USE
Cleaning the interior
Freezing fresh food
The 4-star compartment is suitable for long term
storage of commercially frozen food and for freezing
fresh food.
Before using the appliance for the first time, wash
the interior and all internal accessories with luke-
warm water and some neutral soap so as to remove
the typical smell of a brand-new product, then dry
thoroughly.
To freeze fresh foods it is not necessary to move the
thermostat knob from the normal setting.
Do not use detergents or abrasive
powders, as these will damage the finish.
However, for a faster freezing operation, turn the
thermostat knob to the coldest setting; but
remember that, in this condition, the refrigerator
compartment temperature might drop below 0¡C. If
this occurs reset thermostat knob to a warmer
setting.
Operation
Insert the plug into the wall socket.
Open the refrigerator door and turn the thermostat
knob, clockwise, beyond the ÇOÈ (STOP) position.
The appliance will start to operate.
Place the food to be frozen on the shelf of the
freezing compartment as this is the coldest part.
Storage of frozen food
To stop operation, simply turn the thermostat knob to
position ÇOÈ
When first starting-up or after a period out of use,
before putting the products in the compartment let
the appliance run for at least two hours on the
coldest setting, then turn the thermostat knob to the
normal operating position.
Temperature regulation
The temperature is automatically regulated and can
be increased to achieve a higher temperature
(warmer) by rotating the thermostat knob toward
lower settings or reduced (colder) rotating the knob
towards higher settings.
Important
In the event of accidental defrosting, for example
due to a power failure, if the power has been off
for longer that the value shown in the technical
characteristics chart under Òrising timeÓ, the de-
frosted food must be consumed quickly or cook-
ed immediately and then refrozen (after cooling).
However, the exact setting should be chosen
keeping in mind that the temperature inside the
refrigerator depends on:
¥
¥
¥
¥
room temperature;
how often the door is opened;
the quantity of food stored;
location of appliance.
Ice-cube production
A medium setting is generally the most suitable.
This appliance is equipped with one or more trays
for the production of ice-cubes. Fill these trays with
water, then put them in the freezer compartment.
Important
Do not use metallic instruments to remove the
trays from the freezer.
If the ambient temperature is high or the
appliance is fully loaded, and the appliance is
set to the lowest temperatures, it may run
continuously causing frost to form on the rear
wall. In this case the dial must be set to a higher
temperature to allow automatic defrosting and
therefore reduced energy consumption.
Thawing
Deep-frozen or frozen food, prior to being used, can
be thawed in the refrigerator compartment or at
room temperature, depending on the time available
for this operation.
Fresh food refrigeration
To obtain the best performance:
Small pieces may even be cooked still frozen,
directly from the freezer: in this case, cooking will
take longer.
¥
do not store warm food or evaporating liquids in
the refrigerator;
¥
do cover or wrap the food, particularly if it has a
strong flavour.
¥
Position food so that air can circulate freely round
it.
28
Movable shelves
The walls of the refrigerator are equipped with a
series of runners so that the shelves can be
positioned as desired.
D040
Door shelves
To permit storage of food packages of various sizes,
the door shelves can be adjusted in height.
To make these adjustments proceed as follows:
Gradually pull the shelf in the direction of the arrows
until it comes off, then reposition as required.

HINTS
Hints for refrigeration
Hints for freezing
Useful hints:
To help you make the most of the freezing process,
here are some important hints:
Meat (all types): wrap in polythene bags and place
on the glass shelf above the vegetable drawer.
¥
the maximum quantity of food which can be
frozen in 24 hrs. is shown on the rating plate;
For safety, store in this way only one or two days
at the most.
¥
the freezing process takes 24 hours. No further
food to be frozen should be added during this
period;
Cooked foods, cold dishes, etc..: these should be
covered and may be placed on any shelf.
¥
¥
only freeze top quality, fresh and thoroughly
cleaned, foodstuffs;
Fruit and vegetables: these should be thoroughly
cleaned and placed in the special drawer(s)
provided.
prepare food in small portions to enable it to be
rapidly and completely frozen and to make it
possible subsequently to thaw only the quantity
required;
Butter and cheese: these should be placed in
special airtight containers or wrapped in aluminium
foil or polythene bags to exclude as much air as
possible.
¥
¥
wrap up the food in aluminium foil or polythene
and make sure that the packages are airtight;
Milk bottles: these should have a cap and should
be stored in the bottle rack on the door.
do not allow fresh, unfrozen food to touch food
which is already frozen, thus avoiding a rise in
temperature of the latter;
Bananas, potatoes, onions and garlic, if not
packed, must not be kept in the refrigerator.
¥
¥
lean foods store better and longer than fatty
ones; salt reduces the storage life of food;
water ices, if consumed immediately after
removal from the freezer compartment, can
possibly cause the skin to be freeze burnt;
¥
it is advisable to show the freezing-in date on
each individual pack to enable you to keep tab of
the storage time;
29
¥
on the inner door or special card (if supplied) you
will find sketches of various animals and food
types together with the recommended storage
time (in months) from the time of freezing;
Hints for storage of frozen food
To obtain the best performance from this appliance,
you should:
¥
do not put carbonated liquids (fizzy drinks,
etc.) in the freezer compartment as they may
burst.
¥
make sure that the commercially frozen foodstuffs
were adequately stored by the retailer;
¥
be sure that frozen foodstuffs are transferred from
the foodstore to the freezer in the shortest
possible time;
¥
¥
¥
not open the door frequently or leave it open
longer than absolutely necessary.
Once defrosted, food deteriorates rapidly and
cannot be refrozen.
Do not exceed the storage period indicated by
the food manufacturer.
MAINTENANCE
Periods of non-operation
Unplug the appliance before carrying out
any maintenance operation.
When the appliance is not in use for long periods,
take the following precautions:
Periodic cleaning
Clean the inside with warm water and bicarbonate of
soda.
remove the plug from the wall socket;
remove all food;
defrost and clean the interior and all accessories;
Rinse and dry thoroughly.
leave the door ajar to allow air to circulate to prevent
unpleasant smells.
Interior light
The light bulb inside the refrigerator compartment
can be reached as follows:
- unscrew the light cover securing screw.
- unhook the moving part as shown in the figure.
If the light does not come on when the door is open,
check that it is screwed into place properly. If it still
does not light up, change the bulb.
The rating is shown on the light bulb cover.

Defrosting
Frost is automatically eliminated from the evaporator
of the refrigerator compartment every time the motor
compressor stops, during normal use. The defrost
water drains out through a trough into a special
container at the back of the appliance, over the
motor compressor, where it evaporates.
It is important to periodically clean the defrost
water drain hole in the middle of the refrigerator
compartment channel to prevent the water
overflowing and dripping onto the food inside.
Use the special cleaner provided, which you will
find already inserted into the drain hole.
The freezer compartment, however, will become
progressively covered with frost. This should be
removed with the special plastic scraper provided,
whenever the thickness of the frost exceeds 4 mm.
During this operation it is not necessary to switch off
the power supply or to remove the foodstuffs.
Never use sharp metal tools to scrape off frost
from the evaporator as you could damage it.
However, when the ice becomes very thick on the
inner liner, complete defrosting should be carried out
as follows:
1. pull out the plug from the wall socket or turn the
thermostat knob to the ÇOÈ setting;
2. remove any stored food, wrap it in several layers
of newspaper and put it in a cool place;
3. leave the door open, and introduce a container
filled with hot water (taking care to place this on a
lauer of cardboard) so as to accelerate the
defrosting process;
4. absorb all remaining water with a sponge and
then accurately dry the freezer;
D037
5. turn the thermostat knob back to the required
setting or replace the plug in the power socket.
6. After two or three hours, reload the previously
removed food into the compartment.
Important:
Never use sharp metal tools to scrape off frost
from the evaporator as you could damage it.
Do not use a maechanical device or any artificial
means to speed up the thawing process other
than those recommended by the manufacturer.
A temperature rise of the frozen food packs,
during defrosting, may shorten their safe storage
life.
