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

! After transportation of the appliance, carefully place it in an upright

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

electricity mains, to make sure it operates as it should.

• Clean the inside of the refrigerator well using warm water and

bicarbonate of soda before placing food inside it.

• 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).

Freezer Compartment

When the product is switched on the freezer compartment is set

to its default value of -18°C. We recommend that the SUPER

FREEZE function is set (the freezer status bar continues to display

the set value) in order to accelerate the cooling process of the

compartment; when the inside of the compartment has reached

its optimal temperature the function will be deactivated and the

food may be placed inside.

Refrigerator Compartment

When the appliance is switched on the refrigerator compartment

is set to its default value of +5°C. We recommend that the SUPER

COOL function is set (the refrigerator status bar continues to display

the set value) in order to accelerate the cooling process of the

compartment. After a few hours it will be cool enough for food to

be placed inside.

Navigating the display

Setting the temperatures:

If the product is switched on, the refrigerator and freezer

compartment displays will indicate the temperature values set at

that moment. To change them, simply press the - and + buttons

corresponding to the compartment for which you wish to change

the set temperature. More specifically, each time the buttons are

pressed, the temperature increases or decreases and the level of

cold generated inside the compartment is adjusted accordingly.

The temperature values that may be selected for the refrigerator

compartment are +8°C, +7°C, +6°C, +5°C, +4°C, +3°C and +2°C,

while the values that may be set for the freezer are -18°C, -19°C, -

20°C, -21°C, -22°C, -24°C and -26°C.

When the “I-CARE” function is active, the appliance automatically

adjusts the temperatures according to the conditions inside and

outside the refrigerator, in order to minimise the amount of energy

consumed; the activation of this function is signalled by the I-CARE

LED on the keypad lighting up.

When the HOLIDAY function is active the temperature may not be

adjusted, however the appliance adjusts itself automatically so

that the optimal settings for the situation are used: +12°C for the

refrigerator compartment and -18°C for the freezer compartment.

The activation of this function is indicated by the HOLIDAY LED

lighting up.

To activate and deactivate the functions, simply press the relevant

button; the function status will be signalled by the corresponding

LED on the keypad switching on or off.

Several of the functions (SUPER COOL, SUPER FREEZE, ICE

PARTY, I-CARE) are incompatible with others (HOLIDAY,...);

remember that there is a pre-established order of priority which

will help you to operate the product in the best possible way.

When the ICE PARTY function has finished, press the ICE PARTY

button to stop the corresponding LED from flashing and to silence

the sound alert. The flashing and sound alerts indicate that the

function is complete and that the bottle should be removed from

the freezer compartment.

Child Lock

To activate the Child Lock function, press and hold the Child Lock

button for 2 sI-CAREnds; the activation of this button lock is

confirmed by a short beep and the illumination of the corresponding

LED on the keypad. To deactivate the function, press and hold

the Child Lock button for 2 sI-CAREnds; deactivation will be

confirmed by a short beep and by the corresponding LED switching

off.
