OPERATION

Switching on

1. Insert the plug into the wall socket.

2. Turn the Temperature regulator

clockwise to a medium setting.

Switching off

To turn off the appliance, turn the

temperature regulator to the "O" position.

Temperature regulation

The temperature is regulated

automatically.

1. Turn the Temperature regulator toward

lower settings to obtain the minimum

coldness.

2. Turn the Temperature regulator toward

higher settings to obtain the maximum

coldness.

A medium setting is generally

the most suitable.

However, the exact setting

should be chosen keeping in

mind that the temperature

inside the appliance depends

on:

• room temperature,

• how often the door is

opened,

• the quantity of food stored,

• the location of the appliance.

CAUTION! If the ambient

temperature is high or the

appliance is fully loaded, and

the appliance is set to the

lowest temperatures, it may run

continuously causing frost to

form on the rear wall. In this

case the dial must be set to a

higher temperature to allow

automatic defrosting and

therefore reduced energy

consumption.

DAILY USE

WARNING! Refer to Safety

chapters.

Freezing fresh food

The freezer compartment is suitable for

freezing fresh food and storing frozen and

deep-frozen food for a long time.

To freeze fresh foods it is not necessary to

change the medium setting.

However, for a faster freezing operation,

turn the temperature regulator toward

higher settings to obtain the maximum

coldness.

CAUTION! In this condition,

the refrigerator compartment

temperature might drop below

0°C. If this occurs reset the

temperature regulator to a

warmer setting.

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

2 hours on the higher settings.

In the event of accidental

defrosting, for example due to

a power failure, if the power

has been off for longer than 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).

Thawing

Deep-frozen or frozen food, prior to being

used, can be thawed in the refrigerator

compartment or at room temperature,

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.

Positioning the door shelves

To permit storage of food packages of

various sizes, the door shelves can be

placed at different heights.

1. Gradually pull the shelf in the direction

of the arrows until it comes free.

2. Reposition as required.

Movable shelves

The walls of the refrigerator are equipped

with a series of runners so that the

shelves can be positioned as desired.

Do not move the glass shelf

above the vegetable drawer to

ensure correct air circulation.

Temperature indicator

For proper storage of food the refrigerator

is equipped with the temperature indicator.

The symbol on the side wall of the

appliance indicates the coldest area in the

refrigerator.

If OK is displayed (A), put fresh food into

area indicated by symbol, if not (B), adjust

the temperature controller to a colder

setting and wait 12 hours before checking

the temperature indicator again.

After putting fresh food into the

appliance or after opening the

door repeatedly or for a long

period, it is normal for the

indicator not to show OK. Wait

at least 12 hours before

readjusting the temperature

controller.

HINTS AND TIPS

Normal operating sounds

The following sounds are normal during

operation:

• A faint gurgling and bubbling sound

from coils sound when refrigerant is

pumped.

• A whirring and pulsating sound from

the compressor when refrigerant is

pumped.

• A sudden cracking noise from inside

appliance caused by thermic dilatation

(a natural and not dangerous physical

phenomenon).

• A faint click noise from the temperature

regulator when the compressor

switches on or off.

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 electricity

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:

• Meat (all types): wrap in a suitable

packaging and place it on the glass

shelf above the vegetable drawer.

Store meat for at most 1-2 days.

• Cooked foods, cold dishes: cover and

place on any shelf.

• Fruit and vegetables: clean thoroughly

and place in a special drawer.

Bananas, potatoes, onions and garlic

must not be kept in the refrigerator if

not packed.

• Butter and cheese: place in a special

airtight container or wrap in an

aluminium foil or a polythene bag to

exclude as much air as possible.

• Bottles: close with a cap and place on

the door bottle shelf, or (if available) on

the bottle rack.

Hints for freezing

To help you make the most of the freezing

process, here are some important hints:

• the maximum quantity of food which

can be frozen in 24 hours is shown on

the rating plate;

• the freezing process takes 24 hours no

further food to be frozen should be

added during this period;

• freeze only 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 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;

• 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;

• it is advisable to show the freezing in

date on each individual pack to enable

you to keep tab of the storage time.

Hints for storage of frozen food

To obtain the best performance from this

appliance, you should:

• 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;

• do not exceed the storage period

indicated by the food manufacturer.

CARE AND CLEANING

WARNING! Refer to Safety

chapters.

This operation will improve the

performance of the appliance and save

electricity consumption.

Defrosting of the refrigerator

Frost is automatically eliminated from the

evaporator of the refrigerator compartment

every time the motor compressor stops,

during normal use. The defrost water

drains out through a trough into a special

container at the back of the appliance,

over the motor compressor, where it

evaporates.

It is important to periodically clean the

defrost water drain hole in the middle of

the refrigerator compartment channel to

prevent the water overflowing and dripping

onto the food inside.

Defrosting of the freezer

CAUTION! 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. A temperature

rise of the frozen food packs,

during defrosting, may shorten

their safe storage life.

About 12 hours prior to

defrosting, set a lower

temperature, in order to build

up sufficient chill reserve for

the interruption in operation.

A certain amount of frost will always form

on the freezer shelves and around the top

compartment.

Defrost the freezer when the frost layer

reaches a thickness of about 3-5 mm.

1. Switch off the appliance, or pull out

electrical plug from the wall socket.

2. Remove any stored food, wrap it in

several layers of newspaper and put it

in a cool place.

WARNING! Do not touch

frozen goods with wet

hands. Hands can freeze to

the goods.

3. Leave the door open.

In order to speed up the defrosting

process, place a pot of warm water in

the freezer compartment. In addition,

remove pieces of ice that break away

before defrosting is complete.

4. When defrosting is completed, dry the

interior thoroughly.

5. Switch on the appliance.

After three hours reload the previously

removed food into the freezer

compartment.

FUNZIONAMENTO

Accensione

1. Inserire la spina nella presa a muro.

2. Impostare il regolatore di temperatura

su un livello medio, ruotandolo in

senso orario.

Spegnimento

Per spegnere l’apparecchiatura, ruotare il

regolatore di temperatura in posizione "O".

Regolazione della temperatura

La temperatura viene regolata

automaticamente.

1. Impostare il regolatore di temperatura

su un livello basso per ottenere un

raffreddamento minimo.

2. Ruotare il regolatore di temperatura

verso l'impostazione massima per

aumentare l'intensità del

raffreddamento.

In condizioni normali, si

consiglia di utilizzare una

regolazione media.

Tuttavia, è importante ricordare

che la temperatura all'interno

dell'apparecchiatura dipende

dai seguenti fattori:

• temperatura ambiente,

• frequenza di apertura della

porta,

• quantità di alimenti

conservati,

• Posizione

dell'apparecchiatura.

ATTENZIONE! Se la

temperatura ambiente è

elevata o l'apparecchiatura è a

pieno carico, l'impostazione

alla temperatura minima può

causare l'attivazione ininterrotta

del compressore e la

formazione di brina sulla parete

posteriore. In questo caso,

impostare una temperatura più

elevata per consentire lo

sbrinamento automatico e

ridurre così il consumo di

energia.

UTILIZZO QUOTIDIANO

AVVERTENZA! Fare

riferimento ai capitoli sulla

sicurezza.

Congelamento di alimenti

freschi

Lo scomparto congelatore è adatto al

congelamento di alimenti freschi e alla

conservazione a lungo termine di alimenti

congelati e surgelati.

Per congelare i cibi freschi è possibile

mantenere la regolazione media.

Tuttavia, per ottenere un congelamento

più rapido, è possibile impostare il

regolatore di temperatura a un livello più

alto per aumentare l'intensità di

raffreddamento.

ATTENZIONE! In questa

condizione la temperatura dello

scomparto del frigorifero

potrebbe scendere al di sotto di

0°C. Qualora ciò accadesse, è

necessario reimpostare la

temperatura a un livello più

alto.

Conservazione dei surgelati

Al primo avvio o dopo un periodo di non

utilizzo, lasciare in funzione

l'apparecchiatura per almeno 2 ore con

una regolazione alta prima di introdurre gli

alimenti.

Se si verifica un'interruzione

della corrente elettrica di durata

superiore al "tempo di risalita"

indicato nella tabella dei dati

tecnici, il cibo scongelato deve

essere consumato rapidamente

o cucinato immediatamente e

quindi ricongelato (dopo il

raffreddamento).

Scongelamento

Prima dell'utilizzo, i cibi surgelati o

congelati possono essere scongelati nel

vano frigorifero o, per un processo più

veloce, a temperatura ambiente.

Gli alimenti divisi in piccole porzioni

possono essere cucinati direttamente,

senza essere prima scongelati: in questo

caso, tuttavia, la cottura durerà più a

lungo.

Posizionamento dei ripiani della

porta

Per facilitare l'introduzione di alimenti di

diverse dimensioni, i ripiani della porta

possono essere posizionati ad altezze

differenti.

1. Tirare gradualmente il ripiano nella

direzione indicata dalle frecce fino a

sbloccarlo.

2. Riposizionare secondo necessità.

Ripiani rimovibili

Le guide presenti sulle pareti del

frigorifero permettono di posizionare i

ripiani a diverse altezze.

Per garantire una corretta

circolazione dell'aria, non

spostare il ripiano in vetro

posto sopra il cassetto delle

verdure.

Indicatore della temperatura

Per una corretta conservazione del cibo, il

frigorifero è corredato di un indicatore di

temperatura. Il simbolo sulla parete

laterale dell'apparecchiatura indica la zona

più fredda del frigorifero.

Se appare OK (A), introdurre il cibo fresco

nello spazio indicato dal simbolo, se al

contrario appare (B), portare la manopola

di regolazione della temperatura a un

livello più basso e attendere 12 ore prima

di controllare di nuovo l'indicatore della

temperatura.

Dopo aver collocato gli alimenti

freschi nell'apparecchiatura o

dopo aver aperto la porta

ripetutamente per un intervallo

prolungato, è normale

l'indicatore non mostri OK.

Attendere almeno 12 ore prima

di regolare nuovamente il

controller della temperatura.

CONSIGLI E SUGGERIMENTI UTILI

Rumori normali durante il

funzionamento

I seguenti rumori sono da considerarsi

normali:

• Un gorgoglio o borbottio dalle

serpentine quando viene pompato il

refrigerante.

• Un ronzio o un rumore pulsante dal

compressore quando viene pompato il

refrigerante.
