Periodically clean the appliance with a new cloth and a solution of lukewarm water and neutral detergent
specific for cleaning the inside of the refrigerator. Never use abrasive detergents.
Do not use steam cleaners. Clean the condenser using a vacuum cleaner, after removing the front plinth
(see Installation manual).
The buttons and control panel display (in some models, located on the freezer door) must not be cleaned
with alcohol or alcohol-derived substances, but with a dry cloth.

Replacing the bulbs
Important:

• Always disconnect the refrigerator from the power supply before
replacing any light bulbs.

• Before replacing the bulb, remove the lamp cover (if present). After
the bulb has been replaced, refit the lamp cover.

• Internal lights are bayonet bulbs.

• The ice and water dispenser light, if present, is a normal screw bulb.

Only use bulbs of the same type which can be requested from the After­sales Service and authorized dealers.

APPLIANCE MAINTENANCE AND
CLEANING

When the appliance is connected to the power supply, the display will show the factory preset
temperatures (-18°C and +5°C).
If the acoustic signal sounds and the temperature indicator blinks, press and hold the alarm mute button.
Note: After being switched on, the appliance needs approximately 2/3 hours to reach the correct
temperature to store a typical volume of food.

As applicable, insert the anti-bacterial and anti-odour filter as indicated on the filter package.

FIRST USE

Disconnect the appliance from the power supply. Empty the appliance and leave the doors open just
enough to allow air to circulate inside the compartments. This will prevent the formation of mould and
bad odours. If your appliance has an automatic ice maker:

1. Shut off the water supply to the product.

2. Empty the ice bucket.

DURING BLACKOUTS

For power failures lasting up to 12 hours, keep the doors of the appliance closed. In this way the stored
food will stay cold as long as possible.
Should the power failure last more than 12 hours, remove all food from the product and store it in a
suitable appliance.

WHEN THE APPLIANCE IS NOT USED

10

For connection to the mains water supply see the Installation manual.

To dispense water:

Water delivery is always available. Press a glass against the water dispenser lever. Water delivery stops
when the lever is released.

To dispense ice:

To obtain ice press against the ice dispenser lever.

Useful tips:

1. Keep the glass near the water/ice dispenser outlet.

2. Press lightly on the lever to activate the ice dispenser. Pressing hard will not result in faster dispensing
or greater quantities.

3. To stop dispensing, remove the glass slowly so that ice does not fall outside the glass.

4. Do not use fragile glasses.

5. It is recommended to consume dispensed water within 6 hours.

6. If the water/ice dispenser has been used only occasionally or has not been used for some time, but the
appliance has been left on, it is advisable to clean the circuit, eliminating the first 2 litres of water and
the first ice produced. This operation should also be performed when the product is reconnected to the
power supply after prolonged disuse.

The anti-condensation devices can be disabled by pressing the switch
shown in the figure on the right (switch in position OFF). This allows
you to optimise energy consumption.
If there is condensation in the ice/water dispenser area or on the
door, reactivate the anti-condensation devices (switch in position
ON).

USING THE ICE AND WATER DISPENSER

(where provided)

Failure to follow the instructions regarding sanitizing can compromise the hygienic safety of the
water dispensed.

• When using the appliance for the first time, discard the first 9-14 litres of water, equivalent to 6-7
minutes of dispensing (not necessarily consecutive, but before initial consumption) and discard the ice
produced in the first 24 hours.

• Reposition the removable water dispenser (if present), ensuring your hands are hygienically clean.

• Periodically clean the ice bucket or drawer under running water only.

• Every six months, sanitise the water and ice dispensing system with disinfectant solutions (sodium
hypochlorite based) suitable for materials in contact with food and which do not alter the characteristics
of the materials. Rinse under running water before use.

• Replacement of any parts of the ice and water dispenser must be carried out using original spare parts
provided by the Manufacturer.

• Any work on the appliance must be carried out by a qualified technician or the After-sales Service.
