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.

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 food activate the Fast Freezing function at
least 24 hours before placing the food to be frozen in the
freezer compartment.
Place the fresh food to be frozen in the bottom compart­ment.
The maximum amount of food that can be frozen in 24
hours is specified on the rating plate, a label located on
the inside of the fridge.
The freezing process lasts 24 hours: during this period do
not add other food to be frozen.
After 24 hours, when the freezing process is completed,
deactivate the Fast Freezing function (see "Fast Freezing
function").

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).

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

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.

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.

Water dispenser cleaning procedure

1. Unblock the two stopping elements on the sides of
the tank as shown in the pictures:

– press the stopping elements in the middle and

move it up

– move the stopper into direction of the central tank.

2. Push up the tank along the direction of the valve.

3. Remove the lid.

4. Unscrew the valve in counter clockwise (pay particu­lar attention not to lose the valve gasket because is
necessary to a correct functioning of the features).

5. Clean the tank and the tank lid, the valve and the gas­ket with a solution of warm water and neutral soap.
Rinse the valve first and put it inside the door hole

during the cleaning of the other components (in order
to avoid cold air leakage from the fridge).

6. After the tank components cleaning take back the
valve from the fridge door and assembly the tank in
the inverse order (4;3;2;1) of disassembly (pay atten­tion at the valve gasket positioning).

7. Put the assembled tank on the door along the valve
direction.

8. Block the stopping elements in the inverse order of
unblock.

How to use the EasyWater dispenser

To fill the tank with cold
water, simply take a jug of
tap water and pour it in­side the tank through the
filler hole on the lid.

Important! In order to
avoid risk of spillage of
water during closing and
opening of the refrigerator,
do not fill the water tank
above the maximum fill
level indication printed
within the tank.

• Use only drinking water. The use of any other drink
type can leave residue, taste or odour in the reservoir
and in the dispenser.

• It is possible to hear some noises caused by air enter­ing when the water left the reservoir.

• In case the water does not flow well, press the water
lever once again. Keep the glass below the dispenser
for some instants, in order to assure that all the water
is collected by the glass.

• Do not use gasified drinks, such as soft drinks. The
drink can leak due to the gas pressure.

• Remember that water is a foodstuff. Please consume
water within one to two days.

• The water dispenser is designed for use only with mu­nicipally treated tap water (note: this water is constantly
controlled and according to legal regulations safe to
drink) or with water from private supplies which has
been tested safe to drink.
If an instruction is received from the authorities that
mains water must be boiled, the water has also to be
boiled.

• Since no filtration mean is included in the water dis­penser, it would be possible to have residual (e.g.
limestone) inside the tank and the valve after certain
amount of time. If this would be the case, clean the de­vices with a bland solution of warm water and citric
acid or water and lemon juice, rinse them and reas­semble them in the fridge door.

If you have not used all water in the water tank within 1-2
days, please discard any water left inside the unit before
refilling it.

Important information

• The fridge door valve hole must be closed with the
valve and the gasket during the regular functioning of
the appliance.

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.

Downloaded from Fridge-Manual.com Manuals

• The thermic dilatation might cause a sudden cracking
noise. It is natural, not dangerous physical phenomen­on. This is correct.

Hints for energy saving

• Do not open the door frequently or leave it open longer
than absolutely necessary.

9

• 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;

• 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.

Care and cleaning

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 chemi-

cals 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

What to do if…

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 of the freezer

The freezer compartment of this model, on the other hand,
is a "no frost" type. This means that there is no buildup of
frost when it is in operation, neither on the internal walls
nor on the foods.
The absence of frost is due to the continuous circulation
of cold air inside the compartment, driven by an automati­cally controlled fan.

Caution! Before troubleshooting, disconnect the

power supply.
Only a qualified electrician or competent person must do
the troubleshooting that is not in this manual.

Ambient temperature

Location

The appliance should be installed well away from sources
of heat such as radiators, boilers, direct sunlight etc. En­sure that air can circulate freely around the back of the
cabinet. To ensure best performance, if the appliance is
positioned below an overhanging wall unit, the minimum
distance between the top of the cabinet and the wall unit
must be at least 100 mm . Ideally, however, the appliance
should not be positioned below overhanging wall units.
Accurate levelling is ensured by one or more adjustable
feet at the base of the cabinet.

Warning! It must be possible to disconnect the
appliance from the mains power supply; the plug

must therefore be easily accessible after installation.
