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 of soda.
! The appliance comes with a motor protection control
system which means that the compressor starts up
approximately 8 minutes after being switched on. The
compressor also starts each time the power supply is
cut off, whether voluntarily or involuntarily (power cut/
blackout).
Insert the plug into the electrical socket and, if OFF
appears on both indicator displays (refrigerator and
freezer), switch the appliance on by holding the ON/OFF
button down for at least two seconds:
- the refrigerator will be set at a temperature of +5°C
- the freezer will be set at a temperature of -18°C.
To cool the two compartments more rapidly, activate the
SUPER COOL and SUPER FREEZE functions (
see
Display
).
Chiller system
The appliance is fitted with the following chiller system:
No Frost
This system can be recognised
by the aeration cells located on
the back walls of each
compartment.
The No Frost system circulates
cold air continuously to collect
humidity and prevent ice and frost
formation. The system maintains
an optimal humidity level in the compartment, preserving
the original quality of the food, preventing the food from
sticking together and making defrosting a thing of the
past.
! Do not block the aeration cells by placing food or
containers in direct contact with the refrigerating back
panel.
! Close bottles and wrap food tightly.
Using the refrigerator to its full
potential
Adjust the temperature using the display.
Activate the SUPER COOL function to lower the
temperature quickly, for example, when you place a
large number of new food items inside a fridge and
the internal temperature rises slightly. This function
quickly cools the groceries by temporarily reducing
the temperature until it reaches the ideal level.
Place only cold or lukewarm foods in the
compartment, never hot foods (
see Precautions and
tips
).
Remember that cooked foods do not last longer
than raw foods.
Do not store liquids in open containers: they will
increase the level of humidity in the refrigerator and
cause condensation to form.
