the ambient temperature, frequency of opening the
doors, as well as location of the appliance. Temperature
setting must consider these factors.

- The appliance accessories are not suitable for washing

dishwasher.

compartment door closes properly.

TO INCREASE STORAGE

The freezer compartment can be used without the
baskets to increase storage and for large products.
You can place the food products directly on the racks.

HYDROSENSE SHELVES
(depending on the model)

The special contour of the HydroSense shelves creates a
barrier that contain spills and simplifies cleanup,
preventing liquids from leaking onto shelves below.

HOW TO START THE APPLIANCE FIRST
TIME

After plugging the appliance to the mains, it starts the
operation automatically.
After starting the appliance, wait at least 4-6 hours before
placing food into the appliance.
When the appliance is connected to the power supply, the
display lights up and all the icons appear on the display for
few seconds.
The default (factory) values of the freezer compartment
and refrigerator compartment settings light-up.

FAN WITH A BUTTON

The fan improves temperature distribution inside the
refrigerator compartment, allowing better preservation
of stored food.
By default, the fan is ACTIVE.
It is advisable to keep the fan active, so that the "6th

Sense Fresh Control" / "Green Intelligence ProFresh"

function can work properly and also when the ambient
air temperature is above 27 ÷ 28°C or if you perceive
drops of water on the glass shelves or in the severe
humidity conditions.

Note:
Do not obstruct the air intake area with food items.

To guarantee the right performance at lower ambient
temperature (colder than 18°C) and to minimize Energy
Consumption, turn off the fan.
To turn off the fan press the button (2a).

If the appliance has the fan it can be equipped with the
antibacterial filter.
Remove it from the box (found in the crisper drawer
(item 8) and insert into the cover of fan (item 2b).
The replacement procedure is attached with the filter.

“ZERO DEGREES” BOX
(depending on the model)

The "Zero Degrees" box is specifically designed to maintain a
low temperature and a suitable humidity level, in order to
keep foods fresher for longer (e.g. meat, fish, fruit and winter
vegetables).

Activating and deactivating the box

The temperature inside the box, when active, is
approximately 0°. The following factors are vital for the
"Zero Degrees" box to work properly:

- the refrigerator compartment must be switched on

- the temperature of the refrigerator compartment must be

between +2°C and +5°C

- the box must be inserted to enable activation

- no special functions must have been selected (Standby,

Cooling-Off, Vacation – where applicable).
If one of these special functions has been selected, the "Zero
Degrees" box must be deactivated manually, and any fresh
food inside it removed. If manual deactivation does not take
place, the box will be deactivated automatically after 8 hours.

Note:

- if the symbol does not light up when the box is activated,
check that the box is properly inserted; if the problem
persists, contact your nearest authorized After-sales
Service

- if the box is active and the drawer open, the symbol on
the control panel may be deactivated automatically. If the
drawer is inserted, the symbol will become active again

- irrespective of the state of the box, a slight noise may be
heard: this is normal and is not a cause for concern.

- when the box is not active, the temperature inside it
depends on the general temperature inside the
refrigerator compartment.

In this case, we recommend it is used to store fruit and
vegetables which are not sensitive to cold temperatures
(fruits of the forest, apples, apricots, carrots, spinach, lettuce,
etc.).
Important: when the function is activated and there are
foodstuffs with a high water content, condensation may form
on shelves. In this case, disable the function temporarily.

Removing the "Zero Degrees" box:

The "Zero Degrees" box can be
removed to create more space
inside the refrigerator. In this case
proceed as follows:

- switch off the box

- pull out the drawer and the
white plastic shelf underneath
the box.

Note: the upper shelf and the side supports cannot be
removed.
To restore "Zero Degrees" box operation, make sure you
replace the white plastic shelf underneath the box before
inserting the drawer and reactivating the function. To
optimise energy consumption, we recommend you
deactivate the "Zero Degrees" box and remove it. Clean the
box and all its parts regularly, using a cloth and a solution of
warm water and neutral detergent specifically formulated for
refrigerator interiors (take care not to immerse the white
plastic shelf underneath the box in water).

Before cleaning the box (including the outside),
remove the drawer so as to disconnect the box from
the electricity supply.

Never use abrasive detergents.
