OPERATION

Starting-up and Temperature Regulation

Insert the plug into the wall socket. Open the

refrigerator door and turn the thermostat knob, to

be found on the upper right side of the inner liner,

clockwise, beyond the «O» position, to start the

appliance.

Temperature adjustment is obtained by turning the

thermostat knob to the required setting. A medium

setting is generally the most suitable. However, the

thermostat knob setting should be adjusted

depending on the temperature required inside the

appliance. This, in turn, depends on a number of

factors such as the ambient temperature, the

number of times the door is opened, the quantity of

food stored and the location of the appliance. Turn

the knob clockwise, to higher numbers, to obtain a

lower temperature, or anticlockwise if a higher

temperature is required.

Storage of foods in refrigerator compartment

To achieve the best results with the refrigerator

compartment, you should follow some very simple

rules:

Do not put warm foods or evaporating liquids in the

refrigerator;

cover or wrap foods (particularly if they have a

strong smell or contain aromatic herbs);

do not cover the shelves with paper or plastic since

this blocks the air circulation in the compartment.

Please note: Do not place foodstuffs and paperbags

etc. in contact with the evaporator plate at the rear

of the refrigerator compartment as this can lead to

impairment of the operation of the refrigerator.

Further hints for getting the best out of your

refrigerator are the following:

Cooked food, cold dishes, jellies etc., should be well

covered.

Fruit and vegetables should be washed before being

stored.

Raw meat (all types, including poultry) should be

stored in plastic bags.

In this position, fresh meat can be stored for 1-2 days at

most.

Inner arrangement

Movable shelves

The walls of the refrigerator are equipped with a

series of runners so that the shelves can be

positioned as desired.

For better use of space, the front half-shelves can

lie over the rear ones (Fig. 7).

Fig. 7

Positioning the 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 free, then reposition as

required.

Freezing fresh food

The 4-star compartment ( ) is suitable for

long term storage of commercially frozen food, and

for freezing fresh food.

Under normal circumstances, to freeze fresh foods

it is not necessary to change the setting of the

thermostat knob with respect to the normal running

position.

However, for a quicker freezing operation, turn the

thermostat knob to the coldest setting, but

remember that, in this condition, the refrigerating

compartment temperature might drop below 0°C. If

this occurs reset thermostat knob to a warmer

setting.

To help you make the most of the freezing process,

here are some important hints:

Place the food to be frozen on the shelf.

The maximum quantity of food which can be frozen in 24

hours is shown on the rating plate.

Only freeze top quality, fresh and thoroughly

cleaned foodstuffs.

Prepare the fresh 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 at the time.

Wrap up the food in aluminium foil or polythene and

make sure that the packages are airtight.

It is advisable to show on the single food packet the

freezing-in date to enable you to keep tab of the

storage time.

Do not allow fresh, unfrozen food to touch food

which is already frozen, thus avoiding a rise in

temperature of the latter.

Important

Do not put carbonated liquids (ﬁzzy drinks, etc.) in

the freezing compartment as they may burst.

Water ices, if consumed immediately after removal

from the freezing compartment, can possibly cause

the skin to be freeze burnt.

Remember that, once thawed, frozen food

deteriorates rapidly.

On the rear side of the door you will ﬁnd a list of

foods followed by a number. These numbers indicate

the maximum period of time for which the food in

question may be conserved (in months).

Storage of frozen food

To obtain the best performance from this appliance,

we strongly recommend that you make sure that

the commercially frozen foodstuffs were adequately

stored by the retailer and, furthermore, be sure

that these frozen foodstuffs are transferred from

the foodstore to the freezer in the shortest possible

time (a temperature increase of the frozen food

could shorten its storage period).

It is also advisable not to exceed the storage period

indicated by the producer of the food.

Finally, do not open the door frequently or leave it

open longer than absolutely necessary.

If there is a power failure when food is in the

freezer, do not open the door of the freezing

compartment.

The frozen food will not be affected if the power cut

is of short duration (a temperature increase of the

frozen food could shorten its safe storage period),

otherwise it is recommended that the food should be

used within a very short time.

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.

Small pieces may even be cooked still frozen,

directly from the freezer: in this case, cooking will

take longer.

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 on the back of the appliance

where it evaporates.

Periodically clean the defrosting water drainage hole of

the refrigerator, using the special cleaner already

inserted into the discharge hole.

Fig. 10

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.

However, when the ice becomes very thick on the

inner liner, complete defrosting should be carried

out and it is advisable to carry out this operation

when the appliance is empty.

To carry out complete defrosting of the freezer

compartment ( ) proceed as follows:

Unplug the appliance from the power supply or set

the thermostat on the «O» position. Remove the

ice-cube trays and the frozen foods and wrap them

in several sheets of newspaper or, even better, in

thermally insulated containers, and then keep them

in a cool place.

Keep the freezer door open and introduce a

container ﬁlled with hot water (taking care to place

this on a layer of cardboard) so as to accelerate the

defrosting process.

D037

Place a basin on the ﬁrst grill shelf in the

refrigerator directly below the drainage hole and

lift up the small lid.

Fig. 11

Absorb all remaining water with a sponge and then

accurately dry the freezer. Reconnect the appliance

to the power supply and then set the thermostat to

the coldest position for approximately 2 hours and

then shift it into the normal functioning status.

Replace the foods previously removed from the

freezer and the ice cubes trays.

Important

Do not use a mechanical device or any artiﬁcial

means to speed up the thawing process other than

those recommended by the manufacturer.

Remember that an increase in the surface

temperature of already-frozen foods may

signiﬁcantly decrease the duration of their

conservation.

Ice-cube production

This appliance is equipped with trays for the

production of ice-cubes.

Fill these trays with water to 3/4 of their height,

then put them in the freezer compartment.

The ice-cubes may be shaken out from the trays by

simply twisting; do not use metallic instruments to

remove the trays from the freezer.

PR116

MAINTENANCE

Unplug the appliance before carrying out any

maintenance operation.

Warning

This appliance contains hydrocarbons in its cooling

unit; maintenance and recharging must therefore

only be carried out by authorized technicians.

Internal cleaning

Never use metal objects for cleaning your appliance

as it may get damaged.

Clean the inside and accessories of the refrigerating

compartment with warm water and sodium

bicarbonate (one tablespoon in 4 litres of water).

Rinse and dry thoroughly.

Clean the inside of the freezer compartment after

each complete defrosting.

External cleaning

Wash the outer cabinet with warm soapy water.

Do not use abrasive products.

Once or twice a year dust the condenser (black grill)

and compressor at the back of the appliance with a

brush or vacuum cleaner. An accumulation of dust

will affect the performance of the appliance and

cause excessive electricity consumption.

Periods of non-operation

When the appliance is not in use for long periods,

disconnect from the mains, empty and clean, leaving

the door ajar to prevent unpleasant smells.

Replacing the interior light bulb

The light bulb inside the refrigerator compartment

can be reached as follows:

ª unscrew the light cover securing screws;

ª unhook the moving part by pressing it as shown

in the ﬁgure.

If the door is open and the light does not come on,

check that it is screwed in adequately; if it still does

not work, replace it with one of the same power.

The rating is shown on the light bulb cover.
