Start-up and use  
Starting the appliance  
Using the refrigerator to its full potential  
GB  
• Use the TEMPERATURE ADJUSTMENT knob to adjust

instructions (see Installation).  
the temperature (see Description).  
! Before connecting the appliance, clean the  
compartments and accessories well with lukewarm  
water and bicarbonate.  
• Place only cold or lukewarm foods in the  
compartment, not hot foods (see Precautions and  
tips).  
• Remember that cooked foods do not last longer than  
raw foods.  
1. Insert the plug into the socket and ensure that the  
internal light illuminates.  
2. Turn the TEMPERATURE ADJUSTMENT knob to an  
average value. After a few hours you will be able to  
put food in the refrigerator.  
• Do not store liquids in open containers. They will  
increase humidity in the refrigerator and cause  
condensation to form.  
SHELVES: with or without grill.

1 = warmest  
5 = coldest  
We recommend, however, a medium position.  
The cooling section of the refrigerator is located inside  
the back wall of the refrigerator compartment for  
increased space and improved aesthetics. During  
operation, the back wall will be covered in frost or water  
droplets depending on whether the compressor is  
operating or paused. Do not worry, the refrigerator is  
functioning normally.  
Using the freezer to its full potential  
• Do not re-freeze food that is defrosting or that has  
already been defrosted. These foods must be cooked  
and eaten (within 24 hours).  
If the TEMPERATURE ADJUSTMENT knob has been set  
on high values with large quantities of food and with a  
high ambient temperature, the appliance can operate  
continuously, resulting in excessive frost formation and  
excessive energy consumption: compensate for this by  
shifting the knob towards lower values (defrosting will  
occur automatically).  
• Fresh food that needs to be frozen must not come into  
contact with food that has already been defrosted.  
• Do not place glass bottles which contain liquids, and  
which are corked or hermetically sealed in the freezer  
because they could break.  
In static appliances, the air circulates in a natural way:  
the colder air tends to move downwards as it is heavier.  
The food should be stored as follows:  
• 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)

1. Set the TEMPERATURE ADJUSTMENT knob to the  
position  
.
2. Wrap frozen foods in newspaper and place them in  
another freezer or in a cool place.  
3. Leave the door open until the frost has melted  
completely. This can be made easier by placing  
containers with lukewarm water in the freezer  
compartment.  
4. Clean and dry the freezer compartment carefully  
before switching the appliance on again.  
5. Wait for approximately 2 hours, i.e. until the ideal  
storage conditions have been restored, before  
placing food in the freezer compartment.  
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.  
Avoiding mould and unpleasant odours  
Replacing the light bulb  
• 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 door  
open.  
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 or 15W).  
Defrosting the appliance  
! Follow the instructions below.  
Do not use objects with sharp or pointed edges to  
defrost the appliance as these may damage the  
refrigeration circuit beyond repair.  
The refrigerator has an automatic defrosting function:  
water is ducted to the  
back of the appliance by a  
special discharge outlet  
(see diagram) where the  
heat produced by the  
compressor causes it to  
evaporate. It is necessary  
to clean the discharge  
hole regularly so that the  
water can flow out easily.

Precautions and tips  
Disposal  
! 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.  
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  
electrical contact.  
(appliance off) to eliminate all  
• 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 any sharp or pointed utensils or electrical  
equipment - other than the type recommended by the  
manufacturer - inside the frozen food storage  
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.
