Start-up and use

Starting the appliance

GB
(see Installation).
Before connecting the appliance, clean the
compartments and accessories well with lukewarm
water and bicarbonate.
1. Insert the plug into the socket and ensure that the
internal light illuminates.
2. Turn the TEMPERATURE ADJUSTMENT knob to an
average value. After a few hours you will be able to
put food in the refrigerator.

Using the refrigerator to its full potential

The temperature inside the refrigerator compartment
automatically adjusts itself according to the position of
the thermostat knob.
= warmest = coldest
We recommend, however, a medium position.
The cooling section of the refrigerator is located inside
the back wall of the refrigerator compartment for
increased space and improved aesthetics. During
operation, the back wall will be covered in frost or water
droplets depending on whether the compressor is
operating or paused. Do not worry, the refrigerator is
functioning normally.
It is recognizable due to the presence of the mechanism on
the top part of the refrigerator compartment (see diagram).

Pure Wind maximises air circulation, improving the
efficiency of the evaporator and helping to achieve the
optimal temperature inside the refrigerator as quickly as
possible each time it has been opened. The blown air (A)
is cooled when it comes into contact with the cold wall,
whereas the hotter air (B) is sucked up (see diagram).
The Pure Wind Plus products are also equipped with a
filter which, thanks to the inclusion of silver ions, makes
it possible to reduce bacteria by 70% and to eliminate
odours inside the refrigerator unit, thereby guaranteeing
improved food storage.
If the TEMPERATURE ADJUSTMENT knob has been set
on high values with large quantities of food and with a

high ambient temperature, the appliance can operate
continuously, resulting in excessive frost formation and
excessive energy consumption: compensate for this by
shifting the knob towards lower values (defrosting will
occur automatically).
Due to the special guides the
1
shelves are removable and the
height is adjustable (see
2
diagram), allowing easy storage
of large containers and food.
Height can be adjusted without
complete removal of the shelf.
• 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.

Using the freezer to its full potential

• Do not re-freeze food that is defrosting or that has
already been defrosted. These foods must be cooked
and eaten (within 24 hours).
• Fresh food that needs to be frozen must not come into
contact with food that has already been defrosted.
Fresh food must be stored above the grill in the
freezer compartment and if possible be in direct
contact with the walls (side and rear), where the
temperature drops below -18°C and guarantees rapid
freezing.
• 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
properties located on the bottom left side of the
refrigerator compartment (for example: Kg/24h: 4)
Do not open the door during freezing.
If there is a power cut or malfunction, do not open the
freezer door. This will help maintain the temperature
inside the freezer, ensuring that foods are conserved for
at least 9 -14 hours.
If the room temperature drops below 14°C for an
extended period of time, the ideal temperature will not
be reached in the freezer compartment and food
preservation will be reduced.
