WARNINGS

It is most important that this instruction book should be retained with the appliance for future refer­ence. Should the appliance be sold or transferred to another owner, or should you move house and
leave the appliance, always ensure that the book is supplied with the appliance in order that the new
owner can be acquainted with the functioning of the appliance and the relevant warnings.

If this appliance featuring magnetic door seals is to replace an older appliance having a spring lock
(latch) on the door or lid, be sure to make that spring lock unusable before you discard the old appli­ance. This will prevent it from becoming a death-trap for a child.

These warnings are provided in the interest of safety. You must read them carefully before installing
or using the appliance.

General Safety

• This appliance is designed to be operated by
adults. Children should not be allowed to tamper
with the controls or play with the product.

• It is dangerous to alter the specifications or mod­ify this product in any way.

• Before any cleaning or maintenance work is car­ried out, be sure to switch off and unplug the appli­ance.

• This appliance is heavy. Care should be taken
when moving it

Service/Repair

• Any electrical work required to install this appli­ance should be carried out by a qualified electri­cian or competent person

• This product should be serviced by an autho­rized Service Centre, and only genuine spare
parts should be used.

• Under no circumstances should you attempt to
repair the appliance yourself. Repairs carried out
by inexperienced persons may cause injury or

more serious malfunctioning. Refer to your local
Service Centre, and always insist on genuine
spare parts.

• This appliance contains hydrocarbons in its cool­ing unit; maintenance and recharging must
therefore only be carried out by authorized tech­nicians.

Use

• The domestic refrigerators and freezers are
designed to be used specifically for the storage
of edible foodstuffs only.

• Best performance is obtained with ambient tem­perature between +18°C and +43°C (class T);
+18°C and +38°C (class ST); +16°C and +32°C
(class N); +10°C and +32°C (class SN). The
class of your appliance is shown on its rating
plate.

Warning: when the ambient temperature is not
included within the range indicated for the class
of this appliance, the following instructions must
be observed: when the ambient temperature
drops below the minimum level, the storage tem­perature in the freezer compartment cannot be
guaranteed; therefore it is advisable to use the
food stored as soon as possible.

• Frozen food must not be re-frozen once it has
been thawed out.

• Manufacturers’ storage recommendations should
be strictly adhered to. Refer to relevant instruc­tions.

• The inner lining of the appliance consists of chan­nels through which the refrigerant passes. If these
should be punctured this would damage the appli­ance beyond repair and cause food loss. DO NOT
USE SHARP INSTRUMENTS to scrape off frost
or ice. Frost may be removed by using the
scraper provided. Under no circumstances should
solid ice be forced off the liner. Solid ice should be
allowed to thaw when defrosting the appliance.

• Do not place carbonated or fizzy drinks in the
freezer as it creates pressure on the container,
which may cause it to explode, resulting in
damage to the appliance. Do not use a
mechanical device or any artificial means to
speed up the thawing process other than those
recommended by the manufacturer. Never use
metal objects for cleaning your appliance as it
may get damaged.

Installation

• During normal operation, the condenser and
compressor at the back of the appliance heat up
considerably. For safety reasons, minimum
ventilation must be as shown in the instructions.

Attention: keep ventilation openings clear of
obstruction.

• Care must be taken to ensure that the appliance
does not stand on the electrical supply cable.

Important: if the supply cord is damaged, it must
be replaced by a special cord or assembly availa­ble from the manufacturer or its service agent.

• If the appliance is transported horizontally, it is
possible that the oil contained in the compressor
flows in the refrigerant circuit. It is advisable to
wait at least two hours before connecting the
appliance to allow the oil to flow back in the
compressor.

• There are working parts in this product which
heat up. Always ensure that there is adequate
ventilation as a failure to do this will result in
component failure and possible food loss. See
installation instructions.

• Parts which heat up should not be exposed.
Wherever possible the back of the product
should be against a wall.

Environment Protection

This appliance does not contain gasses which
could damage the ozone layer, in either its
refrigerant circuit or insulation materials. The
appliance shall not be discarded together with
the urban refuse and rubbish. Avoid damaging
the cooling unit, especially at the rear near the
heat exchanger. Information on your local
disposal sites may be obtained from municipal
authorities. The materials used on this appliance
marked by the symbol are recyclable.

Cleaning the interior

Before using the appliance for the first time, wash
the interior and all internal accessories with luke­warm water and some neutral soap so as to remove
the typical smell of a brand-new product, then dry
thoroughly.

Do not use detergents or abrasive
powders, as these will damage the finish.

USE

Operation

Insert the plug into the wall socket.

Open the refrigerator door and turn the thermostat
knob, clockwise, beyond the «O» (STOP) position.
The appliance will start to operate.

To stop operation, simply turn the thermostat knob to
position «O»

Temperature regulation

The temperature is automatically regulated and can
be increased to achieve a higher temperature
(warmer) by rotating the thermostat knob toward
lower settings or reduced (colder) rotating the knob
towards higher settings.

However, the exact setting should be chosen
keeping in mind that the temperature inside the
refrigerator depends on:

• room temperature;

• how often the door is opened;

• the quantity of food stored;

• location of appliance.

A medium setting is generally the most suitable.

Important

If the ambient temperature is high or the
appliance is fully loaded, and the appliance is
set to the lowest temperatures, it may run
continuously causing frost to form on the rear
wall. In this case the dial must be set to a higher
temperature to allow automatic defrosting and
therefore reduced energy consumption.

Freezing fresh food

The 4-star compartment is suitable for
long term storage of commercially frozen food, and
for freezing fresh food.
To freeze fresh foods it is not necessary to change
the setting of the thermostat knob with respect to the
normal running position.
However, for a quicker freezing operation, turn the
thermostat knob to the coldest setting; but
remember that, in this condition, the refrigerating
compartment temperature might drop below 0°C.
If this occurs reset thermostat knob to a warmer
setting.

Storage of frozen food

When first starting-up or after a period out of use,
before putting the products in the compartment let
the appliance run for at least two hours on the
coldest setting, then turn the thermostat knob to the
normal operating position.

Important

In the event of accidental defrosting, for example
due to a power failure, if the power has been off
for longer that the value shown in the technical
characteristics chart under “rising time”, the
defrosted food must be consumed quickly or
cooked immediately and then refrozen (after
cooling).

Thawing

Deep-frozen or frozen food, prior to being used, can
be thawed in the refrigerator compartment or at
room temperature, depending on the time available
for this operation.

Small pieces may even be cooked still frozen,
directly from the freezer: in this case, cooking will
take longer.

Ice-cube production

This appliance is equipped with one or more trays
for the production of ice-cubes. Fill these trays with
water, then put them in the freezer compartment.

Do not use metallic instruments to remove the
trays from the freezer.

Movable shelves

The walls of the refrigerator are equipped with a
series of runners so that the shelves can be
positioned as desired.

Positioning the door shelves

To permit storage of food packages of various sizes,
the door shelves can be adjusted in height.
To make these adjustments proceed as follows:
Gradually pull the shelf in the direction of the arrows
until it comes off, then reposition as required.

Fresh food refrigeration

To obtain the best performance:

• do not store warm food or evaporating liquids in
the refrigerator;

• do cover or wrap the food, particularly if it has a
strong flavour.

• Position food so that air can circulate freely round
it.

Air recycling

The refrigerator compartment is equipped with a
special D.A.C.(Dynamic Air Cooling) fan which can
be turned on with the switch ( see fig. 1). The green
light, when on, means that the fan is working.

It is suggested that the fan (D.A.C.) be used when
the ambient temperature exceeds 25°C .

It should be remembered that the thermostat knob

must be placed (see fig.2) within the sector .

This device allows for rapid cooling of foods and a
more uniform temperature in the compartment.
