When the layer of frost present in the freezer compartment 
exceeds 3mm, it is recommended to proceed with the defrosting 
as it increases energy consumption.
1) Press the ON / OFF button (3) for 1 second.
2) Disconnect the power cord.
3) Remove the frozen food and temporarily place them in a cool
place.
4) Leave the freezer door open to speed defrosting.
5) Collect the water on the bottom of the product.
6) Dry the freezer.
7) Reconnect the power cord and set the desired values.
8) Wait a moment and reintroduce the frozen foods.

WARNING:
Absolutely avoid the use of open flames or electrical appliances,
such as heaters, steam cleaners, candles, oil lamps and the like to
accelerate the defrosting phase.
Do not scrape with a knife or sharp object to remove frost or ice
present. These can damage the refrigerant circuit, the leakage of
which can cause a fire or damage your eyes.d.

Defrosting is automatic.

LED lighting

T he p roduct is equipped with 

LED 

lights, please contact the Technical

Assistance Service in case of replacement.
Compared to traditional light bulbs, the 

LEDs

 last longer and are

environmentally friendly.

NOTICE:

• Before each operation, remove the refrigerator plug from the 
power socket to prevent electric shocks.
• Do not pour water directly on the outside or inside of the 
refrigerator itself. This could lead to oxidation and damaging of 
the electrical insulation.

IMPORTANT:

To prevent cracking of the inside surfaces and plastic parts, follow 
these suggestions:

• Wipe away any food oils adhered to plastic components.
• The internal parts, gaskets and external parts can be cleaned with a cloth 
with warm water and baking soda or a neutral soap. Do not use solvents, 
ammonia, bleach or abrasives.
• Remove the accessories, for example, the shelves, from the refrigerator 
and from the door. Wash in hot soapy water. Rinse and thoroughly dry.
• The back of the appliance tends to accumulate dust which can be 
eliminated with the use of a vacuum cleaner, after having switched off and 
disconnected the appliance from the electrical outlet. This provides greater 
energy efficiency.

For better energy savings, we suggest:
• Installing the appliance away from heat sources and not exposed to 
direct sunlight and in a well ventilated room.
• Avoid putting hot food into the refrigerator to avoid increasing the 
internal temperature and therefore causing continuous functioning of 
the compressor.
• Do not excessively stuff foods so as to ensure proper air circulation.
• Defrost the appliance in case there is ice (see DEFROSTING) to 
facilitate the transfer of cold.
• ln case of absence of electrical energy, it is advisable to keep the 
refrigerator door closed.
• Open or keep the doors of the appliance open as little as possible
• Avoid adjusting the thermostat to temperatures too cold.
• Remove dust present on the rear of the appliance (see CLEANING).

During its operation, the refrigerator emits some absolutely normal noises, 
such as:

• HUMMING

, the compressor is running.

• RUMBLINGS, RUSTLINGS 

and 

HISSING

, the refrigerant is flowing

through the tubes.

• TICKS 

and 

CLICKS

, the operation shutdown of the compressor.

Small measures to r ed uce the vibration nois es:

• Containers touch each other: 

Avoid contact between containers and

glass recipients.

• Drawers, shelves, bins vibrate:

 Check the proper installation of internal 

accessories.

NOTE:
The refrigerant gas produces noise even when the compressor is off;
it is not a defect, it is normal.
If you hear a clicking sound inside the appliance, it is normal as due to
expansion of the various materials.

The doors of the appliance can be reversed so as to allow the opening to 
the right or left according to exigency.

NOTE:
• Inversion of the doors must be performed by qualified technical 
personnel.
• Inversion of the doors is not covered by the warranty.
