- 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.
