OPERATION

FIRST TIME USE

Wait at least two hours, after the installation, before connecting the appliance to the power supply. Connect the appliance to the power supply it starts the operation automatically. The ideal storage temperatures for the food are preset in the factory.

After turning the appliance on, you must wait for 4-6 hours for the correct storage temperature to be reached for a normally filled appliance. If the audible signal sounds, it means that the temperature alarm has intervened: press the button to switch off the acoustic alarms.

REFRIGERATOR COMPARTMENT AND FOOD STORAGE

The refrigerator compartment allows for the storage of fresh food and drink. The refrigerator compartment defrosts completely automatically. The occasional presence of drops of water on the internal back wall of the compartment is a sign of the automatic defrosting phase. The defrosting water is channelled into a drain and then collected in a container, where it evaporates.

Note: the ambient temperature, how often the doors are opened and the position of the appliance may affect the internal temperatures in the two compartments. Set the temperatures depending on these factors. In very humid conditions, condensation may form in the refrigerator compartment, especially on the glass shelves. In this case, it is recommended that you close containers with liquids in (e.g. a pot of stock), wrap up food with a high water content (e.g. vegetables) and turn on the fan, if there is one. All of the drawers, door shelves and shelves can be removed.

AIR VENTILATION

The ventilation air allows a better distribution of the temperatures inside the compartments and, consequently, better preservation of the food and reduction of excess humidity. Do not obstruct the ventilation area.

LIGHT SYSTEM

This product contains 4 lateral light sources of energy efficiency class F and a top light source of energy class G

HOW TO STORE FRESH FOOD AND BEVERAGES

Foods which give off a large amount ethylene gas (apples, apricots, pears, peaches, avocado, figs, prunes, blueberries, mellons, beans) and those that are sensitive to this gas, such as fruit vegetables and salad, should always be separated or wrapped so as not to reduce the storage life; for example do not store tomatoes together with kiwi fruits or cabbage. Do not store food too close together to enable sufficient air circulation.

Use recyclable plastic, metal, aluminum and glass containers and cling film to wrap foods.

If you have a little quantity of food to store in the refrigerator, we recommend to use the shelves above the crisper for fruits and vegetables since this is the coolest area of the compartment. Always use closed containers for liquids and for food that may give off or be tainted by odor or flavor transfer or cover them. To avoid bottles falling over, you can use the bottle holder (available on selected models).

0°C COMPARTMENT / COLD ZONE

The drawer is specifically designed to maintain a low temperature to preserve fresh food for longer time (for example, fresh pasta, sour cream, pesto/salsa, homemade preparation, pastry cream, pudding, cream cheese, cold cuts, desserts, meat and fish).

The internal temperature of the drawer is between +3 °C and -2 °C. For the correct functioning of the drawer, it is necessary that Vacation mode option is not selected.

The freezer compartment ☐ ☐☐ allows long time storage of frozen food and freezing of fresh food. The quantity of fresh food that can be frozen in 24 hours is written on the rating plate. Arrange the fresh food in the freezing area inside the freezer compartment, leaving enough space around the food packages to allow air to circulate freely. It is advisable that you do not re-freeze food that has partially defrosted. It is important to wrap the food in a way that prevents the ingress of water, humidity or condensation.

Suggested to freeze fresh/cooked food

REMOVING THE DRAWERS

Pull the drawers outwards as far as they will go, lift them up and remove them. To get more volume, the freezer compartment can be used without the drawers. Make sure that the door is closed properly after putting the food back on the grilles/shelves.

FREEZER COMPARTMENT

Freezing fresh food

1. It is advisable to set the temperature colder or turn on the Fast Freeze/Fast Cool at least four hours before removing the food from the freezer compartment, to prolong the preservation of the food during the defrosting phase.
2. To defrost, unplug the appliance and remove the drawers. Leave the door open to allow the frost to melt. To prevent the water from escaping during the defrost, it is advised that you place an absorbent cloth on the bottom of the freezer compartment and wring it out regularly.
3. Clean the inside of the freezer compartment and dry it carefully.
4. Turn the appliance back on and put the food back inside.

The quantity of fresh food that can be frozen in a specific time period is indicated on the rating plate. Load limits are determined by baskets, flaps, drawers, shelves etc. Make sure that these components can still close easily after loading.

Ice cubes

Fill 2/3 of the ice tray with water and put it back in the freezer compartment. Do not use sharp or pointed objects to remove the ice under any circumstances.

The quantity of fresh food that can be frozen in a specific time period is indicated on the rating plate.

FUNCTIONAL SOUNDS

1. A buzz generated by the compressor is normal while the product is working.

Illustration of a person holding a speech bubble next to a globe, a server with a speech bubble, and a cabinet (no text or symbols present)

1. Gurgling and crackles are generated by the passage of the refrigerant gas inside the cooling circuit, therefore these are normal noises.

Guide Guide

1. It's possible to "hear" creaks when the compressor is active and inactive: it is a normal sound of the product's structure.

1. Check that the balconies on the inside of the refrigerator door, the shelves and the drawers in the refrigerator compartment are attached and positioned properly, to avoid possible vibrations.

2. Don't place glass containers (bottles, jars, etc.) in direct contact with each other, to avoid vibrations.

3. This device is equipped with a compressor that operates at an optimum speed to minimize energy consumption. So it may happen that in certain situations (in summer or if large quantities of food are introduced) that the compressor increases the speed and therefore it is more noisy than usual.

RECOMMENDATION IN CASE OF NO USE OF THE APPLIANCE

In the event of non-use of the applicance

Disconnect the appliance from the power supply, empty it, defrost it (if necessary) and clean it. Keep the doors slightly ajar to let air circulate inside the compartments. By doing this, you avoid the development of mould and bad odours.

In the event of an interruption to the power supply

Keep the doors closed so the food stays cold for as long as possible. Do not re-freeze food that has partially defrosted. If there is a prolonged power cut, the black out alarm may also activate (in products with electronics).

CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE

Before any cleaning or maintenance operation, unplug the appliance from the mains or disconnect the electrical power supply.

Never use abrasives. Never clean refrigerator parts with flammable fluids.

Do not use steam cleaners.
