'�Before connecting the appliance, clean thecompartments and accessories well with lukewarmwater and bicarbonate.

1. Insert the plug into the socket and ensure that theinternal light illuminates.

2. Turn the TEMPERATURE ADJUSTMENT knob to anaverage value. After a few hours you will be able toput food in the refrigerator.

������!�����.��������

The temperature inside the refrigerator compartmentautomatically adjusts itself according to the position ofthe thermostat knob. = warmest

= coldest

We recommend, however, a medium position.The cooling section of the refrigerator is located insidethe back wall of the refrigerator compartment forincreased space and improved aesthetics. Duringoperation, the back wall will be covered in frost or waterdroplets depending on whether the compressor isoperating or paused. Do not worry, the refrigerator isfunctioning normally.

It is recognizable due to the presence of the mechanismon the top part of the refrigerator compartment (seediagram). The Aircooler maintains a constant fridgetemperature to keep food fresher for longer and willquickly restore the temperature to the correct level, evenif the door is opened frequently: the blown air (A) iscooled when it comes into contact with the cold wall,whereas the hotter air (B) is sucked up (see diagram).

#�����Models without the Aircooler have the cooling section inthe internal back wall of the compartments. The wall willbe covered in frost or water droplets depending onwhether the compressor is operating or paused: bothcases are normal. If the TEMPERATURE ADJUSTMENTknob has been set on high values with large quantitiesof food and with a high ambient temperature, theappliance can operate continuously, resulting inexcessive frost formation and excessive energyconsumption: compensate for this by shifting the knobtowards lower values (defrosting will occurautomatically).In static appliances, the air circulates in a natural way:the colder air tends to move downwards as it is heavier.The food should be stored as follows:

Page 6: BAAN10UK Indesit Fridge Freezer

��1���!��������!������������������������

• Use the TEMPERATURE ADJUSTMENT knob to adjustthe temperature (see Description).

• Place only cold or lukewarm foods in thecompartment, not hot foods (see Precautions andtips).

• Remember that cooked foods do not last longer thanraw foods.

• Do not store liquids in open containers. They willincrease humidity in the refrigerator and causecondensation to form.

$% ��&%#�*�bin: to store food (such as cold meats)for a long time and also prevent odours from lingeringin the refrigerator.

Food hygiene

1. Once you have bought your food, remove all externalpackaging made of paper/cardboard or otherwrappers, which could introduce bacteria or dirtinside your refrigerator.

2. Protect the food, (especially easily perishable itemsand those that have a strong smell), in order to avoidcontact between them, thereby removing both thepossibility of germ/bacteria contamination as well asthe diffusion of strong odours inside the fridge.

3. Store all food in such a way as to ensure air cancirculate freely between different items.

4. Keep the inside of your fridge clean, taking care notto use oxidiser or abrasive products.

5. Remove all food past its expiry date from therefrigerator.

6. For the correct preservation of food, all easilyperishable items (soft cheeses, raw fish, meat, etc.)should be stored in the coldest zone of the fridgecompartment, i.e. just above the salad crisper wherethe temperature indicator is situated.

2. If the indicator light is completely black it means thatthe temperature is too high: adjust theREFRIGERATOR OPERATION knob to a higherposition (colder) and wait approximately 10 hours untilthe temperature has been stabilised.

3. Check the indicator light again: if necessary, readjustit following the initial process. If large quantities offood have been added or if the refrigerator door hasbeen opened frequently, it is normal for the indicatornot to show OK. Wait at least 10 hours beforeadjusting the REFRIGERATOR OPERATION knob to ahigher setting.

• Do not re-freeze food that is defrosting or that hasalready been defrosted. These foods must be cookedand eaten (within 24 hours).

• Fresh food that needs to be frozen must not come intocontact with food that has already been defrosted.Fresh food must be stored in the top FREEZER andSTORAGE compartment where the temperature dropsbelow -18°C and guarantees rapid freezing.

• Do not place glass bottles which contain liquids, andwhich are corked or hermetically sealed in the freezerbecause they could break.

• The maximum quantity of food that may be frozen dailyis indicated on the plate containing the technicalproperties located on the bottom left side of therefrigerator compartment (for example: Kg/24h: 4)

'�Do not open the door during freezing.

'�If there is a power cut or malfunction, do not open thefreezer door. This will help maintain the temperatureinside the freezer, ensuring that foods are conserved forat least 9 -14 hours.

'�If the room temperature drops below 14°C for anextended period of time, the ideal temperature will notbe reached in the freezer compartment and foodpreservation will be reduced.

Ice3 ice trayThe fact that they are situated on the top part of the freezerdrawers ensures greater cleanliness: the ice no longer comesinto contact with the food placed inside the freezercompartment; furthermore, the dripping of the water duringfilling is avoided (a lid to cover up the hole after filling withwater is also provided).

1. Pull out the tray by pushing it up.Check that the tray is ompletely empty and fill it withwater through the opening provided.

2. Take care not to exceed the level indicated (MAXWATER LEVEL). Excess water prevents the ice cubesfrom dispensing (if this happens, wait for the ice to meltand empty the tray).

3. Turn the tray 90°: due to the connected compartmentseach mould fills with water (see diagram).

4. Close the opening with the lid provided and put thetray back, placing the top part in the correspondinghousing and allowing it to drop in again.

5. When the ice has formed (minimum timeapproximately 8 hours) knock the tray against a hardsurface and wet the outside so that the ice cubes comeloose and take them out through the opening.
