1. Check that OK appears clearly on the indicator light (see diagram).
GB
2. If the word "OK" does not appear it means that the temperature
is too high: adjust the REFRIGERATOR OPERATION knob to a
higher position (colder) and wait approximately 10 hours until the
temperature has been stabilised.
3. Check the indicator light again: if necessary, readjust it following
the initial process. If large quantities of food have been added or
if the refrigerator door has been opened frequently, it is normal
for the indicator not to show OK. Wait at least 10 hours before
adjusting the REFRIGERATOR OPERATION knob to a higher
setting.
Active Oxygen
This device releases ozone molecules inside the refrigerator; ozone
is a natural substance which combats bacteria and microorganisms,
reducing their proliferation while limiting unpleasant odours.
Automatically defines the amount of ozone required for prolonging
the freshness of foodstuffs, eliminating odours and preventing
bacteria build-up.
There may be a slight distinctive odour inside the refrigerator. The
very same smell can sometimes be detected during a storm, due to
the ozone produced as the charge in the lightning bolts is released;
this is completely normal. The amount produced by the device is
very small and abates quickly as the antibacterial action takes place.
Device is activated pressing the dedicated key on the dashboard.
With the Active Oxigen switched on, the device will operate a repeted
cycle until the key is pressed again. There will be an Ozone emission
noticed by the switching on of the green led located on the Active
Oxigen device located in the fridge compartment and a stand-by
cicle (without zone emission) noticed by blue light.

Food Care Zone
Area dedicated to the storage of fresh food, such as meat and fish.
Thanks to the low temperature inside the compartment, the Food Care
Zone extends the period of time for which the food can be stored,
keeping it fresh for up to a week.

Assistance Service.

Using the freezer to its full potential

• Use the FREEZER OPERATION knob to adjust the temperature
(see Description).
• Do not re-freeze food that is defrosting or that has already been
defrosted. These foods must be cooked and eaten (within 24
hours).
• Fresh food that needs to be frozen must not come into contact
with food that has already been defrosted. Fresh food must
be stored in the top FREEZER and STORAGE compartment
where the temperature drops below -18°C and guarantees
rapid freezing.
• To freeze fresh food in the best and safest way possible,
activate the SUPER FREEZE function 24 hours before placing
the food in the freezer. After placing the food inside, activate
the SUPER FREEZE function again; it will be deactivated
automatically after 24 hours;
• Do not place glass bottles which contain liquids, and which are
corked or hermetically sealed in the freezer because they could
break.
• The maximum quantity of food that may be frozen daily is
indicated on the plate containing the technical properties
located on the bottom left side of the refrigerator compartment
(for example: Kg/24h: 4).
! To avoid blocking the air circulation inside the freezer
compartment, it is advisable not to obstruct the ventilation holes
with food or containers.
! Do not open the door during freezing.
! If there is a power cut or malfunction, do not open the freezer
door. This will help maintain the temperature inside the freezer,
ensuring that foods are conserved for at least 9 -14 hours.
! To maximise space inside the freezer, all drawers [with the
exception of the bottom drawer] can be removed from their
positions and the food placed directly on the racks/glass shelves
supplied [where present].

Easy Ice
The double tub was designed to optimise space in the freezer
compartment and to ensure that ice is always readily available.
The trays can be stacked or filled and used separately.
Furthermore, the special fastening system makes Easy Ice an
extremely flexible solution, as it can be positioned in the right or
left part of the top drawers.
