Installation
! Before placing your new appliance into operation please read
these operating instructions carefully. They contain important
information for safe use, for installation and for care of the appliance.
! Please keep these operating instructions for future reference. Pass
them on to possible new owners of the appliance.
Positioning and connection
Positioning
1. Place the appliance in a well-ventilated humidity-free room.
2 . Do not obstruct the rear fan grills. The compressor and
condenser give off heat and require good ventilation to operate
correctly and save energy.
3. Leave a space of at least 10 cm between the top part of the
appliance and any furniture above it, and at least 5 cm between
the sides and any furniture/side walls.
4. Ensure the appliance is away from any sources of heat (direct
sunlight, electric stove, etc.).
5 . In order to maintain the correct distance between the appliance
and the wall behind it, fit the spacers supplied in the installation kit,
following the instructions provided.
Levelling
1. Install the appliance on a level and rigid floor.
2 . If the floor is not perfectly horizontal, adjust the refrigerator by
tightening or loosening the front feet.
Electrical connections
After the appliance has been transported, carefully place it vertically
and wait at least 3 hours before connecting it to the electricity mains.
Before inserting the plug into the electrical socket ensure the
following:
• The appliance is earthed and the plug is compliant with the law.
• The socket can withstand the maximum power of the appliance,
which is indicated on the data plate located on the bottom left side
of the fridge (e.g. 150 W).
• The voltage must be in the range between the values indicated
on the data plate located on the bottom left side (e.g. 220-240V).
• The socket is compatible with the plug of the appliance. If the

WARNING:
THIS APPLIANCE MUST BE EARTHED.
Replacing fuse covers:
When replacing a faulty fuse, a 13amp ASTA approved fuse to BS
1362 should always be used and the fuse cover re-fitted.
If the fuse cover is lost, the plug must not be used until a
replacement is obtained.Replacement fuse covers:
If a replacement fuse cover is fitted, it must be of the correct colour
as indicated by the coloured marking or the colour that is embossed
in words on the base of the plug.
Changing the plug:
Removing the plug
If your appliance has a non-rewireable moulded plug and you should
wish to remove it to add a longer cable or to re-route the mains cable
through partitions, units etc. please ensure that either:
- The plug is replaced by a fused 13amp re-wireable plug bearing
the BSI mark of approval.
or

Accessories
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.
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.
1. Insert the plug into the socket and ensure that the internal light
illuminates.
2 . Turn the TEMPERATURE ADJUSTMENT 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.
 = warmest
 = coldest
We recommend, however, a medium position.
The cooling section of the refrigerator is located inside the back wall
of the refrigerator compartment for increased space and improved
aesthetics. During operation, the back wall will be covered in frost or
water droplets depending on whether the compressor is operating or
paused. Do not worry, the refrigerator is functioning normally.
Chiller system
The appliance comes with one of the chiller systems described
below: take note of your system in order to determine the most
efficient food storage method.
PURE WIND *
It is recognizable due to the presence of the mechanism on the top
part of the refrigerator compartment (
see diagram).
A
BB
BA
Pure Wind  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 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.If the TEMPERATURE ADJUSTMENT knob has been set on high
values with large quantities of food and with a high ambient
temperature, the appliance can operate continuously, resulting in
excessive frost formation and excessive energy consumption:
compensate for this by shifting the knob towards lower values
(defrosting will occur automatically).
Static
Models without the Aircooler have the cooling section in the internal
back wall of the compartments. The wall will be covered in frost or
water droplets depending on whether the compressor is operating
or paused: both cases are normal. If the TEMPERATURE
ADJUSTMENT knob has been set on high values with large
quantities of food and with a high ambient temperature, the
appliance can operate continuously, resulting in excessive frost
formation and excessive energy consumption: compensate for this
by shifting the knob towards lower values (defrosting will occur
automatically).
In static appliances, the air circulates in a natural way: the colder air
tends to move downwards as it is heavier. The food should be
stored as follows:
Food Arrangement inside the 
refrigerator 
Fresh fish and meat  Above the fruit and vegetable bins 
Fresh cheese  Above the fruit and vegetable bins 
Cooked food  On any shelf 
Salami, loaves of bread, 
chocolate On any shelf 
Fruit and vegetables In the fruit and vegetable 
compartment bins 
Eggs  On the shelf provided 
Butter and margarine  On the shelf provided 
Bottles, drinks, milk  On the shelves provided 
 
Using the refrigerator to its full potential
• Use the TEMPERATURE ADJUSTMENT knob to adjust the
temperature (
see Description).
• Place only cold or lukewarm foods in the compartment, not 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
humidity in the refrigerator and cause condensation to form.
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 (colder) position and wait approximately 10 hours until
the temperature has 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

PLEASE PHONE US TO REGISTER YOUR APPLIANCE AND ACTIVATE YOUR 5 YEAR PARTS GUARANTEE ON 08448 24 24 24for the indicator not to show OK. Wait at least 10 hours before
adjusting the REFRIGERATOR OPERATION knob to a higher
setting.
Food hygiene
1. Once you have bought your food, remove all external
packaging made of paper/cardboard or other wrappers, which
could introduce bacteria or dirt inside your refrigerator.
2. Protect the food, (especially easily perishable items and those
that have a strong smell), in order to avoid contact between
them, thereby removing both the possibility of germ/bacteria
contamination as well as the diffusion of strong odours inside the
fridge.
3. Store all food in such a way as to ensure air can circulate freely
between different items.
4. Keep the inside of your fridge clean, taking care not to use
oxidiser or abrasive products.
5. Remove all food past its expiry date from the refrigerator.
6. For the correct preservation of food, all easily perishable items
(soft cheeses, raw fish, meat, etc.) should be stored in the
coldest zone of the fridge compartment, i.e. just above the salad
crisper where the temperature indicator is situated.
Using the freezer to its full potential
• Do not re-freeze food that is defrosting or that has already been
defrosted. These foods must be cooked and eaten (within 24
hours).
• Fresh food that needs to be frozen must not come into contact
with food that has already been defrosted. Fresh food must be
stored in the top FREEZER and STORAGE compartment where
the temperature drops below -18°C and guarantees rapid
freezing.
• Do not place glass bottles which contain liquids, and which are
corked or hermetically sealed in the freezer because they could
break.
• The maximum quantity of food that may be frozen daily is
indicated on the plate containing the technical properties located
on the bottom left side of the refrigerator compartment (for
example: Kg/24h: 4)
• In order to obtain a greater amount of space in the freezer
compartment, you may remove the bins (except the lowest bin
and the special COOL CARE ZONE bin, which has an adjustable
temperature) and place the food directly onto the evaporator
plates.
! Do not open the door during freezing.
! If there is a power cut or malfunction, do not open the freezer door.
This will help maintain the temperature inside the freezer, ensuring
that foods are conserved for at least 9 -14 hours.
! If the room temperature drops below 14°C for an extended period
of time, the ideal temperature will not be reached in the freezer
compartment and food preservation will be reduced.
Ice
3 ice tray*
The fact that they are situated on the top part of the freezer drawers
ensures greater cleanliness: the ice no longer comes into contact
with the food placed inside the freezer compartment; furthermore,
the dripping of the water during filling is avoided (a lid to cover up the
hole after filling with water is also provided).
1. Pull out the tray by pushing it up. Check that the tray is ompletely
empty and fill it with water through the opening provided.
2 . Take care not to exceed the level indicated (MAX WATER
LEVEL). Excess water prevents the ice cubes from dispensing (if
this happens, wait for the ice to melt and empty the tray).
3. Turn the tray 90°: due to the connected compartments each
mould fills with water (
see diagram).4. Close the opening with the lid provided and put the tray back,
placing the top part in the corresponding housing and allowing it
to drop in again.
5. When the ice has formed (minimum time approximately 8 hours)
knock the tray against a hard surface and wet the outside so that
the ice cubes come loose and take them out through the opening.

sufficient to set the temperature adjustment knobs on 
(appliance off) to eliminate all electrical contact.
• In the case of a malfunction, under no circumstances should you
attempt to repair the appliance yourself. Repairs carried out by
inexperienced persons may cause injury or further
malfunctioning of the appliance.
• Do not use any sharp or pointed utensils or electrical equipment
- other than the type recommended by the manufacturer - inside
the frozen food storage compartments.
• Do not put ice cubes taken directly from the freezer into your
mouth.
• This appliance is not intended for use by persons (including
children) with reduced physical, sensory or lack of experience
and knowledge unless they have been given supervision or
instruction concerning use of the appliance by a person
responsible for their safety. Children should be supervised to
ensure that they do not play with the appliance.
• Keep packaging material out of the reach of children! It can

Disposal
• Observe local environmental standards when disposing
packaging material for recycling purposes.
• The European Directive 2002/96/EC on Waste Electrical and
Electronic Equipment (WEEE), requires that old household
electrical appliances must not be disposed of in the normal
unsorted municipal waste stream. Old appliances must be
collected separately in order to optimise the recovery and
recycling of the materials they contain and reduce the impact on
human health and the environment. The crossed out “wheeled
bin” symbol on the product reminds you of your obligation, that
when you dispose of the appliance it must be separately
collected. Consumers should contact their local authority or
retailer for information concerning the correct disposal of their
old appliance. (
see diagram) where the heat produced by the compressor
causes it to evaporate. It is necessary to clean the discharge hole
regularly so that the water can flow out easily.
Defrosting the freezer compartment
If the frost layer is greater than 5 mm, it is necessary to defrost
manually:
1. Set the TEMPERATURE ADJUSTMENT knob to the position 
.
2 . Wrap frozen foods in newspaper and place them in another
freezer or in a cool place.
3. Leave the door open until the frost has melted completely. This
can be made easier by placing containers with lukewarm water in
the freezer compartment.
4. Clean and dry the freezer compartment carefully before
switching the appliance on again.
5. Certain appliances are fitted with the DRAIN SYSTEM to lead the
water outside: let the water flow into a container (

Respecting and conserving the
environment
• Install the appliance in a fresh and well-ventilated room. Ensure
that it is protected from direct sunlight and do not place it near
heat sources.
• Try to avoid keeping the door open for long periods or opening
the door too frequently in order to conserve energy.
• Do not fill the appliance with too much food: cold air must
circulate freely for food to be preserved properly. If circulation is
impeded, the compressor will work continuously.
• Do not place hot food directly into the refrigerator. The internal
temperature will increase and force the compressor to work
harder and will consume more energy.
• Defrost the appliance if ice forms (
see Maintenance). A thick
layer of ice makes cold transference to food products more
difficult and results in increased energy consumption.
• Regularly check the door seals and wipe clean to ensure they
are free of debris and to prevent cold air from escaping (
see
Maintenance).
Troubleshooting
If the appliance does not work, before calling for Assistance (see
Assistance), check for a solution from the following list.
The internal light does not illuminate.
• The plug has not been inserted into the electrical socket, or not far
enough to make contact, or there is no power in the house.
The refrigerator and the freezer do not cool well.
• The doors do not close properly or the seals are damaged.
• The doors are opened too frequently.
• The TEMPERATURE ADJUSTMENT knob is not in the correct
position.
• The refrigerator or the freezer have been over-filled.
• The atmospheric temperature of the area surrounding the
appliance is lower than 14°C.
The food inside the refrigerator is beginning to freeze.
• The TEMPERATURE ADJUSTMENT knob is not in the correct
position.
• The food is in contact with the back inside wall of the refrigerator.
The AIR fan does not rotate
• The refrigerator door is open.
• The AIR system is only activated automatically when it becomes
necessary to restore perfect operational conditions inside the
refrigerator compartment.
The motor runs continuously.
• The door is not closed properly or is continuously opened.
• The outside ambient temperature is very high.
• The thickness of the frost exceeds 2-3 mm (
see Maintenance).
The appliance makes a lot of noise.
• The appliance has not been installed on a level surface (
see
Installation).• The appliance has been installed between cabinets that vibrate and
make noise.
• The internal refrigerant makes a slight noise even when the
compressor is off. This is not a defect, it is normal.
Some of the external parts of the refrigerator become hot.
• These raised temperatures are necessary in order to avoid the
formation of condensation on certain parts of the product.
The back wall of the refrigerator unit is covered in frost or
droplets of water
• This shows the appliance is operating normally.
There is water at the bottom of the refrigerator.
• The water discharge hole is blocked (
