Start-up and use

Starting the appliance

!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.

!The appliance comes with a motor protection control system which makes the compressor start approximately 8 minutes after being switched on. The compressor also starts each time the power supply is cut off whether voluntarily or involuntarily (blackout).

Once you have plugged the appliance into the mains socket, make sure the display is on (the FREEZER COMPARTMENT knob must not be on Off).

Freezer compartment

When you turn the appliance on (by turning the FREEZER and APPLIANCE ON/OFF Knob to the required freezer compartment operating temperature), we recommend you enable the SUPER FREEZE function to speed up the cooling process inside the compartment; when the latter has reached the optimal temperature, the function will be disabled and you may place the frozen foods inside the freezer.

Refrigerator compartment

When you turn the refrigerator compartment on (by turning REFRIGERATOR OPERATION Knob to the required refrigerator compartment operating temperature), we recommend you enable the SUPER COOL function to speed up the cooling process inside the compartment: after a few hours, you may place food inside the refrigerator.

Pure Wind Plus 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 GB up (see diagram).

The Pure Wind Plus products are also equipped with a filter which, thanks to the inclusion of silver ions, makes it possible to reduce bacteria by 70% and to eliminate odours inside the refrigerator unit, thereby guaranteeing improved food storage.

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.

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.

MULTI-USEbin: to store food (such as cold meats) for a long time and also prevent odours from lingering in the refrigerator. It can be removed for use and it may be shifted sideways to optimise space (see diagram).
