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

! Before starting the appliance, follow the installation

instructions (

see Installation

! Before connecting the appliance, clean the compartments and

accessories well with lukewarm water and bicarbonate.

1. Insert the plug into the socket and ensure that the red ALARM

and green POWER indicator lights illuminate (the

TEMPERATURE ADJUSTMENT knob must not be on

2. Turn the TEMPERATURE ADJUSTMENT knob to the “Super”

position: the yellow SUPER FREEZE indicator light will

illuminate.

3. When the red indicator light switches off, turn the

TEMPERATURE ADJUSTMENT knob to a medium position.

The freezer is now ready to be used.

Using the freezer to its full potential

• Use the FREEZER OPERATION knob to adjust the

temperature (see Description).

• 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 in the top FREEZER and STORAGE compartment

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 each day is

indicated on the data plate, which is located inside the freezer

(for example: 4 kg per 24 hours).

• In order to obtain a greater amount of space in the freezer

compartment, you may remove the bins (except the lowest

bin) and place the food directly onto the evaporator plates.

• To freeze food (if the freezer is already in operation):

- For small quantities measuring less than half of the value

indicated on the data plate, turn the TEMPERATURE

ADJUSTMENT knob to the SUPER (rapid freezing) position

(the corresponding yellow indicator light will illuminate), place

the food inside and close the door. After 24 hours, once the

freezing process is complete, turn the knob back to its normal

operating position.

- For large quantities measuring over half of the maximum

value indicated on the data plate, turn the TEMPERATURE

ADJUSTMENT knob to the SUPER position 24 hours before

placing the food you wish to freeze inside. After another 24

hours, once the freezing process is complete, turn the knob

back to its normal operating position.

! 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.

! Warning Indicator Light. When this red warning light comes on

for a prolonged period of time, it means that the freezer is not

functioning properly and the temperature is rising too much. (Call

your Service Centre).

This warning light might come on for a brief period when:

a) the door is left open for an extended period of time (when the

freezer is being loaded or unloaded).

b) the TEMPERATURE ADJUSTMENT knob is turned to the

“Super” setting.

In these two cases, the fact that the warning light comes on does

not indicate that the freezer is malfunctioning or there is a defect.

Ice

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 by 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 cubes from dispensing

(if this happens, wait for the ice to melt and empty the tray).
