INSTALLATION
WARNINGS:
• Do not install the appliance in a damp or wet location as this could
compromise the insulation and result in leakage.
Furthermore, on the exterior of the same, condensate could accumulate
• Do not place the appliance in locations outside or near sources of heat or
exposed to direct sunlight.
The appliance operates properly within the range of environmental
temperatures indicated:
+10 +32'C for the climatic class SN
+16 +32'C for the climatic class N
+16 +38'C for the climatic class ST
+16 +43'C for the climatic class T
(See the nameplate of the product)
• Do not place containers with liquids on top of the appliance.
• Wait at least 8 hours after final placement before switching the appliance
on.
Electrical connection
After shipping, place the appliance vertically and wait at least 8 hours before
connecting it to the electrical system. Before inserting the plug into the
electrical socket, make sure that:
• The socket is earthed and in compliance with the law.
• The socket can withstand the maximum power load of the appliance, as
indicated on the nameplate of the refrigerator.
• The power supply voltage is within the amounts indicated on the nameplate
of the refrigerator.
• The cord must not be folded or compressed.
• The cord must be checked regularly and replaced solely by authorized
technicians.
• The manufacturer declines any liability whenever these safety measures are
not respected.
Appliance start-up
Remove all wrapping/packaging present inside the appliance and clean with
water and baking soda or neutral soap.
After the installation, wait 2 - 3 hours to allow time for the refrigerator to
stabilize at normal working temperature, before placing fresh food inside.
If the power cord becomes disconnected, wait at least five minutes before
restarting the refrigerator/ freezer. At this point, the appliance is ready for
use.
OPERATION
Turning On/Off (no display)
• The thermostat unit for control of the appliance is located inside of the
refrigerator compartment (Fig. 1).
Rotate the thermostat knob of the thermostat beyond the "0" position.
The light is on when the refrigerator door is open. Turning the knob to "0"
.
completely turns off the product
Temperature adjustment (no display)
• The temperature adjustment of the fridge is controlled by rotating the
thermostat knob (Fig. 2).
Select the desired position:
• For colder temperature in the refrigerator and in the freezer, by turning
towards 5.
• For a less cold temperature in the refrigerator, rotate the thermostat knob
in the direction of OFF.
CONSERVATION
• To maintain the best flavour, nourishment and freshness of foods, it is
advisable to store them in the refrigerator compartment as shown in Fig. 6
below, making sure to wrap them in aluminum or plastic sheets or in
appropriate covered containers to avoid cross-contamination.
Refrigerator zone
Fruit / Vegetables
• To decrease fruit and vegetable moisture losses they must be wrapped in
plastic materials such as, for example, films or bags and then inserted in the
fruit/vegetable zone. In this way rapid deterioration is avoided.
FRIDGE ZONE
Indicator of the temperature in the coldest zone (not all
models)
Some models are equipped with an indicator of the temperature in the
refrigerator compartment in the coldest zone, for you to be able to control
the average temperature.
This symbol indicates the coldest zone of the refrigerator (Fig. 5).
Check that on the indicator of the temperature, the word OK is clearly shown
(Fig. 6). If the word does not appear, this means that the temperature is too
high: adjust the temperature to a cooler setting and wait for about 10 hours.
Recheck the indicator: if necessary, proceed with a new adjustment.
NOTE:
If large quantities of food are inserted or the refrigerator door frequently
opened, it is normal for the indicator fails to show OK. Wait at least 10 h
before adjusting the knob to a higher setting.
PRACTICAL RECOMMENDATIONS
Place food on the shelves in a homogeneous manner to allow air to circulate
properly and to cool it.
• Avoid contact between the food and the far end walls of the refrigerator
compartment.
• Do not introduce hot foods as they can cause deterioration of existing ones
and increase energy consumption.
• Remove the wrappings of foods before inserting them.
• Do not put in dishes or other containers unless previously washed.
•Do not obstruct the cold air ventilator openings with food.
• Do not cover the glass shelf of the vegetable bin to allow for proper air
circulation.
• ln the case of prolonged power outage, keep the doors closed so that foods
remain cold as long as possible.
• The installation of the appliance in a hot and humid location, with frequent
door openings and storing large amounts of vegetables can cause the
formation of condensate and affect the performance of the unit itself.
• To prevent excessive energy consumption, the frequent or prolonged
opening of the doors is not recommended.
DEFROSTING
Defrosting the refrigerator compartment
During normal functioning, the refrigerator is automatically defrosted.
There is no need to dry the drops of water present on the rear wall or to
eliminate the frost (depending on functioning).
The water is conveyed to the rear part through the drain hole found there
and the heat of the compressor causes it to evaporate.
• Keep the drainage pipe (Fig. 8) clean in the refrigerator compartment to
keep it free of water.
