FREEZING
• Foods must be fresh.
• Freeze small amounts of food at a time in order to freeze quickly.
Never exceed the maximum amount indicated on the rating label.
• During freezing, do not open the freezer door.
• Food must be sealed, airtight.
• Separate food to be frozen by those already frozen.
• Label bags or containers to keep an inventory of frozen foods.
• Once defrosted, do not ever refreeze foods and consume them
promptly.
NOTE:
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.5) clean in the refrigerator compartment
to keep it free of water.
The rating plate states the maximum quantity of foods that can be frozen, (see fi gure 5).
Defrosting of the fridge compartment occurs automatically in this
product.
We recommend you defrost the freezer area when the layer of frost is
more than 3 mm thick.
A small amount of frost or drops of water on the back of the fridge
compartment when the fridge is working is normal.
Make sure the water outlet is always clean and make sure foods do not
touch the back or sides of the fridge compartment.
(Figure 5)
N.B. Here you will find your appliance rating plate: it includes all the data to be transmitted to the Customer Service should a fault arise.
Important: if your ambient temperature is high, the appliance may operate continuously, thus building up excessive frost on
the inner wall of the fridge. In this case, turn the fridge knob to a warmer setting (1-2).
The most energy-saving configuration requires drawers, food box and shelves to be positioned in the product, please refer to the above
pictures
The temperature doesn't usually need to be adjusted.
Only in case you find excessive cooling of the products contained
in the refrigerator compartment, gently set the warmest tempera-
ture levels (1,2).
On completion of freezing, set the warmest temperature levels
(1,2).
IMPORTANT:
To prevent cracking of the inside surfaces and plastic parts, follow
these suggestions:
• Wipe away any food oils adhered to plastic components.
• The internal parts, gaskets and external parts can be cleaned with a cloth
with warm water and baking soda or a neutral soap. Do not use solvents,
ammonia, bleach or abrasives.
• Remove the accessories, for example, the shelves, from the refrigerator
and from the door. Wash in hot soapy water. Rinse and thoroughly dry.
• The back of the appliance tends to accumulate dust which can be
eliminated with the use of a vacuum cleaner, after having switched off and
disconnected the appliance from the electrical outlet. This provides greater
energy efficiency.
For better energy savings, we suggest:
• Installing the appliance away from heat sources and not exposed to
direct sunlight and in a well ventilated room.
• Avoid putting hot food into the refrigerator to avoid increasing the
internal temperature and therefore causing continuous functioning of
the compressor.
• Do not excessively stuff foods so as to ensure proper air circulation.
• Defrost the appliance in case there is ice (see DEFROSTING) to
facilitate the transfer of cold.
• ln case of absence of electrical energy, it is advisable to keep the
refrigerator door closed.
• Open or keep the doors of the appliance open as little as possible
• Avoid adjusting the thermostat to temperatures too cold.
• Remove dust present on the rear of the appliance (see CLEANING).

NOTICE:
• Before each operation, remove the refrigerator plug from the power
socket to prevent electric shocks.
• Do not pour water directly on the outside or inside of the refrigerator
itself. This could lead to oxidation and damaging of the electrical
insulation.
MAINTENANCE AND CLEANING
Lighting
Cleaning
During its operation, the refrigerator emits some absolutely normal noises,
such as:
• HUMMING, the compressor is running.
• RUMBLINGS, RUSTLINGS and HISSING, the refrigerant is flowing
through the tubes.
• TICKS and CLICKS, the operation shutdown of the compressor.
Small measures to reduce the vibration noises:
• Containers touch each other: Avoid contact between containers and
glass recipients.
• Drawers, shelves, bins vibrate: Check the proper installation of internal
accessories.
NOTE:
The refrigerant gas produces noise even when the compressor is off;
it is not a defect, it is normal.
If you hear a clicking sound inside the appliance, it is normal as due to
expansion of the various materials.
