FREEZING
• Foods must be fresh.
• Freeze small amounts of food at a time in order to freeze quickly.
Never exceed the maximum amount indicated on the rating label.
• During freezing, do not open the freezer door.
• Food must be sealed, airtight.
• Separate food to be frozen by those already frozen.
• Label bags or containers to keep an inventory of frozen foods.
• Once defrosted, do not ever refreeze foods and consume them
promptly.
NOTE:
•PRODUCTS WITHOUT DISPLAY
Normally it is not necessary to intervene with the thermostat knob.
Only in case you find excessive cooling of the products contained
in the refrigerator compartment, gently turning the thermostat knob
toward 0 is recommended (Fig. 7).
On completion of freezing, return the knob to the usual position.
The rating plate states the maximum quantity of foods that can be frozen, (see fi gure 8).
(Figure 8)
N.B. Here you will find your appliance rating plate: it includes all the data to be transmitted to the Customer Service should a fault arise.
Important: if your ambient temperature is high, the appliance may operate continuously, thus building up excessive frost on
the inner wall of the fridge. In this case, turn the fridge knob to a warmer setting (1-2).
The most energy-saving configuration requires drawers, food box and shelves to be positioned in the product, please refer
to the above pictures

DEFROSTING
Defrosting the refrigerator compartment
During normal functioning, the refrigerator is automatically defrosted.
There is no need to dry the drops of water present on the rear wall or to
eliminate the frost (depending on functioning).
The water is conveyed to the rear part through the drain hole found there
and the heat of the compressor causes it to evaporate.
• Keep the drainage pipe (Fig. 8) clean in the refrigerator compartment to
keep it free of water.
Defrosting of the fridge compartment occurs automatically in this
product.
We recommend you defrost the freezer area when the layer of frost is
more than 3 mm thick.
A small amount of frost or drops of water on the back of the fridge
compartment when the fridge is working is normal.
Make sure the water outlet is always clean and make sure foods do not
touch the back or sides of the fridge compartment.
