PRECAUTIONS AND GENERAL RECOMMENDATIONS

33051-gb.fm5 Page 14 Tuesday, December 22, 1998 3:52 PM

This appliance is a refrigerator with a 4 star

freezer compartment.

Defrosting of the refrigerator compartment is

performed automatically.

The refrigerator can operate in room

temperatures between +10°C and +38°C.

Optimal performance of the appliance depends

on the climatic class, which is indicated on the

rating plate.

Switching on the appliance

Plug in the appliance.

The thermostat knob in the refrigerator

compartment serves to adjust the temperature in

both the refrigerator and freezer compartment if

your appliance is equipped with a single

compressor.

Refrigerator compartment and freezer

compartment temperature adjustment is

independent in the case of appliances with two

compressors (see product description sheet).

Temperature adjustment

1. To ensure correct operation and the best

possible food storage in both compartments,

set the thermostat in accordance with the

indications on the enclosed product

description sheet.

2. To alter the temperature in the refrigerator

andfreezercompartmentssetthethermostat

knob to:

•lower numbers 1-2 (MIN) if you want to

INCREASE the temperature;

•higher numbers 5-7 (MAX) if you want to

DECREASE the temperature.

Thermostat setting zswitches off all functions of

the appliance including the interior light.

Note:

The room air temperature, the number of times

the door is opened and the position of the

appliance will affect the temperature in the

refrigerator and freezer compartments. Take

thesefactors intoconsiderationwhenyouset the

thermostat. For example if the machine is

operated in a room with high temperature you

may need to set the thermostat to a low number.

Using the refrigerator compartment

Position the food as shown in the figure.

A Cooked food

B Fish, meat

C Fruit and vegetables

D Bottles

E Butter

F Dairy products, cheese

Notes:

•The space between the shelves and the rear

wall of the refrigerator compartment must be

unobstructed to allow air circulation.

•Do not place the food in direct contact with the

rear wall of the refrigerator compartment.

•Do not place hot food in the refrigerator.

•Store liquids in closed containers.

•Storage of vegetables with high water

contents can lead to the formation of

condensation: this will not affect the correct

operation of the appliance.

HOW TO USE THE REFRIGERATOR COMPARTMENT

33051-gb.fm5 Page 15 Tuesday, December 22, 1998 3:52 PM

The appliance has a 4 star freezer

compartment in which food canbe stored for

the time indicated on the packaging. The

freezer can also be used to freeze fresh food

by positioning it on the racks; place frozen

food in the lower basket so that there is no

contact with fresh food that has yet to be

frozen.

The quantity of fresh food that can be frozen

in 24 hours is shown on the rating plate.

Freezing fresh food

If your appliance is equipped with a single

compressor:

•Set the thermostat knob to 2-3.

•If the appliance is equipped with a freeze

button, press it to activate the function (the

yellow indicator light will switch on). Also the

red indicator light (models with control panel)

may switch on. The red indicator light will

switch off when the freezer compartment has

reached the optimum temperature.

Note:

The freeze function makes it possible to freeze

fresh food while maintaining the temperature in

the refrigerator compartment at the optimum

level.

Rapid freezing function

If your appliance is equipped with two

compressors,activate the rapidfreezing function

6 hours before inserting fresh food to obtain the

maximum freezing power as indicated on the

rating plate.

Important:

•Before freezing, wrap and seal fresh food in:

aluminium foil, cling film, air and water-tight

plastic bags, polythene containers with lids

or special freezer containers.

•Arrange the fresh food in the upper area of

the freezer compartment, leaving sufficient

space around each pack for the air to

circulate.

•The food willbe completely frozenin 24 hours.

•Press the rapid freezing button to switch off

the function (yellow indicator light switches

off).

Temperature alarm function

(control panel versions)

When the appliance is running normally or when

food is being frozen, the red led may switch on

(in certain models this will be accompanied also

by an audible signal) informing you that the

temperature in the freezer compartment is too

high.

This may occur in the following situations:

•whenthe applianceisswitched onforthefirst

time;

•when it is switched on following defrosting

and cleaning;

•if you load too much food at room

temperature;

•if the freezer door has been left ajar;

•ifthe“freezerthermostat knob”on the control

panel is advanced towards the “MAX”setting

(intense cold);

To mute the acoustic alarm press the “Fast

freeze”button.

When temperature in the freezer compartment

has fallen to acceptable levels, the red indicator

LED will switch off automatically. At this point

remember to switch off the “Fast freeze”

function.

HOW TO USE THE FREEZER COMPARTMENT

33051-gb.fm5 Page 16 Tuesday, December 22, 1998 3:52 PM

Note:

The temperature in the freezer compartment is

maintained at the ideal level for the storage of

frozen food also during power failures of limited

duration, although it is advisable to avoid

opening the freezer compartment door during

such periods.

Important:

Thetablealongsideshowstherecommended

maximum storage time for frozen fresh

foods.

When purchasing frozen food products:

•ensure that the packaging is not damaged

(frozen food in damaged packaging may

have deteriorated). Avoid packages that are

swollen or show evidence of damp areas

indicating that the food may have thawed

partially during its period of storage.

•When shopping, leave frozen food

purchases till last and transport the products

in a thermally insulated cool bag.

•Place the items in the freezer compartment

as soon as you get home.

•If food has thawed, even partially, do not re-

freeze it. Consume within 24 hours.

•Avoid subjecting foods to temperature

variations. Observe the “best before”date on

the package.

•Always observe the storage information on

the package.

Removing the baskets

•Pull out fully, raise slightly and remove.

Note:

The freezer compartment can be used without

the two upper baskets to increase storage space

for large products. The lower basket must not be

removed.

Place the food products directly on the racks.

After inserting food, ensure that the freezer

compartment door closes properly.

Making ice cubes

•Pour water into the ice tray up to 2/3 full and

place it in the freezer compartment.

•If the ice tray sticks to the shelves, do not use

pointed or sharp objects to detach it.

•Bend the ice tray slightly to remove the

cubes.

HOW TO USE THE FREEZER COMPARTMENT

MONTHS FOOD

33051-gb.fm5 Page 17 Tuesday, December 22, 1998 3:52 PM

Before servicing or cleaning the appliance,

unplug it from the mains or disconnect the

electricity supply.

Defrost the freezer compartment once or

twice a year or when the formation of ice on

the racks is excessive.

It is perfectly normal for ice to form on the

racks.The amount andspeed at which theice

forms depends on room air temperature and

humidity and the frequency with which the

doorisopened.Iceformationis concentrated

on the racks at the top of the freezer

compartment.

If possible, defrost the freezer compartment

when it is nearly empty.

•Remove the food from the freezer

compartment, wrap in a newspaper and

grouptogether in a cool place or in a portable

cooler.

•Leave the freezer door open so that the ice

can thaw.

•Pull out the defrost water drain and place a

tray below it.

•Clean the interior of the freezer compartment

with a sponge and warm water and/or neutral

detergent. Do not use abrasive products.

•Rinse the interior and dry thoroughly.

•Fit the drain back into place.

•Put the food back into the freezer

compartment.

•Close the compartment door.

•Plug in the appliance / reconnect the

electricity supply.

•Switch the appliance on.

The refrigerator compartment must be

cleaned periodically.

Defrosting of the refrigerator compartment is

completely automatic.

Droplets of water on the rear wall of the

refrigerator compartment indicate that the

periodic automatic defrost cycle is in progress.

The defrost water is routed to a drain outlet and

into a container on the compressor from which it

evaporates.

Clean the defrost water drain outlet regularly

using the tool supplied with the appliance. This

precautionensuresthatdefrostwaterisremoved

correctly from the interior of the refrigerator

compartment.

Before cleaning the refrigerator compartment,

unplug the appliance from the mains.
