[. . . ] Lighting type 2) To remove the light bulb, turn anticlockwise as shown in the figure. Wait for 5 minutes before reconnecting the appliance. 2 1 Lighting type 3) If the product has LED lighting which is in need of replacing, contact the After-Sales Service for assistance. LED lights last longer than normal bulbs, they illuminate better and are more environmentally friendly 22 WHEN THE APPLIANCE IS NOT IN USE Unplug the appliance from the mains, then empty, defrost (if necessary) and clean it. Leave the doors ajar, so that air can circulate inside the compartments. [. . . ] Making ice cubes Fill the ice cube tray (where provided) 2/3 full and place it in the freezer compartment. Never use sharp or pointed objects to remove the ice. Removing drawers (depending on model) Pull the drawers all the way out, lift them up a little and remove. To create more space, the freezer compartment can also be used as follows: A) If the freezer compartment base resembles figure A, remove the upper drawers and/or lids. The lower drawer should be left in position. Make sure that, once the food has been placed on the racks/shelves, the door closes properly. B) If the freezer compartment base resembles figure B, remove all drawers or lids. Make sure that, once the food has been placed on the racks/shelves, the door closes properly. Removing the lid (if present) Open the lid and remove the pin, as illustrated in figure C. A B C DEFROSTING THE FREEZER COMPARTMENT (depending on the model) No Frost models do not need defrosting. For other models, if frost forms in the freezer compartment, we recommend it is defrosted twice a year or whenever an excessive amount of frost has formed (3 mm thickness). It is perfectly normal for frost to form. The amount of frost which forms and the rate at which it builds up depends on room temperature and humidity, and on how often the door is opened. To defrost, unplug the appliance and remove all foodstuffs. Leave the door ajar to allow the frost to melt. For products with a freezer compartment below the refrigerator compartment, the defrost water drain pipe can be removed (see figure) and a recipient placed underneath. After defrosting, replace the drain pipe, making sure that no water is left in it. Clean inside the freezer compartment and dry carefully. Switch the appliance back on and place the food back inside. 24 MEAT & FISH BOX (depending on model) The Meat & Fish box was designed specially to keep foods fresher for longer, without altering nutritional values or original freshness. Do not store fruit or vegetables in this box, as the temperature may drop below 0°C, causing water contained in the food to freeze. Temperature Adjustment The temperature inside the Meat & Fish box is indicated by the position of the arm on the door of the box, and depends on the general temperature of the refrigerator compartment. We recommend setting the temperature of the refrigerator compartment between +2° and +6°. To work out if the temperature inside the Meat & Fish box is correct, refer to the pictures below: When the arm points to the left, you need to raise the temperature in the refrigerator compartment. When the arm is in the middle, the temperature is ok. When the arm points to the right, you need to lower the temperature in the refrigerator compartment. Important: when the function is activated and foods with a high water content are present, condensation may form on the shelves. In this case, disable the function temporarily. Removing the Meat & Fish compartment: To ensure correct operation of the product, adequate preservation of food and to optimise energy consumption, it is advisable not to remove the Meat & Fish compartment if the symbol (see Quick Guide) is not present on the control panel. [. . . ] In this case, temporarily deactivate the function. When placing small containers and food products on the top shelf of the "zero degrees" compartment, make sure they do not accidentally fall between the drawer and the back of the refrigerator compartment . Removing the "Zero Degrees" box: The "Zero Degrees" box can be removed to create more space inside the refrigerator. In this case proceed as follows: - to facilitate removal, we recommend emptying (and if necessary, removing) the two lower door trays - switch off the box - pull out the drawer and the white plastic shelf underneath the box. 26 Note: the upper shelf and the side supports cannot be removed. To restore "Zero Degrees" box operation, make sure you replace the white plastic shelf underneath the box before inserting the drawer and reactivating the function. [. . . ]
