[. . . ] Should the power failure last more than 12 hours, remove all food from the product and store it in a suitable appliance. APPLIANCE MAINTENANCE AND CLEANING Periodically clean the appliance with a new cloth and a solution of lukewarm water and neutral detergent specific for cleaning the inside of the refrigerator. Clean the condenser using a vacuum cleaner, after removing the front plinth (see Installation manual). The buttons and control panel display (in some models, located on the freezer door) must not be cleaned with alcohol or alcohol-derived substances, but with a dry cloth. Replacing the bulbs Important: • Always disconnect the refrigerator from the power supply before replacing any light bulbs. [. . . ] If there is condensation in the ice/water dispenser area or on the door, reactivate the anti-condensation devices (switch in position ON). 10 USING THE AUTOMATIC ICE MAKER (where provided) After switching on the refrigerator, it usually takes overnight for the first ice cubes to form. When selecting crushed ice (on some models only - see the Quick Start Guide), the cubes are crushed just before being dispensed, therefore the crushed ice may come out with a slight delay. Noise from the ice crusher is normal, and pieces of ice may vary in size. When changing from crushed ice to ice cubes, a small amount of crushed ice may come out together with the first cubes. The quantity and size of the ice cubes depend on the mains water pressure. Ice cubes production can be increased by decreasing the freezer compartment temperature setting. ONLY FOR MODELS FITTED WITH ICE DRAWER Normal ice production is 7 to 8 batches of ice cubes over a 24 hour period. Large amounts of ice cubes should be taken directly from the bucket, and not from the dispenser. It is recommended that the drawer is closed after completing the operation. ONLY FOR MODELS FITTED WITH ICE DISPENSER Normal ice production is 12 to 14 batches of ice cubes over a 24 hour period. To remove and refit the ice bucket Insert your fingers in the opening at the bottom of the container, pull the lever and lift and extract the container (see figure 1). For some models, to remove the container, insert your fingers in the opening at the bottom of the container and place your thumb on the release button (see figure 2); holding the base of the bucket with both hands, press the release button and lift the bucket up and out. To replace the ice container in its place, place it on its support attached to the inner door and lower in position. Note: Large amounts of ice cubes should be taken directly from the bucket, and not from the dispenser. figure 1 figure 2 STORING, FREEZING AND THAWING FOOD It is important to wrap food so that no water, moisture, or vapour may penetrate; this avoids the transfer of odours and flavours throughout the refrigerator and allows better storage of frozen food. NOTE: Never place warm food in the freezer. Cooling hot foods before freezing saves energy and prolongs the life of the appliance. “MULTIFLOW” AIR SYSTEM (where provided) "MULTIFLOW" is a ventilated airflow system thanks to which the internal temperature is to all intents and purposes uniform. Food can be arranged on any shelf paying attention not to obstruct the air vents, so that air can circulate. 11 GUIDE TO INTERNAL COMPONENTS FRESH CONTROL COMPARTMENT (where provided) The Fresh Control compartment is a container with a tilting movement that facilitates the introduction and removal of food. Opening, removal and replacing of the Fresh Control compartment. Open the Fresh Control compartment by pressing one of the two buttons at the top (1), while at the same time pulling the compartment as far as it will go. [. . . ] With the cartridge cap in the vertical position, insert the new filter cartridge into the base grille until it stops. Rotate the cartridge cap clockwise to a horizontal position. RUN WATER THROUGH THE DISPENSER UNTIL THE WATER RUNS CLEAR (about 9-14 litres or 6-7 minutes). This will clean the system and clear air from the lines. [. . . ]
