Installation
! Before placing your new appliance into operation please read these
operating instructions carefully. They contain important information for
safe use, for installation and for care of the appliance.
! Please keep these operating instructions for future reference. Pass
them on to possible new owners of the appliance.
Positioning and connection
Positioning
1. Place the appliance in a well-ventilated humidity-free room.
2. Do not obstruct the rear fan grills. The compressor and condenser
give off heat and require good ventilation to operate correctly and
save energy.
3. Leave a space of at least 10 cm between the top part of the
appliance and any furniture above it, and at least 5 cm between
the sides and any furniture/side walls.
4. Ensure the appliance is away from any sources of heat (direct
sunlight, electric stove, etc.).
5. In order to maintain the correct distance between the appliance
and the wall behind it, fit the spacers supplied in the installation kit,
following the instructions provided.
Levelling
1. Install the appliance on a level and rigid floor.
2. If the floor is not perfectly horizontal, adjust the refrigerator by
tightening or loosening the front feet.
Electrical connections
After the appliance has been transported, carefully place it vertically
and wait at least 3 hours before connecting it to the electricity mains.
Before inserting the plug into the electrical socket ensure the following:
• The appliance is earthed and the plug is compliant with the law.
• The socket can withstand the maximum power of the appliance,
which is indicated on the data plate located on the bottom left side
of the fridge (e.g. 150 W).
• The voltage must be in the range between the values indicated on
the data plate located on the bottom left side (e.g. 220-240V).
• The socket is compatible with the plug of the appliance. If the
socket is incompatible with the plug, ask an authorised technician
to replace it (
see Assistance
). Do not use extension cords or
multiple sockets.
! Once the appliance has been installed, the power supply cable and
the electrical socket must be easily accessible.
! The cable must not be bent or compressed.
! The cable must be checked regularly and replaced by authorised
technicians only (see Assistance).

Start-up and use
Starting the appliance
! After transportation of the appliance, carefully place it in an upright
position and wait at least 3 hours before connecting it to the electricity
mains, to make sure it operates as it should.
• Clean the inside of the refrigerator well using warm water and
bicarbonate of soda before placing food inside it.
• The appliance comes with a motor protection control system which
makes the compressor start approximately 8 minutes after being
switched on. The compressor also starts each time the power
supply is cut off whether voluntarily or involuntarily (blackout).
Freezer Compartment
When the product is switched on the freezer compartment is set to its
default value of -18°C. We recommend that the SUPER FREEZE
function is set in order to accelerate the cooling process of the
compartment; when the inside of the compartment has reached its
optimal temperature the function will be deactivated and the food may
be placed inside.
Refrigerator Compartment
When the appliance is switched on the refrigerator compartment is
set to its default value of +5°C. We recommend that the SUPER COOL
function is set in order to accelerate the cooling process of the
compartment. After a few hours it will be cool enough for food to be
placed inside.
Navigating the display
Setting the temperatures:
If the product is switched on, the refrigerator and freezer compartment
displays will indicate the temperature values set at that moment. To
change them, simply press the - and + buttons corresponding to the
compartment for which you wish to change the set temperature. More
specifically, each time the buttons are pressed, the temperature
increases or decreases and the level of cold generated inside the
compartment is adjusted accordingly. The temperature values that
may be selected for the refrigerator compartment are +8°C, +7°C,
+6°C, +5°C, +4°C, +3°C and +2°C, while the values that may be set
for the freezer are -18°C, -19°C, -20°C, -21°C, -22°C, -23°C-24°C -
25°C and -26°C. If SUPER COOL function is activated, Fridge
temperature cannot be modified. If SUPER FREEZE functions is
activated, Freezer temperature cannot be modified.
Chiller system
No Frost
The No Frost system circulates cold air continuously to collect humidity
and prevent ice and frost formation. The system maintains an optimal
humidity level in the compartment, preserving the original quality of
the food, preventing the food from sticking together and making
defrosting a thing of the past. Do not block the aeration cells by
placing food or containers near the refrigerating back panel.
!!!!! Close bottles and wrap food tightly.
SHELVES: Due to the special guides the shelves are removable and
the height is adjustable, allowing easy storage of large containers
and food.
TEMPERATURE Indicator light
* : to identify the coldest area in the
refrigerator.
1. Check that OK appears clearly on the indicator light (
see diagram).
