demonstrated in the filter packaging (if available). If the audible signal
sounds, it means that the temperature alarm has intervened: press the

"ACTIVE OXYGEN" FUNCTION
Through the emission of a small quantity of ozone, this function
enables a reduction in the proliferation of bacteria and microorganisms
inside the refrigerator and limits bad odours.
To activate the Active Oxygen function, press the
button on the
control panel.
When the function is activated, a coloured light will appear on the
device, according to the following cyclical features:
•
Green light: ozone emission phase
•
Blue light: antibacterial and anti-odour action phase (without
ozone emission)
To deactivate the function, simply press the
button on the control
panel.
Note: when the Active Oxygen function is activated, a faint odour might
be perceived inside the refrigerator (the same odour that sometimes
accompanies a thunder storm due to the zone produced by the lightning):
it is absolutely normal.
Note: Disabling the function optimizes energy consumption. Keep the
bottle rack grid in the upper parts of the comparison to optimize the
function.
FAN*
The fan activates and deactivates automatically for a better
temperature distribution and for humidity reduction in the fridge
compartment.
ON/STAND-BY
Press the button for 3 seconds to turn the appliance off. In
Stand-by mode the light in the refrigerator compartment does not turn
on. Press the button again briefly to reactivate the appliance.
Note: this does not disconnect the appliance from the power supply.
TEMPERATURE DISPLAY
The display may alternately show the refrigerator compartment
temperature (between 2°C and 8° C) or the temperature of the freezer
compartment (between -16°C and -24°C).
VACATION (HOLIDAY MODE)

absence. Press the
button for 3 seconds to turn the function on.
The display will show the temperature of the refrigerator compartment
(12°C) and the icon will light up. After activating the function,
remove the food from the refrigerator compartment and keep both
doors closed - the refrigerator will maintain a suitable temperature to
prevent odours from forming. The freezer, however, will stay turned on.
To turn off the function press the
button for 3 seconds.
