Start-up and use

Starting the appliance

! Before starting the appliance, follow the installation

instructions (

see Installation

! Before connecting the appliance, clean the compartments and

accessories well with lukewarm water and bicarbonate.

! The appliance comes with a motor protection control system

which makes the compressor start approximately 8 minutes after

being switched on. The compressor also starts each time the power

supply is cut off whether voluntarily or involuntarily (blackout).

1. Set the FREEZER OPERATION knob on .

2. Insert the plug into the socket and ensure that the green POWER

indicator light illuminates.

3. Turn the REFRIGERATOR OPERATION knob to an average

value. After a few hours you will be able to put food in the

refrigerator.

4. Turn the FREEZER OPERATION knob to an average value and

press the SUPER FREEZE button (rapid freezing): the SUPER

FREEZE indicator light will illuminate. Once the refrigerator has

reached the optimal temperature, the indicator light goes out

and you can begin food storage.

Chiller system

No Frost

The No Frost system circulates cold air continuously to collect

humidity and prevent ice and frost formation. The system maintains

an optimal humidity level in the compartment, preserving the original

quality of the food, preventing the food from sticking together and

making defrosting a thing of the past. Do not block the aeration

cells by placing food or containers in direct contact with the

refrigerating back panel. Close bottles and wrap food tightly.

Using the refrigerator to its full potential

• Place only cold or lukewarm foods in the compartment, never

hot foods (see Precautions and tips).

• Remember that cooked foods do not last longer than raw foods.

• Do not store liquids in open containers: they will increase the level

of humidity in the refrigerator and cause condensation to form.

SHELVES: with or without grill.

Due to the special guides the shelves are removable and the height

is adjustable (see diagram), allowing easy storage of large

containers and food. Height can be adjusted without complete

removal of the shelf.

TEMPERATURE Indicator light*: to identify the coldest area in

the refrigerator.

1. Check that OK appears clearly on the indicator light (see

diagram).

2. If the word “OK” does not appear it means that the temperature

is too high: adjust the REFRIGERATOR OPERATION knob to a

higher position (colder) and wait approximately 10 hours until

the temperature has been stabilised.

3. Check the indicator light again: if necessary, readjust it following

the initial process. If large quantities of food have been added or

if the refrigerator door has been opened frequently, it is normal for

the indicator not to show OK. Wait at least 10 hours before adjusting

the REFRIGERATOR OPERATION knob to a higher setting.

Food Care Zone

Area dedicated to the storage of fresh food, such as meat and

fish. Thanks to the low temperature inside the compartment, the

Food Care Zone extends the period of time for which the food can

be stored, keeping it fresh for up to a week.

Dual led

Thanks to the powerful light it emits, the new dual LED lighting system

offers a clear view of all foods, with no shadowy areas.

If the LEDs need to be replaced, please contact the Technical

Assistance Service.

Using the freezer to its full potential

• Use the FREEZER OPERATION knob to adjust the temperature

(

see Description

• Do not re-freeze food that is defrosting or that has already been

defrosted. These foods must be cooked and eaten (within 24

hours).

• Fresh food that needs to be frozen must not come into contact

with food that has already been defrosted. Fresh food must be

stored in the top FREEZER and STORAGE compartment where

the temperature drops below -18°C and guarantees rapid

freezing.

• To freeze fresh food in the best and safest way possible, activate

the SUPER FREEZE function 24 hours before placing the food

in the freezer. After placing the food inside, activate the SUPER

FREEZE function again; it will be deactivated automatically after

24 hours;

* Varies by number and/or position, available only on certain models.
