Pure Wind maximises air circulation, improving the efficiency of the

evaporator and helping to achieve the optimal temperature inside

the refrigerator as quickly as possible each time it has been

opened. The blown air (A) is cooled when it comes into contact with

the cold wall, whereas the hotter air (B) is sucked up ( see

diagram ).

The Pure Wind Plus products are also equipped with a filter which,

thanks to the inclusion of silver ions, makes it possible to reduce

bacteria by 70% and to eliminate odours inside the refrigerator unit,

thereby guaranteeing improved food storage.

If the TEMPERATURE ADJUSTMENT knob has been set on high

values with large quantities of food and with a high ambient

temperature, the appliance can operate continuously, resulting in

excessive frost formation and excessive energy consumption:

compensate for this by shifting the knob towards lower values

(defrosting will occur automatically).

Using the refrigerator to its full potential

• 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 ( see diagram ), allowing easy storage of large

containers and food. Height can be adjusted without complete

removal of the shelf.

Using the freezer to its full potential

• 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 above the grill in the freezer compartment and if possible

be in direct contact with the walls (side and rear), where the

temperature drops below -18°C and guarantees rapid freezing.

• Do not place glass bottles which contain liquids, and which are

corked or hermetically sealed in the freezer because they could

break.

• The maximum quantity of food that may be frozen daily is

indicated on the plate containing the technical properties located

on the bottom left side of the refrigerator compartment (for

example: Kg/24h: 4)

• The "Super Freezer" button enables intensive chilling so that the

desired temperature is reached quickly. Once the fresh food is

frozen, set the switch back to the OFF position.

WARNING: in order to save energy, make sure the function is

switched off after 24 hours.

! Do not open the door during freezing.

! If there is a power cut or malfunction, do not open the freezer

door. This will help maintain the temperature inside the freezer,

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

models.

ensuring that foods are conserved for at least 9 -14 hours.

! If the room temperature drops below 14°C for an extended period

of time, the ideal temperature will not be reached in the freezer

compartment and food preservation will be reduced.

Maintenance and care

Switching the appliance off

During cleaning and maintenance it is necessary to disconnect the

appliance from the electricity supply.

It is not sufficient to set the temperature adjustment knobs on

(appliance off) to eliminate all electrical contact.

Cleaning the appliance

• The external and internal parts, as well as the rubber seals may

be cleaned using a sponge that has been soaked in lukewarm

water and bicarbonate of soda or neutral soap. Do not use

solvents, abrasive products, bleach or ammonia.

• The removable accessories may be soaked in warm water and

soap or dishwashing liquid. Rinse and dry them carefully.

• The back of the appliance may collect dust which can be

removed by delicately using the hose of a vacuum cleaner set

on medium power. The appliance must be switched off and the

plug must be pulled out before cleaning the appliance.

Avoiding mould and unpleasant odours

• The appliance is manufactured with hygienic materials which are

odour free. In order to maintain an odour free refrigerator and to

prevent the formation of stains, food must always be covered or

sealed properly.

• If you want to switch the appliance off for an extended period of

time, clean the inside and leave the doors open.

Defrosting the appliance

! Follow the instructions below.

Do not speed up the defrosting process by using any devices or

tools other than the scraper provided, you may damage the

refrigeration circuit.

Defrosting the refrigerator compartment

The refrigerator has an automatic defrosting function: water is

ducted to the back of the appliance by a special discharge outlet

( see diagram ) where the heat produced by the compressor

causes it to evaporate. It is necessary to clean the discharge hole

regularly so that the water can flow out easily.

Defrosting the freezer compartment

If the frost layer is greater than 5 mm, it is necessary to defrost

manually:

1. Set the TEMPERATURE ADJUSTMENT knob to the position

2. Wrap frozen foods in newspaper and place them in another

freezer or in a cool place.
