Start-up and use
Starting the appliance
Using the refrigerator to its full
potential
! Before starting the appliance, follow the
installation instructions (see Installation).
! Before connecting the appliance, clean the
compartments and accessories well with lukewarm
water and bicarbonate.
! The appliance comes with a motor protection control
system which makes the compressor start
approximately 8 minutes after being switched on. The
compressor also starts each time the power supply is
cut off whether voluntarily or involuntarily (blackout).
1. Set the FREEZER OPERATION knob on
.
2. Insert the plug into the socket and ensure that the
green POWER indicator light illuminates.
3. Turn the FREEZER OPERATION knob to an average
value and press the SUPER FREEZE button (rapid
freezing): the SUPER FREEZE indicator light will
illuminate. Once the refrigerator has reached the
optimal temperature, the indicator light goes out and
you can begin food storage.
4. Turn the REFRIGERATOR OPERATION knob to an
average value. After a few hours you will be able to
put food in the refrigerator.
GB
• Use the REFRIGERATOR OPERATION knob to adjust
the temperature (see Description).
• Press the SUPER COOL button (rapid cooling) to
lower the temperature quickly. For example, when
you place a large number of new food items inside a
fridge the internal temperature will rise slightly. The
function quickly cools the groceries by temporarily
reducing the temperature until it reaches the ideal
level.
• Place only cold or lukewarm foods in the compartment,
not hot foods (see Precautions and tips).
• Remember that cooked foods do not last longer than
raw foods.
• Do not store liquids in open containers. They will
increase humidity in the refrigerator and cause
condensation to form.
• SHELVES: with or without grill. Due to the special
guides the shelves are removable and the height
is adjustable, allowing easy storage of large
containers and food.
Chiller system
No Frost
It is recognisable by
aeration cells located
on the back walls of the
compartments.
The No Frost system
circulates cold air
continuously to collect
humidity and prevent
ice and frost formation.
The system maintains
an optimal humidity level in the compartment,
preserving the original quality of the food, preventing
the food from sticking together and making defrosting
a thing of the past. Do not block the aeration cells by
placing food or containers in direct contact with the
refrigerating back panel. Close bottles and wrap food
tightly.
FRUIT and VEGETABLE bin
The salad crispers fitted inside the fridge have been
specially designed for the purpose of keeping fruit
and vegetables fresh and crisp. Open the humidity
regulator (position B) if you want to store food in a less
humid environment, or close it (position A) to store
food in a more humid environment.

GB
Using the freezer to its full potential
• Use the FREEZER OPERATION knob to adjust the
temperature (see Description).
• Do not re-freeze food that is defrosting or that has already
been defrosted. These foods must be cooked and eaten
(within 24 hours).
• Fresh food that needs to be frozen must not come into
contact with food that has already been defrosted.
• Do not place glass bottles which contain liquids, and
which are corked or hermetically sealed in the freezer
because they could break.
• The maximum quantity of food that may be frozen daily is
indicated on the plate containing the technical properties
located on the bottom left side of the refrigerator
compartment (for example: Kg/24h: 4).
• The top drawer can be used to store several types of
food (semifreddo frozen desserts, ice creams and
alcohol) at the most suitable temperature; the lower
drawer (see overall view) is designed to store frozen
food in normal conditions.
To freeze food (if the freezer is already in operation),
deactivate the TVZ and empty the top drawer, press
the rapid-freezing SUPER FREEZE button (the
corresponding LED lights up), place the food inside
and close the drawer. The function is deactivated
automatically after 24 hours or when the optimal
temperatures have been reached (LED switches off).
The food may now be moved to the lower drawer (so
that the TVZ functions may be used) or left in the TVZ
compartment which, when left inactive, will function
as a normal storage compartment.
! to avoid blocking the air circulation inside the freezer
compartment, it is advisable not to obstruct the
ventilation holes with food or containers.
! Do not open the door during freezing.
! If there is a power cut or malfunction, do not open the
freezer door. This will help maintain the temperature
inside the freezer, ensuring that foods are conserved for
at least 9 -14 hours.
TVZ compartment
The TVZ is a special compartment in the freezer which
allows the user to choose between 5 different
operating modes that may be set according to
specific requirements and the type of food stored
inside. The temperature settings available are 0°C, 6°C, -12°C and -18°C; these options are displayed on
the control panel (FREEZER COMPARTMENT knob).
The TVZ has an independent control feature; it may
also be deactivated using the control panel, for use as
a normal freezer compartment.

Maintenance and care
Switching the appliance off
Holiday function
During cleaning and maintenance it is necessary to
disconnect the appliance from the electricity supply:
If you are going on holiday, you do not have to switch
the appliance off; it features a low-energy function
which keeps the temperature of the refrigerator
compartment at approximately 12°C (you may, for
example, wish to protect cosmetics and beauty
products from the heat). The freezer temperature
should be set to the minimum value, in order to
preserve the food inside it effectively.
To enable the function: set the REFRIGERATOR
1. set the FREEZER OPERATION knob on
2. pull the plug out of the socket
! If this procedure is not followed, the alarm may
sound. This alarm does not indicate a malfunction. To
restore normal operation, it is sufficient to set the
FREEZER OPERATION knob on the desired value. To
disconnect the appliance, follow point 1 and 2.
Cleaning the appliance
• The external and internal parts, as well as the
rubber seals may be cleaned using a sponge that
has been soaked in lukewarm water and
bicarbonate of soda or neutral soap. Do not use
solvents, abrasive products, bleach or ammonia.
• The removable accessories may be soaked in
warm water and soap or dishwashing liquid. Rinse
and dry them carefully.
• The back of the appliance may collect dust which
can be removed by delicately using the hose of a
vacuum cleaner set on medium power. The
appliance must be switched off and the plug must
be pulled out before cleaning the appliance.
• During the cleaning of the slide rails for the drawers
in the freezer compartment, it may happen that the
automatic drawer closure mechanism is
deactivated. To reactivate it, simply close the
drawer a little more forcefully than is usually
necessary.
Avoiding mould and unpleasant odours
• The appliance is manufactured with hygienic
materials which are odour free. In order to maintain
an odour free refrigerator and to prevent the
formation of stains, food must always be covered or
sealed properly.
• If you want to switch the appliance off for an
extended period of time, clean the inside and leave
the doors open.

Precautions and tips
GB
! The appliance was designed and manufactured in
compliance with international safety standards. The
following warnings are provided for safety reasons and
must be read carefully.
This appliance complies with the following
Community Directives:
- 73/23/EEC of 19/02/73 (Low Voltage) and
subsequent amendments;
-89/336/EEC of 03.05.89 (Electromagnetic
Compatibility) and subsequent amendments;
- 2002/96/CE..
General safety
• The appliance was designed for domestic use inside the
home and is not intended for commercial or industrial use.
• The appliance must be used to store and freeze food
products by adults only and according to the instructions
in this manual.
• The appliance must not be installed outdoors, even in
covered areas. It is extremely dangerous to leave the
appliance exposed to rain and storms.
• Do not touch the appliance with bare feet or with wet or
moist hands and feet.
• Do not touch the internal cooling elements: this could
cause skin abrasions or frost/freezer burns.
• When unplugging the appliance always pull the plug from
the mains socket, do not pull on the cable.
• Before cleaning and maintenance, always switch off the
appliance and disconnect it from the electrical supply. It is
not sufficient to set the temperature adjustment knobs on
OFF (appliance off) to eliminate all electrical contact.
• In the case of a malfunction, under no circumstances
should you attempt to repair the appliance yourself.
Repairs carried out by inexperienced persons may cause
injury or further malfunctioning of the appliance.
• Do not use utensils other than the scraper provided, or
electrical equipment which is not of the type specified by
the manufacturer, inside the frozen food storage
compartments.
• Do not put ice cubes taken directly from the freezer into
your mouth.
• Do not allow children to tamper with the controls or play
with the appliance. Under no circumstance should they be
allowed to sit on the bins or to hang from the door.
• Keep packaging material out of the reach of children! It can
become a choking or suffocation hazard.
• When closing the refrigerator doors, pay attention to the
position of the upright (see figure).
• Make sure that excessive volumes
of food are not placed in the upper
part of the freezer compartment, in
the space reserved for the ice tray
(where present).
8
Disposal
• Observe local environmental standards when
disposing packaging material for recycling
purposes.
• The European Directive 2002/96/EC on Waste
Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE), requires
that old household electrical appliances must not be
disposed of in the normal unsorted municipal waste
stream. Old appliances must be collected separately
in order to optimise the recovery and recycling of the
materials they contain and reduce the impact on
human health and the environment. The crossed out
“wheeled bin” symbol on the product reminds you of
your obligation, that when you dispose of the
appliance it must be separately collected.
Consumers should contact their local authority or
retailer for information concerning the correct
disposal of their old appliance.
Respecting and conserving the
environment
• Install the appliance in a fresh and well-ventilated
room. Ensure that it is protected from direct sunlight
and do not place it near heat sources.
• Try to avoid keeping the door open for long periods
or opening the door too frequently in order to
conserve energy.
• Do not fill the appliance with too much food:
cold air must circulate freely for food to be preserved
properly. If circulation is impeded, the compressor
will work continuously.
• Do not place hot food directly into the refrigerator.
The internal temperature will increase and force the
compressor to work harder and will consume more
energy.
• Defrost the appliance if ice forms (see Maintenance).
A thick layer of ice makes cold transference to food
products more difficult and results in increased
energy consumption.
• Regularly check the door seals and wipe clean to
ensure they are free of debris and to prevent cold air
from escaping (see Maintenance).
Troubleshooting
If the appliance does not work, before calling for Assistance (see Assistance), check for a solution from the following list.
