ACTIVE zERO
DRAWER
The Active Zero compartment is specifically
designed to maintain a low temperature and the
correct humidity to preserve fresh food for longer
(for example, meat, fish, fruits and winter
vegetables).
TURNING ON AND TURNING OFF
THE COMPARTMENT
The internal temperature of the compartment is
approximately 0° when the compartment is turned
on.
To activate/
deactivate the
box, press the
button.
When the box has been activated, the symbol lights
up.
REMOVING THE ACTIVE zERO COMPARTMENT
Carry out the following steps:
› to make it easier to remove the compartment, we
recommend that you empty (and possibly remove)
the lower door shelves;
› turn off the compartment;
› remove the compartment by rotating it upwards;
› remove the white plastic shelf under the
compartment.
Note
It’s not possible to remove the upper shelf and side
supports.
To use the Active Zero compartment again, carefully
reposition the white plastic shelf under the
compartment before inserting the drawer and
turning the function back on.
To have a larger refrigerator volume and to reduce
energy consumption, it is recommended that you
turn off and remove the Active Zero compartment.
For the correct functioning of the Active Zero
compartment, it is necessary that:
› the refrigerator compartment is turned on;
› the temperature is b2°C and +6°C
› the drawer in the Active Zero compartment must
be inserted for it to be turned on;
› one of the following special functions is not
selected: Stand-by, Cooling-Off, Vacation (if
present), in this case, remove the food contained in
it.
Important
If the compartment is turned on and food with a
high water content is present, condensation may
form on the shelves. In this case, turn the function
off temporarily.
Be careful when positioning food and containers
that are small in size on the upper shelf of the Active
Zero compartment in order to prevent them
accidentally falling between the shelf and the back
wall of the refrigerator compartment.
Note:
› if the symbol does not light up when you turn on
the compartment, check that the drawer is properly
inserted; if the problem persists contact the
authorised Technical Assistance Service.
› if the compartment is turned on and the drawer is
open, the symbol in the control panel may
automatically turn off. The symbol will light up
again when the drawer is inserted
› regardless of the state of the compartment, you
may hear a faint noise, which you should consider as
normal
› when the compartment is not in operation, the
temperature inside it depends on the general
temperature of the refrigerator compartment. In
this case, it is advised that fruits and vegetables that
are not sensitive to cold (berries, apples, apricots,
carrots, spinach, lettuce, etc.) are stored in it.
