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.

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).

1. Set the FREEZER OPERATION knob on .
2. Insert the plug into the socket and ensure that the

green POWER indicator light illuminates.

3. Turn the FREEZER OPERATION knob to an average

value and press the SUPER FREEZE button (rapid
freezing): the SUPER FREEZE indicator light will
illuminate. Once the refrigerator has reached the
optimal temperature, the indicator light goes out and
you can begin food storage.

4. Turn the REFRIGERATOR OPERATION knob to an

average value. After a few hours you will be able to put
food in the refrigerator.

Chiller system

No Frost

It is recognisable by
aeration cells located on
the back walls of the
compartments.
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 block the aeration cells by placing food or

containers in direct contact with the refrigerating back
panel. Close bottles and wrap food tightly.

Using the refrigerator to its full potential

• Use the REFRIGERATOR OPERATION knob to adjust

the temperature (

see Description).

• Press the SUPER COOL button (rapid cooling) to lower

the temperature quickly. For example, when you place
a large number of new food items inside a fridge the
internal temperature will rise slightly. The function
quickly cools the groceries by temporarily reducing
the temperature until it reaches the ideal level.

• Place only cold or lukewarm foods in the compartment,

not hot foods (

see Precautions and tips).

• Remember 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 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.
