Installation

! Before placing your new appliance into operation please read these

operating instructions carefully. They contain important information for

safe use, for installation and for care of the appliance.

! Please keep these operating instructions for future reference.

Pass them on to possible new owners of the appliance.

Positioning and connection

Positioning

1. Place the appliance in a well-ventilated humidity-free room.

2. Do not obstruct the rear fan grills. The compressor and

condenser give off heat and require good ventilation to

operate correctly and save energy.

3. Leave a space of at least 10 cm between the top part of the

appliance and any furniture above it, and at least 5 cm

between the sides and any furniture/side walls.

4. Ensure the appliance is away from any sources of heat (direct

sunlight, electric stove, etc.).

5. In order to maintain the correct distance between the

appliance and the wall behind it, fit the spacers supplied in

the installation kit, following the instructions provided.

Levelling

1. Install the appliance on a level and rigid floor.

2. If the floor is not perfectly horizontal, adjust the refrigerator by

tightening or loosening the front feet.

Electrical connections

After the appliance has been transported, carefully place it

vertically and wait at least 3 hours before connecting it to the

electricity mains. Before inserting the plug into the electrical

socket ensure the following:

• The appliance is earthed and the plug is compliant with the law.

• The socket can withstand the maximum power of the

appliance, which is indicated on the data plate located on the

bottom left side of the fridge (e.g. 150 W).

• The voltage must be in the range between the values

indicated on the data plate located on the bottom left side

(e.g. 220-240V).

• The socket is compatible with the plug of the appliance. If the

socket is incompatible with the plug, ask an authorised

technician to replace it ( see Assistance ). Do not use

extension cords or multiple sockets.

! Once the appliance has been installed, the power supply cable

and the electrical socket must be easily accessible.

! The cable must not be bent or compressed.

! The cable must be checked regularly and replaced by

authorised technicians only (see Assistance).

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

• Use the REFRIGERATOR OPERATION knob to adjust the

temperature ( see Description ).

• Press the SUPER COOL button (rapid cooling) to lower the

temperature quickly. For example, when you place a large number

of new food items inside a fridge the internal temperature will rise

slightly. The function quickly cools the groceries by temporarily

reducing the temperature until it reaches the ideal level.

• Place only cold or lukewarm foods in the compartment, not

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

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, allowing

easy storage of large containers and food. Height can be

adjusted without complete removal of the shelf.

FRUIT and VEGETABLE bin

The salad crispers fitted inside the fridge have been specially

designed for the purpose of keeping fruit and vegetables fresh

and crisp. Open the humidity regulator (position B) if you want to

store food in a less humid environment, or close it (position A) to

store food in a more humid environment.
