Temperature indicators
The temperature indicators show several information:
• During normal operation, the temperature currently present in the fridge (ACTUAL tem-
perature) is displayed.
• In the freezer the warmest temperature is displayed (ACTUAL temperature). When fully
filled, the warmest zone is normally located at the top in the front area of the freezer.
Depending upon how the section is filled, the temperatures are lower in other areas of
the freezer.
• When the temperature is being adjusted a flashing display indicates the fridge temper-
ature currently set (DESIRED temperature).
When changing the temperature setting wait about 24 hours until the temperature display
has stabilised.
If there is a fault in the appliance the temperature indicator shows:
• a square or a letter in the temperature indicator of the fridge for a fault in the fridge
• a square or a letter in the temperature indicator of the freezer for a fault in the freezer.
Temperature regulation
To operate the appliance, proceed as follows:
1. Set the required temperature by pressing the corresponding temperature regulator. The
temperature indicator will immediately show the changed setting (DESIRED tempera-
ture) and the temperature indicator flashes.
2. Each time the temperature regulator is pressed the DESIRED temperature is adjusted
by 1 °C. The DESIRED temperature must be reached within 24 hours.
3. Once the required temperature has been set, after a short period (approx. 5 sec.) the
temperature indicator will show again the current ACTUAL temperature inside the cor-
6Control panel

responding compartment. The temperature indicator will change from flashing to con-
tinuous illumination.
For a correct storage of the food the following temperatures should be set:
• +5 °C in the fridge
• -18 °C in the freezer.
When the setting is changed, the compressor does not start immediately if automatic
defrosting is currently taking place. As the storage temperature within the fridge is reached
quickly you can store food immediately after switching on.

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.
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.
In this condition, the refrigerator compartment temperature might drop below 0°C. If this
occurs reset the temperature regulator to a warmer setting.
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.
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).
8First use

Thawing
Deep-frozen or frozen food, prior to being used, can be thawed in the refrigerator com-
partment 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 posi-
tioned as desired.
Bottle rack
Place the bottles (with the opening facing front)
in the pre-positioned shelf.
If the shelf is positioned horizontally, place only
closed bottles.
This bottle holder shelf can be tilted in order to
store previously opened bottles. To obtain this re-
sult, pull the shelf up so it can rotate upwards and
be placed on the next higher level.
Daily use 9

Vegetable Drawer
The drawer is suitable for storing fruit and vege-
tables.
There is a separator inside the drawer that can be
placed in different positions to allow for the sub-
division best suited to personal needs.
There is a grille (if foreseen) on the bottom of the
drawer to separate the fruit and vegetables from
any humidity that may form on the bottom sur-
face.
All parts inside the drawer can be removed for
cleaning purposes
Positioning the door shelves
To permit storage of food packages of vari-
ous sizes, the door shelves can be placed at
different heights.
To make these adjustments proceed as fol-
lows:
gradually pull the shelf in the direction of the
arrows until it comes free, then reposition as
required.

exceeds 25°C.
Chiller Zone
The Chiller Zone compartment is suitable for storing fresh food like fish, meat, seafood,
because the temperature is lower here than in the rest of the fridge. It is placed in the lower
part of the refrigerator, directly above of the vegetable drawer.
If you wish to remove the Chiller Zone compart-
ment, do these steps:
1. Open the door of the refrigerator as wide as
possible. If you cannot open the door at an
angle of 180° because of a limit stop or any
other objects , remove the bottle shelf from
the door.

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.
Hints for energy saving
• Do not open the door frequently or leave it open longer than absolutely necessary.
• If the ambient temperature is high and the Temperature Regulator is set to low tem-
perature 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
12 Helpful hints and tips

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 re-
tailer;
• 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.
Care and cleaning 13

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.
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.
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 over-
flowing and dripping onto the food inside. Use the
special cleaner provided, which you will find al-
ready inserted into the drain hole.
14 Care and cleaning

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.
