to an innovative air system, totally
independent from the fridge. Freeze
burns are reduced up to 60% and food
preserves its original quality and color.
To activate/deactivate the Freeze
Control function press and hold for 3
seconds the Party Mode button.
The function works properly in a
defined range of temperature: between
-22°C and -24°C. When the function is
engaged and the current temperature
in the freezer is set to the warmer set
point than -22°C, the temperature is
automatically set to -22°C to match the
working range.
If the function is engaged and the user
modify the freezer temperature out
of the working range, the function is
automatically switched off.
In case of Fast freezing is engaged, the
function “Freeze control” is inhibited
until the Fast Freezing function
switched off.
BLACK OUT ALARM
After a power blackout, your product
is designed to automatically monitor
the temperature in the freezer
when electricity is resupplied. If
the temperature in the freezer rises
above freezing level, the Black Out
icon lit the Alarm indicator blinks and
the acoustical alarm sounds when
electricity is re-supplied. To reset the
alarm press the Reset Alarm button just
once.
In case of Black Out Alarm, the
following actions are recommended:
• If the food in the freezer is unfrozen
but still cold, all the food in the
freezer should be moved to the fridge
compartment and eaten within the
next 24 hours.
• If the food in the freezer is frozen, this
indicates the food was thawed and
then refrozen when electricity was
re-supplied which degrades taste,
quality and nutritional value and also
could be unsafe. It is recommended
to not consume the food but to
dispose of the entire content of the
freezer.
The Black Out Alarm is designed to
provide guidance on food quality in the
freezer in the event of electricity black
out.
This system does not guarantee food
quality or safety and consumers are
advised to use their own judgment in
evaluating food quality in freezer and
refrigerator compartments.

potable water (maximum level = 2/3 of
the overall capacity of the tray).
The Alarm indicator is automatically
turned-off as soon as the freezer
compartment reaches a temperature
below -10°C and the Alarm indicator
turns off.
Wait at least 30 minutes until the ice
cubes are formed (this time can be
slightly longer if the trays are used
immediately after the first use).
HOW TO TAKE ICE CUBES
When ice is ready please open the
cover and remove cubes.
15
USING QUICK ICE TRAYS
AS EUTETICS
Quick Ice trays can also be used as
eutetics to help in keeping the food
frozen in case of power failure. For the
best usage of them, place them above
food stored in the top drawer of the
freezer compartment. In this position
the trays can still be used to make ice
cubes, however the time needed to do
that may be longer.
ACTIVE 0
COMPARTMENT
The Active 0 compartment is
specifically designed to maintain a low

FOOD-STORAGE TIPS
FRIDGE COMPARTMENT
The refrigerator is the ideal storage location for ready
meals, fresh and preserved food, dairy products, fruit
and vegetables and beverage.
Use recyclable plastic, metal, aluminum and glass
containers and cling film to wrap foods.
Always use closed containers for liquids and for food
that may give off or be tainted by odor or flavor
transfer or cover them.
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.
Foods which give off a large amount ethylene gas
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.
To avoid bottles falling over, you can use the bottle
holder (available on selected models).
Do not store food too close together to enable
sufficient air circulation.
AIR VENTILATION
The natural circulation of air in the refrigerator
compartment results in zones with different
temperatures. It is coldest directly above the fruits
and vegetables crisper and at the rear wall. It is
warmest at the top front of the compartment.
Insufficient ventilation results in an increase in energy
consumption and reduction of the refrigerating
performance.
Do not cover air slots by food on other staff - they
are optimized for proper air circulation and food
preservation.
HOW TO STORE FRESH FOOD AND BEVERAGE
› Use recyclable plastic, metal, aluminum and glass
containers and cling film to wrap foods.
› Do not store food too close together to enable
sufficient air circulation.
› Always use closed containers for liquids and for
food that may give off or be tainted by odor or flavor
transfer or cover them.

› Be aware to do not close air slots by the food.
WHERE TO STORE FRESH FOOD AND BEVERAGE
› On the fridge shelves: ready meals, tropical fruits,
cheeses, deli.
› In the coldest area (the one above the fruits and
vegetables crisper): meat, fish, cold cuts, cakes

FROZEN FOOD: SHOPPING TIPS
When purchasing frozen food products:
› Ensure that the packaging is not damaged (frozen
food in damaged packaging may have deteriorated).
If the package is swollen or has damp patches, it may
not have been stored under optimal conditions and
defrosting may have already begun.
› When shopping, buy frozen foods at the end of your
trip and transport them in a thermally insulated cool
bag.
20
› Once at home, place the frozen foods immediately
in the freezer.
