Start-up and use
Starting the appliance
!
Before starting the appliance, follow the
installation instructions
(
see Installation
).
!
Before connecting the appliance, clean the
compartments and accessories well with lukewarm water
and bicarbonate.
!
The appliance comes with a motor protection control
system which makes the compressor start approximately
8 minutes after being switched on. The compressor also
starts each time the power supply is cut off whether
voluntarily or involuntarily (blackout).
Once you have plugged the appliance into the mains
socket, make sure the display is on (the FREEZER
COMPARTMENT knob must not be on Off).
Freezer compartment
When you turn the appliance on (by turning the
FREEZER and APPLIANCE ON/OFF Knob to the
required freezer compartment operating temperature),
we recommend you enable the SUPER FREEZE function
to speed up the cooling process inside the
compartment; when the latter has reached the optimal
temperature, the function will be disabled and you may
place the frozen foods inside the freezer.
Refrigerator compartment
When you turn the refrigerator compartment on (by
turning REFRIGERATOR OPERATION Knob to the
required refrigerator compartment operating
temperature), we recommend you enable the SUPER
COOL function to speed up the cooling process inside
the compartment: after a few hours, you may place food
inside the refrigerator.
A.I.R. SYSTEM
It is recognizable due to the presence of the mechanism
on the top part of the refrigerator compartment (
see
diagram
).
A
B
The A.I.R. System maintains a constant fridge
temperature to keep food fresher for longer and will
quickly restore the temperature to the correct level, even
if the door is opened frequently: the blown air (A) is
cooled when it comes into contact with the cold wall,
SHELVES
: with or without grill.
Due to the special guides the
shelves are removable and the
height is adjustable (
see
diagram
), allowing easy storage
of large containers and food.
Height can be adjusted without
complete removal of the shelf.
MULTI-USE
*
bin: to store food
(such as cold meats) for a long
time and also prevent odours
from lingering in the refrigerator.
It can be removed for use and it
may be shifted sideways to
optimise space (
see diagram
).
TEMPERATURE
Indicator light
*
: to identify the coldest
area in the refrigerator.
1. Check that OK appears clearly on the indicator light
(
see diagram
).
2. If the word OK does not appear it means that the
temperature is too high: adjust the REFRIGERATOR
OPERATION knob to a higher position (colder) and
wait approximately 10 hours until the temperature has
been stabilised.
3. Check the indicator light again: if necessary, readjust it
following the initial process. If large quantities of food
have been added or if the refrigerator door has been
opened frequently, it is normal for the indicator not to
show OK. Wait at least 10 hours before adjusting the
REFRIGERATOR OPERATION knob to a higher
setting.

whereas the hotter air (B) is sucked up (

).
The back wall may be covered in frost or droplets of
water, depending on whether the compressor is in
operation or whether it is paused.
