THE VARIOUS FUNCTION AND POSSIBILITIES
Information about New Generation Cooling Technology
Fridges with new-generation cooling technology have a different operating
system to static fridges. Other (static) fridges may experience a build up
of ice in the freezer compartment due to door openings and humidity in
the food. In such fridges, regular defrosting is required; the fridge must
be switched off, the frozen food moved to a suitable container and the
ice which has formed in the freezer compartment removed.
In fridges with new-generation cooling technology, a fan blows dry cold
air evenly throughout the fridge and freezer compartments. The cold air
cools your food evenly and uniformly, preventing humidity and ice build-up.
In the refrigerator compartment, air blown by the fan, located at the top
of the refrigerator compartment, is cooled while passing through the gap
behind the air duct. At the same time, the air is blown out through the
holes in the air duct, evenly spreading cool air throughout the refrigerator
compartment.
There is no air passage between the freezer and refrigerator compartments,
therefore preventing the mixing of odours.
As a result, your fridge, with new-generation cooling technology, provides
you with ease of use as well as a huge volume and aesthetic appearance.

Temperature Adjustment Warnings
• It is not recommended that you operate your fridge in environments colder than 10°C
in terms of its efciency.
• Do not start another adjustment while you are already making an adjustment.
• Temperature adjustments should be made according to the frequency of door openings,
the quantity of food kept inside the fridge and the ambient temperature in the location
of your fridge.
• In order to allow your fridge to reach the operating temperature after being connected to
mains, do not open the doors frequently or place large quantities of food in the fridge.
Please note that, depending on the ambient temperature, it may take 24 hours for your
fridge to reach the operating temperature.
• A 5 minute delay function is applied to prevent damage to the compressor of your fridge
when connecting or disconnecting to mains, or when an energy breakdown occurs. Your
fridge will begin to operate normally after 5 minutes.
• Your appliance is designed to operate in the ambient temperature (T/SN = 10°C - 43°C)
intervals stated in the standards, according to the climate class displayed on the
information label. We do not recommend operating your appliance out of the stated
temperature limits in terms of cooling effectiveness.
EN -16-
Climate class Meaning Ambient Temperature
T Tropical
This refrigerating appliance is intended to be used at
ambient temperatures ranging from 16 °C to 43 °C.
ST Subtropical
This refrigerating appliance is intended to be used at
ambient temperatures ranging from 16 °C to 38 °C.
N Temperate
This refrigerating appliance is intended to be used at
ambient temperatures ranging from 16 °C to 32 °C.
SN Extended temperate
This refrigerating appliance is intended to be used at
ambient temperatures ranging from 10 °C to 32 °C.
Important installation instructions
This appliance is designed to work in difcult climate conditions (up to 43 degrees C or 110
degrees F) and is powered with ‘Freezer Shield’ technology which ensures that the frozen
food in the freezer will not defrost even if the ambient temperature falls as low as -15 °C. So
you may then install your appliance in an unheated room without having to worry about frozen
food in the freezer being spoilt. When the ambient temperature returns to normal, you may
continue using the appliance as usual.
Temperature indicator
In order to help you better set your refrigerator, we have equipped it with a
temperature indicator located in the coldest area.
To better store the food in your refrigerator, especially in the coldest area, make
sure the message “OK” appears on the temperature indicator. If « OK » does
not appear, this means that the temperature setting has not been done properly.
Since “OK” appears in black, it will be difcult to see this indication if the temperature
indicator is badly lit. To be able to see this indication properly, there should be
enough light.
Each time the temperature setting device is changed, wait for the stabilisation of the
temperature inside the appliance before proceeding, if necessary, with a new temperature
setting. Please change the position of the temperature setting device progressively and wait
at least 12 hours before starting a new check and potential change.
NOTE: Following repeated openings (or prolonged opening) of the door or after putting fresh
food into the appliance, it is normal for the indication “OK” not to appear in the temperature
setting indicator. If there is an abnormal ice crystals build up (bottom wall of the appliance)
on the refrigerator compartment evaporator (overloaded appliance, high room temperature,
frequent door openings), put the temperature setting device on a lower position until
compressor off periods are obtained again.
Putting food in the coldest area of the refrigerator
Your foods will be better stored if you put them in the most appropriate cooling
area. The coldest area is just above the crisper.
The following symbol indicates the coldest area of your refrigerator.
To be sure to have a low temperature in this area, make sure the shelf is
located at the level of this symbol, as shown in the illustration.
OK
EN -17-
The upper limit of the coldest area is indicated by
the lower side of the sticker (head of the arrow).
The coldest area upper shelf must be at the same
level with the arrow head. The coldest area is below
this level.
As these shelves are removable, make sure they
are always at the same level with these zone limits
described on the stickers, in order to guarantee
temperatures in this area.

ARRANGING FOOD IN THE APPLIANCE
Refrigerator compartment
• To reduce humidity and avoid the consequent formation of frost, always store liquids in
sealed containers in the refrigerator. Frost tends to concentrate in the coldest parts of
the evaporating liquid and, in time, your appliance will require more frequent defrosting.
• Never place warm food in the refrigerator. Warm food should be allowed to cool at room
temperature and should be arranged to ensure adequate air circulation in the refrigerator
compartment.
• Make sure no items are in direct contact with the rear wall of the appliance as frost will
develop and packaging will stick to it. Do not open the refrigerator door frequently.
• We recommend that meat and clean sh are loosely wrapped and stored on the glass
shelf just above the vegetable bin where the air is cooler, as this provides the best
storage conditions.
• Store loose fruit and vegetable items in the crisper containers.
• Store loose fruit and vegetables in the crisper.
Storing fruit and vegetables separately helps prevent ethylene-sensitive vegetables
(green leaves, broccoli, carrot, etc.) being affected by ethylene-releaser fruits (banana,
peach, apricot, g etc.).
• Do not put wet vegetables into the refrigerator.
Storage time for all food products depends on the initial quality of the food and an
uninterrupted refrigeration cycle before refrigerator storage.
To avoid cross-contamination do not store meat products with fruit and vegetables.
Water leaking from meat may contaminate other products in the refrigerator. You should
package meat products and clean any leakages on the shelves.
• Do not put food in front of the air ow passage.
• Consume packaged foods before the recommended expiry date.
NOTE: Most efcient use of energy is ensured in the conguration with the drawers in
the bottom part of the appliance, and shelves evenly distributed, position of door bins
does not affect energy consumption.
NOTE: Potatoes, onions and garlic should not be stored in the refrigerator.
The table below is a quick guide to show you the most efcient way to store the major
food groups in your refrigerator compartment.
Food Maximum storage time How and where to store
Vegetables and fruits 1 week Vegetable bin
Meat and sh 2 - 3 Days
Wrap in plastic foil, bags, or in a meat

Eggs 1 month On the designated egg shelf
Cooked food 2 Days All shelves
Freezer compartment
• The freezer is used for storing frozen food, freezing fresh food, and making ice cubes.
• To use the maximum capacity of the freezer compartment, use the glass shelves for the
upper and middle section, and use the lower basket for the bottom section.
• Use the fast freezing shelf to freeze home cooking (and any other food which needs to
be frozen quickly) more quickly because of the freezing shelf’s greater freezing power.
Fast freezing shelf is the bottom drawer of the freezer compartment.
• For freezing fresh food; wrap and seal fresh food properly, that is the packaging should
be air tight and shouldn’t leak. Special freezer bags, aluminum foil polythene bags and
plastic containers are ideal.
• Do not store fresh food next to frozen food as it can thaw the frozen food.
• Before freezing fresh food, divide it into portions that can be consumed in one sitting.
• Consume thawed frozen food within a short period of time after defrosting
• Never place warm food in the freezer compartment as it will thaw the frozen food.
• Always follow the manufacturer's instructions on food packaging when storing frozen
food. If no information is provided food, should not be stored for more than 3 months
from the date of purchase.
• When purchasing frozen food, make sure that it has been stored under appropriate
conditions and that the packaging is not damaged.
• Frozen food should be transported in appropriate containers and placed in the freezer
as soon as possible.
• Do not purchase frozen food if the packaging shows signs of humidity and abnormal
swelling. It is probable that it has been stored at an unsuitable temperature and that
the contents have deteriorated.
The storage life of frozen food depends on the room temperature, the thermostat setting,
how often the door is opened, the type of food, and the length of time required to transport
the product from the shop to your home. Always follow the instructions printed on the
packaging and never exceed the maximum storage life indicated.
• The maximum amount of fresh food (in kg) that can be frozen in 24 hours is indicated
on the appliance label.
NOTE: If you attempt to open the freezer door immediately after closing it, you will nd that it will
not open easily. This is normal. Once equilibrium has been reached, the door will open easily.
Important note:
• Never refreeze thawed frozen food.
• The taste of some spices found in cooked dishes (anise, basilica, watercress, vinegar,
assorted spices, ginger, garlic, onion, mustard, thyme, marjoram, black pepper, etc.)
changes and they assume a strong taste when they are stored for a long period of time.
Therefore, add small amounts of spices to food to be frozen, or the desired spice should
be added after the food has thawed.
