They contain important information for safe use, for installation and for care of the appliance. Once the appliance has been installed, the power supply cable and the electrical socket must be easily accessible. [. . . ] When the “ECO” function is active, the appliance automatically adjusts the temperatures according to the conditions inside and outside the refrigerator, in order to minimise the amount of energy consumed; the activation of this function is signalled by the ECO LED on the keypad lighting up. 6 Chiller system No Frost 1 2 The No Frost system circulates cold air continuously to collect humidity and prevent ice and frost formation. - Place the food in the upper “FREEZER and STORAGE” compartment, making sure that it does not come into contact with any food that has already been frozen; press the SUPER FREEZE button (rapidfreezing; “SF” appears on the freezer display and the corresponding LED lights up) and close the door. The function deactivates automatically after 24 hours or when the inside of the compartment has reached the optimal temperature (the LED switches off). • 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. • 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). Ice3 ice tray The fact that they are situated on the top part of the freezer drawers ensures greater cleanliness: the ice no longer comes into contact with the food placed inside the freezer compartment; furthermore, the dripping of the water during filling is avoided (a lid to cover up the hole after filling with water is also provided). Check that the tray is ompletely empty and fill it with water through the opening provided. Excess water prevents the ice cubes from dispensing (if this happens, wait for the ice to melt and empty the tray). Turn the tray 90°: due to the connected compartments each mould fills with water (see diagram). When the ice has formed (minimum time approximately 8 hours) knock the tray against a hard surface and wet the outside so that the ice cubes come loose and take them out through the opening. MAX WATER LEVEL !This will help maintain the temperature inside the freezer, ensuring that foods are conserved for at least 9 -14 hours. to avoid blocking the air circulation inside the freezer compartment, it is advisable not to obstruct the ventilation holes with food or containers.
