INSTALLATION
Location
The appliance should be installed well away from sources of heat such as radiators, boilers, direct sunlight, etc.
For building into kitchen units, follow the special "Building-in" instructions provided.
Electrical connection
Before plugging in, ensure that the voltage and frequency shown on the serial number plate correspond to your domestic power supply. Voltage can vary by ±6% of the rated voltage.
For operation with different voltages, a suitably sized auto-transformer must be used.
The appliance must be earthed.
The power supply cable plug is provided with a contact for this purpose.
If the domestic power supply socket is not earthed, connect the appliance to a separate earth in compliance with current regulations, consulting a specialist technician.
The manufacturer declines all responsibility if the above safety precautions are not observed.
This appliance complies with the following E.E.C. Directives:
- 87/308 EEC of 2/6/87 relative to radio interference suppression.
- 73/23 EEC of 19.2.73 (Low Voltage Directive) and subsequent modifications;
- 89/336 EEC of 3.5.89 (Electromagnetic Compatibility Directive) and subsequent modifications.
Attention
It must be possible to disconnect the appliance from the mains power supply; the plug must therefore be easily accessible after installation.
MAINTENANCE
Defrosting
However, when the ice becomes very thick on the inner liner, complete defrosting should be carried out as follows:
- Pull out the plug from the wall socket or turn the thermostat knob to the “O” setting;
- Remove any stored food, wrap it in several layers of newspaper and put it in a cool place;
- Leave the door open, and insert the plastic scraper in the appropriate seating at the bottom centre, placing a basin underneath to collect the defrost water.
- When defrosting is completed, dry the interior thoroughly; keep the scraper for future use;
- Turn the thermostat knob back to the required setting or replace the plug in the power socket.
- After two or three hours, reload the previously removed food into the compartment.
Important:
Never use sharp metal tools to scrape off frost from the evaporator as you could damage it.
Do not use a mechanical device or any artificial means to speed up the thawing process other than those recommended by the manufacturer.
A temperature rise of the frozen food packs, during defrosting, may shorten their safe storage life.
CUSTOMER SERVICE AND SPARE PARTS
If the appliance is not functioning properly, check that:
- the plug is firmly in the wall socket and the mains power switch is on;
- there is an electricity supply (find out by plugging in another appliance);
- the thermostat knob is in the correct position.
- If there are water drops on the bottom of the cabinet, check that the defrost water drain opening is not obstructed (see "Defrosting" section).
- If your appliance is still not working properly after making the above checks, contact the nearest service centre.
To obtain fast service, it is essential that when you apply for it you specify the model and serial number of your appliance which can be found on the guarantee certificate or on the rating plate located inside the appliance, on the bottom left-hand side.
MAINTENANCE
Unplug the appliance before carrying out any maintenance operation.
Warning
This appliance contains hydrocarbons in its cooling unit; maintenance and recharging must therefore only be carried out by authorized technicians.
Periodic cleaning
Clean the inside with warm water and bicarbonate of soda.
Rinse and dry thoroughly.
Clean the condenser (black grill) and the compressor at the back of the appliance with a brush or a vacuum cleaner. This operation will improve the performance of the appliance and save electricity consumption.
Replacing the bulb in the refrigerator compartment
Remove the plug from the power socket. The bulb is easy to change after having removed the fixing screw and the diffuser.
Use a bulb having the same characteristics (maximum power 15 W, Edison E 14 base fitting). Refit the diffuser and fully tighten the screw.
Defrosting
Frost is automatically eliminated from the evaporator of the refrigerator compartment every time the motor compressor stops, during normal use. The defrost water drains out through a trough into a special container at the back of the appliance, over the motor compressor, where it evaporates.
It is important to periodically clean the defrost water drain hole in the middle of the refrigerator compartment channel to prevent the water overflowing and dripping onto the food inside. Use the special cleaner provided, which you will find already inserted into the drain hole.
The freezer compartment, however, will become progressively covered with frost. This should be removed with the special plastic scraper provided, whenever the thickness of the frost exceeds 4 mm. During this operation it is not necessary to switch off the power supply or to remove the foodstuffs.
Never use sharp metal tools to scrape off frost from the evaporator as you could damage it.
Periods of non-operation
When the appliance is not in use for long periods, take the following precautions:
remove the plug from the wall socket; remove all food:
defrost and clean the interior and all accessories;
Leave the door ajar to allow air to circulate to prevent unpleasant smells.
IN CASE OF OPERATING ANOMALY

To help you make the most of the freezing process, here are some important hints:
- the maximum quantity of food which can be frozen in 24 hrs. is shown on the rating plate;
- the freezing process takes 24 hours. No further food to be frozen should be added during this period;
- only freeze top quality, fresh and thoroughly cleaned, foodstuffs;
- prepare food in small portions to enable it to be rapidly and completely frozen and to make it possible subsequently to thaw only the quantity required;
- wrap up the food in aluminium foil or polythene and make sure that the packages are airtight;
- do not allow fresh, unfrozen food to touch food which is already frozen, thus avoiding a rise in temperature of the latter;
- lean foods store better and longer than fatty ones; salt reduces the storage life of food;
- water ices, if consumed immediately after removal from the freezer compartment, can possibly cause the skin to be freeze burnt;
- It is advisable to show the freezing-in date on each individual pack to enable you to keep tab of the storage time;
- the symbols on the drawers show different types of frozen goods.
The numbers indicate storage times in months for the appropriate types of frozen goods. Whether the upper or lower value of the indicated storage time is valid depends on the quality of the foods and pre-treating before freezing;
- do not put carbonated liquids (fizzy drinks, etc.) in the freezer compartment as they may burst.
Hints for storage of frozen food
To obtain the best performance from this appliance, you should:
• make sure that the commercially frozen foodstuffs were adequately stored by the retailer;
- be sure that frozen foodstuffs are transferred from the foodstore to the freezer in the shortest possible time;
• not open the door frequently or leave it open longer than absolutely necessary.
• Once defrosted, food deteriorates rapidly and cannot be refrozen.
- Do not exceed the storage period indicated by the food manufacturer.

Use of the freezer
Operation
Insert the plug into the wall socket. The pilot light will light up, indicating that the appliance is powered. Turn the thermostat knob, clockwise, beyond the «O» (STOP) position. The appliance will start to operate. To stop the appliance, turn the thermostat knob to position «O».
Temperature regulation
The temperature is automatically regulated and can be increased to achieve a higher temperature (warmer) by rotating the thermostat knob toward lower settings or reduced (colder) by rotating the knob towards higher settings. However, the exact setting should be chosen keeping in mind that the temperature inside the refrigerator depends on: room temperature; how often the door is opened; the quantity of food stored; location of appliance. A medium setting is generally the most suitable. To stop operation, simply turn the thermostat knob to position «O».
Freezing fresh food
The 4-star compartment is suitable for long term storage of commercially frozen food, and for freezing fresh food. To freeze fresh foods it is not necessary to change the setting of the thermostat knob. However, for a quicker freezing operation, turn the thermostat knob to the coldest setting; but remember that, in this condition, the refrigerator compartment temperature might drop below 0°C. If this occurs reset thermostat knob to a warmer setting. To help you make the most of the freezing process, here are some important hints: Place the food to be frozen in the top basket of the freezing compartment as this is the coldest part.(C). 52
Important
Do not put carbonated liquids (fizzy drinks, etc.) in the freezing compartment as they may burst. Water ices, if consumed immediately after removal from the freezing compartment, can possibly cause the skin to be freeze burnt. Remember that, once thawed, frozen food deteriorates rapidly.
Storage of frozen food
When first starting-up or after a period out of use, before putting the products in the compartment let the appliance run for at least two hours on the coldest setting, then turn the thermostat knob to the normal operating position. To obtain the best performance from this appliance, you should:
Important
In the event of accidental defrosting, for example due to a power failure, if the power has been off for longer than the value shown in the technical characteristics chart under "rising time", the defrosted food must be consumed quickly or cooked immediately and then refrozen (after cooling).
Thawing
Deep-frozen or frozen food, prior to being used, can be thawed in the refrigerator compartment or at room temperature, depending on the time available for this operation.
Small pieces may even be cooked still frozen, directly from the freezer: in this case, cooking will take longer.
Ice-cube production
This appliance is equipped with one or more trays for the production of ice-cubes. Fill these trays with water, then put them in the freezer compartment.
Do not use metallic instruments to remove the trays from the freezer.
Cleaning the Interior
Before using the appliance for the first time, wash the interior and all internal accessories with lukewarm water and some neutral soap to remove the typical smell of a brand-new product, then dry thoroughly.
Do not use detergents or abrasive powders, as these will damage the finish.
Operation
Insert the plug into the wall socket. Open the refrigerator door and turn the thermostat knob clockwise, beyond the «O» (STOP) position. The appliance will start to operate.
Temperature regulation
The temperature is automatically regulated and can be increased to achieve a higher temperature (warmer) by rotating the thermostat knob toward lower settings or reduced (colder) by rotating the knob towards higher settings.
However, the exact setting should be chosen keeping in mind that the temperature inside the refrigerator depends on:
• room temperature; • how often the door is opened; • the quantity of food stored; • location of appliance.
A medium setting is generally the most suitable.
Important
If the ambient temperature is high or the appliance is fully loaded, and the appliance is set to the lowest temperatures, it may run continuously causing frost to form on the rear wall. In this case the dial must be set to a higher temperature to allow automatic defrosting and therefore reduced energy consumption.
Fresh food refrigeration
To obtain the best performance:
- do not store warm food or evaporating liquids in the refrigerator; • do cover or wrap the food, particularly if it has a strong flavour.
- Position food so that air can circulate freely around it.
Useful hints:
Meat (all types): wrap in polythene bags and place in the wire baskets.
For safety, store in this way only one or two days at the most.
Cooked foods, cold dishes, etc.: these should be covered and may be placed in the wire baskets.
Fruit and vegetables: these should be thoroughly cleaned and placed in the special basket provided (B).
Bottles should be placed in the special basket (B) fitted with adjustable holders for various bottle sizes. Bananas, potatoes, onions and garlic, if not packed, must not be kept in the refrigerator.
Do not speed up the thawing process other than those recommended by the manufacturer. Never use metal objects for cleaning your appliance as it may get damaged.
Installation
- During normal operation, the condenser and compressor at the back of the appliance heat up considerably. For safety reasons, minimum ventilation must be as shown in the instructions. Attention: keep ventilation openings clear of obstruction.
- Care must be taken to ensure that the appliance does not stand on the electrical supply cable. Important: if the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by a special cord or assembly available from the manufacturer or its service agent.
- If the appliance is transported horizontally, it is possible that the oil contained in the compressor flows into the refrigerant circuit. It is advisable to wait at least two hours before connecting the appliance to allow the oil to flow back into the compressor.
- There are working parts in this product which heat up. Always ensure that there is adequate ventilation as a failure to do this will result in component failure and possible food loss. See installation instructions.
- Parts which heat up should not be exposed. Wherever possible the back of the product should be against a wall.
