Start-up and use

Starting the appliance

GB
! 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.
1. Insert the plug into the socket and ensure that the
internal light illuminates.
2. Turn the TEMPERATURE ADJUSTMENT knob to
an average value. After a few hours you will be
able to put food in the refrigerator.

Using the refrigerator to its full potential

The temperature inside the refrigerator compartment
automatically adjusts itself according to the position
of the thermostat knob.
1 = warmest
5 = coldest
We recommend, however, a medium position.
The cooling section of the refrigerator is located
inside the back wall of the refrigerator compartment
for increased space and improved aesthetics.
During operation, the back wall will be covered in
frost or water droplets depending on whether the
compressor is operating or paused. Do not worry,
the refrigerator is functioning normally.
PURE WIND
It is recognizable due to the presence of the
mechanism on the top part of the refrigerator
compartment ( see diagram ).

Pure Wind maximises air circulation, improving the
efficiency of the evaporator and helping to achieve
the optimal temperature inside the refrigerator as
quickly as possible each time it has been opened.
The blown air (A) is cooled when it comes into
contact with the cold wall, whereas the hotter air (B)
is sucked up ( see diagram ).
The back wall may be covered in frost or droplets of
water, depending on whether the compressor is in
operation or whether it is paused.
If the TEMPERATURE ADJUSTMENT knob has been

set on high values with large quantities of food and
with a high ambient temperature, the appliance can
operate continuously, resulting in excessive frost
formation and excessive energy consumption:
compensate for this by shifting the knob towards
lower values (defrosting will occur automatically).
• Place only cold or lukewarm foods in the
compartment, not 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 humidity in the refrigerator and cause
condensation to form.
SHELVES: with or without
grill.

Due to the special guides the
shelves are removable and
the height is adjustable ( see

diagram ), allowing easy
storage of large containers
and food. Height can be
adjusted without complete removal of the shelf.

BREAKFAST BOX
the storage of foods consumed at breakfast. It can
be removed and used at the breakfast table to serve
the food that, thanks to the special design of the
container, will maintain the correct temperature for
longer. The lid can be used as a practical tray,
simply by using the handles provided. The
Breakfast Box can also be used as a meat
container, for food products that must be well-
protected in order to be stored correctly.
