Right Temperature

OK

With the temperature indicator you can keep a check that your refrigerator is working properly.

The indicator shows the "OK" symbol when the coldest area reaches a temperature that is below or equal to 4¡C.

If the temperature is higher than 4¡C the indicator is black so you must adjust the thermostat to make the temperature drop.

ATTENTION: Keeping the refrigerator door open for a long time will cause the internal temperature to rise. To measure the temperature correctly, it should be read on the indicator within 30 seconds.

Hints

PR187

¥ For more thorough cleaning, the top and bottom door sheves can be removed by pulling them in the direction of the arrows, then refitting them in position.

Saving Energy

¥ Pay careful attention to where the cabinet is placed. See the section ÒInstallationÓ. When installed correctly the cabinet will consume less energy.

¥ Try to avoid keeping the doors open for long periods or opening the doors too frequently as warm air will enter the cabinet and cause the compressor to switch on unnecessarily often.

¥ If the ambient temperature is high, the thermostat knob is on the coldest setting (higher numbers) and the appliance is fully loaded, the compressor may run continuously, causing frost or ice to form on the

16

evaporator. If this happens, turn the knob to a warmer setting (lower numbers) to allow automatic defrosting and so a saving in electricity consumption.

¥ Do not place warm foods inside the appliance.

Allow warm foods to cool first.

¥ Put frozen food in the fridge to defrost. The cold in the frozen food will then be used to cool the fridge.

¥ Keep the heat emitting condenser, the metall grille on the rear wall of your appliance, always clean.

Interior Accessories

Ice-cube production

This appliance is equipped with one or more trays for the production of ice-cubes.

Fill these trays with water, then put them in the freezer compartment.

Do not use metallic instruments to remove the trays from the freezer.

Hints for refrigeration

¥ Do not store warm food or evaporating liquids in the refrigerator and do cover or wrap up the food, particularly if it has a strong smell.

To help you use your refrigerator correctly, here are some useful hints:

¥

Raw meat

(beef, pork, lamb & poultry): wrap in polythene bags and place on top of the salad compartment, this being the coldest spot in the refrigerator.

Meat can only be stored safely in this way for one or two days at the most.

¥

Cooked food, cold cuts, jelly, etc.:

these should be well covered and can be stored on any of the glass shelves.

¥

Fruit & vegetables:

these should be thoroughly cleaned and placed in the bottom drawer.

¥

Butter & cheese:

these should be placed in special airtight containers or wrapped in aluminium foil or polythene bags to keep out as much air as possible.

¥

Milk bottles:

these should have a top and should be stored in the bottle rack on the door.

Bananas, potatoes, onions and garlic, if not packed, must not be kept in the refrigerator.

Hints

Freezing of fresh food and storage of frozen food

¥ Prepare food in small portions to enable it to be rapidly and completely frozen and to make it possible subsequently to thaw only the quantity required.

¥ Wrap up the food in aluminium foil or polythene and make sure that the packages are airtight.

¥ Do not allow fresh, unfrozen food to touch food which is already frozen, thus avoiding a rise in temperature of the latter.

¥ Do not touch frozen food with wet hands. Your hands could stick to the food and cause skin abrasions.

¥ It is advisable to show the freezing-in date on each individual pack to enable you to keep tab of the storage time.

¥ Be sure that frozen foodstuffs are transferred from the foodstore to the freezer in the shortest possible time.

¥

Do not put carbonated liquids (fizzy drinks, etc.) in the freezing compartment as they may burst.

¥ Once defrosted, food deteriorates rapidly and cannot be refrozen.

Freezer compartment

Temperature Control

¥ To freeze fresh foods it is not necessary to change the setting of the thermostat knob.

¥ For a quicker freezing operation, turn the thermostat knob to the coldest setting; but remember that, in this condition, the refrigerator compartment temperature might drop below 0¡C. If this occurs reset thermostat knob to a warmer setting.

¥ At the first starting-up or after a period out of use, before putting the products in the compartment, let the appliance run for at least two hours on the coldest setting, then turn the thermostat knob to the normal operating position.

17

Maintenance

Unplug the appliance before carrying out any maintenance operation.

Warning

This appliance contains hydrocarbons in its cooling unit maintenance and recharging must therefore only be carried out by authorised technicians.

Defrosting

Refrigerator compartment

¥ Defrosting the refrigerator compartment is automatic. The defrost water drains out through a trough into a container at the back of the appliance, above the motor compressor, where it evaporates.

¥ It is important to periodically clean the defrost water drain hole.

D037

Freezer compartment

¥ Remove the frost with a plastic scraper.

¥ Whenever the thickness of the frost exceeds 5 mm complete defrosting should be carried out.

Prooceed as follows:

¥ Remove any stored food, wrap it in several layers of newspaper and put it in a cool place.

¥ Pull out the plug from the wall socket or turn the thermostat knob to the ÇOÈ setting.

¥ Leave the door open, place a basin on the top shelf of the refrigerator compartment, under the drain hole, remove the plug as shown in the figure.

¥ When defrosting is completed, dry the interior thoroughly and refit the plug.

¥ Turn the thermostat knob back to the required setting or replace the plug in the power socket.

¥ Reload the previously removed food into the compartment.

Never use sharp metal tools to scrape off frost from the evaporator as you could damage it.

Do not use a mechanical device or any artificial means to speed up the thawing process other than those recommended by the manufacturer.

Cleaning

Never use metal objects for cleaning your appliance as it may get damaged.

NEVER use detergents, abrasive powders, highly perfumed cleaning products or wax polishes to clean the interior as these will damage the surface and leave a strong odour.

Clean the inside with warm water and bicarbonate of soda. Rinse and dry thoroughly.

To guarantee a safe operation of the fridge, once a year remove the ventilation grille at the base and clean the air channels with a vacuum cleaner.

When the appliance is not in use

Disconnect the appliance from the electricity supply.

Empty all foods and clean the appliance, leaving the doors ajar to prevent unpleasant smells.

Changing the light bulb

¥ Should the interior light fail to work, first switch off the appliance and disconnect from the electricity supply, then replace the bulb as follows:

1. unscrew the light cover securing screws.

2. unhook the moving part by pressing it as shown in the figure.

3. Replace the bulb by other with another with the same charcteristics.

Something not Working

Problems may be due to causes which can easily be solved before calling the Technical Service. Please follow these instructions:

SYMPTOM

Door does not close

It is too warm inside the refrigerator

It is too cold inside the refrigerator.

The compressor works continuously.

There is water inside/outside the refrigerator.

Water comes out on the floor.

Noises

SOLUTION

Weight surpasses the storage limit of the door shelf so spread weight more evenly or take some products out.

The appliance is not properly installed. Please look in the ÒBuilding-inÓ section.

Set a lower temperature.

Distribute the food products to allow cold air to circulate around them.

Make sure that the door is completely closed and that the insulating strip is complete and clean.

The temperature where the cabinet is placed is above normal room temperature.

Set a warmer temperature.

Turn the thermostat knob to a lower number.

The temperature where the cabinet is placed is above normal room temperature.

Check that the ventilation is sufficient and that the ventilation openings are unobstructed.

The cause could be the introduction of large quantities of food and/or frequent opening/closing of the door.

Sometimes is normal. During automatic defrosting frost thaws on the cooling plate.

Place the drain hose at the back of the cabinet above the drain bowl.

Sometimes this is normal. Temperature control may cause clicking sounds when the system is connected or disconnected.

The injected cooling gas may produce a gurgling sound while passing through the tubes.

The motor may cause a humming noise and/or slight bumping.

The insulation material used has a tendency to slighly increase noise levels, how ever it allows for much better insulation and a lower energy consumption.

Customer service and spare parts

If you cannot find the remedy for a malfunction in these operating instructions, please contact your dealer or our customer service department and consult the Guarantee card.
