Temperature regulation
The temperature within the appliance is controlled by the
Temperature regulator situated at the top of the appliance.
The temperature of the fridge compartment may be regula-
ted by rotating the Fridge temperature regulator, and may
vary between more or less +2°C and +8°C.
The temperature of the freezer compartment may be regu-
lated by rotating the Freezer temperature regulator, and
may vary between more or less -15°C and -24°C.
For a correct storage of the food the following tempera-
tures should be set:
Excessive temperature alarm
An increase in the temperature in the freezer compartment
(for example due to a power failure) is indicated by:
• flashing temperature
• freezer compartment flashing (Freezer compartment in-
dicator)
+5°C in the fridge
-18°C in the freezer.
During normal functioning the Temperature indicator
shows the temperature currently set.
To operate the appliance, proceed as follows:
• turn the Temperature regulator clockwise to obtain the
maximum coldness
• turn the Temperature regulator counter- clockwise to
obtain the minimum coldness.
The intermediate position is usually the most suitable.
However, the exact setting should be chosen keeping in
mind that the temperature inside the appliance depends
on:
• red illumination of display
• sounding of buzzer
• alarm symbol.
When normal conditions are restored:
• the acoustic signal shuts off
• the temperature value continues to flash
• the display illumination remains red.
When you press Function button / Alarm reset switch to
deactivate the alarm, the highest temperature reached in
the compartment appears on indicator
onds.
At this point the flashing stops and the display illumina-
tion changes over from red to white.
During the alarm phase, the buzzer can be switched off by
pressing Function button / Alarm reset switch.
The illumination of the display remains red until normal
storage conditions are restored.

First use
Cleaning the interior
Important! Do not use detergents or abrasive powders, as
these will damage the finish.
Before using the appliance for the first time, wash the inte-
rior and all internal accessories with lukewarm water and
some neutral soap so as to remove the typical smell of a
brand-new product, then dry thoroughly.
Daily use
Freezing fresh food
Ice-cube production
The freezer compartment is suitable for freezing fresh food
and storing frozen and deep-frozen food for a long time.
To freeze fresh food activate the Fast Freeze function at
least 24 hours before placing the food to be frozen in the
freezer compartment.
Place the fresh food to be frozen in the third compartment.
The maximum amount of food that can be frozen in 24
hours is specified on the rating plate, a label located on
the inside of the appliance.
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.
Important! Do not use metallic instruments to remove the
trays from the freezer.
Cold accumulators
The freezer contains at least one cold accumulator which
increases storage time in the event of a power cut or
breakdown.
The freezing process lasts 24 hours: during this period do
not add other food to be frozen.
Movable shelves
Storage of frozen food
When first starting-up or after a period out of use, before
putting the products in the compartment let the appliance
run at least 24 hours on the Fast Freezing setting.
If large quantities of food are to be stored, remove all
drawers and baskets from appliance and place food on
cooling shelves to obtain the best performance.
The walls of the refrigera-
tor are equipped with a
series of runners so that
the shelves can be posi-
tioned as desired.
For better use of space,
the front half-shelves can
lie over the rear ones.
Warning! Make sure that foods do not exceed the
load limit stated on the side of the upper section
(where applicable)
Positioning the door shelves
Important! In the event of accidental defrosting, for
example due to a power failure, if the power has been off
for longer that the value shown in the technical
characteristics chart under "rising time", the defrosted
food must be consumed quickly or cooked immediately
and then re-frozen (after cooling).
To permit storage of food
packages of various sizes,
the door shelves can be
placed at different heights.
Thawing
Deep-frozen or frozen food, prior to being used, can be
thawed in the refrigerator compartment or at room temper-
ature, depending on the time available for this operation.
Small pieces may even be cooked still frozen, directly
from the freezer: in this case, cooking will take longer.
Gradually pull the shelf in
the direction of the arrows
until it comes free, then
reposition as required.

Helpful hints and tips
• the maximum quantity of food which can be frozen in
24 hrs. is shown on the rating plate;
• the freezing process takes 24 hours. No further food to
be frozen should be added during this period;
• only freeze top quality, fresh and thoroughly cleaned,
foodstuffs;
• prepare food in small portions to enable it to be rapidly
and completely frozen and to make it possible subse-
quently 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;
• lean foods store better and longer than fatty ones; salt
reduces the storage life of food;
• water ices, if consumed immediately after removal from
the freezer compartment, can possibly cause the skin to
be freeze burnt;
Hints for energy saving
• Do not open the door frequently or leave it open longer
than absolutely necessary.
• If the ambient temperature is high and the Temperature
Regulator is set to low temperature and the appliance is
fully loaded, the compressor may run continuously,
causing frost or ice on the evaporator. If this happens,
set the Temperature Regulator toward warmer settings
to allow automatic defrosting and so a saving in elec-
tricity consumption.
Hints for fresh food refrigeration
To obtain the best performance:
• do not store warm food or evaporating liquids in the
refrigerator
• do cover or wrap the food, particularly if it has a strong
flavour
• position food so that air can circulate freely around it
Hints for refrigeration
Useful hints:
• it is advisable to show the freezing in date on each in-
dividual pack to enable you to keep tab of the storage
time.
Meat (all types) : wrap in polythene bags and place on the
glass shelf above the vegetable drawer.
For safety, store in this way only one or two days at the
most.
Cooked foods, cold dishes, etc..: these should be covered
and may be placed on any shelf.
Hints for storage of frozen food
To obtain the best performance from this appliance, you
should:
Fruit and vegetables: these should be thoroughly cleaned
and placed in the special drawer(s) provided.
Butter and cheese: these should be placed in special air-
tight containers or wrapped in aluminium foil or polythene
bags to exclude as much air as possible.
Milk bottles: these should have a cap and should be stor-
ed in the bottle rack on the door.
• make sure that the commercially frozen foodstuffs were
adequately stored by the retailer;
• be sure that frozen foodstuffs are transferred from the
foodstore to the freezer in the shortest possible time;
• not open the door frequently or leave it open longer
than absolutely necessary;
• once defrosted, food deteriorates rapidly and cannot be
refrozen;
Bananas, potatoes, onions and garlic, if not packed, must
not be kept in the refrigerator.
• do not exceed the storage period indicated by the food
manufacturer.
Hints for freezing
To help you make the most of the freezing process, here
are some important hints:
Care and cleaning
Caution! Unplug the appliance before carrying out
any maintenance operation.
This appliance contains hydrocarbons in its cooling
unit; maintenance and recharging must therefore
only be carried out by authorized technicians.

pressor stops, during normal use. The defrost water
drains out through a drain hole into a special container at
the back of the appliance, over the motor compressor,
where it evaporates.
Periodic cleaning
The equipment has to be cleaned regularly:
• clean the inside and accessories with lukewarm water
and some neutral soap.
• regularly check the door seals and wipe clean to ensure
they are clean and free from debris.
Defrosting of the freezer
The freezer compartment of this model, on the other hand,
is a "no frost" type. This means that there is no buildup of
frost when it is in operation, neither on the internal walls
nor on the foods.
The absence of frost is due to the continuous circulation
of cold air inside the compartment, driven by an automati-
cally controlled fan.
• rinse and dry thoroughly.
Important! Do not pull, move or damage any pipes and/or
cables inside the cabinet.
Never use detergents, abrasive powders, highly perfumed
cleaning products or wax polishes to clean the interior as
this will damage the surface and leave a strong odour.
Periods of non-operation
When the appliance is not in use for long periods, take the
following precautions:
• disconnect the appliance from electricity supply
• remove all food
• defrost (if foreseen) and clean the appliance and all ac-
cessories
• leave the door/doors ajar to prevent unpleasant smells.
If the cabinet will be kept on, ask somebody to check it
once in a while to prevent the food inside from spoiling in
case of a power failure.
Clean the condenser (black grill) and the compressor at
the back of the appliance with a brush. This operation will
improve the performance of the appliance and save elec-
tricity consumption.
Important! Take care of not to damage the cooling system.
Many proprietary kitchen surface cleaners contain chemi-
cals that can attack/damage the plastics used in this appli-
ance. For this reason it is recommended that the outer
casing of this appliance is only cleaned with warm water
with a little washing-up liquid added.
After cleaning, reconnect the equipment to the mains sup-
ply.
Defrosting the refrigerator
Frost is automatically eliminated from the evaporator of
the refrigerator compartment every time the motor com-
What to do if…
During operation of the appliance some smaller but an-
noying trouble can often occur, which does not require
calling a technician out. In the following chart information
is given about them to avoid unnecessary charges on
service.
Important! The appliance operates discontinuously, so the
stopping of compressor does not mean being no current.
That is why you must not touch the electrical parts of the
appliance before breaking the circuit.
Important! The operation of the appliance goes with
certain sounds (compressor and circulating sound). This
not means a trouble, but a normal operation.
