Frequently Asked Questions - FBF 290 NF ED Fulgor Milano

How long should I wait before plugging in the freezer after installation?
Allow the freezer to stand for at least 4 hours to let the compressor oil settle if transported horizontally.
What do the temperature settings 1 to 6 and the snowflake mean?
Settings 1 to 5 correspond to increasing coldness, with 5 being the coldest normal setting. The snowflake (setting 6) activates Super Freeze for quick freezing, automatically turning off after about 24 hours.
How do I adjust the temperature?
Press the temperature adjustment sensor (A) repeatedly to cycle through settings. The current setting appears on the display (B). For seasonal guidance: settings 1-2 for summer (25-35°C), 3-4 for spring/autumn (15-25°C), and 5 for winter (5-15°C).
Why is there frost or water in the freezer?
The No Frost system prevents heavy ice buildup, but some frost is normal. If you see excessive frost or water, check that the door seals are clean and closing properly. Also ensure the decor door (if fitted) is correctly installed.
Can I reverse the freezer door?
Yes, the door is reversible. Follow the instructions in the manual (section 7) using tools like a screwdriver and spanner. After reversing, you may need to heat the door seal with a hair dryer (at 10 cm distance) to ensure proper sealing.
What is the maximum amount of fresh food I can freeze in 24 hours?
Check the rating plate on your appliance for the maximum freezing capacity. Do not exceed this amount to maintain performance.
How do I clean the freezer?
Unplug the appliance. Use a solution of bicarbonate of soda and lukewarm water for the interior. For drawers, use mild washing-up liquid. Rinse and dry thoroughly. Avoid abrasive cleaners.
What should I do if the freezer is noisy?
Ensure the appliance is level and stable, and not touching the rear wall. Some gurgling from the refrigerant is normal. If noise persists, check for items resting on the appliance.
How long is the warranty?
The minimum warranty is 2 years for EU countries, but it varies by region (e.g., 3 years for Turkey, 1 year for UK). Refer to your purchase documents.
Can I store bottled drinks in the freezer?
No, do not store bottled or canned liquids, especially carbonated drinks, as they can burst when frozen.

For further information about the product, please consult https://eprel.ec.europa.eu/ or scan the QR on the energy label supplied with the appliance

You must allow the freezer to settle for at least four hours prior to switching the power on.

It is recommended that you clean the interior of the appliance prior to first use, using a solution of bicarbonate of soda and warm water and then thoroughly drying the interior.

The freezer may have an odor to it at first use. This will disappear as the appliance cools.

Please note:

The appliance will start on temperature setting 3 and work continuously until it comes down to the correct temperature.

If the appliance is switched off, you should allow five minutes before switching it on again to prevent unnecessary damage to the compressor.

Never store inflammable or explosive items and strong corrosive acids or alkalis in the appliance.

This freezer cools your food by making the inside back of the cavity cold. It is normal for frost to build up on this surface; it then dissipates and drains through a small drain at the bottom, where it evaporates harmlessly. The presence of some frosting is not a malfunction of the freezer.

  • The freezer compartments are designed to store only frozen food.
  • Never put hot or warm foods in the freezer, allow them to cool fully before putting them into the freezer.
  • Follow the instructions on the food packaging for storage of frozen food. If no information is provided, foods should not be stored for more than three months after the purchase date.
  • Store food in small packages (ideally less than 2.5kg). This reduces the freezing time and improves the quality of the food after thawing.
  • Wrap food before putting into the freezer. To stop the wrapping sticking together, ensure it is dry.
  • Label the food before freezing with information including type of food and dates of storage and expiry.
  • Once food is thawed, it must not be refrozen unless it has been completely cooked. Only defrost as much food as is required to prevent wastage.
  • Bottled or canned drinks should not be stored in the freezer compartment as they could explode.
  • Check the rating plate to confirm the maximum amount of fresh food that can be frozen within a 24 hour period.

Do not attempt to freeze more than the maximum amount.

Storage

The freezer is for short-mid term food storage. Although low temperatures can be maintained, extended periods of food storage is not recommended.

As the cold air circulates within the freezer, the temperature can vary between the different sections. As such, foods should be stored in different sections according to type and storage term.

The bottom sections are the coldest parts of the freezer.

Fig. 1
Fulgor Milano FBF 290 NF ED - Storage - 1

natural_image Front view of a vertical storage cabinet with multiple shelves and one door open (no text or symbols visible)

The top two sections have raisable flaps that stay open for ease of loading and unloading. The remaining 5 sections are drawers.

The 6th setting on the control panel, represented by the snowflake (Fig. 2), is a super freeze function. This should be used when freezing large quantities of food all at once. Activate this function 2 or 3 hours before introducing the food and do not leave it to run for more than necessary.

Leaving it to run for longer will place unnecessary strain on the cooling system. The function will automatically deactivate after approximately 24 hours.

The most energy-saving configuration requires drawers, food box and shelves to be positioned in the product, please refer to the above pictures.

  • It's suggested to set the temperature at -18 C in the freezer compartment.
  • For frozen food, refer to the storage time written on the food packaging. This storage time is achieved whenever the setting respects the reference temperatures of the compartment (one-star -6 C, two stars -12 C, three -18 C)

Do not use abrasive products or detergents. After washing, rinse and dry thoroughly.

Clean the compartments separately by hand with a mild solution of washing up liquid and water.

Do not use abrasive cleaners or detergents.

If the appliance is not to be used for prolonged periods of time, unplug and clean the appliance.

The doors should be left slightly ajar to prevent the formation of mildew and unpleasant odors.

Defrosting the freezer

The freezer has a no frost system which is designed to prevent the heavy build up of ice. Under normal use, there should be no need to regularly defrost the freezer system.

Please note: If you are regularly finding a heavy build up of ice, or pools of water, in the freezer section then it is likely that the door is not sealing properly. This could be due to a defective door seal or an incorrectly fitted, or overly heavy, decor door. For more information see the troubleshooting section on ice.

Please note: If you are regularly finding pools of water in the freezer, frost build-ups, or you notice that the compressor is always running, then it is likely that the door is not sealing properly. This could be due to a defective door seal or an incorrectly fitted, or overly heavy, decor door. For more information see the troubleshooting section on ice on page 12.

If you have any problems with your appliance, you should check the troubleshooting prior to calling Montpellier Customer Care.

If the appliance is not working, check:

• That there is power to the appliance.
- The house fuses are intact and the fuse in the plug has not blown.
• The freezer has not been turned off
- The plug socket is functioning fine. To check this, plug another electrical appliance in to see if the socket is faulty.

If the appliance is working, but not very well, check:

• The appliance is not overloaded.
• The thermostat is set to an appropriate temperature.
• The doors are closing properly.
- The cooling system at the rear of the appliance is clean and free of dust, and not touching the rear wall.
• There is enough ventilation at the side and rear walls.
- This can be due to the decor door(s) not being properly fitted, causing the freezer door to not close properly thus letting warm air in. If you are at all unsure, ask your fitter to check the decor doors.

If the appliance is noisy, check:

• The appliance is level and stable.
- The side and rear walls are clear, and there is nothing resting on the appliance.
- Note: The cooling gas in the system may make a slight bubbling or gurgling noise, even when the compressor is not running.

If the appliance is beeping, check:

• That the door is closed.

If there's water in the base of the freezer, check:

  • Check that there is some resistance when opening the door of the appliance. If it opens at the slightest touch it may mean that the door seal needs to be replaced.
  • Check the door seal for any kinks, debris or damage. If you notice any, and are unable to resolve the issue yourself, contact Customer Care so that the seal can be replaced.
  • This can be due to the decor door(s) not being properly fitted. If you are at all unsure, ask your fitter to check the decor doors.

If excessive ice has formed in the freezer:

  • It is normal for some ice to form in the freezer. This does not constitute a fault with the appliance.
  • Check that there is some resistance when opening the door of the appliance. If it opens at the slightest touch it may mean that the door seal needs to be replaced.
  • Check the door seal for any kinks, debris or damage. If you notice any, and are unable to resolve
  • the issue yourself, contact Customer Care so that the seal can be replaced.
  • This can be due to the decor door(s) not being properly fitted. If you are at all unsure, ask your fitter to check the decor doors.

This appliance must never be installed close to heat sources, e.g. heating elements or cookers, nor in damp places.

Seek the help of another individual, or two, when installing this appliance. This appliance may have sharp edges. Wear adequate PPE for the task and environment.

  • To ensure the appliance is level, you should use the height adjustable feet at the front of the appliance.
  • The cooling system at the rear of the appliance must not touch the rear wall. The greater the gap, the better.
  • The appliance must be installed with adequate ventilation. Ensure that there is clearance above the appliance to allow air to escape and that there is space between the rear of the appliance and the wall.

Ventilation

The main consideration when installing any refrigeration unit into a fitted kitchen is ventilation. The heat removed from the cooling compartment needs to be dissipated into the atmosphere.

Incorrect ventilation can lead to premature compressor failure, excessive power consumption, total system failure and may invalidate the warranty provided with the appliance. For products intended to be installed into a tall housing unit, the following requirements need to be met:

Fig. 7

An air intake should be provided somewhere in the cabinet run to allow free air in. In this example, a * plinth vent in shown underneath the refrigerator.

A cutout should be made in the * plinth below the fridge/freezer and this finished neatly using the air vent grille.

Alternatively, a thin section on the * plinth can be removed to allow air into the unit (recommended 600mm x 10mm).

Refrigerator Outline Min 30 mm

Plan view of rear ventilation gap

The top of the cabinet needs to be vented into the room.

Recommended size of vent opening: 500x30mm

If the furniture does not allow free air into the room then a plinth vent, or other means of ventilation needs to be provided to ensure a natural flow of air.

There should be space at the rear of the cabinet to allow cool air to be drawn over the condenser.

Recommended: 500x35

*Please note a plinth vent/grill is not included with the appliance. This is given as a guide to aid installation. Your installer will be able to determine if you would be required to buy a plinth vent/grill for your type of installation or not.

The open channel at the rear is clearly shown. For the correct operation of the appliance it is important that the top of the housing unit is not blocked off. A channel depth of 40-50mm is normal with most units.

A ventilation hole is required in the plinth of the unit; this allows air To be drawn over the compressor & heat exchange. The required air flow can be achieved by removal of a thin section of plinth (recommended 600mm x 10mm minimum).

As a rule, the more air that can get in and out, the better and more efficient the operation of the product.

Installation into the cabinet

With the help of another individual, or two, move the appliance into the cabinet. There are two metal plates at the base of the appliance. Fit the supplied white spacers (Fig. 8) to these plates, as per Fig. 9.

After completing the installation, check that the appliance is secured within the unit and that the door(s) close and open properly. If there is no resistance from the door seals when opening the doors, then it is probable that the appliance and/or decor doors are not fitted properly.

Reversing the appliance door

We recommend you seek the help of another individual to support the doors whilst performing this operation. Always wear adequate PPE (Personal Protective Equipment) for the task at hand. Prepare a surface with a soft, clean towel or similar where you can place the door during these steps.

Ensuring the door seals correctly:

It is normal for the seal to be compressed after the door has been reversed. With the door closed, use a hair dryer to expand the seal and fill the gap between the door and the body of the appliance. Take care not to use the hair dryer too close to the appliance, which could damage the seal. A distance of approximately 10cm should be adequate. When completed, allow the seal and door to cool before touching them. Once done, the seal should remain in position.

The Ground Truth image displays a single, solid horizontal line. According to Rule 2 (UNDERSCORE & LINE RULES), this is a stylistic or background line, not a placeholder underscore. Therefore, the OCR result must ignore it and output nothing or only meaningful text. The provided OCR content is "____", which consists of four underscores. This is an incorrect interpretation of the line as a placeholder, violating the rule that stylistic lines must be ignored. The OCR has hallucinated underscores where none should exist based on the GT's visual context. Hence, the OCR result is inconsistent with the Ground Truth.
