The Dynamic Refrigeration System give, in the fridge compartment, extra efficiency showed in:
• Quicker refrigeration.
• More homogeneous temperature.
DAC has been mainly designed for hot weat­her (ambient temperature above 25°), also when the refrigerator is plenty of food and in wet environment (if frost accumulation is noti­ced on the back side of the fridge compart­ment). To start working, push the switch. When DAC is switched on, the cold production is higher, thus you should turn the temperatu­re regulator to an adequate position to avoid excesive cold.

1... Push the «SUPERFROST» button. The yellow lamp «e» will light up.
• If the freezer was switched off and empty, 3
hours prior to placing the food to be frozen.
• If the freezer is already operating and contains
frozen food, 24 hours before placing the food to be frozen.
2... The maximum amount which can be frozen in 24 hours is indicated in the section «Technical Features».
3... Place the food to be frozen inside the lower com­partment of the freezer. If necessary, the highest capacity of freezing is reached removing the lower basket.
4... Red light «h», may be on for a few hours during freezing process. Switch-on time for this light will vary according to amount of food being put in for congelation and time while door remains open.
5... 24 hours after the food in the freezer, the freezing process can be regarded as complete.
6... Push the «SUPERFROST» button. The yellow lamp «e» will go out.

Do not introduce any new food during a fre­ezing period.
Do not put any newly introduced food for freezing near to already frozen food.
Wrap the food up properly or place it in her­methic recipies before introducing it into the freezer.
Do not introduce any hot food into the freezer.
Food and drinks of a strong flavour may pass this on to others and affect their fla­vour. Wrap them up adequately or put them into tight closing bags.
Follow the instructions given in the cook books, freezing books and wrapping utensi­les for better conservation of food.
Keeping frozen food
For optimum consevation, the temperature inside the freezer compartment must be at least -18°C. This temperature is adjusted automatically. Check that the «Temperature Control» is in a middle posi- tion. Sometimes it may be necessary (insufficient ventilation, high roon temperature, frequent opening and closing of the door…) to change the position of the «Temperature Control». If the appliance should be accidentally switched off by a fault or power cut, take the following precautions:
• Keep the doors closed at all times.
• Find out how long the stoppage is expected to last.
Once normal power is restored:
A) If the freezer is full and the stoppage has been less than
«Time for temperature Rise» indicated for each model in the «Technical Features» section, then no damage will have been caused to the food.
B) If the freezer is not full, the cold will be lost more quickly. If
the food has not started to thaw, then follow the instructions in «A».
C) If the food has begun to thaw, use them up as
quickly as possible, or cook them and refreeze them.
Refrigerator Compartment:
This compartment is for storing drinks and fresh food products. The temperature inside is very evenly distributed. Make sure food does not touch the back wall, since
behind this surface is where the cold is generated and food could bee partially frozen. Also, this can impede the circulation of cold air. This appliance is provided with an automatic defrosting system. Consequently you will sometimes notice a thin layer of ice or drops of water on the rear

The inner walls of the freezer become gradually covered with a layer of frost keeping in mind not to open the door frequently and keeping the food wrapped up in closed bags. Whenever the thickness of ice reaches 5 mm. the frost should be removed. Here to proceed as follows:
1... Remove all food staffand place it in the coolest
possible place..
2…Place the Plastic Scraper (supplied with the
appliance) into the existing slot above the plinth.
3…Place a bowl under the outlet to collect the
water.
4…Pull out the drawers and the upper tray.
5…Under no circumstances should you try and
tear off the ice formed, wait for it to melt away.
6…Once the ice eliminated and the applience is
clean and dry, remove the plastic scraper and replace the drawers and the upper tray.
7…Plug in the appliance.

Frost is automatically eliminated in the refrigera­tor. Clean regularly the water drain opening «G».
CClleeaanniinngg
Do not use alcohol or any cleanig product con-
taining alcohol because it can damage the cabi­net.
• Use lukewarm water and neutral soap or bicar­bonate of soda for cleaning the interior and the exterior of the appliance. Never use detergents nor abrasive powders.
• Clean the black grill on the read of the applian­ce (condeser), motor and the upper and downer ventilation slots with a brush or vacuum cleaner. This way the performance of the appliance will improve and energy consumption reduced.
• Clean the water container above the motor.
• In order to remove the shelve over the vegeta­ble drawer (some models only), first of all pull out the security flanges as shows in the draw (see fig. 13). Once it has been put back, return the flanges to the original position.

During periods when the appliance is not in use take the following precautions:
• Unplug the appliance.
• Remove all the food.
• Defrost and clean the interior and all accesso­ries.
• Leave the door ajar to permit the air to circulate in the interior and thus avoid unpleasant smells.
