							• The temperature indicator is switched over from the indicator of the ACTUAL tempera-
ture (Temperature indicator is illuminated) to the indicator of the DESIRED temperature
(Temperature indicator flashes) by pressing one of the Temperature setting buttons.
• Each time one of the two buttons is pressed again the DESIRED temperature is adjusted
by 1°C. The DESIRED temperature must be reached within 24 hours.
If neither button is pressed, the temperature indicator automatically switches back after a
short period (approx. 5 sec.) to the indicator of the ACTUAL temperature.
DESIRED temperature means:
The temperature that has been selected for inside the fridge. The DESIRED temperature is
indicated by flashing numbers.
ACTUAL temperature means:
The temperature indicator shows the current temperature inside the fridge. The ACTUAL
temperature is indicated with illuminated numbers.
Temperature indicators
The temperature indicators show several information:
• During normal operation, the temperature currently set for fridge and freezer are dis-
played.
• When the temperature is being adjusted a flashing display indicates the fridge tempera-
ture currently set .
Temperature regulation
To operate the appliance, proceed as follows:
1. Set the required temperature by pressing the corresponding temperature regulator. The
temperature indicator will immediately show the changed setting and the temperature
indicator flashes.
2. Each time the temperature regulator is pressed the temperature is adjusted by 1 °C. The
set temperature will be reached within 24 hours.
3. The temperature indicator will change from flashing to continuous illumination.
For a correct storage of the food the following temperatures should be set:
• +5 °C in the fridge
• -18 °C in the freezer.
When the setting is changed, the compressor does not start immediately if automatic de-
frosting is currently taking place. As the storage temperature within the fridge is reached
quickly you can store food immediately after switching on.
TURBO COOLMATIC function
The TURBO COOLMATIC function is suited for quick cooling of large quantities of goods in
the refrigerator.
To activate the function, do these steps:
1. Press the TURBO COOLMATIC button.
2. The TURBO COOLMATIC indicator switches on.
The TURBO COOLMATIC function now provides for intensive cooling. A DESIRED tempera-
ture of +3°C is automatically selected.
The TURBO COOLMATIC function is ended automatically after a period of 6 hours.
You can deactivate the function at any time:
1. Press the TURBO COOLMATIC button.

tects foodstuffs already stored from undesirable warming.
To activate the function, do these steps:
1. Press the FROSTMATIC button.
2. The FROSTMATIC indicator switches on.
The FROSTMATIC function is ended automatically after a period of 52 hours.
You can deactivate the function at any time:

FIRST USE
Cleaning the interior
Before using the appliance for the first time, wash the interior and all internal accessories
with lukewarm water and some neutral soap so as to remove the typical smell of a brand-
new product, then dry thoroughly.
Do not use detergents or abrasive powders, as these will damage the finish.
DAILY USE
Freezing fresh food
The freezer compartment is suitable for freezing fresh food and storing frozen and deep-
frozen food for a long time.
To freeze fresh food activate the FROSTMATIC function at least 24 hours before placing the
food to be frozen in the freezer compartment.
Place the fresh food to be frozen in the upper compartment.
The maximum amount of food that can be frozen in 24 hours is specified on the rating
plate , a label located on the inside of the appliance.
The freezing process lasts 24 hours: during this period do not add other food to be frozen.
Storage of frozen food
When first starting-up or after a period out of use, before putting the products in the com-
partment let the appliance run at least 2 hours on the higher settings.
If large quantities of food are to be stored, remove all drawers and baskets from appliance
and place food on cooling shelves to obtain the best performance.
WARNING!
Make sure that foods do not exceed the load limit stated on the side of the upper section
(where applicable) 
First use29
 
						

							In the event of accidental defrosting, for example due to a power failure, if the power has
been off for longer that the value shown in the technical characteristics chart under rising
time, the defrosted food must be consumed quickly or cooked immediately and then re-
frozen (after cooling).
Frozen Food Calendar
The symbols show different types of frozen goods.
The numbers indicate storage times in months for the appropriate types of frozen goods.
Whether the upper or lower value of the indicated storage time is valid depends on the
quality of the foods and treating before freezing.
Thawing
Deep-frozen or frozen food, prior to being used, can be thawed in the refrigerator compart-
ment or at room temperature, depending on the time available for this operation.
Small pieces may even be cooked still frozen, directly from the freezer: in this case, cooking
will take longer.
Ice-cube production
This appliance is equipped with one or more trays for the production of ice-cubes. Fill these
trays with water, then put them in the freezer compartment.
Do not use metallic instruments to remove the trays from the freezer.
Cold accumulators
One or more cold accumulators are supplied in the freezer; these increase the length of
time for which food will keep in the event of a power failure or breakdown.
Movable shelves
The walls of the refrigerator are equipped with a
series of runners so that the shelves can be posi-
tioned as desired.
For better use of space, the front half-shelves can
lie over the rear ones.
