Using the appliance

Before any use

Before you start to use the appliance, pay special attention to the following points:
• The operating voltage of the appliance is 220 - 240 V and 50 Hz.
• We are not responsible for the damage caused by using the appliance with a power supply
that is not earthed.
• Install the appliance in a location where it will not be exposed to direct sunlight.
• Make sure it is installed at least 50 cm away from heat sources, such as stoves, ovens,
hot plates, etc., and at least 5 cm from electric ovens.
• Never use the appliance outdoors and never leave it in the rain.
• When the refrigerator is near a freezer, there must be a space of at least 2 cm between
the 2 appliances to prevent their outer surfaces from becoming wet.
• Do not put anything on top of the refrigerator. Install it in a suitable location, so that there
is at least 15cm of free space above the appliance.
• The adjustable feet at the front should be set to an appropriate height for the appliance
to be stable and to work properly. You can adjust the feet by turning them clockwise (or
anticlockwise). This must be done before placing food in the appliance.
• Before using the refrigerator, clean all its parts with hot water, to which a teaspoon of
baking soda has been added. Then, rinse them with clean water and dry them. Put all the
parts back in place after cleaning.
• Fit the plastic spacer (the part with the black fins on the back) by rotating it through 90°,
as shown in the figure opposite, to prevent the condenser from touching the wall.
• The appliance must be placed against the wall with a maximum clearance of 75 mm.
Before using the refrigerator
• If you are switching on the refrigerator for the first time or you have just transported it,
leave it in an upright position for 3 hours before plugging it in, to ensure optimal operation.
Failure to do so may damage the compressor.
• The refrigerator may emit odours when you use it for the first time; these odours will
disappear as the appliance cools.

Information about the cooling technology

• The refrigerators equipped with the latest generation of cooling technology operate
differently from static cold refrigerators. In conventional refrigerators, the moist air
entering the refrigerator and the cool vapour emanating from the food cause frost to
build up in the freezer compartment. To melt this ice, or defrost it, you must unplug the
refrigerator. During the shutdown period, take the food out of the appliance to keep it fresh
and remove the ice from inside.
• In refrigerators with the latest generation of cooling technology, the situation in the freezer
compartment is completely different. Thanks to a fan, the cool, dry air emerges from
several points inside the freezer compartment. Therefore, the flow of cold air that creates
a uniform distribution, even in the spaces between the shelves, also freezes the food evenly
and properly. What's more, no frost forms.
• The configuration of the refrigerator compartment is quite similar to that of the freezer
compartment. The air, which is blown by the fan located above the refrigerator compartment,
is cooled as it passes through the space behind the ventilation duct. At the same time, air
is blown through the holes in the ventilation duct, thereby completing the cooling process
in the refrigerator compartment. Thanks to the holes in the ventilation duct, the air is
distributed evenly in the compartment.
• Because there is no air passage between the freezer compartment and the refrigerator
compartment, there will be no mixing of odours either. This is what makes this refrigerator,
equipped with the latest generation of cooling technology, easy to use, besides its large
volume and great looks.
