USE

Cleaning the interior

Before using the appliance for the first time, wash the

interior and all internal accessories with lukewarm

water and some neutral soap so as to remove the

typical smell of a brand-new product, then dry

thoroughly.

Do not use detergents or abrasive powders,

as these will damage the finish.

Starting-up

Insert the plug into the wall socket.

Open the door and turn the thermostat control knob,

to be found on the upper right hand side of the inner

compartment, clockwise beyond position «O» (OFF)

to start the appliance.

Temperature control

Temperature adjustment is obtained by turning the

thermostat knob clockwise until its pointer coincides

with the required setting.

A medium setting is generally the most suitable.

The minimum setting (least cold) is represented by

the lowest number and the maximum setting (coldest)

by the highest number. In any case, bear in mind that

the temperature can be either increased (warmer) by

turning the thermostat knob anticlockwise or

decreased (colder) by turning it clockwise.

The thermostat knob setting should be adjusted

depending on the inner temperature of the

refrigerator, which, in turn, depends on a number of

factors, such as: the ambient temperature, the

number of times the door is opened, the quantity of

food stored and the location of the appliance.

Warning

If the ambient temperature is high, the

thermostat knob is on the coldest setting

(higher numbers) and the appliance is fully

loaded, the compressor may run

continuously, causing frost or ice to form

on the evaporator. If this happens, turn the

knob to a warmer setting (lower numbers)

to allow automatic defrosting and so a

saving in electricity consumption.

Fresh food refrigeration

The refrigerator compartment is suitable for cooling

drinks and for normal food storing.

To obtain the best performance, do not store warm

food or evaporating liquids in the refrigerator and do

cover or wrap up the food, particularly if it has a

strong smell.

Freezing fresh food

The 4-star compartment (

long term storage of commercially frozen food and for

freezing fresh food.

To freeze fresh foods it is not necessary to change

the setting of the thermostat knob.

However, for a quicker freezing operation, turn the

thermostat knob to the coldest setting; but remember

that, in this condition, the refrigerator compartment

temperature might drop below 0°C. If this occurs

reset thermostat knob to a warmer setting.

Storage of frozen food

When first starting-up or after a period out of use,

before putting the products in the compartment let the

appliance run for at least two hours on the coldest

setting, then turn the thermostat knob to the normal

operating position.

Important

If there is a power failure when food is in

the freezer, do not open the door of the

freezer compartment. The frozen food will

not be affected if the power cut is of short

duration (up to 12 hours) and the freezer

compartment is full, otherwise, it is

recommended that the food should be used

within a short time (a temperature increase

of the frozen food shortens its safe storage

period).

Thawing

Deep-frozen or frozen food, prior to being used, can

be thawed in the refrigerator compartment or at room

temperature, depending on the time available for this

operation.

Small pieces may even be cooked still frozen, directly

from the freezer: in this case, cooking will take longer.
