GETTING YOUR APPLIANCE READY FOR USE

NOTICE
After the appliance has been delivered, stand it in the
upright position and wait approximately 3 hours be-
fore connecting it to the electrical outlet to guarantee
that it operates properly.

Before placing foodstuffs in the refrigerator or freezer, clean
the interior well with warm water and baking soda.

Motor protection delay

This model is provided with a motor protection control
system. Therefore, if the compressor does not start
immediately upon installation, do not worry as it will
start automatically after approximately 8 minutes.
This is also what will happen every time the power
supply is interrupted, both due to a power failure or
should you switch it off yourself (to clean or defrost
your freezer, for example).

After plugging the appliance into a suitable electricity

socket, ensure the display is on with the “

OFF

” words in

the indication spaces concerning the two compartments

(fridge and freezer).

Freezer compartment

When the appliance is switched on (by pressing the 

ON/

OFF

 button “

A

” for more than two seconds), the freezer

compartment is automatically brought to the standard setting

of 

- 18°C

. We recommend you enable the 

SUPER FREEZE

function to speed up the cooling process of the compartment;

when the latter has reached its optimal temperature, the

function shall be automatically disabled and you may place

your frozen food inside the compartment.

Refrig ompartment

When the appliance is switched on, the refrigerator
compartment is brought to the standard setting of 

+ 5°C

.

We recommend you enable the 

SUPER COOL

 function to

speed up the cooling process of the compartment: after a
few hours, you may place food inside the refrigerator.

HOW TO USE THE DISPLAY

Firstly, take all the advice that appears in the form of scrolling
text on the display: it will be of use to you, especially when
you make your first settings.

Temperature settings:

If the appliance is switched off, the temperatures set at that
time will appear in the indication spaces on the display
concerning the refrigeration and freezer compartments (

G

for the refrigerator and H for the freezer). To change these,
press the 

MODE

 (

D

) button as many times as necessary for

the figure corresponding to the temperature set to flash in
the relative indication space.  Now you can select the new
temperature to set by pressing the 

ADJUST/

 (

E

) (to

increase the temperature displayed by one degree) and/or

ADJUST/SELECT -

 (

F

) (to decrease the temperature displayed

by one degree) buttons. Once you have reached the desired
temperature, you should set it by pressing the 

MODE

 (

D

) button

again to confirm the selection. Now the new temperature will
stop flashing and will remain fixed in the relevant indication space
on the display to indicate that the new setting has been made.
NOTE: if you do not confirm your selection by pressing the

MODE 

button within ten seconds of the last action

performed on the display, the latter shall go back to displaying
the temperature previously in being and indicate that no
new temperature has been set.
The temperatures set automatically are 

+5°C

 for the refrigerator

compartment and 

-18°C

 for the freezer compartment and these

are the standard temperatures for food storage.
The settable temperatures for the refrigerator compartment
range from 

+2°C

 to 

+8°C

, whereas those for the freezer

compartment range from 

-18°C

 to 

-26°C

. When the ECO

function is enabled, the possible settings are instead closer

to the standard ones for food storage: from 

+4°C

 to 

+6°C

for the refrigerator compartment and from 

-18°C

 to 

-20°C

for the freezer compartment. The possible increases and
decrease are still of 1°C.
When the 

HOLIDAY 

function is enabled, temperature

regulations cannot be made, but the appliance automatically
sets itself to the best setting for the situation: 

+12°C

 for the

refrigerator compartment and 

-18°C

 for the freezer

compartment.
