* Varies by number and/or position, available only on certain models.

LED *

Thanks to the powerful light it emits, the new LED lighting system

offers a clear view of all foods, with no shadowy areas. If the LED

needs to be replaced, please contact the Technical Assistance

Service.

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 that needs to be frozen must not come into contact

with food that has already been defrosted. Fresh food must

be stored in the top FREEZER and STORAGE compartment

where the temperature drops below -18°C and guarantees

rapid freezing.

• 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 on the bottom left side of the refrigerator compartment

(for example: Kg/24h: 4)

! Do not open the door during freezing.

! If there is a power cut or malfunction, do not open the freezer

door. This will help maintain the temperature inside the freezer,

ensuring that foods are conserved for at least 9 -14 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, which has an adjustable

temperature) and place the food directly onto the evaporator

plates.

SUPER FREEZE *

The “Super Freeze” button enables intensive chilling so that the

desired temperature is reached quickly. Once the fresh food is

frozen, set the switch back to the OFF position. WARNING: in

order to save energy, make sure the function is switched off after

24 hours.

Maintenance and care

Switching the appliance off

During cleaning and maintenance it is necessary to disconnect

the appliance from the electricity supply.

It is not sufficient to set the temperature adjustment knobs on

OFF

(appliance off) to eliminate all electrical contact.

Cleaning the appliance

• The external and internal parts, as well as the rubber seals may

be cleaned using a sponge that has been soaked in lukewarm

water and bicarbonate of soda or neutral soap. Do not use

solvents, abrasive products, bleach or ammonia.

• The removable accessories may be soaked in warm water and

soap or dishwashing liquid. Rinse and dry them carefully.

• The back of the appliance may collect dust which can be

removed by delicately using the hose of a vacuum cleaner set

on medium power. The appliance must be switched off and

the plug must be pulled out before cleaning the appliance.

Avoiding mould and unpleasant odours

• The appliance is manufactured with hygienic materials which

are odour free. In order to maintain an odour free refrigerator

and to prevent the formation of stains, food must always be

covered or sealed properly.

• If you want to switch the appliance off for an extended period

of time, clean the inside and leave the doors open.

Defrosting the appliance

! Follow the instructions below.

Do not speed up the defrosting process by using any devices

or tools other than the scraper provided, you may damage the

refrigeration circuit.

Defrosting the refrigerator compartment

The refrigerator has an automatic defrosting function: water is

ducted to the back of the appliance by a special discharge outlet

(see diagram) where the heat produced by the compressor causes

it to evaporate. It is necessary to clean the discharge hole regularly

so that the water can flow out easily.

Defrosting the freezer compartment

If the frost layer is greater than 5 mm, it is necessary to defrost

manually:

1. Set the TEMPERATURE ADJUSTMENT knob to the position

OFF

2. Wrap frozen foods in newspaper and place them in another

freezer or in a cool place.

3. Leave the door open until the frost has melted completely. This

can be made easier by placing containers with lukewarm water

in the freezer compartment.

4. Clean and dry the freezer compartment carefully before

switching the appliance on again.

Replacing the light bulb *

To replace the light bulb in the refrigerator compartment, pull out

the plug from the electrical socket. Follow the instructions below.

Access the light bulb by removing the cover as indicated in the

diagram. Replace it with a similar light bulb within the power range

indicated on the cover.
