Installation  
! Before operating your new appliance, please read  
these operating instructions carefully. They contain  
important information for safe use, installation and care  
of the appliance.  
! The cable must not be bent or compressed.  
GB  
! The cable must be checked regularly and replaced by  
authorised technicians only (see Assistance).  
! The manufacturer declines any liability should  
these safety measures not be observed.

Connection of the water supply  
To carry this out, use the kit provided which contains all the  
necessary elements for connection to the water supply.  
To improve the performance of the Aqua Care, we  
recommend that you fit a tap with a filter on the pipe for  
the connection to the water system: in this way it will be  
possible to manually interrupt the water supply during  
long periods in which Aqua Care is not used.  
! The water pressure inside the water system must be  
between 0.8 bar and 8 bar.  
Positioning and connection  
Positioning  
1. Place the appliance in a well-ventilated humidity-free  
room.  
2. Do not obstruct the rear fan grills. The compressor  
and condenser give off heat and require good ventilation  
to operate correctly and save energy.

Start-up and use  
Starting the appliance  
• 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.  
GB  
! Before starting the appliance, follow the installation  
instructions (see Installation).  
! Before connecting the appliance, clean the  
compartments and accessories well with lukewarm water  
and bicarbonate.  
! The appliance comes with a motor protection control  
system which makes the compressor start approximately  
8 minutes after being switched on. The compressor also  
starts each time the power supply is cut off whether  
voluntarily or involuntarily (blackout).  
• Do not store liquids in open containers. They will  
increase humidity in the refrigerator and cause  
condensation to form.  
Using the freezer to its full potential  
• Use the FREEZER OPERATION knob to adjust the  
temperature (see Description).  
1. Insert the plug into the socket and ensure that the green  
POWER indicator light illuminates (the FREEZER  
COMPARTMENT knob must not be on ).  
2. Turn the REFRIGERATOR OPERATION knob to an  
average value. After a few hours you will be able to put  
food in the refrigerator.  
3. Turn the FREEZER OPERATION knob to an average value  
and press the SUPER FREEZE button (rapid freezing): the  
SUPER FREEZE indicator light will illuminate.  
Once the refrigerator has reached the optimal  
temperature, the indicator light goes out and you can  
begin food storage.  
• Do not re-freeze food that is defrosting or that has  
already been defrosted. These foods must be cooked  
and eaten (within 24 hours).  
• Fresh food that needs to be frozen must not come into  
contact with food that has already been defrosted.  
Fresh food must be packed in the top FREEZER and  
STORAGE compartment where the temperature drops  
below -18°C and guarantees rapid freezing.  
• Do not place glass bottles which contain liquids, and  
which are corked or hermetically sealed in the freezer  
because they could break.  
Chiller system  
• 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:  
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  
To freeze (if the freezer is already operating):  
- for small quantities which are less than those  
indicated on the data plate, press the rapid freezing  
SUPER FREEZE button (corresponding yellow  
indicator light illuminates), insert the food and close  
the door. The function is disabled automatically after  
24 hours or when optimal temperatures have been  
reached (indicator light goes out);  
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. Close bottles and wrap food tightly.  
- for large quantities which are greater than the  
maximum load indicated on the data plate, hold down  
the rapid freezing SUPER FREEZE button until the  
corresponding indicator light begins to flash. After 24  
hours the indicator light stops flashing and remains on  
constantly. Place the food inside the freezer and close  
the door. After another 24 hours, the function will be  
disabled automatically (indicator light goes out).  
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.

Avoiding mould and unpleasant odours  
2. 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).  
• The appliance is manufactured with hygienic materials  
which are odour free. In order to maintain an odour  
free refrigerator and to prevent the formation of stains,  
food must always be covered or sealed properly.  
• If you want to switch the appliance off for an extended  
period of time, clean the inside and leave the doors  
open.  
Replacing the light bulb  
Holiday function  
To replace the light bulb in the refrigerator compartment,  
pull out the plug from the electrical socket. Follow the  
instructions below which may vary according to the model  
of the appliance.  
To minimise energy usage when on holiday, it is not  
necessary to switch the appliance off. The appliance has  
a function which allows it to maintain the temperature of  
the refrigerator compartment at approximately 15°C  
(which can also be used to conserve make-up and  
beauty products). The freezer temperature must be set to  
the minimum value (1) in order to preserve the food. To  
enable the function:  
Access the light bulb as shown  
(see diagram) and replace it with  
a similar light bulb, the power of  
which should not exceed 10 W.

Precautions and tips  
! The appliance was designed and manufactured in  
compliance with international safety standards. The  
following warnings are provided for safety reasons and  
must be read carefully.  
Disposal  
GB  
• Observe local environmental standards when  
disposing packaging material for recycling purposes.  
• The European Directive 2002/96/EC on Waste  
Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE), requires  
that old household electrical appliances must not be  
disposed of in the normal unsorted municipal waste  
stream. Old appliances must be collected separately  
in order to optimise the recovery and recycling of the  
materials they contain and reduce the impact on  
human health and the environment. The crossed out  
“wheeled bin” symbol on the product reminds you of  
your obligation, that when you dispose of the  
appliance it must be separately collected.  
This appliance complies with the following  
Community Directives:  
- 73/23/EEC of 19/02/73 (Low Voltage) and  
subsequent amendments;  
-89/336/EEC of 03.05.89 (Electromagnetic  
Compatibility) and subsequent amendments;  
- 2002/96/CE.  
General safety  
Consumers should contact their local authority or  
retailer for information concerning the correct disposal  
of their old appliance.  
• The appliance was designed for domestic use inside  
the home and is not intended for commercial or  
industrial use.  
• The appliance must be used to store and freeze food  
products by adults only and according to the  
instructions in this manual.  
Respecting and conserving the  
environment  
• The appliance must not be installed outdoors, even in  
covered areas. It is extremely dangerous to leave the  
appliance exposed to rain and storms.  
• Install the appliance in a fresh and well-ventilated  
room. Ensure that it is protected from direct sunlight  
and do not place it near heat sources.  
• Do not touch the appliance with bare feet or with wet or  
moist hands and feet.  
• Try to avoid keeping the door open for long periods or  
opening the door too frequently in order to conserve  
energy.  
• Do not touch the internal cooling elements: this could  
cause skin abrasions or frost/freezer burns.  
• When unplugging the appliance always pull the plug  
from the mains socket, do not pull on the cable.  
• Do not fill the appliance with too much food:  
cold air must circulate freely for food to be preserved  
properly. If circulation is impeded, the compressor will  
work continuously.  
• Before cleaning and maintenance, always switch off  
the appliance and disconnect it from the electrical  
supply. It is not sufficient to set the temperature  
adjustment knobs on (appliance off) to eliminate all  
electrical contact.  
• Do not place hot food directly into the refrigerator. The  
internal temperature will increase and force the  
compressor to work harder and will consume more  
energy.  
• In the case of a malfunction, under no circumstances  
should you attempt to repair the appliance yourself.  
Repairs carried out by inexperienced persons may  
cause injury or further malfunctioning of the appliance.  
• Defrost the appliance if ice forms (see Maintenance).  
A thick layer of ice makes cold transference to food  
products more difficult and results in increased  
energy consumption.  
• Do not use devices or tools other than the special  
scraper provided inside the compartments.  
• Regularly check the door seals and wipe clean to  
ensure they are free of debris and to prevent cold air  
from escaping (see Maintenance).  
• Do not put ice cubes taken directly from the freezer  
into your mouth.  
• Do not allow children to tamper with the controls or  
play with the appliance. Under no circumstance should  
they be allowed to sit on the bins or to hang from the  
door.  
• Keep packaging material out of the reach of children! It  
can become a choking or suffocation hazard.

To minimise risk of injury to children, remove the door, plug and cut mains cable off flush with the  
appliance. Dispose of these parts separately to ensure that the appliance can no longer be plugged  
into a mains socket, and the door cannot be locked shut.
