4.4.
2 Indication for optimal use
- do not block the motor compartment air vents
- Arrange the material on the suitable provided shelves or drawers. Do not place the
products directly on the base of the chamber, against the walls, doors or fixed guards
of the unit
- make sure door is closed properly
- keep the defrost water drain outlet clear
- limit the frequency and duration of door openings; each time the door is opened, the
internal temperature will alter and there will be possible ice formations on the
evaporator
- perform regular maintenance (see Cleaning of the condenser Par. 9.3 )
- load gradually the material at ambient temperature to allow correct refrigeration
- The power supply must be as indicated in the technical data plate (+/- 10%)
- Appliances are designed and built to work at particular ambient temperatures (see the
climatic classes of reference Par. 13.1) and at a relative humidity of 60%. In ambient
working operations different from the specified, it will not be possible to achieve the
performances declared from the manufacturer.
4.4.3 Special warnings for Superartic and Plasma range
These appliances have been designed and built to store and maintain products at a
controlled temperature (the products should be stored when already frozen). The lowest
working temperature is -40°C and the rotation of the stored products cannot exceed 5% daily.

The innovative system fitted of stainless steel racks (standard fitted) allow the possibility of
having an internal fitting mixing shelves and drawers (mounted on telescopic slides) perfectly
interchangeable (For eventual orders of additional shelves or drawers, please refer always to
the model and serial number, see data plate paragraph 13.1).
SUPERARTIC and PLASMA SUPERARTIC models fit drawers mounted on extractible slides
(not telescopic).
Position the shelves support in the rack at the desired position inserting them into the special
slots (fig. 4) and turning them of 90° to block them. Once positioned the 4 supports at the
same height level, it is possible to install the shelf (fig.3).
In order to change the position of the drawers, extract the same, and once it is fully extracted,
unlock it from the slides through the unlocking devices (plastic lever black colour) positioned
on the side. The drawer is unlocked by pushing the right lever up and the left lever down at
the same time. After that it is possible to remove the telescopic slides by lifting the front part
(fig.2) of the slide up (to extract it from the rack in the front part) and pulling the slide
10
frontward, to extract the rear part. Repeat the same operations, but inverting the sequence to
reposition the slides and the drawers.

The wall-racks are even easily removable in order to allow a better cleaning of the interior of
the appliance. The racks mounted in the front part can be removed pushing them upward
(fig.5), while the ones mounted in the rear side can be removed by first, unscrewing safety
fixing screw (using a cross screwdriver) positioned in the top part (fig.6), and then pushing
against the internal wall the small plastic edge on the top part of the rack and simultaneously
pulling the rack itself upward (Fig 5).

the same height level, it will be possible to install the shelf (fig.3).
Some special models have C slides anti-tilt for the installation of the shelves or baskets. In
order to install correctly the shelves and baskets you should follow these instructions:
Place the shelves supports in the desired position; insert first the support into the wall-rack,
and then insert the edge of the side of the slide into the wall-rack mounted on the internal
side part at the corresponding height of the fixing in the rear.
Finally, having inserted a pair of slides at the same height, insert the shelf between them
(fig.7).

5.2 FUNCTIONING ECT-F CONTROL
Introduction
The refrigerator/freezer is equipped with a latest generation Electronic Controller, with a
back-lit LCD alphanumeric display, to display temperature and working operations with an
accuracy of 0,1°C. The controller gives maximum safety in case of alarms and fault
conditions, signalling critical conditions and recording every event in order to help the service
engineer to speed up the analysis and thus the fixing of any problems. Safety is at the
highest level with alarms for High and Low temperature, power-failure, door open as well as
auto-test. What is more, the ECT-F Control is equipped with an internal clock to catalogue all
the events.

5.2.1 SWITCHING ON*
Connecting the power cord of the equipment, the display will show STAND-BY, which
indicates the presence of mains power. Pressing one of the buttons for two seconds the
equipment will switch on. The display will show (in sequence) the welcome message, the
software name and the firmware version. For correct data storage, please check hour and
date (see Par. 5.2.3) the first time the equipment is turned on. If they are not right, modify
them (see Par. 5.2.10).

5.2.8 DEFROSTING
The equipment provided with the ECT-F Control has an advanced managing of the defrosting
cycles. The defrosting is operated only if necessary, thus drastically reducing the
number of cycles for a cost-effective operation. For this reason, a manual defrosting
has never to be operated.
If, for any reason, and ONLY after contacting Service, a manual defrosting is necessary,
follow this procedure:
Press the button and with or go to the menu DEFROST m4
Confirm using the button and the display will show the message:
<< Confirm Esc >>
18
Press to confirm the operation of manual defrosting.
Press the button to cancel (Esc) and go back to the main menu.
Confirming with the button the operation of manual defrosting will start. On the
display appears the message DEFROST followed by DRIPPING and RECOVERY
(phases of the defrosting). Wed like to draw your attention to the advanced defrosting
function that normally avoids the use of this procedure: if the manual defrosting
operation is confirmed, the Controller awaits the necessary condition to start the cycle. In this
phase, the display will continue to show every 4 seconds the operations in progress,
alternately to the message
WAITING DEFROST
If the conditions for a defrost are totally absent, the controller will display the message:
ACCESS DENIED
5.2.9 PASSWORD
Press the button and with or go to the menu PASSWORD m8
This menu will give you the possibility to set a new USER PASSWORD to protect
SWITCHING ON and SWITCHING OFF the controller, together with the TEMPERATURE
SETPOINT. The controller is factory set with password = 00, which allows the user to turn on,
off the equipment and to modify the setpoint freely.
Set the PASSWORD
Press the button and choose a number between 1 and 255 using and ,
to confirm using the button .
Modify the PASSWORD
Press the button : the actual password is now required. Use and
to insert the password (from 1 to 255) and confirm with the button . If correct,
it is possible to modify the old password. To finish the procedure, press again
If the PASSWORD is wrong, the display will show WRONG PASSWORD and the controller
will automatically go to the main menu.
If the PASSWORD is set to 00, the protection will be deactivated.
ATTENTION! If the USER PASSWORD is lost, there is no possibility to
retrieve it.

5.2.10 HOW TO SET THE CLOCK
Press the button and with or go to the menu CLOCK SET m10
Press then : the display will blink with actual date and time. Modify the values
with and , then press to confirm the value; continue until all the values
are set.
14 : 35 18 / 01 / 07
To ensure correct storage of the information, the ECT-F Control has an alarm to signal
eventual loss of date/hour, shown on the display with a blinking H: 00:00 m 00:00
message (this means that the clock battery is discharged see diagnostic Par. 15 and
must be replaced).
