2. If the word “OK” does not appear it means that the
temperature is too high: adjust the REFRIGERATOR
OPERATION knob to a higher position (colder) and
wait approximately 10 hours until the temperature
has been 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.
Food hygiene
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.
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.

OFF switches the
appliance off, including

• 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 packed in the top
FAST FREEZER compartment where the
temperature drops below -18°C and guarantees
rapid freezing.
• 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.
! To avoid blocking the air circulation inside the
freezer, it is advisable not to obstruct the ventilation
holes with food or containers.
ICE DEVICE
After pouring water in the
special ice cups, place them in
their places in the ice device.
After about 2 hours, the ice
cubes will be ready. In order to
get the ice cubes, it will be
sufficient to turn the two buttons

If you need more storage
space, the ICE DEVICE may be
taken out after you have
removed the 4 fixing screws.
