5. HINTS AND TIPS
5.1 Normal operating sounds
The following sounds are normal during
operation:
A faint gurgling and bubbling sound
from coils sound when refrigerant is
pumped.
A whirring and pulsating sound from
the compressor when refrigerant is
pumped.
A sudden cracking noise from inside
appliance caused by thermic dilatation
(a natural and not dangerous physical
phenomenon).
A faint click noise from the temperature
regulator when the compressor
switches on or off.
5.2 Hints for energy saving
Do not open the door frequently or
leave it open longer than absolutely
necessary.
Place the shelf above the water module
as described in the "Daily use" chapter.
5.3 Hints for fresh food
refrigeration
To obtain the best performance:
do not store warm food or evaporating
liquids in the refrigerator
do cover or wrap the food, particularly
if it has a strong flavour
position food so that air can circulate
freely around it
5.4 Hints for refrigeration
Useful hints:
ENGLISH
31
Meat (all types) : wrap in polythene
bags and place on the glass shelf
above the vegetable drawer.
For safety, store in this way only one or
two days at the most.
Cooked foods, cold dishes, etc..: these
should be covered and may be placed
on any shelf.
Fruit and vegetables: these should be
thoroughly cleaned and placed in the
special drawer(s) provided.
Butter and cheese: these should be
placed in special airtight containers or
wrapped in aluminium foil or polythene
bags to exclude as much air as
possible.
Bottles: these need a cap and should
be stored on the door bottle shelf, or (if
equipped) on the bottle rack.
Bananas, potatoes, onions and garlic,
if not packed, must not be kept in the
refrigerator.
5.5 Hints for temperature inside
the fridge
A suitable temperature inside the fridge
is approx. +4° C. If the temperature
regulator is set to a cold temperature,
the ambient temperature is high or if
the fridge is fully loaded the
compressor will run for a longer time. If
too cold, change to a higher
temperature setting.
CAUTION!
Do not place food against
or close to the
temperature sensor (A).
This can result in too cold
temperatures.
A
If you want to check the temperature of
food stored in the refrigerator, place a
glass of water centrally in the cabinet,
and put a proper thermometer with an
accuracy of +/– 1 °C into it. After 6
hours the temperature can be
monitored. The measuring shall be
performed under steady-stated
conditions (without changing the load).

appliance is positioned below an
overhanging wall unit, the minimum
distance between the top of the cabinet
and the wall unit must be at least 40 mm.
Ideally, however, the appliance should not
be positioned below overhanging wall
units.
The ventilation space can be:
directly above the appliance
behind and above the top cupboard.
In this case, the space behind the top
cupboard must be at least 50 mm
deep.
50 mm
8.3 Electrical connection
Before plugging in, ensure that the
voltage and frequency shown on the
rating plate correspond to your
domestic power supply.
The appliance must be earthed. The
power supply cable plug is provided
with a contact for this purpose. If the
domestic power supply socket is not
earthed, connect the appliance to a
separate earth in compliance with
current regulations, consulting a
qualified electrician.
The manufacturer declines all
responsibility if the above safety
precautions are not observed.
This appliance complies with the E.E.C.
Directives.
8.4 Rear spacers
Install the two spacers and the locking
pins provided within the accessory bag as
shown in the figure.
8.5 Levelling
When placing the appliance ensure that it
stands level. If necessary adjust the feet
using the adjustment spanner supplied.
Door alignment is dependent on proper
levelling.

CAUTION!
Some models are fitted with a
silencing pad under the
cabinet. Do not remove this
pad.
8.7 Connecting the water hose.
Water supply should be provided with a
tap and 3/4" male connector within 1,5 m
from the appliance.
This work is to be carried out by a skilled
plumber.
There are different type-approved taps
and tap assemblies on the market.
The water hose must not be cracked,
squeezed or put in tight bends.
The safety valve provided in a package
inside the appliance should be used to
prevent overflow. Before the safety valve is
placed on the tap, turn the pointer
clockwise to number 10 with the enclosed
plastic key. Install the safety valve on the
tap and let at least 10 litres of water flow
through the device. Before connecting the
appliance turn the pointer to number 1 on
the safety valve. If the safety valve has
shut off, detach it and press the red
plunger which is located inside the lower
housing of the device itself.
Before the appliance is placed its final
location, ensure that the water connection
has been correctly carried out, that there
is no leakage at the connection to the
water tap.
Tighten the screw enough by hand.
Make sure that the gasket is properly
positioned in the connector.
We recommend that the appliance is
placed on a "run-off" mat intended for
refrigerators and freezers, which makes it
easier to detect possible leakage

The filter should be handled
carefully so fragments do not
