Use & Care guide
How to defrost the freezer compartment
1. It is advisable to set the temperature colder or turn on the Fast Freeze/Fast Cool* at least four hours before removing the
food from the freezer compartment, to prolong the preservation of the food during the defrosting phase.
2. To defrost, turn the appliance o and remove the drawers. Put the frozen food in a cool place. Leave the door open to
allow the frost to melt. To prevent the water from escaping during the defrost, it is advised that you place an absorbent
cloth on the bottom of the freezer compartment and wring it out regularly.
3. Clean the inside of the freezer compartment and dry it carefully.
4. Turn the appliance back on and put the food back inside.
Functional sounds
1. A buzz generated by the compressor is normal while the product is working.
2. Gurgling and crackles are generated by the passage of the refrigerant gas inside the
cooling circuit, therefore these are normal noises.
3. It’s possibile to "hear" creaks when the compressor is active and inactive: it is a normal
sound of the product’s structure.
4. Check that the balconies on the inside of the refrigerator door, the shelves and the
drawers in the refrigerator compartment are attached and positioned properly, to avoid possible vibrations.
5. Don’t place glass containers (bottles, jars, etc.) in direct contact with each other, to avoid vibrations.
6. This device is equipped with a compressor that operates at an optimum speed to minimize energy consumption. So it may
happen that in certain situations (in summer or if large quantities of food are introduced) that the compressor increases
the speed and therefore it is more noisy than usual.
Recommendation in case of no use of the appliance
In the event of non-use of the applicance
Disconnect the appliance from the power supply, empty it, defrost it (if necessary) and clean it.
Keep the doors slightly ajar to let air circulate inside the compartments. By doing this, you avoid the development of mould
and bad odours.
In the event of an interruption to the power supply
Keep the doors closed so the food stays cold for as long as possible. Do not re-freeze food that has partially defrosted. If there
is a prolonged power cut, the black out alarm may also activate (in products with electronics).
