TEMPERATURE* Indicator light: to identify the coldest area in the

refrigerator.

1. Check that OK appears clearly on the indicator light (

see

diagram

2. If the word “OK” does not appear it means that the temperature

is too high: adjust the REFRIGERATOR OPERATION knob to a

higher (colder) position and wait approximately 10 hours until

the temperature has stabilised.

3. Check the indicator light again: if necessary, readjust it following

the initial process. If large quantities of food have been added or

if the refrigerator door has been opened frequently, it is normal

for the indicator not to show OK. Wait at least 10 hours before

adjusting the REFRIGERATOR OPERATION knob to a higher

setting.

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)

! 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,

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.

Food hygiene

1. Once you have bought your food, remove all external

packaging made of paper/cardboard or other wrappers, which

could introduce bacteria or dirt inside your refrigerator.

2. Protect the food, (especially easily perishable items and those

that have a strong smell), in order to avoid contact between

them, thereby removing both the possibility of germ/bacteria

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

between different items.

4. Keep the inside of your fridge clean, taking care not to use

oxidiser or abrasive products.

5. Remove all food past its expiry date from the refrigerator.

6. For the correct preservation of food, all easily perishable items

(soft cheeses, raw fish, meat, etc.) should be stored in the

coldest zone of the fridge compartment, i.e. just above the salad

crisper where the temperature indicator is situated.

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.

3. Leave the door open until the frost has melted completely. This

can be made easier by placing containers with lukewarm water

in the freezer compartment.

4. Clean and dry the freezer compartment carefully before

switching the appliance on again.

5. Wait for approximately 2 hours, i.e. until the ideal storage

conditions have been restored, before placing food in the

freezer compartment.
