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.
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
 Use the FREEZER OPERATION knob to adjust the
temperature (see Description).
 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.
 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).
 The top drawer can be used to store several types of
food (semifreddo frozen desserts, ice creams and
alcohol) at the most suitable temperature; the lower
drawer (see overall view) is designed to store frozen
food in normal conditions.
To freeze food (if the freezer is already in operation),
deactivate the TVZ and empty the top drawer, press
the rapid-freezing SUPER FREEZE button (the
corresponding LED lights up), place the food inside
and close the drawer. The function is deactivated
automatically after 24 hours or when the optimal
temperatures have been reached (LED switches off).
The food may now be moved to the lower drawer (so
that the TVZ functions may be used) or left in the TVZ
compartment which, when left inactive, will function
as a normal storage compartment.
! to avoid blocking the air circulation inside the freezer
compartment, it is advisable not to obstruct the
ventilation holes with food or containers.
! 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.
TVZ compartment
The TVZ is a special compartment in the freezer which
allows the user to choose between 5 different
operating modes that may be set according to
specific requirements and the type of food stored
inside. The temperature settings available are +4°C,
0°C, -12°C and -18°C; these options are displayed on
the control panel (FREEZER COMPARTMENT knob).
The TVZ has an independent control feature; it may
also be deactivated using the control panel, for use as
a normal freezer compartment.
WARNING: the TVZ compartment does not
instantly shift from one temperature setting to
another, as it requires a certain amount of time to
stabilise.
