• 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.

5. DAILY USE

WARNING!

Refer to Safety chapters.

5.1 Cleaning the interior

Before using the appliance for the first

time, the interior and all internal

accessories should be washed with

lukewarm water and some neutral soap

to remove the typical smell of a brand-

new product, then dried thoroughly.

CAUTION!

Do not use detergents,

abrasive powders, chlorine

or oil-based cleaners as they

will damage the finish.

5.2 Positioning the door

shelves

To permit storage of food packages of

various sizes, the door shelves can be

placed at different heights.

ENGLISH 7

1. Gradually pull the shelf up until it

comes free.

2. Reposition as required.

5.3 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.

5.4 Freezing and storage of

frozen food

The freezer compartment is suitable for

freezing fresh food and storing frozen

and deep-frozen food for a long time.

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.

To freeze fresh food place it in the

middle 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.

The freezing process lasts 24 hours,

during this period do not add other food

to be frozen.

When the freezing process is completed,

you can restore previously set

temperature.

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).

5.5 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.

5.6 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.

6. HINTS AND TIPS

6.1 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.

6.2 Hints for energy saving

• Do not open the door frequently or

leave it open longer than absolutely

necessary.

6.3 Hints for fresh food

refrigeration

• Do not store warm food or

evaporating liquids in the refrigerator.

• Cover or wrap the food, particularly if

it has a strong flavour.

• Position food so that air can circulate

freely around it.

6.4 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.

6.5 Hints for freezing

• Freeze only top quality, fresh and

thoroughly cleaned food products.

• For more efficient freezing and

thawing divide food into small

portions.

• Wrap the food in aluminium foil or

polythene. Make sure that the

packages are airtight.

• To avoid increase in temperature of

already frozen food, do not place

fresh unfrozen food directly next to it.

• Lean foods store better and longer

than fatty ones. Salt reduces the

storage life of food.

• Do not eat ice cubes, water ices or ice

lollies immediately after taking them

out of the freezer. Risk of frostbites.

• It is advisable to show the freezing

date on each individual pack to

enable you to keep tab of the storage

time.

6.6 Hints for storage of frozen

food

• Make sure that the commercially

frozen food products were adequately

stored by the retailer.

• Make sure that frozen foodstuffs are

transferred from the food store to the

freezer in the shortest possible time.

• Once defrosted, food deteriorates

rapidly and cannot be refrozen.

• Do not exceed the storage period

indicated by the food manufacturer.

7. CARE AND CLEANING

WARNING!

Refer to Safety chapters.

7.1 General warnings

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.

The accessories and parts of

the appliance are not

suitable for washing in a

dishwasher.

7.2 Periodic cleaning

CAUTION!

Do not pull, move or damage

any pipes and/or cables

inside the appliance.

CAUTION!

Do not damage the cooling

system.

The equipment has to be cleaned

regularly:

1. Clean the inside and accessories

with lukewarm water and some

neutral soap.

2. Regularly check the door seals and

wipe them clean to ensure they are

clean and free from debris.

3. Rinse and dry thoroughly.

4. If accessible, clean the condenser

and the compressor at the back of

the appliance with a brush.

This will improve the performance of

the appliance and save electricity

consumption.

7.3 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.

7.4 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.
