[. . . ] • The socket can withstand the maximum power of the appliance, which is indicated on the data plate located on the bottom left side of the fridge (e. • The voltage must be in the range between the values indicated on the data plate located on the bottom left side (e. If the socket is incompatible with the plug, ask an authorised technician to replace it (see Assistance). Once the appliance has been installed, the power supply cable and the electrical socket must be easily accessible. [. . . ] GB Setting the temperature The temperature inside the refrigerator compartment automatically adjusts itself according to the position of the thermostat knob. min= warmest max = coldest We recommend , however , a medium position. Chiller system No Frost It is recognisable by aeration cells located on the back walls of the compartments. The No Frost system circulates cold air continuously to collect humidity and prevent ice and frost formation. The system maintains an optimal humidity level in the compartment, preserving the original quality of the food, preventing the food from sticking together and making defrosting a thing of the past. Do not block the aeration cells by placing food or containers in direct contact with the refrigerating back panel. 15 GB Using the freezer to its full potential The temperature inside the freezer compartment automatically adjusts itself according to the position of the thermostat knob. 1 = warmest max = coldest We recommend , however , a medium position. ICE CARE 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). Close the opening with the lid provided and put the tray back, placing the top part in the corresponding housing and allowing it to drop in again. 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. • 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. To avoid blocking the air circulation inside the freezer compartment, it is advisable not to obstruct the ventilation holes with food or containers. • 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) MAX WATER LEVEL WATER LEVEL MAX !This will help maintain the temperature inside the freezer, ensuring that foods are conserved for at least 9 -14 hours. 16 Maintenance and care Switching the appliance off During cleaning and maintenance it is necessary to disconnect the appliance from the electricity supply: Replacing the light bulb To replace the light bulb in the refrigerator compartment, pull out the plug from the electrical socket. [. . . ] • The appliance has been installed between cabinets that vibrate and make noise. • The internal refrigerant makes a slight noise even when the compressor is off. • These raised temperatures are necessary in order to avoid the formation of condensation on certain parts of the product. Some of the external parts of the refrigerator become hot 19 Assistance GB 195068200. [. . . ]
