GB 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).
1.Insert the plug into the socket and ensure that the internal light illuminates ( the FREEZER OPERATION knob must not be on the position ) .
2.Turn the FREEZER OPERATION knob and REFRIGERATOR OPERATION knob to an average value. After a few hours you will be able to put food in the refrigerator.
Setting the temperature
The temperature inside the refrigerator compartment automatically adjusts itself according to the position of the thermostat knob. min = warmest
max = coldest
We recommend, however, a medium position.
Chiller system
No Frost
Using the refrigerator to its full potential
•Place only cold or lukewarm foods in the compartment, never 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 the level of 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.
TEMPERATURE Indicator light*: to identify the coldest area in the refrigerator.
1.Check that OK appears clearly on the indicator light (see diagram).
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.
FRESH BOX*
This is the new box to keep meat, fish and cheese fresh. When positioned in the “lower” part of the fridge compartment, it is ideal for meat and fish; when moved to the “top” part of the fridge, it is perfect for cheese. It can be taken out of the fridge when it is not needed.
The No Frost system circulates cold air continuously to collect humidity and prevent ice and frost formation. The system maintains
Using the freezer to its full potential
an optimal humidity level in the compartment, preserving the original quality of the food, preventing the food from sticking together and making defrosting a thing of the past. Do not block the aeration cells by placing food or containers in direct contact with the refrigerating back panel. Close bottles and wrap food tightly.
* Varies by number and/or position, available only on certain models.
