Start-up and use
Starting the appliance
! After transportation of the appliance, carefully place it in
an upright position and wait at least 3 hours before
connecting it to the electricity mains, to make sure it
operates as it should.
• Clean the inside of the refrigerator well using warm
water and bicarbonate of soda before placing food
inside it.
• 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).
Freezer compartment
The first time the product is switched on, after you have
selected the desired temperature, we recommend the
SUPER FREEZE function is activated in order to cool
the compartment as quickly as possible. Food should
only be placed in the compartment once the SUPER
FREEZE function has finished its cycle.
Refrigerator compartment
The first time the product is switched on, after you have
selected the desired temperature, we recommend the
SUPER COOL function is activated in order to cool the
compartment as quickly as possible. Food should only
be placed in the compartment once the SUPER COOL
function has finished its cycle.
Navigating the display
Setting the temperatures:
If the product is switched on, the refrigerator and freezer
compartment displays will indicate the temperature
values set at that moment. To change them, simply press
the - and + buttons corresponding to the compartment
for which you wish to change the set temperature. More
specifically, each time the buttons are pressed, the
temperature increases or decreases and the level of
cold generated inside the compartment is adjusted
accordingly. The temperature values that may be
selected for the refrigerator compartment are +8°C,
+7°C, +6°C, +5°C, +4°C, +3°C and +2°C, while the
values that may be set for the freezer are -18°C, -19°C, -
20°C, -21°C, -22°C, -24°C and -26°C.
When the “ ECO ” function is active, the appliance
automatically adjusts the temperatures according to the
conditions inside and outside the refrigerator, in order to
minimise the amount of energy consumed; the activation
of this function is signalled by the ECO LED on the
keypad lighting up.
When the HOLIDAY function is active the temperature
may not be adjusted, however the appliance adjusts
itself automatically so that the optimal settings for the
situation are used: +12°C for the refrigerator
compartment and -18°C for the freezer compartment.
The activation of this function is indicated by the
HOLIDAY LED lighting up.
To activate and deactivate the functions, simply press
the relevant button; the function status will be signalled
by the corresponding LED on the keypad switching on
or off.
Several of the functions ( SUPER COOL, SUPER
FREEZE, ICE PARTY, ECO ) are incompatible with
others ( HOLIDAY, ...); remember that there is a pre-
established order of priority which will help you to
operate the product in the best possible way.
When the ICE PARTY function has finished, press the
ICE PARTY button to stop the corresponding LED from
flashing and to silence the sound alert. The flashing and
sound alerts indicate that the function is complete and
that the bottle should be removed from the freezer
compartment.
Child Lock
To activate the Child Lock function, press and hold the
Child Lock button for 2 seconds; the activation of this
button lock is confirmed by a short beep and the
illumination of the corresponding LED on the keypad. To
deactivate the function, press and hold the Child Lock
button for 2 seconds; deactivation will be confirmed by a
short beep and by the corresponding LED switching off.
