are recyclable.
Operation
Switching on
Insert the plug into the wall socket.
Turn the Temperature regulator clockwise to a medium setting.
Switching off
To turn off the appliance, turn the Temperature regulator to the "O" position.
Temperature regulation
The temperature is automatically regulated. To operate the appliance, proceed as follows:
•turn the Temperature regulator toward lower settings to obtain the minimum coldness.
•turn the Temperature regulator toward higher settings to obtain the maximum coldness.
A medium setting is generally the most suitable.
However, the exact setting should be chosen keeping in mind that the temperature inside the appliance depends on:
•room temperature
•how often the door is opened
•the quantity of food stored
•the location of the appliance.
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.
First use
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.
Important! Do not use detergents or abrasive powders, as these will damage the finish.
Daily use
Freezing fresh food
The freezer compartment is suitable for freezing fresh food and storing frozen and deep-frozen food for a long time. To freeze fresh foods it is not necessary to change the medium setting.
However, for a faster freezing operation, turn the temperature regulator toward higher settings to obtain the maximum coldness.
Important! In this condition, the refrigerator compartment temperature might drop below 0°C. If this occurs reset the temperature regulator to a warmer setting.
4
Place the fresh food to be frozen on the top compartment.
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 at least 2 hours on the higher settings.
Important! In the event of accidental defrosting, for example due to a power failure, if the power has been off for longer than the value shown in the technical characteristics chart under "rising time", the defrosted food must be consumed quickly or cooked immediately and then re-frozen (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.
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 placed at different heights.
Gradually pull the shelf in the direction of the arrows until it comes free, then reposition as required.
Removal of freezing baskets from the freezer
The freezing baskets have a limit stop to prevent their accidental removal or falling out. At the time of its removal from the freezer, pull the basket towards yourself and, upon reaching the end point, remove the basket by tilting its front upwards.
At the time of putting it back, slightly lift the front of the basket to insert it into the freezer. Once you are over the end points, push the baskets back in their position.
Helpful hints and tips
Normal Operating Sounds
•You may hear a faint gurgling and a bubbling sound when the refrigerant is pumped through the coils or tubing. This is correct.
•When the compressor is on, the refrigerant is being pumped around and you will hear a whirring sound and a pulsating noise from the compressor. This is correct.
•The thermic dilatation might cause a sudden cracking noise. It is natural, not dangerous physical phenomenon. This is correct.
•When the compressor switches on or switches off, you will hear a faint "click" of the temperature regulator. This is correct.
Hints for energy saving
•Do not open the door frequently or leave it open longer than absolutely necessary.
5
•If the ambient temperature is high and the Temperature Regulator is set to low temperature and the appliance is fully loaded, the compressor may run continuously, causing frost or ice on the evaporator. If this happens, set the Temperature Regulator toward warmer settings to allow automatic defrosting and so a saving in electricity consumption.
Hints for 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 around it
Hints for refrigeration
Useful hints:
Meat (all types) : wrap in polythene bags and place on the glass shelf above the vegetable drawer.
For safety, store in this way only one or two days at the most.
Cooked foods, cold dishes, etc..: these should be covered and may be placed on any shelf.
Fruit and vegetables: these should be thoroughly cleaned and placed in the special drawer(s) provided.
Butter and cheese: these should be placed in special airtight containers or wrapped in aluminium foil or polythene bags to exclude as much air as possible.
Milk bottles: these should have a cap and should be stored in the bottle rack on the door.
Bananas, potatoes, onions and garlic, if not packed, must not be kept in the refrigerator.
Hints for freezing
To help you make the most of the freezing process, here are some important hints:
•the maximum quantity of food which can be frozen in 24 hrs. is shown on the rating plate;
Care and cleaning
•the freezing process takes 24 hours. No further food to be frozen should be added during this period;
•only freeze top quality, fresh and thoroughly cleaned, foodstuffs;
•prepare food in small portions to enable it to be rapidly and completely frozen and to make it possible subsequently to thaw only the quantity required;
•wrap up the food in aluminium foil or polythene and make sure that the packages are airtight;
•do not allow fresh, unfrozen food to touch food which is already frozen, thus avoiding a rise in temperature of the latter;
•lean foods store better and longer than fatty ones; salt reduces the storage life of food;
•water ices, if consumed immediately after removal from the freezer compartment, can possibly cause the skin to be freeze burnt;
•it is advisable to show the freezing in date on each individual pack to enable you to keep tab of the storage time.
Hints for storage of frozen food
To obtain the best performance from this appliance, you should:
•make sure that the commercially frozen foodstuffs were adequately stored by the retailer;
•be sure that frozen foodstuffs are transferred from the foodstore to the freezer in the shortest possible time;
•not open the door frequently or leave it open longer than absolutely necessary.
•Once defrosted, food deteriorates rapidly and cannot be refrozen.
•Do not exceed the storage period indicated by the food manufacturer.
Caution! Unplug the appliance before carrying out any maintenance operation.
This appliance contains hydrocarbons in its cooling unit; maintenance and recharging must therefore
only be carried out by authorized technicians.

Periodic cleaning
The equipment has to be cleaned regularly:
•clean the inside and accessories with lukewarm water and some neutral soap.
•regularly check the door seals and wipe clean to ensure they are clean and free from debris.
•rinse and dry thoroughly.
Important! Do not pull, move or damage any pipes and/ or cables inside the cabinet.
Never use detergents, abrasive powders, highly perfumed cleaning products or wax polishes to clean the interior as this will damage the surface and leave a strong odour.
Clean the condenser (black grill) and the compressor at the back of the appliance with a brush or a vacuum cleaner. This operation will improve the performance of the appliance and save electricity consumption.
Important! Take care of not to damage the cooling system.
Many proprietary kitchen surface cleaners contain chemicals that can attack/damage the plastics used in this appliance. For this reason it is recommended that the outer casing of this appliance is only cleaned with warm water with a little washing-up liquid added.
After cleaning, reconnect the equipment to the mains supply.
Defrosting of the refrigerator
Frost is automatically eliminated from the evaporator of the refrigerator compartment every time the motor compressor stops, during normal use. The defrost water drains out through a trough into a special container at the back of the appliance, over the motor compressor, where it evaporates.
It is important to periodically clean the defrost water drain hole in the middle of the refrigerator compartment channel to prevent the water overflowing and dripping onto the food inside. Use the special cleaner provided, which you will find already inserted into the drain hole.
Defrosting the freezer
A certain amount of frost will always form on the freezer shelves and around the top compartment.
Defrost the freezer when the frost layer reaches a thickness of about 3-5 mm.
To remove the frost, follow the instructions below:
•pull out the plug from the wall socket or switch off the appliance
•remove any stored food, wrap it in several layers of newspaper and put it in a cool place
•remove the freezer drawers
•put insulating material around the drawers, e.g. blankets or newspapers.
Defrosting can be accelerated by placing bowls with hot water (not boiling) inside the freezer.
•Loosen the drainage channel from its resting position, push it in according to the illustration and place it in the bottom freezer drawer where water can collect
•carefully scrape off the ice when it starts to thaw. Use a wood or a plastic scraper
•when all the ice has melted, clean and wipe the cabinet dry, then put the drainage channel back in place.
• switch on the cabinet and replace the frozen foodstuff. It is recommended to operate the appliance at the highest position of the thermostatic control for some hours so that it can reach the sufficient storing temperature as soon as possible.
Important! Never use sharp metal tools to scrape off frost from the evaporator as you could damage it. Do not use a mechanical device or any artificial means to speed up the thawing process other than those recommended by the manufacturer. A temperature rise of the frozen food packs, during defrosting, may shorten their safe storage life.
What to do if…
Caution! Before troubleshooting, disconnect the power supply.
Only a qualified electrician or competent person must do the troubleshooting that is not in this manual.

Fonctionnement
Mise en fonctionnement
Branchez l'appareil sur une prise murale.
Tournez le bouton du thermostat dans le sens des aiguilles d'une montre sur une position moyenne.
Mise à l'arrêt
Pour mettre à l'arrêt l'appareil, tournez le bouton du thermostat sur la position "0".
Réglage de la température
La température est réglée automatiquement.
Pour faire fonctionner l'appareil, procédez comme suit :
•tournez le bouton du thermostat vers le bas pour obtenir un réglage de froid minimum.
•tournez le bouton du thermostat vers le haut pour obtenir un réglage de froid maximum.
Une position moyenne est la plus indiquée.
Toutefois, le réglage doit être choisi en tenant compte du fait que la température à l'intérieur de l'appareil dépend de plusieurs facteurs :
•la température ambiante
•la fréquence d'ouverture de la porte
•la quantité de denrées stockées
•l'emplacement de l'appareil.
Important Si le thermostat est réglé sur la position de froid maximum, lorsque la température ambiante est élevée et que l'appareil est plein, il est possible que le compresseur fonctionne en régime continu. Dans ce cas, il y a un risque de formation excessive de givre sur la paroi postérieure à l'intérieur de l'appareil. Pour éviter cet inconvénient, placez le thermostat sur une température plus élevée de façon à permettre un dégivrage automatique et, par conséquent, des économies de courant.
Première utilisation
Nettoyage intérieur
Avant d'utiliser l'appareil pour la première fois, nettoyez l'intérieur et tous les accessoires internes avec de l'eau tiède savonneuse pour supprimer l'odeur caractéristique du "neuf" puis séchez soigneusement.
Important N'utilisez pas de produits abrasifs, poudre à récurer, éponge métallique pour ne pas abîmer la finition.

Utilisation quotidienne
Congélation d'aliments frais
Le compartiment congélateur est idéal pour congeler des denrées fraîches et conserver les aliments surgelés ou congelés pendant longtemps.
Pour congeler les denrées fraîches, il n'est pas nécessaire de modifier le réglage moyen.
Toutefois, pour une congélation plus rapide, tournez le bouton du thermostat vers le haut pour obtenir un réglage de froid maximum.
Important Dans ce cas, la température du compartiment réfrigérateur peut chuter au-dessous de 0°C. Si cela se produit, repositionnez le bouton du thermostat sur un réglage plus chaud.
Placez les denrées fraîches à congeler dans le compartiment supérieur.
Conservation des aliments congelés
À la mise en service ou après un arrêt prolongé, placez le thermostat sur la position Max pendant 2 heures environ, avant d'introduire les produits dans le compartiment.
Important En cas de dégivrage accidentel, dû par exemple à une panne de courant, si la panne doit se prolonger plus longtemps qu'il n'est indiqué à la rubrique "temps d'augmentation" dans la section Caractéristiques techniques, consommez les aliments décongelés le plus rapidement possible ou recongelez-les après les avoir cuits (une fois refroidis).
La décongélation
Les aliments surgelés ou congelés peuvent être décongelés dans le compartiment réfrigérateur ou à température ambiante, avant d'être utilisés, en fonction du temps disponible pour cette opération.
Les petites pièces peuvent même être cuites sans décongélation préalable : dans ce cas, la cuisson est plus longue.
Clayettes amovibles
Les parois du réfrigérateur sont équipées d'une série de glissières pour que les clayettes puissent être placées en fonction des besoins.
Emplacement des balconnets de la porte
En fonction de la taille des paquets d'aliments conservés, les balconnets de la porte peuvent être positionnés à différentes hauteurs.
Tirez progressivement le balconnet dans le sens des flèches pour le dégager, puis repositionnez-le selon les besoins.
Retrait des paniers de congélation du congélateur
Les paniers de congélation sont équipés d'un arrêt afin d'empêcher leur retrait accidentel ou chute. Pour retirer le panier du congélateur, tirez-le vers vous et en atteignant l'arrêt, retirez-le en inclinant la partie avant vers le haut. Pour le remettre, relevez légèrement l'avant du panier et insérez-le dans le congélateur. Une fois que vous avez dépassé les butées d'arrêt, poussez les paniers dans la bonne position.
