Start-up and use
Starting the appliance
! After transportation of the appliance, carefully place it in
an upright position and wait at least 3 hours before
connecting it to the electricity mains, to make sure it
operates as it should.
 Clean the inside of the refrigerator well using warm
water and bicarbonate of soda before placing food
inside it.
 The appliance comes with a motor protection control
system which makes the compressor start
approximately 8 minutes after being switched on.
The compressor also starts each time the power
supply is cut off whether voluntarily or involuntarily
(blackout).
Freezer Compartment
When the product is switched on (the ON/OFF button is
pressed for mor e than two seconds) the fr eezer
compartment is set to its default value of -18°C . We
recommend that the SUPER FREEZE function is set (the
freezer status bar continues to display the set value) in
order to accelerate the cooling pr ocess of the
compartment; when the inside of the compartment has
reached its optimal temperatur e the function will be
deactivated and the food may be placed inside.
Refrigerator Compartment
When the appliance is switched on the refrigerator
compartment is set to its default value of +5°C . We
recommend that the SUPER COOL function is set (the
refrigerator status bar continues to display the set value)
in order to accelerate the cooling process of the
compartment. After a few hours it will be cool enough for
food to be placed inside.

each time one of the buttons is pressed the temperatur e

When the HOLIDAY function is active the temperature may
