7.1 Activation and use of the Ice Maker
Ice Maker
Note
If the ice is not used frequently is advisable to empty the ice bin once every 8-10 days. It is normal that some ice cubes stick to one another. If the ice is not frequently used, the older cubes can become opaque, and will have a strange flavour and become smaller.
The Icemaker automatically deactivates if the Vacation function is activated.
When the Icemaker is started for the first time, it is recommended to dispose of the first full bin of ice.
If the equipment has been switched off for a month or more, it is recommended to perform a water and filter cleaning cycle.
L'IceMaker produce ghiaccio se il vano TriMode è impostato in modalità Freezer.
Warning
The ice maker will continue to operate even when the ice bin is not in position
To activate the Ice Maker after installation of the appliance touch the function icon and then and then the ice maker icon from the functions
Please note that 12 to 24 hours are necessary before ice production may begin.
The production is of 10 cubes per cycle in approximately 10 cycles in 24 hours.
The yield depends on the temperature set in the freezer, the room temperature and the frequency of door opening.
If the appliance is operating without being connected to the water system, make sure that the Icemaker is deactivated by toch the icon
The Ice Maker produces ice until the ice tray is full and will automatically stop once the maximum level is reached.
With the SuperIce function, it is possible to increase the quantity of ice produced a 24 hours, while the Set Cube Size function permits selection of the size of the produced ice cubes.
Do the ice cubes have an unusual odour?
Ice is a porous material which can absorb odours from the environment. Ice cubes which have been in the ice cube container for a long time may absorb odours, stick together and slowly become smaller.
We recommend that old ice cubes not be used. Other means of preventing odors:
The ice cube container should be cleaned occasionally with warm water. Make sure that you switch off the ice maker before clearing the container. Rinse out and wipe dry.
Check the contents of the freezer for spoiled or out-of-date food. All odorous foods should be wrapped thoroughly or stored in airtight containers to prevent the build-up of odors.
The water filter may have to be replaced in some models.
In some cases the quality of the water connection in the house should be checked.
Operating noises
Quite normal noises
Grumbling: refrigerating unit is running. Fan in the recirculating air system is running.
Bubbling, humming or gurgling noises: refrigerant is flowing through the tubes.
Clicking: motor is switching on or off. Solenoid valve on the water connection is opening/closing.
Rumbling: ice cubes are falling into the ice cube container.
the appliance is powered by two independent compressors. It is therefore normal to always have one of two compressors in operation.
Warning
Do not place any bottles or food for rapid cooling in the ice cube container. The ice maker may become blocked and be damaged.
7.2 Water Filter
The Water Filter makes available high-quality water for the production of ice cubes. It provides up to 3000 liters of water for a maximum time of 12 months.
Filter Replacement
The filter is located inside the refrigerator compartment, above the top glass panel. Prior to changing the filter, switch off the Ice Maker by toch the icon ice maker.
Open the top glass panel and carefully rotate the filter cartridge for a quarter rotation in a counter clockwise direction until it detaches from its housing. It is normal for a small quantity of water to come out. Remove the cap of the new cartridge and insert it into the housing by gently rotating it for a quarter rotation in a clockwise direction until it locks into place.
Then enter the Menu and set la funzione "manual Clean" through the icon . At the end of the cleaning cycle remove the water from the ice tray and wipe it dry.
7.3 Water filter for freezer column Ice Maker
Freezer columns equipped with automatic ice-makers include an externally mounted water filter kit. The water filter manifold and waterline connections must be installed in conjunction with the fridge as the waterline connecting the back of the appliance to the filter kit must be in place before installing the unit.
The filter kit should be installed in an accessible location (such as an adjacent cabinet) to allow for the water filter cartridge to be changed annually.
If you choose not to use the water filter (such as connecting the appliance to an already filtered water source) then it is suggested to also set the function Water Filter through the icon ,touch the icon reset e disable the warning to avoid receiving reminders to change the filter (that you are not using).
For more details and how to access this function setting, follow instructions on page 17 of the included instruction manual: "Reset Filter".
EN
8.1 Lighting
To provide optimum interior lighting, LED strips illuminate the refrigerator compartment from the top and sets of LED lights directly illuminate different areas of the refrigerator compartment, of the Crisper-Fresco drawers and the freezer drawer.
In case of malfunction and/or wearing out of the lighting system, the repair should be carried out by a qualified Service technician.
9.1 General directions
Your fridge is designed to ensure precise, constant temperatures and appropriate humidity levels in all compartments.
In addition, the double refrigeration ensures that frozen foods and ice do not absorb the odor of fresh foods and that the humidity in the refrigerator does not freeze and build up frost.
Nevertheless, to properly preserve all of your foods, it is not enough to have an excellent refrigerator. It is also necessary to know the rules for correct food preservation.
Do bear in mind that all foods will inevitably change their characteristics over the passage of time. This change begins long before the food is consumed, since foods contain micro organisms which multiply and can cause deterioration. This process occurs more rapidly due to improper handling, preservation temperatures and humidity levels.
It is therefore recommended to follow the directions presented below which will permit using your refrigerator/freezer in the most effective and safe manner to keep your foods in the best way for as long as possible.
Bear in mind that the Crisper-Fresco area is the area for preserving the most delicate fresh foods, since it ensures constant average temperature near freezing.
Periodically check that all foods are in a perfect state of preservation. It is usually quite clear when a food item is deteriorated, due to mold, unpleasant odor and unpleasant aspect. Nevertheless, there are cases in which these conditions are not so evident. If you believe that a food item was kept for an excessive period of time and may be deteriorated, do not consume this item or even taste it, even if it seems to still be healthy, since the bacteria that cause deterioration of food can also cause poisoning and illness. When in doubt, throw the food away.
9.2 How to maintain good food quality
When buying groceries
Always take the following precautions:
Place any packages of raw meat, fish or poultry in plastic bags so that they do not drip on other foods.
Purchase meat, poultry and fish last. Do not leave your groceries in a warm car after shopping. Keep a freezer bag in your car and use it in case of very high temperatures or long trips.
Check the production dates and "best before" times on foods to be sure that they are fresh.
Be very careful when buying fresh foods, and only buy a quantity that can be consumed during your planned preservation period.
When possible, let warm foods adjust to room temperature for at least two hours before placing them in the refrigerator, unless you have activated the Shopping function before.
When placing foods in
Check the refrigeration temperature of the various compartments on the control panel:
The refrigerator temperature must be 8^ (45^) or lower and the freezer temperature must be -18^ (0^)
Follow the recommendations regarding the preservation times and temperatures indicated in the tables to follow.
Keep raw meat, fish and poultry separate from other foods and avoid any possible drippings.
When placing foods in
When placing in the refrigerator your meat, fish or poultry, leave these in their original packaging, unless the packaging is ripped or punctured. Repeated handling could introduce bacteria into these foods.
To keep food in the freezer is a good idea to use freezer containers.
Label and date the packages
Be careful to correctly position the food items on the shelves in a way that does not obstruct the air circulation vents inside the compartment.
Notes
When a high level of humidity is present either in the environment or in the foods placed in the Fresco drawers, the bottom of the Fresco compartment might be covered
with some water or ice (if the temperature is set between 0^ and -2C^
Such condition is normal and it is due to the high humidity levels of the Fresco compartment; high humidity together with low temperatures is what guarantees a longer preservation of foods.
Water or ice can disappear on its own if the air humidity level should lower; it is also possible to remove the water with a towel. If a thin layer of ice has formed, set the temperature of the Fresco compartment to +2^ and after one day remove the water with a towel.
If the layer of ice is thicker, it might be necessary to shut off the Fresco compartment for one day in order to melt it.
Warning
After a prolonged interruption of electrical power, once the electrical power is reactivated, an audible signal will indicate if the temperature has raised above normal levels. In addition to this the display will show for one minute the highest temperature detected inside the compartments, to allow the user to decide how to better use the food items.
After one minute the display will resume normal operation, while the Alarm button will continue to blink.
Press the Alarm button to display the highest recorded temperatures.
The appliance working temperatures are set at the recommended degrees of +5^ for the refrigerator, 0^ for Fresco drawers and -18^ for the freezer.
