the inside
temperature stable and uniform, thus only freezing the items in the
freezer.
4.
Use the top compartment to freeze food, conserving it for longer
.
Use the lower compartment to refrigerate food. if your refrigerator
has a rapid cooling compartment, you should take into account that
some fresh fruit and vegetables are cold-sensitive and it is not a
good idea to keep them in this compartment.

how does it work?
First, place
the food and drink that you want to cool rapidly into the express
chill zone. Make sure to lower the bottom hatch of the express chill zone
before closing the freezer door.
To activate the express chill zone, press the express chill zone button on
the display a number of times until you reach the desired time. After 5
seconds it will start to work.
A countdown clock on the display screen will show the remaining time.
When the time is up, an alarm will sound, the countdown clock will read
“0” and the button light will ash for a minute, indicating that your food and
drink are ready to be taken out. The alarm will sound until you press the
express chill zone button.
The express chill zone Function will deactivate automatically:
a. If you keep pressing the express chill zone button, thereby
exiting the programme before the required time has lapsed.
b. If you press the express chill zone button once the programme
is completed and the alarm is sounding.
c. Once the cooling time has lapsed, the alarm has sounded for one
minute and stopped.
table of recommended chilling times
note: T
imes vary depending on the initial temperature of your foods and
drinks. If upon programme completion, the items haven’t reached the desired
temperature, you can add additional minutes using the display . The express
chill zone can be reprogrammed after 5 minutes have passed since last
use. If you decide to cool your items for longer, be alert for when the alarm
rings to indicate the foods and drinks are ready and remove them from
the compartment. This will prevent them from freezing, which is especially
important for carbonated beverages.
The following table outlines the times required to cool room temperature
drinks (25° to 30°) in the express chill
zone:
TIP: If you use the cooler for beer and
soda, you can bring them to the perfect
temperature before your guests arrive
using the express chill zone.
important:
Y
ou should not store carbonated drinks with the intention of
freezing them in the express chill zone. This programme should only be
used to cool them. DO NOT exceed the recommended times. Your alarm
will sound for a minute after the time has lapsed, which is when you need
to take your items out of the compartment.
Ignoring the above-mentioned advice places the responsibility for any
consequences entirely with the customer.

the cylinder’s interior.
caution: Only ll with drinking water.
removal of ice
1. After a while, your ice cubes will be
ready for use. To remove them, pull the
handle slowly towards you until it’s fully
down. At this point it will be necessary
to pull the handle a little more forcefully
until you hear the ice fall into the lower
compartment of your Smart Fill Ice
Factory.
2.
This compartment can hold up 3
complete releases of the ice-tray. To
remove the ice, simply lift and pull the
storage box that you will nd in the lower
part. This box is designed to be brought
wherever you wish. To make more ice,
repeat the process.
note: The cylinder can only hold one load at
a time. Before repeating the process, make
sure that the tray is empty.
note: The ice produced may vary in size.
cleaning the smart ll ice factory
When cleaning your Smart
Fill Ice Factory it is imperative that you only use
a soft sponge with water and a neutral soap. Afterwards, leave it to dry.
DO NOT use a steel wool sponge or detergent to clean the SFIF (specially
the ice-bucket), as this could affect how it works, change how it looks, and
affect the avour of your ice cubes.
cleaning the cylinder
Only use a soft sponge with water and a neutral soap to clean.
Afterwards,
leave it to dry. Don’t use steel wool sponges or detergents, knives or forks
as these could scratch or damage the central valve. If there’s frozen water
inside the cylinder, let it melt or use tepid water to speed up the process.
important:
When removing the ice cubes, pull
the handle all the way down. You will feel resistance at this point, but you need to pull a little more
so that the ice-tray twists and releases the ice into
the lower compartment. Once this point has been
reached, the process is complete.

getting the most from your refrigerator
After Buying
Your Foodstuffs
After
getting home from the supermarket, refrigerate or freeze perishable
foods as soon as possible.
We recommend that you press the Power Cool button so that the food can
quickly reach a suitable temperature.
To make sure that liquids which may leak from meat packaging don’t contaminate other foods in your refrigerator, we recommend that you keep all
meat in the Meat Keeper provided with some models. If your model doesn’t
contain this feature, store your meat products in plastic bags.
How to Store
Your Food
• Store cooked food in closed containers and place them on a
shelf above where raw foodstuffs are being stored. This will avoid
contamination.
•
T
o prevent contamination between different foods we recommend
keeping food in lidded containers, wrapped up, or well-sealed using
aluminium foil, plastic wrap, or a lunch-box.
•
Do not store food in an open tin, transfer it into another container as
oxygen in the air could react with the metal and damage your health.
•
Ham, cold meats, and cheese should be kept in individual sealed bags
or airtight plastic containers.
•
Allow hot foods to cool somewhat before storing them inside small
containers in the refrigerator. You will save light and prevent other foods
in the refrigerator from being heated and thus adversely affected.
•
Make sure that jugs of avoured or natural water have secure lids to
prevent undesirable odours affecting them.
•
If you wish, store your fruit and vegetables in plastic bags in your
refrigerator drawers. This micro-environment will prevent different
gases from mixing and thus conserve your food for longer.
•
W
e recommend you don’t wash fruit and vegetables before storing
them in the refrigerator, as doing so could damage the skin and
increase decomposition rate. If they are very dirty, keep them in
a plastic bag so that they don’t
taint the other foods stored in the
compartment.
•
W
e recommend the refrigeration
of eggs. Don’t wash them before
storing, as this could damage their
natural protective layer, and thus
contaminate the interior of the egg.
Keep them in their protective carton,
with the air pocket facing upwards
(the thick part). Wash them just
before use to avoid contaminating the
food you’re preparing. For the same
reason, abide by the use-by date.
Fruit and garden produce
which should not be mixed.
To avoid undesired avours
and odours be aware of the
following information:
Cabbage, celery, carrots, gs,
and potatoes absorb apple and
pear
odours.
Figs and grapes absorb turnip
odours.
Mushrooms and gs absorb
onion odours.
Page 28
28
• If you need additional space to store
your vegetables, the following fruits
and garden produce can be kept on
the higher shelves as they are more
cold-resistant: artichoke, broccoli,
peas, spinach, cabbage, leek,
turnip, spring onions, and parsley.
To prevent them from drying out and
their aromas from mixing put them in
plastic bags.
• Don’t keep garlic in the refrigerator
as the cold and darkness promote
germination.
• With other models it is recommended
that you keep milk near an airway.
However, with our air ow system
you can store it on the refrigerator
door shelves as the air is distributed
evenly throughout.
• Sodas and beers keep perfectly on the upper door shelves, where they
are easily accessible and exposed to the cold quickly and directly.
• When putting in and taking out food and drink try not to leave the door
open too long. This will reduce your refrigerator’s energy consumption
and make it more efcient.
• When freezing food, prepare small portions and place them in such a
way that the air in the freezer can circulate around them. This will make
freezing time faster and ensure you use the entire portion.
• Always take heed of use-by dates on frozen food as indicated by the
manufacturer.
• Do not place sealed glass containers which have any liquids inside in
the freezer, as these could break and cause an accident.
• Products such as sorbet or pieces of ice should not be consumed at too
cold temperature.
• When putting a food item into the freezer try to avoid putting it on top of
or too close to an item that is already frozen.

solving problems
cleaning and servicing
your refrigerator
• Always disconnect your refrigerator
before any type of servicing.
•
Never use toxic products, abrasives,
or steel-wool sponges as these will
damage the surface of your product.
•
Use a soft sponge or damp cloth, and
a neutral soap to wash. Rinse the refrigerator, and dry it with a clean
and dry cloth. You can also use a solution of bicarbonate of soda (one
tablespoon dissolved in two litres of tepid water) to clean the inside.
•
Don’t use steel-wool sponges or sharp objects as these could scratch
the refrigerator or its shelves.
•
T
o make cleaning easier all our models come with high-resistance
glass shelves with anti-spill edges. These give you time to clean liquid
spillages before they spread.
•
Use a brush, cloth, or sponge to remove dust build-up from the
condenser. Try to do this at least once every 6 months.
heating of areas near the freezer
Y
our refrigerator comes with an anti-condensation
mechanism.
The heating of some areas external to your
refrigerator is normal. This happens to prevent
water droplets from condensing on the outside of
your refrigerator. However, if room temperature
and humidity are higher than usual, light
condensation may form. Dry with a cloth.
general precautions
• Don’t touch the inside of the freezer door with wet hands.
• Don’t let children hang from the doors or play near the refrigerator
when the door is open, as they may injure themselves, bang into it, or
get trapped.
•
Don’t let children hang from shelves or the Smart Station door
, as
excessive weight could break these.
•
Sometimes, it can cause trouble to reopen the refrigerator door
immediately after closing. This normal occurrence is a result of a
vacuum formation inside the refrigerator, caused by air at different
temperatures combining. Wait 10 to 15 seconds and the doors will
open easily once again.
Before throwing out your old refrigerator or freezer, take the following precuations to prevent the risk of a child entrapment.
•
T
ake off the doors
•
Leave the shelve
s in place so that children may not easily climb inside.
Page 30

holidays and absences
• For absences greater than a fortnight unplug your refrigerator
.
•
Leave your refrigerator
, including the ice-box, clean and empty.
•
Leave the door partly-opened, using something to block it from closing,
as this will facilitate ventilation and prevent bad odours from building up.
•
For
short absences you can leave your refrigerator plugged in. Remember
to save energy by activating the Holidays Function.
•
Remember that power outages can occur when you are not at home.
moving
important: If you have to lay the unit on its side for transportation
purposes, make sure to place it on its left-hand side (looking at the front of
the refrigerator).
Before moving your refrigerator from its place, make sure the levelling
screws are not touching the oor so that the wheels can freely move the
refrigerator.
important: After moving your refrigerator , follow the installation instructions
so that the refrigerant gas and the compressor oil can settle.
power outages
• The
majority of energy supply interruptions are corrected within a few
hours. Y our refrigerator’s interior temperature will not be affected within the
rst 4 hours. If the power outage persists for more than 6 hours, we suggest
placing bags of ice in both the cooler and the freezer to conserve the food.
•
A
void opening refrigerator doors.
•
If you notice variations in the voltage, we recommend that your turn of
f
and/or disconnect your refrigerator until the voltage returns to normal.
Increases and decreases in the light intensity from the bulbs indicate
these variations are occurring.
•
If
you model comes with the Power Cool, Holidays, and Express Chill Zone
functions, these will be deactivated (indicated by the lights switching off).
This won’t affect your refrigerator upon the power returning, but you will
have to reactivate these functions to continue using them.
