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.
! Electronic versions are provided with a motor protection switch
that powers on the compressor only almost 8 minutes after the
starting. The compressor also starts each time the power supply
is cut off whether voluntarily or involuntarily (blackout).
1. Connect the plug and check that the FRIDGE TEMPERATURE
indicator turns on. If the indicator stays off, please press the
ON/OFF button.
2. Set the FRIDGE TEMPERATURE on an average value. After a
few hours it will be possible to insert food in the fridge.
AIR*
Please activate the AIR feature by pressing the suitable button in
order to improve the device operation with a room temperature
higher than 24° C, if on the upper shelves there are water drops
or high moisture conditions. Do not block the air inlet with foods.
Using the refrigerator to its full potential
• Place only cold or lukewarm foods in the compartment, never
hot foods (See MULTI USE DRAWER where present)
• 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.
SHELVES: with or without grill.
They are removable and adjustable in height and depth thanks to
the special guides (see the picture), allowing easy storage of large
containers and food. Height can be adjusted without complete
removal of the shelf.

TEMPERATURE
Indicator light
*
: to identify the coldest area in
the refrigerator.
1. Check that OK appears clearly on the indicator light (see
diagram).
2. If the word “OK” does not appear it means that the temperature
is too high:set the FRIDGE TEMPERATURE on a colder value,
and then wait 10 hours until the temperature becomes stable.
3. Check the indicator light again: if necessary, readjust it
following the initial process. If large quantities of food have
been added or if the refrigerator door has been opened
frequently, it is normal for the indicator not to show OK. Wait
at least 10 hours before you set the FRIDGE temperature on a
colder value.
MULTI USE DRAWER* container
This is the new box which offers maximum flexibility in order to
stock your food in an excellent way.
If you put in the low section of your fridge compartment, on the
crisper box, it becomes CHILLER, and it guarantees a temperature
very close to 0°C, which is ideal to:
-store meat, fish and delicate food;
-rapid cooling of hot foods;
-low temperature defrosting (it inhibits the proliferation of
microorganisms).
You can get the 0°C temperature, in standard conditions, when
the fridge compartment temperature is at about 4°C.
By decreasing the fridge temperature you decrease the CHILLER
compartment temperature too.
If you put it in the “upper” part of the fridge compartment (A1), it
will be suitable to store fruit and vegetables, thus giving you the
possibility to have a second crisper box.
Using the freezer to its full potential
• 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 for freezing should not be placed in contact with the
one already frozen; it should be placed in the lower FREEZER
