Setting the temperature

The temperature inside the refrigerator and freezer
is regulated by a single thermostat with 6 temperature
positions and one «OFF» ( O ) position.
Position 1 = minimum cold
Position 6 = maximum cold
Turn the thermostat dial to the required position; the
intermediate position is usually the most suitable.
The thermostat setting can vary as the temperature
inside the refrigeration compartment depends on the
following factors:
– room temperature
– how often the door is opened
– how much food is stored
– position of the appliance
Important
If the refrigerator is not defrosting correctly, it is
possible that because a very low temperature has been
selected and the motor is working continuously,
which prevents the defrost cycle from operating.
To ensure correct defrosting, a lower number should be
selected on the thermostat and you should notice that
the motor cuts out from time to time, which is correct.
If you wish to return to a lower temperature, turn the
thermostat to a higher number, however you should turn the
setting lower occasionally to allow automatic defrosting.

Ambient temperature switch

With a room temperature below +16 C the refrigerator
compartment may not function correctly. If the room
temperature is lower than +16 C it will be necessary to
depress switch (A). The relevant pilot light comes on.
When freezing fresh food depress the ambient
temperature switch three hours before loading the
food without modifying the thermostat setting.

OPERATION

The freezer compartment

The four-star freezer compartment is suitable for
storage of commercially frozen food and for freezing
fresh foods.

Freezing fresh food

It is not necessary to adjust the thermostat setting
when freezing fresh food.
In any 24 hours you can freeze up to 3,5 kg.
Place food to be frozen in the bottom drawer of the
freezer as this is the coldest part.
Caution
In the event of a power cut the food in the freezer will
not be affected if the power cut is short and if the
freezer is full. Do not open the door. Should the food
begin to thaw, it must be consumed quickly and must
not be re-frozen.

Thawing

Food can be thawed in a number of ways, depending
on the type of food and the size of the packs.
Meat, fish and fruit should be thawed in the
refrigerator compartment and small pieces of meat or
poultry can even be cooked while still frozen, but you
must ensure that it is thoroughly cooked through.
Vegetables should be directly immersed in boiling
water; ready-cooked dishes can be placed directly in
the oven in their aluminium wrapping.
A microwave oven is particularly suitable for thawing
any type of frozen or deep-frozen food: follow the
oven instructions, particularly regarding the
placement of aluminium wrapping in the oven.

Making ice cubes

The appliance is provided with two plastic ice cube
trays.
Fill the trays 3/4 full to allow the ice to expand and
place them in one of the freezer drawers.
To turn out the ice cubes simply give the tray a slight
twist to release the cubes.
