FastFreeze function
The FastFreeze function is used to
perform pre-freezing and fast freezing in
sequence in the freezer compartment.
This function accelerates the freezing of
fresh food and, at the same time, protects
food products already stored in the freezer
compartment from undesirable warming.
To freeze fresh food activate
the FastFreeze function at least
24 hours before placing the
food to complete pre-freezing.
To activate FastFreeze function press the
FastFreeze button. The FastFreeze
indicator switches on.
This function stops
automatically after 52 hours.
It is possible to deactivate the function at
any time by pressing FastFreeze button
again. The FastFreeze indicator switches
off.

DAILY USE
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 up 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.
Vegetable drawers
There are special drawers in the bottom
part of the appliance suitable for storage
of fruits and vegetables.
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), wait at
least 12 hours and check if it is OK (A).
If it is still not OK (B), adjust the setting
control to a colder setting.

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 food activate the
FastFreeze function at least 24 hours
before placing the food to be frozen in the
freezer compartment.
Store the fresh food evenly distributed in
the first compartment or drawer from the
top.
The maximum amount of food that can be
frozen without adding other fresh food
during 24 hours is specified on the rating
plate (a label located inside the
appliance).
When the freezing process is complete,
the appliance automatically returns to the
previous temperature setting (see
"FastFreeze Function").
9
In this condition, the
temperature inside the
refrigerator might change
slightly.
Storage of frozen food
When activating an appliance for the first
time or after a period out of use, before
putting the products in the compartment
let the appliance run at least 3 hours with
the FastFreeze function switched on.
The freezer drawers ensure that it is quick
and easy to find the food package you
want. If large quantities of food are to be
stored, remove all drawers and place the
food on shelves.
Keep the food no closer than 15 mm from
the door.
CAUTION! 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 on
rating plate under "rising time",
the defrosted food must be
consumed quickly or cooked
immediately then cooled and
then re-frozen.
Thawing
Deep-frozen or frozen food, prior to being
consumed, can be thawed in the
refrigerator or inside a plastic bag under
cold water.
This operation depends on the time
available and on the type of food. Small
pieces may even be cooked still frozen.
Ice-cube production
This appliance is equipped with one or
more trays for the production of ice-cubes.
Do not use metallic instruments
to remove the trays from the
freezer.
1. Fill these trays with water.
2. Put the ice trays in the freezer
compartment.
HINTS AND TIPS
Hints for energy saving
• Freezer: The internal configuration of
the appliance is the one that ensures
the most efficient use of energy.
• Fridge: Most efficient use of energy is
ensured in the configuration with the
drawers in the bottom part of the
appliance and shelves evenly
distributed. Position of the door bins
does not affect energy consumption.
• Do not open the door frequently or
leave it open longer than necessary.
• Freezer: The colder the temperature
setting, the higher the energy
consumption.
• Fridge: Do not set too high temperature
to save energy unless it is required by
the characteristics of the food.
• If the ambient temperature is high and
the temperature control is set to low
temperature and the appliance is fully
loaded, the compressor may run
continuously, causing frost or ice
formation on the evaporator. In this
case, set the temperature control
toward higher temperature to allow
automatic defrosting and to save
energy this way.
• Ensure a good ventilation. Do not cover
the ventilation grilles or holes.
