SHELVES: with or without grill.  
PLAY ZONE Thanks to the new “Play Zone” bottle  
rack, you can cool several bottles, cans and energy  
drinks quickly to have them constantly at hand.

GB  
Due to the special guides the  
shelves are removable and the  
height is adjustable (see  
diagram), allowing easy storage  
of large containers and food.  
Height can be adjusted without  
complete removal of the shelf.

MULTI-USE bin: to store food (such as cold meats)  
*
for a long time and also prevent odours from lingering  
in the refrigerator.  
If the “Play Zone” is placed on the glass shelf, you can  
store large and medium sized bottles on it simply by  
laying the bottle on the flat rack. This is ideal for storing  
wine bottles. When folded and secured in place on either  
side of the shelf, the rack can be used to store cans (at  
the top), energy drinks (in the centre) and other cans  
and energy drinks can be rested horizontally on the  
remaining part of the shelf. When placing cans (onto the  
Play zone rack), make sure they do not touch the back  
of the refrigerator interior.  
TEMPERATURE Indicator light: to identify the coldest  
area in the refrigerator.  
1. Check that OK appears clearly on the indicator light  
(see diagram).  
*

The “Play Zone” can be used just like a normal shelf  
(when placed flat) and moved up or down along the  
fridge walls together with the rest of the shelf. It can be  
washed easily, and is also dishwasher safe. The ideal  
position for the Play zone rack is the central shelf.  
2. If the word “OK” does not appear it means that the  
temperature is too high: adjust the REFRIGERATOR  
OPERATION knob to a higher (colder) position and  
wait approximately 10 hours until the temperature has  
stabilised.  
3. Check the indicator light again: if necessary, readjust  
it following the initial process. If large quantities of  
food have been added or if the refrigerator door has  
been opened frequently, it is normal for the indicator  
not to show OK. Wait at least 10 hours before  
adjusting the REFRIGERATOR OPERATION knob to a  
higher setting.  
Available only on certain models.

Start-up and use  
Starting the appliance  
Using the refrigerator to its full potential  
GB  
! Before starting the appliance, follow the installation  
instructions (see Installation).  
• Place only cold or lukewarm foods in the compartment,  
not hot foods (see Precautions and tips).  
! Before connecting the appliance, clean the  
compartments and accessories well with lukewarm  
water and bicarbonate.  
• Remember that cooked foods do not last longer than  
raw foods.  
! 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).  
• Do not store liquids in open containers. They will  
increase humidity in the refrigerator and cause  
condensation to form.  
Food hygiene  
1. Insert the plug into the socket and ensure that the  
internal light illuminates ( the FREEZER OPERATION  
knob must not be on the position) .  
2. Turn the FREEZER OPERATION knob and  
REFRIGERATOR OPERATION knob to an average  
value. After a few hours you will be able to put food in  
the refrigerator.  
1. Once you have bought your food, remove all external  
packaging made of paper/cardboard or other  
wrappers, which could introduce bacteria or dirt  
inside your refrigerator.  
2. Protect the food, (especially easily perishable items  
and those that have a strong smell), in order to avoid  
contact between them, thereby removing both the  
possibility of germ/bacteria contamination as well as  
the diffusion of strong odours inside the fridge.  
3. Store all food in such a way as to ensure air can  
circulate freely between different items.  
Setting the temperature  
The temperature inside the  
refrigerator compartment  
automatically adjusts itself  
according to the position  
of the thermostat knob.  
min= warmest  
max = coldest  
We recommend, however,  
a medium position.  
4. Keep the inside of your fridge clean, taking care not  
to use oxidiser or abrasive products.  
5. Remove all food past its expiry date from the  
refrigerator.  
6. For the correct preservation of food, all easily  
perishable items (soft cheeses, raw fish, meat, etc.)  
should be stored in the coldest zone of the fridge  
compartment, i.e. just above the salad crisper where  
the temperature indicator is situated.  
Chiller system  
No Frost  
It is recognisable by  
aeration cells located on  
the back walls of the  
compartments.  
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 in direct contact with the refrigerating  
back panel. Close bottles and wrap food tightly.

Using the freezer to its full potential  
GB  
The temperature inside the  
freezer compartment  
automatically adjusts itself  
according to the position of  
the thermostat knob.  
= warmest  
= coldest  
We recommend, however, a  
medium position.  
ECO is the optimal temperature for energy saving levels.  
switches the appliance off, including the refrigerator.  
• Do not re-freeze food that is defrosting or that has  
already been defrosted. These foods must be cooked  
and eaten (within 24 hours).  
• Fresh food that needs to be frozen must not come into  
contact with food that has already been defrosted.  
Fresh food must be stored in the top FREEZER and  
STORAGE compartment where the temperature drops  
below -18°C and guarantees rapid freezing.  
WARNING: to avoid blocking the air circulation inside  
the freezer compartment, it is advisable not to obstruct  
the ventilation holes with food or containers.  
• Do not place glass bottles which contain liquids, and  
which are corked or hermetically sealed in the freezer  
because they could break.  
• The maximum quantity of food that may be frozen daily  
is indicated on the plate containing the technical  
properties located on the bottom left side of the  
refrigerator compartment (for example: Kg/24h: 4)  
! Do not open the door during freezing.  
! If there is a power cut or malfunction, do not open the  
freezer door. This will help maintain the temperature  
inside the freezer, ensuring that foods are conserved for  
at least 9 -14 hours.

Maintenance and care  
Switching the appliance off  
Replacing the light bulb  
GB  
During cleaning and maintenance it is necessary to  
disconnect the appliance from the electricity supply:  
To replace the light bulb in the refrigerator compartment,  
pull out the plug from the electrical socket. Follow the  
instructions below.  
Access the light bulb by removing the cover as  
indicated in the diagram.  
Replace it with a similar light bulb within the power  
range indicated on the cover (10W).  
1. set the FREEZER OPERATION knob on  
2. pull the plug out of the socket  
Cleaning the appliance  
• The external and internal parts, as well as the rubber  
seals may be cleaned using a sponge that has been  
soaked in lukewarm water and bicarbonate of soda or  
neutral soap. Do not use solvents, abrasive products,  
bleach or ammonia.  
• The removable accessories may be soaked in warm  
water and soap or dishwashing liquid. Rinse and dry  
them carefully.  
• The back of the appliance may collect dust which can  
be removed by delicately using the hose of a vacuum  
cleaner set on medium power. The appliance must be  
switched off and the plug must be pulled out before  
cleaning the appliance.  
Avoiding mould and unpleasant odours  
• The appliance is manufactured with hygienic materials  
which are odour free. In order to maintain an odour free  
refrigerator and to prevent the formation of stains, food  
must always be covered or sealed properly.  
• If you want to switch the appliance off for an extended  
period of time, clean the inside and leave the doors  
open.  
17  
 
Precautions and tips  
! The appliance was designed and manufactured in  
compliance with international safety standards. The  
following warnings are provided for safety reasons and  
must be read carefully.  
Disposal  
GB  
• Observe local environmental standards when  
disposing packaging material for recycling purposes.  
• The European Directive 2002/96/EC on Waste  
Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE), requires  
that old household electrical appliances must not be  
disposed of in the normal unsorted municipal waste  
stream. Old appliances must be collected separately  
in order to optimise the recovery and recycling of the  
materials they contain and reduce the impact on  
human health and the environment. The crossed out  
“wheeled bin” symbol on the product reminds you of  
your obligation, that when you dispose of the  
appliance it must be separately collected.  
This appliance complies with the following  
Community Directives:  
- 73/23/EEC of 19/02/73 (Low Voltage) and  
subsequent amendments;  
-89/336/EEC of 03.05.89 (Electromagnetic  
Compatibility) and subsequent amendments;  
- 2002/96/CE.  
General safety  
Consumers should contact their local authority or  
retailer for information concerning the correct disposal  
of their old appliance.  
• The appliance was designed for domestic use inside  
the home and is not intended for commercial or  
industrial use.  
• The appliance must be used to store and freeze food  
products by adults only and according to the  
instructions in this manual.  
Respecting and conserving the  
environment  
• The appliance must not be installed outdoors, even in  
covered areas. It is extremely dangerous to leave the  
appliance exposed to rain and storms.  
• Install the appliance in a fresh and well-ventilated  
room. Ensure that it is protected from direct sunlight  
and do not place it near heat sources.  
• Do not touch the appliance with bare feet or with wet or  
moist hands and feet.  
• Try to avoid keeping the door open for long periods or  
opening the door too frequently in order to conserve  
energy.  
• Do not touch the internal cooling elements: this could  
cause skin abrasions or frost/freezer burns.  
• When unplugging the appliance always pull the plug  
from the mains socket, do not pull on the cable.  
• Do not fill the appliance with too much food:  
cold air must circulate freely for food to be preserved  
properly. If circulation is impeded, the compressor will  
work continuously.  
• Before cleaning and maintenance, always switch off  
the appliance and disconnect it from the electrical  
supply. It is not sufficient to set the temperature  
adjustment knobs on (appliance off) to eliminate all  
electrical contact.  
• Do not place hot food directly into the refrigerator. The  
internal temperature will increase and force the  
compressor to work harder and will consume more  
energy.  
• In the case of a malfunction, under no circumstances  
should you attempt to repair the appliance yourself.  
Repairs carried out by inexperienced persons may  
cause injury or further malfunctioning of the appliance.  
• Defrost the appliance if ice forms (see Maintenance).  
A thick layer of ice makes cold transference to food  
products more difficult and results in increased  
energy consumption.  
• Do not use devices or tools other than the special  
scraper provided inside the compartments.  
• Regularly check the door seals and wipe clean to  
ensure they are free of debris and to prevent cold air  
from escaping (see Maintenance).  
• Do not put ice cubes taken directly from the freezer  
into your mouth.  
• Do not allow children to tamper with the controls or  
play with the appliance. Under no circumstance should  
they be allowed to sit on the bins or to hang from the  
door.  
• Keep packaging material out of the reach of children! It  
can become a choking or suffocation hazard.
