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. Position the antibacterial anti-odour filter in the fan as
demonstrated in the filter packaging (if available). If the audible signal
sounds, it means that the temperature alarm has intervened: press the
button to switch off the acoustic alarms.

6TH SENSE FRESH CONTROL
The appliance is automatically able to quickly reach the optimal
internal preservation temperature. The function enables to control also
the humidity of the appliance. In order for it to function correctly, the
fan must also be turned on. It is possible to turn the function on/off
(see Fan description).
FAN*
The Fan improves temperature distribution inside the product,
allowing better preservation of stored food and reduction of excess
humidity. The fan is switched on by default and can be activate/
deactivate by pressing the button on the base (as shown in the figure).
If the ambient temperature exceeds 27°C, or if drops of water are
present on the glass shelves, it is essential that the fan is
on to ensure the proper preservation of the food.
Deactivation of the fan allows energy consumption to be
optimised.
Note: the fan restarts automatically after a power cut or after
turning off the appliance. Do not obstruct the air intake area
with food items.
ANTIBACTERIAL FILTER*
Remove it from the box placed in the Fruit and vegetable drawer and
insert into the cover of fan. The replacement procedure is included in
the filter box.
TURNING OFF THE SOUND ALARM
To turn off the sound alarm, briefly press the "Stop Alarm" button.
ECO NIGHT FUNCTION
The Eco night function enables the appliance’s energy
consumption to be concentrated in the hours that correspond to
the cheapest electricity tariff (generally at night), when electricity is
freely available and costs less compared to daytime (only in countries
that utilize a multi-tariff system based on time of day - check your
energy tariff with your local electricity utility company). To activate the
function, press the Eco night button at the time the cheap tariff begins
(depending on your specific tariff). For example, if the cheap rate
begins at 8 pm, press the button at that time. When the Eco night LED
is ON, the function is active. Once the function has been activated, the
appliance automatically adapts energy consumption based on the time
selected, i.e. consuming less energy during the day than at night.

FAST COOL
Press the button "Temperature" for 3 seconds to quickly
cool the refrigerator compartment or 6 hours before putting
large quantities of food to be frozen in the freezing zone.
When the function is turned on the icon lights up. The
function automatically turns off after 30 hours, or manually
by pressing the button again for 3 seconds.
Note: avoid a direct contact between the fresh food and the
food that is already frozen To optimise the freezing speed,
drawers can be removed and the food can be placed directly
on the bottom of the compartment.
“0° ZONE” COMPARTMENT*
The “0° ZONE” compartment is specifically designed to maintain a low
temperature and the correct humidity to preserve fresh food for longer
(for example, meat, fish, fruits and winter vegetables).
TURNING ON AND TURNING OFF THE COMPARTMENT
The internal temperature of the compartment is approximately 0°
when the compartment is turned on.
To turn on the compartment, press the button (1) for more than one
second until the symbol (2) lights up. The lit symbol (2) means that the
compartment is working. Press the button (1) again for more than one
second to turn off the compartment. The temperature inside depends
on the general temperature of the refrigerator.

REMOVING THE “0° ZONE“ COMPARTMENT
Carry out the following steps:
1. To make it easier to remove the compartment, we recommend
that you empty (and possibly remove) the lower door shelves.
2. Remove the compartment by rotating it upwards.
3. Remove the white plastic shelf under the compartment.
Note: it is not possible to remove the upper shelf and side supports.
To use the “0° ZONE“ compartment again, carefully reposition the
white plastic shelf under the compartment before inserting the drawer
and turning the function back on.
Humidity control technology coupled with Active0 provides the best
food preservation when the food is not completely packed.
For the correct functioning of the “0° ZONE” compartment, it is
necessary that:
•
the appliance is turned on;
•
the fridge temperature is between +2°C and +6°C;
•
the “0° ZONE” compartment is turned on
•
Vacation Mode and Stand by are not selected
Note:
-- if the symbol does not light up when you turn on the compartment,
check that the drawer is properly inserted; if the problem persists
contact the authorised Technical Assistance Service;
-- when the “0° ZONE” compartment is inserted in the appliance you
may hear a faint noise, which you should consider as normal;
Important: be careful when positioning food and containers that are
small in size on the upper shelf of the “0° ZONE“ compartment in order
to prevent them accidentally falling between the shelf and the back
wall of the refrigerator compartment.
To have a larger refrigerator volume and to reduce energy
consumption, it is recommended to remove the “0° ZONE“
compartment.
Clean the compartment and its components occasionally using a cloth
and a solution of warm water (taking care not to submerge the white
plastic shelf under the drawer) and neutral cleaning agents specifically
for cleaning the inside of the refrigerator. Do not use abrasive cleaning
agents.
Before cleaning the compartment (also externally) it is necessary
to remove the drawer to disconnect the electrical supply.
