Functions
Fan
The fan is pre-set to ON. To turn the fan on/off, press the light button (as shown in figure below at step 2) and button C simultaneously (as shown in figure 3). The light will flash once if the fan is OFF, or three times if the fan is ON. If the ambient temperature exceeds 27°C, or if drops of water appear on the glass shelves, it is essential to have the fan on to ensure proper food preservation. Deactivating the fan optimizes energy consumption.
Stand-by
Press button C for 3 seconds to deactivate the appliance (control panel and lights turn off). Press the button briefly again to reactivate the appliance.
Note: This operation does not disconnect the appliance from the power supply.
Note: Ambient temperature, frequency of door opening, and appliance placement can affect the internal temperature of the compartments. These factors should be considered when setting the thermostat.
Fast Cooling Function (Fast Cooling)
To quickly cool the refrigerator compartment, or 6 hours before adding a large quantity of food to the freezer, activate the "Fast Cooling" function. Press button C repeatedly until the 3 icons flash green and remain solid. The function automatically turns off after 30 hours, returning the temperature to the previous setting.
To avoid food waste, refer to the recommended setting (Intermediate) and storage times in the user manual.
Installation
Warning: The appliance must be handled and installed by two or more persons to avoid injury. Use protective gloves to unpack and install to prevent cuts.
Installation, including water supply (if any), electrical connections, and repairs, must be carried out by a qualified technician. Do not repair or replace any part unless specified in the user manual. Keep children away from the installation site. After unpacking, ensure the appliance is not damaged during transport. Contact the dealer or Aftersales Service for any issues. Store packaging waste (plastic, styrofoam) out of reach of children to prevent suffocation.
Warning: Disconnect the appliance from the power supply before any installation operation to prevent electric shock. Ensure the power cable is not damaged during installation to prevent fire or electric shock. Only activate the appliance after installation is complete.
Be careful not to damage floors (e.g., parquet) when moving the appliance. Install on a floor or support strong enough for its weight and suitable for its size and use. Ensure the appliance is not near a heat source. Adjust the four feet so they are stable and resting on the floor, ensuring the appliance is perfectly level using a spirit level. Wait at least two hours before switching on to ensure the refrigerant circuit is fully efficient.
Warning: When positioning, ensure the supply cord is not trapped or damaged.
Warning: For stability, positioning and fixing must follow manufacturer instructions. Do not place the refrigerator such that gas stove hoses, metal gas or water pipes, or electrical wires contact the refrigerator's back wall (condenser coil).
To ensure adequate ventilation, leave space on both sides and above the appliance. Maintain a 50 mm distance between the rear of the appliance and the wall to avoid contact with hot surfaces. Reducing this space will increase energy consumption. Remove the power cord from the condenser hook during installation before connecting to power supply.
When contacting the Service Provider, state the codes from the product's identification plate. Model information can be retrieved using the QR-Code on the energy label, which also includes the model identifier for consulting the https://eprel.ec.europa.eu database portal.
