Start-up and use

Starting the appliance

! Before starting the appliance, follow the installation

instructions (see Installation).

! Before connecting the appliance, clean the
compartments and accessories well with lukewarm
water and bicarbonate.

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.

Setting the temperature

The temperature inside the refrigerator compartment
automatically adjusts itself according to the position of
the thermostat knob.

= warmest

= 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.

Chiller system

The appliance comes with one of the chiller systems
described below: take note of your system in order to
determine the most efficient food storage method.

Aircooler

A

B

It is recognizable due to the presence of the mechanism
on the top part of the refrigerator compartment (

see

diagram). The Aircooler maintains a constant fridge
temperature to keep food fresher for longer and will
quickly restore the temperature to the correct level, even
if the door is opened frequently: the blown air (A) is
cooled when it comes into contact with the cold wall,
whereas the hotter air (B) is sucked up (

see diagram).

The back wall may be covered in frost or droplets of
water, depending on whether the compressor is in
operation or whether it is paused.

Static
Models without the Aircooler have the cooling section in
the internal back wall of the compartments. The wall will
be covered in frost or water droplets depending on
whether the compressor is operating or paused: both
cases are normal. 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).
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:
