BEFORE USING THE REFRIGERATOR
Your new appliance is a combined ventilated, no-frost
fridge-freezer exclusively for domestic use.
The great advantage of this appliance is that the
refrigerator and freezer compartments are ventilated,
therefore there is no ice or frost formation on the walls,
thanks to the process described below. The cold is
produced by an evaporator and distributed to the single
compartments by means of a fan.
The air, after circulating in the compartments, is
absorbed again by the evaporator, which also retains
any humidity in the air. This prevents frost from forming
on the compartment walls, as in traditional appliances,
therefore
The humidity absorbed by the evaporator is
transformed into water, which is automatically routed
to a container located on the compressor, from where
it evaporates. The ventilated refrigeration system
guarantees optimal food storage, maintaining the
original characteristics longer.
there is no need to defrost the appliance.
To get the most out of your new appliance, read the
user handbook thoroughly. The handbook contains a
description of the appliance and useful tips for storing
food.
Keep this handbook
1.After unpacking the appliance, check for damage and
make sure that the doors shut properly.
Any damage must be reported to your dealer within
24 hours after delivery of the appliance.
2.Wait at least two hours without moving the
appliance before switching on. This will give the
refrigerant circuit time to settle and operate
efficiently.
3.Installation of the appliance and electrical
connections must be carried out by a qualified
electrician, in accordance with the manufacturer's
instructions and local regulations.
for future consultation.

The appliance is made using recyclable materials.
Disposal must be carried out in accordance with local
environmental regulations for waste disposal.
Make the appliance unusable by cutting off the power
cord. The appliance must be delivered to an authorized
collection centre for the recovery of refrigerant gas.

PRECAUTIONS AND GENERAL
RECOMMENDATIONS
•
Use the
storing fresh food and beverages and use the freezer
compartment only for storing frozen food, freezing
fresh food and making ice cubes.
•
Do not cover or obstruct the air vents of the
appliance.
•
Do not store liquids in glass containers in the freezer
compartment - danger of bursting.
•
Do not eat ice cubes or ice lollies immediately after
taking them out of the freezer compartment - risk of
“cold” burns.
•
Do not allow children to play or hide inside the
appliance - risk of becoming trapped and suffocating.
•

• Before any cleaning or maintenance operatio n,
unplug the appliance from the mains or
disconnect the electrical power supply.
•
The power cable may only be replaced by an
authorised person.

Declaration of conformity
This appliance is intended to come into contact with
foodstuffs and conforms to D.L. 108 of 25.01.1992
(European Directive 89/109/EEC).
Information
Appliances with Isobutane (R600a).
Isobutane is a natural gas with low environmental
impact. Caution is required, however, since isobutane
is flammable. Therefore, it is essential to ensure that
refrigerant pipelines are not damaged.
HOW TO OPERATE THE REFRIGERATOR
COMPARTMENT
The refrigerator compartment is designed for the storage
of fresh food and beverages.
Defrosting of the refrigerator compartment is completely
automatic.
The refrigerator can operate at ambient temperatures between
+16°C and +38°C. Optimal performance is obtained at
temperatures between +16°C and +32°C.
Switching on the appliance
•
Plug in the appliance.
•
The appliance will switch on automatically.
•
The inside light switches on when the refrigerator door is
opened.
To adjust the temperature, follow the instructions in the
accompanying chart.
Important:
•
There is no need to adjust the thermostat knob as the
temperature is factory set to ensure the correct storage
temperature for fresh foods at ambient temperatures
between +20°C and +25°C.
•
After being switched on, the refrigerator needs approximately
2 hours to reach the correct temperature to store a typical
volume of food in the refrigerator compartment.
To switch off the appliance
•
In models without the “COOL” compartment, air distribution
in the lower part of the refrigerator can be adjusted by means
of the regulator
