With the SUPER ICEfunction,itispossibletoin-

(up to 1.5 kg a day), while with the CUBE SIZE
functionyoucanselectthesizeofthecubespro-
duced (see also chapter "Setting the ice cubes
sizeandSuperIcefunction(onlyonsomemod-

Any problems encountered
Does the ice give off an unusual smell?
Ice is a porous material which can absorb odours
from its surroundingenvironment. Ice cubeswhich
havebeenintheicecubecontainerforalongtime
may absorb odours, stick together and slowly be-
comesmaller.
Werecommendthatoldicecubesnotbeused.
Othermeansofpreventingodours:
> The ice cube container should be cleaned occa-
sionallywithwarmwater.Makesurethatyouswitch
otheicemakerbeforeclearingthecontainer.Rinse
itoutandwipeitdry.
> Checkthecontentsofthefreezerforspoiledorout-
of-date food. All odorous foods should be wrapped
thoroughlyorstoredinairtightcontainerstoprevent
theodoursfromaccumulating.
> Thewaterlterhastobereplacedperiodically.
> Insomecasesthequalityofthewaterconnection
inthehouseshouldbechecked.
Operating noises
> Hum:therefrigerator unit is running. The fan in

> Clicking: motor is switching on or o. Solenoid

> Rumbling: ice cubes are falling into the ice cube

The appliance is powered by two inde-

Warning
Do not placeany bottles or food in the

Activating/Deactivating the Ice maker
ToactivatetheIcemakeraftertheinstallationof
the appliance, see chapter 5) Activating/Deacti-

page 63. If the appliance is operating without
beingconnectedtothewatersystem,makesure
thattheIcemakerisdeactivated.
Productivity and cubes size
OncetheIcemakerhasbeenactivated,itwilltake
between12and24hourstohavetheautomatic
productionofice.Icewillbeproduceduntilthe
bowlisfull,oncethemaximumallowedlevelis
reached,productionwillstopautomatically.
The production is 10 cubes about every two
hours (for a total of 10 cycles over 24 hours).
The yield depends on the temperature set in the
freezer,theambienttemperatureandhowfrequently

In case of malfunction and/or wearing out of the
lightingsystem,therepairshouldbecarriedoutby
aqualied Servicetechnician of the manufacturer.
10.1. General directions
Yourapplianceisdesignedtoensureconstantaccu-
ratetemperaturesandappropriatehumiditylevelsin
allcompartments.Inaddition,thedoublerefrigera-
tionensuresthatfrozenfoodsandicedonotabsorb
theodouroffreshfoodsandthatthehumidityinthe
refrigerator does not freeze, resulting in frost build-
up. Nevertheless, to properly preserve all of your
foods,itisnotenoughtohaveanexcellentrefrigera-
tor.Itisalsonecessarytoknowtherulesofcorrect
coldfoodstorage.
Do bear in mindthatallfoods willinevitably change
their characteristics with the passage of time.
Thischangebeginslongbeforethefoodisconsumed,
since foods contain micro-organisms which multiply
andcancausedeterioration.
Thisprocessoccursmorerapidlyinthecase ofim-
proper handling and of incorrect storage tempera-
turesandhumiditylevels.
Wetherefore recommendedthat youfollow thein-
structionsprovidedbelowwhichwillallowyoutouse
yourrefrigerator/freezerinthesafestandmosteec-
tivemanner,tokeepyourfoodsinthebestpossible
wayforaslongaspossible.
BearinmindthattheCrisper-Frescoareaisthearea
forpreservingthemostdelicatefreshfoods,sinceit
ensuresconstantaveragetemperaturenearfreezing.
Periodicallycheckthatallfoodsareinaproperstate
ofpreservation.Itisusuallyquiteclearwhenafood
item has deteriorated, due to mould, an unsavoury
odourandanunpleasantaspect.
Nevertheless,therearecasesinwhichthesecondi-
tionsarenotsoevident.
Ifyoubelievethatafooditemhasbeenkeptforan
excessiveperiodoftimeandmayhavedeteriorated,
donotconsumethisitemoreventasteit,evenifitstill
seemstobewellpreserved, sincethe bacteriathat
causedeteriorationinfoodcanalsocausepoisoning
andillness.Whenindoubt,throwthefoodaway.
background
Whenahighlevelofhumidityispresent
eitherintheenvironmentorinthefoods
placedintheFrescodrawers,thebottom
oftheFrescocompartmentmightbecov-
eredwithsomewaterorice(ifthetem-
peratureissetbetween0°Cand-2°C).
Such condition is normal and it is due
tothehighhumiditylevelsoftheFresco
compartment; high humidity together
with low temperatures is what guarantees a
longerpreservationoffoods.

periodically.
A reminder for this periodic cleaning, to be per-

Iftheclimateisveryhumid,theformationofcon-
densationisnormal.Openingthedoorordraw-
