Chiller system

NO FROST
The No Frost system circulates cold air continuously to collect
humidity and prevent ice and frost formation. The system
maintains an optimal humidity level in the compartment,
preserving the original quality of the food, preventing the
food from sticking together and making defrosting a thing of
the past. Do not block the aeration cells by placing food or
containers near the refrigerating back panel.
! Close bottles and wrap food tightly.

Using the refrigerator to its full potential

• Use the REFRIGERATOR OPERATION button to adjust the
temperature (see Description).
• Press the SUPER COOL button (rapid cooling) to lower
the temperature quickly. For example, when you place a
large number of new food items inside a fridge the internal
temperature will rise slightly. The function quickly cools the
groceries by temporarily reducing the temperature until it
reaches the ideal level.
• Place only cold or lukewarm foods in the compartment, not
hot foods (see Precautions and tips).
• Remember that cooked foods do not last longer than raw
foods.
• Do not store liquids in open containers. They will increase
humidity in the refrigerator and cause condensation to form.

TEMPERATURE Indicator light
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: set a lower temperature 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.

Using the freezer to its full potential

• Use the FREEZER OPERATION button 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).

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
