correctly and save energy.
3. Leaveaspaceofatleast10cmbetweenthetoppartofthe

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socketis incompatible withthe plug, askan authorised
techniciantoreplaceit(see Assistance).Donotuseextension
cordsormultiplesockets.
!Oncetheappliancehasbeeninstalled,thepowersupplycable
and the electrical socket must be easily accessible.
!Thecablemustnotbebentorcompressed.

Freezer Compartment
When theproduct isswitched onthe freezercompartment is
settoitsdefaultvalueof-18°C.WerecommendthattheQUICK
FREEZEfunctionisset(thefreezerstatusbarcontinuestodisplay
thesetvalue)inordertoacceleratethecoolingprocessofthe
compartment;whentheinsideofthecompartmenthasreached
itsoptimaltemperaturethefunctionwillbedeactivatedandthe
foodmaybeplacedinside.
Navigating the display
Setting the temperatures:
If theproduct is switched on, therefrigerator and freezer
compartmentdisplayswillindicatethetemperaturevaluessetat
thatmoment.Tochangethem,simplypressthe- and + buttons
correspondingtothecompartmentforwhichyouwishtochange
thesettemperature.Morespecifically,eachtimethebuttonsare
pressed,thetemperatureincreasesordecreasesandthelevelof
coldgeneratedinsidethecompartmentisadjustedaccordingly.
Thetemperaturevaluesthatmaybeselectedfortherefrigerator
compartmentare+8°C,+7°C,+6°C,+5°C,+4°C,+3°Cand+2°C,
whilethevaluesthatmaybesetforthefreezerare–18°,-19°,-
20°,-21°,-22°,-23°,-24°,-25°,-26°.WhentheI-CARE” function
isactive,theapplianceautomaticallyadjuststhetemperatures
accordingtotheconditionsinsideandoutsidetherefrigerator,in
ordertominimisetheamountofenergyconsumed;theactivation
of this function is signalled by the I-CARELED onthekeypad
lightingup.
WhentheHOLIDAY functionisactivethetemperaturemaynot
beadjusted,howevertheapplianceadjustsitselfautomaticallyso
thattheoptimalsettingsforthesituationareused:+12°C for the
refrigeratorcompartmentand-18°Cforthefreezercompartment.
The activation of this function is indicated by the HOLIDAY LED

apre-establishedorderofprioritywhichwillhelpyoutooperate
theproductinthebestpossibleway.
Chiller system
No Frost
TheNoFrost system circulates coldaircontinuouslytocollect
humidityandpreventiceandfrostformation.Thesystemmaintains
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
