Domestic Use

Keep these instructions and they should

remain at the appliance when moving

away or changing owner.

This appliance is designed for storing

food, domestic use and being used

according to these instructions only.

Specialised companies that are quali-

fied to do so by the manufacturer must

carry out service and repairs including

repairing and changing the power

cord. Accessory parts supplied by them

should be used only for repairing.

Otherwise the appliance can be damaged

or can cause other damage or injury.

Make sure that the mains plug is accessi-

ble after the installation of the appliance.

Before maintenance, switch off the appli-

ance and disconnect the mains plug from

the mains socket.

Power cord must not be lengthened.

Make sure that the power plug is not

squashed or damaged by the back of

the fridge/freezer.

- A damaged power plug may overheat

and cause a fire.

Do not place heavy articles or the

fridge/freezer itself on the power cord.

- There is a risk of a short circuit and fire.

Do not remove the power cord by

pulling on its lead, particularly when

the fridge/freezer is being pulled out

of its niche.

Safety precautions for isobutane

Warning

The refrigerant of the appliance is isobu-

tane (R 600a) that is inflammable and

explosive to a greater extent.

Keep ventilation openings, in the appli-

ance enclosure or in the built-in structure,

clear of obstruction.

Do not use mechanical devices or other

means to accelerate the defrosting

process, other than those recommended

by the manufacturer.

Do not damage the refrigerant circuit.

Do not use electrical appliances inside the

food storage compartments of the appli-

ance, unless they are of the type recom-

mended by the manufacturer.

23

Do not use detergents or abrasive

powders, as these will damage the

finish.

Remove safety elements used for trans-

portation.

Before Use

Insert the plug into the wall socket and

turn the thermostat knob clockwise

beyond position «O» (OFF).

The thermostat control situated inside the

fridge compartment regulates the temper-

ature of the appliance.

Turn the thermostat control to the

required setting.

Wait 4 hours before connecting the appli-

ance to allow the oil to flow back in the com-

pressor.

Before using the appliance for the first

time, wash the interior and all internal

accessories with lukewarm water and

some neutral soap so as to remove the

typical smell of a brand-new product, then

dry thoroughly.

Starting the appliance

Temperature Control

The following effects are of significance in

respect of the interior temperature:

Ambient temperature

Quantity and temperature of the food

stored;

Frequency with which the door is opened

and how long it is left open

the location of the appliance.

The temperature inside the appliance is

automatically adjusted.

Setting “1” = hightest temperature,

warmest setting

Setting “6” = lowest temperature, cold-

est setting.

Setting “ ” = Off

A medium setting is generally the most

suitable.

24

Internal Parts

Storage shelves

The shelves can be removed for cleaning.

To permit storage of food packages of

various sizes, the shelves can be placed

at different heights.

To remove the internal shelf pull forward

until it can be tipped up or down and

removed.

Please do the same in reverse to insert

the shelf at a different height.

The glass shelf above the vegetable

drawers and the bottle shelf should

always remain in position, to ensure

correct air circulation.

Door shelves

To permit storage of food packages of

various sizes, the central door shelf can

be adjusted in height.

Gradually pull the shelf in the direction of

the arrows until it comes free, then repo-

sition as required.

For more thorough cleaning, the top and

bottom door sheves can be easily

removed and refitted in position.

Saving Energy

Pay careful attention to where the cabinet

is placed. See the section Installation.

When installed correctly the cabinet will

consume less energy.

Try to avoid keeping the doors open for

long periods or opening the doors too fre-

quently as warm air will enter the cabinet

and cause the compressor to switch on

unnecessarily often.

Hints

If the ambient temperature is high, the ther-

mostat knob is on the coldest setting (high-

er numbers) and the appliance is fully

loaded, the compressor may run continu-

ously, causing frost or ice to form on the

evaporator. If this happens, turn the knob

to a warmer setting (lower numbers) to

allow automatic defrosting and so a saving

in electricity consumption.

Do not place warm foods inside the appli-

ance. Allow warm foods to cool first.

Keep the heat emitting condenser, the met-

all grille on the rear wall of your appliance,

always clean.

25

Do not store warm food or evaporating liq-

uids in the refrigerator and do cover or

wrap up the food, particularly if it has a

strong smell.

To help you use your refrigerator correctly,

here are some useful hints:

Raw meat (beef, pork, lamb & poultry):

wrap in polythene bags and place on top

of the salad compartment, this being the

coldest spot in the refrigerator.

Meat can only be stored safely in this way

for one or two days at the most.

Cooked food, cold cuts, jelly, etc.:

these should be well covered and can be

stored on any of the glass shelves.

Fruit & vegetables: these should be thor-

oughly cleaned and placed in the bottom

drawer/s.

Butter & cheese: these should be placed

in special airtight containers or wrapped in

aluminium foil or polythene bags to keep

out as much air as possible.

Milk bottles: these should have a top and

should be stored in the bottle rack on the

door.

Bananas, potatoes, onions and garlic, if

not packed, must not be kept in the refrig-

erator

Hints for refrigeration

Hints for freezing

To help you make the most of the freezing

process, here are some important hints:

the maximum quantity of food which can

be frozen in 24 hrs. is shown on the rating

plate;

the freezing process takes 24 hours. No

further food to be frozen should be added

during this period;

only freeze top quality, fresh and thor-

oughly cleaned, foodstuffs;

prepare food in small portions to enable it

to be rapidly and completely frozen and to

make it possible subsequently to thaw

only the quantity required;

wrap up the food in aluminium foil or poly-

thene and make sure that the packages

are airtight;

do not allow fresh, unfrozen food to touch

food which is already frozen, thus avoiding

a rise in temperature of the latter;

lean foods store better and longer than

fatty ones; salt reduces the storage life of

food;

water ices, if consumed immediately after

removal from the freezer compartment,

can possibly cause the skin to be freeze

burnt;

it is advisable to show the freezing in date

on each individual pack to enable you to

keep tab of the storage time.

26

Hints for storage of frozen food

To obtain the best performance from this

appliance, you should:

make sure that the commercially frozen

foodstuffs were adequately stored by the

retailer;

be sure that frozen foodstuffs are trans-

ferred from the foodstore to the freezer in

the shortest possible time;

not open the door frequently or leave it

open longer than absolutely necessary.

Once defrosted, food deteriorates rapidly

and cannot be refrozen.

Do not exceed the storage period indicat-

ed by the food manufacturer.

Explanation of the cold zonesigns

The symbol shown here on the left

indicates the coldest point inside your

refrigerator.

Coldest area: below or equal to +4°C

Meat, poultry, fish, cold cuts, ready-to-eat

meals, mixed salads, egg or cream based

mixes and cakes, fresh pasta, cake mixes,

pizzas/quiches, fresh foods and fresh-milk

cheeses, vegetables ready to be used and

packed in plastic bags and all other fresh

foods whose expiry date is associated with a

preservation temperature below or equal to

+4°C.

T

emperatur indicator

Thermostat must be Right Temperature

adjusted

With the temperature indicator you can keep

a check that your refrigerator is working prop-

erly.

The indicator shows the "OK" symbol when

the coldest area reaches a temperature that

is below or equal to 4ˇC.

If the temperature is higher than 4ˇC the indi-

cator is black so you must adjust the thermo-

stat to make the temperature drop.

ATTENTION: Keeping the refrigerator door

open for a long time will cause the internal

temperature to rise. To measure the tempera-

ture correctly, it should be read on the indica-

tor within 30 seconds.

27

Unplug the appliance before carry-

ing out any maintenance opera-

tion.

Warning

This appliance contains hydrocarbons in its

cooling unit maintenance and recharging

must therefore only be carried out by autho-

rised technicians.

Defrosting

Bleeding part of the moisture of cooling

chamber in form of frost and ice goes with

the operation of the refrigerator.

Thick frost and ice has an insulating effect,

so it reduces cooling efficiency as the tem-

perature increases, it needs more energy, at

a certain thickness it does not allow the door

of the frozen food compartment to open,

possibly the door can be broken.

At this type of appliance defrosting fresh

food compartment is automatic without any

external intervention.

The thermostatic control interrupts the opera-

tion of compressor at regular intervals for

more or less time - during this cooling is

interrupted - temperature of the fresh food

compartment increases and defrosting

occurs. After defrosting the thermostatic

control restarts operation of the system.

Melting water flows through defrost water

outlet into the evaporative tray maintained on

the top of compressor and evaporates due to

warmth of it.

Check and clean the outlet of

melting water coming during

defrosting regularly. If it is

clogged the melting water gath-

ered can cause earlier failure as it

can go to the insulating of the

appliance.

Maintenance

Clean the melting water outlet with the sup-

plied pipe scraper that can be seen in the fig-

ure. The pipe scraper has to be stored in the

outlet.

Occasionally check defrost water outlet not to

be clogged up.

The most typical case of clogging up in the

defrost water outlet when you put food

wrapped in some paper into the appliance

and this paper contacts back plate of fresh

food compartment and freezes to it. If you

remove the food right at this moment the

paper will tear and it can cause clogging up

in the outlet by getting into it. So you are

asked to be careful - because of the above -

when placing foods wrapped in paper into the

appliance.

In case of increased demand e.g. dur-

ing heatwaves, the refrigerator tem-

porarily happens to operate constant-

ly. During this the automatic defrosting

is ineffective.

Remaining small ice and frost stains on back

plate of the fresh food compartment after

defrosting period is not abnormal.

The frozen food compartment can not be

equipped with automatic defrosting set since

the deep-frozen and frozen foods do not

endure melting temperature.

Provided it is not too thick, the layer of frost

or ice can be scraped off and removed using

a plastic scraper.

When ice coating is so thick that it can not be

removed with the plastic scraper, the frozen

food compartment has to be defrosted (gen-

erally 2-3 times a year).

28

Disconnect the appliance from the electricity

supply.

Empty all foods and clean the appliance,

leaving the doors ajar to prevent unpleasant

smells.

Should the light fail to work you can change it

as below:

Break the circuit of the appliance.

Unscrew the plate screw fixing the lamp

cover, then take the lamp cover off in the

direction of arrow and the bulb can be

changed. (Type of the bulb: Mignon 322,

230 V, 15 W, E 14 thread)

How to change the bulb

After changing bulb replace the lamp cover,

screw the plate screw and apply voltage to

the appliance.

The lack of light does not influence operation

of the refrigerator.

Take the foods out of the frozen and fresh

food compartment, wrap them into some lay-

ers of paper or cloth. Put them to a possible

cool place while defrosting.

Break the circuit of the appliance and leave

the doors of frozen and fresh food compart-

ment open.

Continuously blot off the defrosting water by a

soft cloth or sponge.

After defrosting wipe the surfaces, apply volt-

age to the appliance and put the foods back

to their places.

It is recommended to operate the appliance

at the highest position of the thermostatic

control so that it can reach the proper storing

temperature as soon as possible.

Cleaning

Never use metal objects for clean-

ing your appliance as it may get

damaged.

NEVER use detergents, abrasive powders,

highly perfumed cleaning products or wax

polishes to clean the interior as these will

damage the surface and leave a strong

odour.

Clean the inside with warm water and bicar-

bonate of soda. Rinse and dry thoroughly.

To guarantee a safe operation of the fridge,

once a year remove the ventilation grill at the

base and clean the air channels with a vacu-

um cleaner.

29

Something not Working

Problems may be due to causes which

can easily be solved before calling the

Technical Service. Please follow these

instructions:

SYMPTOM

Door does not close

It is too warm inside the refrig-

erator

It is too cold inside the refriger-

ator.

The compressor works contin-

uously.

There is water inside/outside

the refrigerator.

Water comes out on the floor.

Noises

SOLUTION

Level properly the appliances if it is not well levelled.

Weight surpasses the storage limit of the door shelf so spread weight

more evenly or take some products out.

The appliance is not properly installed. Please look in the “Building-in”

section.

Set a lower temperature.

Distribute the food products to allow cold air to circulate around them.

Make sure that the door is completely closed and that the insulating strip

is complete and clean.

The temperature where the cabinet is placed is above normal room tem-

perature.

Turn the temperature regulator to a warmer setting temporarily.

Turn the thermostat knob to a lower number.

The temperature where the cabinet is placed is above normal room tem-

perature.

Check that the ventilation is sufficient and that the ventilation openings

are unobstructed.

The cause could be the introduction of large quantities of food and/or

frequent opening/closing of the door.

Sometimes is normal. During automatic defrosting frost thaws on the

cooling plate.

Place the drain hose at the back of the cabinet above the drain bowl.

Sometimes this is normal. Temperature control may cause clicking

sounds when the system is connected or disconnected.

The injected cooling gas may produce a gurgling sound while passing

through the tubes.

The motor may cause a humming noise and/or slight bumping.

The insulation material used has a tendency to slighly increase noise lev-

els, how ever it allows for much better insulation and a lower energy con-

sumption.

30

If you cannot find the remedy for a malfunc-

tion in these operating instructions, please
