4Safety information

Environment Protection

This appliance does not contain gasses which could damage the ozone layer, in either its

refrigerant circuit or insulation materials. The appliance shall not be discarded together

with the urban refuse and rubbish. The insulation foam contains flammable gases: the

appliance shall be disposed according to the applicable regulations to obtain from your

local authorities. Avoid damaging the cooling unit, especially at the rear near the heat

exchanger. The materials used on this appliance marked by the symbol are recyclable.

Operation

Switching on

Insert the plug into the wall socket.

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 automatically regulated.

To operate the appliance, proceed as follows:

• turn the Temperature regulator toward lower settings to obtain the minimum coldness.

• 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.

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.

First use

Cleaning the interior

Before using the appliance for the first time, wash the interior 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.

Do not use detergents or abrasive powders, as these will damage the finish.

Operation 5

Daily use

Movable shelves

The walls of the refrigerator are equipped with a

series of runners so that the shelves can be posi-

tioned as desired.

Positioning the door shelves

To permit storage of food packages of various

sizes, the door shelves can be placed at different

heights.

To make these adjustments proceed as follows:

gradually pull the shelf in the direction of the ar-

rows until it comes free, then reposition as re-

quired.

Helpful hints and tips

Normal Operating Sounds

• You may hear a faint gurgling and a bubbling sound when the refrigerant is pumped

through the coils or tubing. This is correct.

• When the compressor is on, the refrigerant is being pumped around and you will hear

a whirring sound and a pulsating noise from the compressor. This is correct.

• The thermic dilatation might cause a sudden cracking noise. It is natural, not dangerous

physical phenomenon. This is correct.

• When the compressor switches on or switches off, you will hear a faint "click" of the

temperature regulator. This is correct.

6Daily use

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 tem-

perature 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 inelectricity 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 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.

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 airtight 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 stored in the bottle rack on the door.

Bananas, potatoes, onions and garlic, if not packed, must not be kept in the refrigerator.

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.

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.

• rinse and dry thoroughly.

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.

Care and cleaning 7

Clean the condenser (black grill) and the compressor at the back of the appliance with a

brush or a vacuum cleaner. This operation will improve the performance of the appliance

and save electricity consumption.

Take care of not to damage the cooling system.

Many proprietary kitchen surface cleaners contain chemicals that can attack/damage the

plastics used in this appliance. 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 supply.

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 over-

flowing and dripping onto the food inside. Use the

special cleaner provided, which you will find al-

ready inserted into the drain hole.

Periods of non-operation

When the appliance is not in use for long periods, take the following precautions:

1. disconnect the appliance from electricity supply

2. remove all food

3. defrost and clean the appliance and all accessories

4. leave the door/doors open 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.
