Switching the appliance on and temperature adjustment
Switch the power to the appliance on.
If you have purchased a model with antibacterial filter, the filter should be fitted in place now. (refer to
“Maintenance and cleaning” of the appliance). The ideal temperatures for preserving foods are already
factory set.
When the appliance is switched on for the first time, the acoustic signal sounds and the red light (10)
flashes, indicating that the temperature inside the freezer is still not cold enough for introducing food. The
acoustic signal can be deactivated by pressing the button (11) on the control panel. Place food in the
freezer only when the red alarm light has gone off.
Note:
• 4-5 hours are required for the refrigerator compartment to reach a temperature suitable for storage.
• Ambient temperature, frequency of door opening and position of the appliance can affect the
temperature inside the two compartments. These factors should be taken into account when setting
the thermostat position.
• The space between the shelves and the rear wall of the refrigerator ensures the free circulation of air.
• Do not place food in direct contact with the rear wall of the refrigerator compartment.
• Do not place hot food in the compartments.
• Store liquids in closed containers.
• Storing vegetables with high water content can cause condensation to form: this does not affect correct
appliance operation.

Refrigerator compartment alarms
The acoustic alarm is activated when the door has been left open for more than 1 minute. If the door is
left open for another minute, the inside light will start flashing and will switch off after the door has been
open for 10 minutes, whereas the acoustic alarm will remain activated.
Pressing the Acoustic Alarm button (11) will only silence the acoustic signal, whereas the inside light will
continue to behave as described above.
