[. . . ] Pass them on to possible new owners of the appliance. The compressor and condenser give off heat and require good ventilation to operate correctly and save energy. Leave a space of at least 10 cm between the top part of the appliance and any furniture above it, and at least 5 cm between the sides and any furniture/side walls. Ensure the appliance is away from any sources of heat (direct sunlight, electric stove, etc. [. . . ] Once the refrigerator has reached the optimal temperature, the indicator light goes out and you can begin food storage. Using the refrigerator to its full potential • Use the REFRIGERATOR OPERATION knob to adjust the temperature (see Description). • Press the SUPER COOL button (rapid cooling) to lower the temperature quickly. For example, when you place a large number of new food items inside a fridge the internal temperature will rise slightly. The function quickly cools the groceries by temporarily reducing the temperature until it reaches the ideal level. • Place only cold or lukewarm foods in the compartment, not hot foods (see Precautions and tips). • Remember that cooked foods do not last longer than raw foods. Do not store liquids in open containers. They will increase humidity in the refrigerator and cause condensation to form. Once you have bought your food, remove all external packaging made of paper/cardboard or other wrappers, which could introduce bacteria or dirt inside your refrigerator. Protect the food, (especially easily perishable items and those that have a strong smell), in order to avoid contact between them, thereby removing both the possibility of germ/bacteria contamination as well as the diffusion of strong odours inside the fridge. If this procedure is not followed, the alarm may sound. This alarm does not indicate a malfunction. To restore normal operation, it is sufficient to set the FREEZER OPERATION knob on the desired value. To disconnect the appliance, follow point 1 and 2. Replacing the l Odour filter The filter should be replaced after approximately 6-8 months from when it is activated. This period may vary depending on the type of food that is stored. For information on where a replacement filter may be purchased, contact Assistance (see Assistance). To replace the filter, follow the instructions (see diagrams A and B).
