SHELVES: with or without grill.
Due to the special guides the
shelves are remova le and the
height is adjusta le (see
diagram), allowing easy storage
of large containers and food.
Height can e adjusted without
complete removal of the shelf.
MULTI-USE in: to store food
(such as cold meats) for a long
time and also prevent odours
from lingering in the refrigerator.
It can e removed for use and it
may e shifted sideways to
optimise space (see diagram).
FRESH BOX: for fresh meat
and fish. Due to the
compartments low temperature
(the coldest in the refrigerator)
and to the clear door that
provides protection against
oxidation and lackening, food
can e stored for even up to one
week. It can also e used for
cold meals.
C N R CK shelf: stores cans
horizontally (see diagram).
Yoghurt, utter or general
containers may also e stored
here.
ODOUR FILTER: Some
models are fitted with a new
odour filter with active car ons,
which ensures etter air quality
inside the refrigerator.
The filter is located on the
ottom right-hand side, inside
the ventilation opening.
Freezer compartment
ICE tray
The fact that they are situated on the top part of the
freezer drawers ensures greater cleanliness: the ice no
longer comes into contact with the food placed inside the
freezer compartment; furthermore, the dripping of the
water during filling is avoided (a lid to cover up the hole
after filling with water is also provided).
1. Pull out the tray y pushing it up.
Check that the tray is ompletely empty and fill it with
water through the opening provided.
2. Take care not to exceed the level indicated (MAX
WATER LEVEL). Excess water prevents the ice cu es
from dispensing (if this happens, wait for the ice to melt
and empty the tray).
3. Turn the tray 90°: due to the connected compartments
each mould fills with water (see diagram).
4. Close the opening with the lid provided and put the tray
ack.
5. When the ice has formed (minimum time approximately
8 hours) knock the tray against a hard surface and wet
the outside so that the ice cu es come loose and take
them out through the opening.

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
lock the aeration cells y placing food or containers in
direct contact with the refrigerating ack panel. Close
ottles and wrap food tightly.
Using the refrigerator to its full potential
 Use the REFRIGERATOR OPERATION kno to adjust
the temperature (see Description).
 Place only cold or lukewarm foods in the compartment,
not hot foods (see Precautions and tips).
 Remem er 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.
Food hygiene
1. Once you have ought your food, remove all external
packaging made of paper/card oard or other
wrappers, which could introduce acteria or dirt inside
your refrigerator.
2. Protect the food, (especially easily perisha le items
and those that have a strong smell), in order to avoid
contact etween them, there y removing oth the
possi ility of germ/ acteria contamination as well as
the diffusion of strong odours inside the fridge.
3. Store all food in such a way as to ensure air can
circulate freely etween different items.
4. Keep the inside of your fridge clean, taking care not to
use oxidiser or a rasive products.
5. Remove all food past its expiry date from the
refrigerator.
6. For the correct preservation of food, all easily
perisha le items (soft cheeses, raw fish, meat, etc.)
should e stored in the coldest zone of the fridge
compartment, i.e. just a ove the salad crisper where
the temperature indicator is situated.

 In the case of a malfunction, under no circumstances
should you attempt to repair the appliance yourself.
Repairs carried out y inexperienced persons may cause
injury or further malfunctioning of the appliance.
 Do not use utensils other than the scraper provided, or
electrical equipment which is not of the type specified y
the manufacturer, inside the frozen food storage
compartments.
 Do not put ice cu es taken directly from the freezer into
your mouth.
 Do not allow children to tamper with the controls or play
with the appliance. Under no circumstance should they e
allowed to sit on the ins or to hang from the door.
 Keep packaging material out of the reach of children! It can
ecome a choking or suffocation hazard.
Disposal
 O serve local environmental standards when disposing
packaging material for recycling purposes.
 The European Directive 2002/96/EC on Waste Electrical
and Electronic Equipment (WEEE), requires that old
household electrical appliances must not e disposed of
in the normal unsorted municipal waste stream. Old
appliances must e collected separately in order to
optimise the recovery and recycling of the materials they
contain and reduce the impact on human health and the
environment. The crossed out wheeled in sym ol on
the product reminds you of your o ligation, that when
