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.
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).
1. Insert the plug into the socket and make sure that the
TEMPERATURE indicator light illuminates. If the temperature
indicator light doesn’t illuminate, press the ON/OFF button.
2. Set the TEMPERATURE indicator lights to an average value .
Using the refrigerator to its full potential
• Place only cold or lukewarm foods in the compartment, never
hot foods (see Precautions and tips).
• Remember that cooked foods do not last longer than raw
foods.
• Do not store liquids in open containers: they will increase the
level of humidity in the refrigerator and cause condensation to
form.
In static appliances, the air circulates in a natural way: the
colder air tends to move downwards as it is heavier. The food
should be stored as follows:
• Place only cold or lukewarm foods in the compartment, not
hot foods (see Precautions and tips).
• Remember that cooked foods do not last longer than raw
foods.
• Do not store liquids in open containers. They will increase
humidity in the refrigerator and cause condensation to form.
Ice tray
The fact that they are situated on the top part of the freezer
drawers ensures greater cleanliness: the ice no longer
comes into contact with the food placed inside the freezer
compartment; furthermore, the dripping of the water during
filling is avoided (a lid to cover up the hole after filling with
water is also provided).
1. Pull out the tray by pushing it up.
Check that the tray is completely empty and fill it with water
through the opening provided.
2. Take care not to exceed the level indicated (MAX WATER
LEVEL). Excess water prevents the ice cubes from
dispensing (if this happens, wait for the ice to melt and
empty the tray).
3. Turn the tray 90°: due to the connected compartments each
mould fills with water (see diagram).
4. Close the opening with the lid provided and put the tray
back, placing the top part in the corresponding housing and
allowing it to drop in again.
5. When the ice has formed (minimum time approximately 8
hours) knock the tray against a hard surface and wet the
outside so that the ice cubes come loose and take them out
through the opening.

Using the freezer to its full potential
• Use the TEMPERATURE CONTROL button to set the
temperature value.
We recommend, however, a medium position.
• Do not re-freeze food that is defrosting or that has
already been defrosted. These foods must be cooked
and eaten (within 24 hours).
• Fresh food that needs to be frozen must not come into
contact with food that has already been defrosted.
Fresh food must be stored in the FREEZER and
STORAGE compartment.
• Do not place glass bottles which contain liquids, and
which are corked or hermetically sealed in the freezer
because they could break.
• The maximum quantity of food that may be frozen daily is
indicated on the plate containing the technical properties
located within the freezer (for example: Kg/24h: 4).
• To freeze (if the freezer is already operating):
- for small quantities which are less than those
indicated on the data plate, press the rapid freezing
QUICK FREEZE button (corresponding indicator light
illuminates), insert the food and close the door. The
function is disabled automatically after 24 hours.
• In order to obtain a greater amount of space in
the freezer compartment, you may remove the
bins (except the lowest bin and the special COOL
CARE ZONE bin (if exists), which has an adjustable
temperature) and place the food directly onto the
supplied rack.
!
To avoid blocking the air circulation inside the
freezer compartment, it is advisable not to obstruct the
ventilation holes with food or containers.
