Electrical connections After the appliance has been transported, carefully place it vertically and wait at least 3 hours before connecting it to the electricity mains. Before inserting the plug into the electrical socket ensure the following: The appliance is earthed and the plug is compliant with the law. [. . . ] The SUPER COOL function is linked to the refrigerator compartment and when the latter is switched off, no action whatsoever will be possible on the former, other functions foresee an operation that can create conflicts (for example, when the HOLIDAY and SUPER FREEZE functions are enabled simultaneously), in this case a preset priority is taken into consideration in order to help you operate the appliance. Enabling/disabling the DEMO mode: To run a demonstration of the display operation while keeping the appliance turned off, just enable the DEMO mode. Enabling: - set the FREEZER OPERATION and APPLIANCE ON/ OFF Knob to 0ff; - keep the two buttons Select and Mode pressed for approximately 5 seconds, until you hear the buzzer and the two words OFF and OFF flash on the display; these words will flash for the entire duration the DEMO mode is enabled. Disabling: - set the FREEZER OPERATION and APPLIANCE ON/ OFF Knob to 0ff; - keep the two buttons Select and Mode pressed for approximately 5 seconds, until you hear the buzzer and the two words OFF and OFF on the display stop flashing. Holiday function To minimise energy usage when on holiday, it is not necessary to switch the appliance off. The appliance has a function which allows it to maintain the temperature of the refrigerator compartment at approximately 15°C (which can also be used to conserve make-up and beauty products). The freezer temperature must be set to the minimum value in order to preserve the food. Using the refrigerator to its full potential 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). Once you have bought your food, remove all external packaging made of paper/cardboard or other wrappers, which could introduce bacteria or dirt inside your refrigerator. Protect the food, (especially easily perishable items and those that have a strong smell), in order to avoid contact between them, thereby removing both the possibility of germ/bacteria contamination as well as the diffusion of strong odours inside the fridge. Store all food in such a way as to ensure air can circulate freely between different items. Keep the inside of your fridge clean, taking care not to use oxidiser or abrasive products. For the correct preservation of food, all easily perishable items (soft cheeses, raw fish, meat, etc. Just above the salad crisper where the temperature indicator is situated. Using the freezer to its full potential use the FREEZER OPERATION and APPLIANCE ON/ OFF Knob to adjust the temperature (see Description). Do not re-freeze food that is defrosting or that has already been defrosted. Fresh food that needs to be frozen must not come into contact with food that has already been defrosted. Fresh food must be stored in the top FREEZER and STORAGE compartment 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). [. . . ] Try to avoid keeping the door open for long periods or opening the door too frequently in order to conserve energy. Do not fill the appliance with too much food: cold air must circulate freely for food to be preserved properly. The internal temperature will increase and force the compressor to work harder and will consume more energy. A thick layer of ice makes cold transference to food products more difficult and results in increased energy consumption. [. . . ]
