ENERGY SAVING TIPS

- Install it well

And therefore far from heat sources, from direct sunlight, in a well aired place and according to the distances indicated in the section on "Installation/Aeration".

- Just the right cold

Too cold a compartment increases energy consumption.

- Do not Overfill

To conserve food properly, the cold air must circulate freely within the refrigerator. If it is overfilled, this will prevent proper air circulation, forcing the compressor to work continuously.

- Close the Doors

Open your refrigerator as little as possible because each time you do so you loose much of the cold air. To raise the tem- perature to the proper level again, the motor must work for a long time, consuming energy.

- Keep an Eye on the Seals

Keep the seals clean and make sure that they adhere well to the door. This alone will ensure that no cold air escapes.

- No Hot Foods

A hot pot or pan placed in the refrigerator immediately raises the temperature several degrees. Let hot cookware and food cool to ambient temperature before placing them in the re- frigerator.

BUZZERS AND VISUAL WARNINGS

Door open alarm

If the refrigerator door is left open for more than two minutes, the internal light begins to flash; a buzzer sounds, and the latter can be turned off by shutting (or by opening and then shutting) the door or by pressing the RESET ALARM (C) button.

Abnormal freezer heating alarm

1.To signal an excessive heating on the part of the freezer, a buzzer will sound and a scrolling text message comes up on the display to signal an excessive heating of the compartment. To prevent food from refreezing, the freezer will try to maintain a temperature of 0°C, thus allowing you to use up the food within 24 hours. Cooked food can be refrozen. You can turn the buzzer off simply by

pressing the RESET ALARM (C) button. To return to normal operation and cancel the alarm message from the display, press the RESET ALARM (C) button again.

2.If the temperature inside the freezer continues to rise to excessively high values, the buzzer will sound yet again and another scrolling text message will come up on the display to signal the dangerous state of overheating. We recommend you check the conditions of the food, as it may be necessary to throw it away. The buzzer can be turned off by simply pressing the RESET ALARM (C) button. To return to normal operation and cancel the alarm message from the display, press the RESET ALARM (C) button again.
