EN HOW TO USE THE APPLIANCE FIRST TIME USE HOW TO START THE APPLIANCE After plugging the appliance to the mains, it starts the operation automatically. After starting the appliance, wait at least 4-6 hours before placing food into the appliance. TEMPERATURE SETTING The appliance is normally factory-set for operation at the recommended medium temperature. For details of setting temperature - see the Daily Reference Guide.

All shelves and pull-out baskets are removable. • • removing the baskets to allow the storage of big products. placing the food products directly on the freezer shelves. removing additional removable accessories.
EN 6TH SENSE FRESH CONTROL This function automatically works to ensure the optimal conditions to preserve the stored food. If there are any variations, 6th Sense Fresh Control immediately restores the ideal conditions. Results are outstanding: freshness preserved at best throughout the fridge cavity up to 4 times longer. FAST COOL The use of this function is recommended when placing a very high quantity of food in the refrigerator compartment.
KEY LOCK This function prevents anyone from inadvertently changing settings or switching off the appliance. To lock the keys, press Key Lock button for 3 seconds until the display shows the Key Lock indicator and an acoustic signal confirms the function has been selected. After 3 seconds Key Lock indicator goes off. When activated, pressing the other buttons (except Key Lock button) activates an audible signal and on display flashes the Key Lock indicator.

USING QUICK ICE TRAYS AS EUTETICS Quick Ice trays can also be used as eutetics to help in keeping the food frozen in case of power failure. For the best usage of them, place them above food stored in the top drawer of the freezer compartment. In this position the trays can still be used to make ice cubes, however the time needed to do that may be longer.
