- All shelves and door trays are removable.

- The internal temperatures of the appliance depend on

the ambient temperature, frequency of opening the

doors, as well as location of the appliance. Temperature

setting must consider these factors.

- The appliance accessories are not suitable for washing

in dishwasher.

HYDROSENSE SHELVES

(depending of the model)

The special contour of the HydroSense shelves creates a

barrier that contain spills and simplifies cleanup,

preventing liquids from leaking onto shelves below.

HOW TO START THE APPLIANCE

Fit the spacers (if supplied) on the

upper part of the condenser at the

rear of the appliance. When the

appliance is connected to the

power supply, the display lights up

and all the symbols appear on the

display for a few seconds. The

freezer factory setting -18°C appears and flashes, while the

refrigerator display shows a temperature of +5°C (factory-

set). While the appliance is working to reach the factory-set

temperature, an acoustic alarm sounds and temperature

symbol on the freezer display flashes (- -). This indicates that

the appliance has not yet reached the optimal temperature

for storage of foodstuffs. Press and hold the button "Reset"

until the acoustic alarm disables. The icon disappears when

the freezer compartment reaches a temperature below -

12°C, the display will show the temperature -18°C. After

being switched on, the refrigerator needs from 4 to 6 hours

to reach the correct temperature to store a typical volume

of food in the refrigerator compartment.

Important:

• If food is placed in the refrigerator before the appliance

has cooled completely, it may deteriorate.

• Turning the refrigerator and freezer controls to a colder

than recommended setting will not cool the

compartments any faster.

• A built-in exterior moisture control continuously guards

against moisture build-up on the front edges.

Do not be alarmed if these edges sometimes feel warm to

the touch.

The inside light switches on when the refrigerator door is

opened.

After 10 minutes of door opening the light switches off.

FAN WITH A BUTTON

The fan improves temperature distribution inside the

refrigerator compartment, allowing better preservation of

stored food. By default, the fan is ACTIVE.

It is advisable to keep the fan active, so that the "Fresh

Control" / "ProFresh" function can work and also when

the ambient air temperature is over 27 ÷ 28°C or if you

perceive drops of water on the glass shelves or in the

severe humidity conditions.

Note

Do not obstruct the air intake area with food items.

When "Fresh Control" / "ProFresh" is disabled

remember to turn off the fan when there is a lower

ambient air temperature.

To turn off the fan press the button (1a).

If the appliance has the fan it can be equipped with the

antibacterial filter.

Remove it from the box (found in the crisper drawer

(item 7) and insert into the cover of fan (item 1b).

The replacement procedure is attached with the filter.

“ZERO DEGREES” BOX

(depending on the model)

The "Zero Degrees" box is specifically designed to

maintain a low temperature and a suitable humidity level,

in order to keep foods fresher for longer (e.g. meat, fish,

fruit and winter vegetables).

Activating and deactivating the box

The temperature inside the box, when active, is

approximately 0°.

The following factors are vital for the "Zero Degrees" box

to work properly:

- the refrigerator compartment must be switched on

- the temperature of the refrigerator compartment must

be between +2°C and +5°C

- the box must be inserted to enable activation

- no special functions must have been selected (Standby,

Cooling-Off, Vacation – where applicable).

If one of these special functions has been selected, the

"Zero Degrees" box must be deactivated manually, and

any fresh food inside it removed. If manual deactivation

does not take place, the box will be deactivated

automatically after 8 hours.

Note:

- if the symbol does not light up when the box is

activated, check that the box is properly inserted; if the

problem persists, contact your nearest authorized

After-sales Service

- if the box is active and the drawer open, the symbol on

the control panel may be deactivated automatically. If

the drawer is inserted, the symbol will become active

again

- irrespective of the state of the box, a slight noise may

be heard: this is normal and is not a cause for concern.

- when the box is not active, the temperature inside it

depends on the general temperature inside the

refrigerator compartment. In this case, we recommend

it is used to store fruit and vegetables which are not

sensitive to cold temperatures (fruits of the forest,

apples, apricots, carrots, spinach, lettuce, etc.).

Important: when the function is activated and there are

foodstuffs with a high water content, condensation may

form on shelves. In this case, disable the function

temporarily.

Removing the "Zero Degrees" box:

The "Zero Degrees" box can be

removed to create more space

inside the refrigerator. In this

case proceed as follows:

- switch off the box

- pull out the drawer and the

white plastic shelf underneath

the box.

Note: the upper shelf and the side supports cannot be

removed.

To restore "Zero Degrees" box operation, make sure you

replace the white plastic shelf underneath the box before

inserting the drawer and reactivating the function. To

optimise energy consumption, we recommend you

deactivate the "Zero Degrees" box and remove it.

Clean the box and all its parts regularly, using a cloth and a

solution of warm water and neutral detergent specifically

formulated for refrigerator interiors (take care not to

immerse the white plastic shelf underneath the box in

water).

Before cleaning the box (including the outside),

remove the drawer so as to disconnect the box from

the electricity supply.

Never use abrasive detergents.
