Operation
Insert the plug into the wall socket.
Open the refrigerator door and turn the
thermostat knob, clockwise, beyond the «O»
(STOP) position.
The appliance will start to operate.

Temperature regulation

The temperature is automatically regulated and
can be increased to achieve a higher
temperature (warmer) by rotating the thermostat
knob toward lower settings or reduced (colder)
rotating the knob towards higher settings.
However, the exact setting should be chosen
keeping in mind that the temperature inside the
refrigerator depends on:
room temperature;
how often the door is opened;
the quantity of food stored;
location of appliance.
A medium setting is generally the most
suitable.
To stop operation, simply turn the thermostat
knob to position «O».
Important
If the ambient temperature is high or the
appliance is fully loaded, and the appliance is
set to the lowest temperatures, it may run
continuously causing frost to form on the
rear wall. In this case the dial must be set to a
higher temperature to allow automatic
defrosting and therefore reduced energy
consumption.

Freezing fresh food

The 4-star compartment
long term storage of commercially frozen food,
and for freezing fresh food. Do not exceed the
storage times shown by the manufacturer on the
commercially frozen food packets.Under normal
circumstances, to freeze fresh foods it is not
necessary to change the setting of the
thermostat knob with respect to the normal
running position. Depress the ambient switch at
least 3 hours before loading food to be frozen.
However, for a quicker freezing operation, turn
the thermostat knob to the coldest setting; but
remember that, in this condition, the refrigerating
compartment temperature might drop below 0°C.
If this occurs reset thermostat knob to a warmer
setting. To help you make the most of the
freezing process, here are some important hints:

USE

is suitable for
Place the food to be frozen in the top basket of
the freezing compartment as this is the coldest
part.
The maximum quantity of food which can be
frozen in 24 hrs is shown on the rating plate.
Only freeze top quality, fresh and thoroughly
cleaned foodstuffs.
Prepare the fresh food in small portions to
enable it to be rapidly and completely frozen
and to make it possible subsequently to thaw
only the quantity required at the time.
Wrap up the food in aluminium foil or polythene
and make sure that the packages are airtight.
It is advisable to show on the single food packet
or on the write-on produce strips to be found on
the front part of the storage baskets the
freezing-in date to enable you to keep date of
the storage time. On the rear of the door you
will find a list of foods followed by a number.
These numbers indicate the maximum period of
time for which the food in question may be
conserved (in months).
Do not allow fresh, unfrozen food to touch food
which is already frozen, thus avoiding a rise in
temperature of the latter.
Important
Do not put carbonated liquids (fizzy drinks, etc.)
in the freezing compartment as they may burst.
Water ices, if consumed immediately after
removal from the freezing compartment, can
possibly cause the skin to be freeze burnt.
Remember that, once thawed, frozen food
deteriorates rapidly.

Storage of frozen food

To obtain the best performance from this
appliance, we strongly recommend that you
make sure that the commercially frozen
foodstuffs were adequately stored by the retailer
and, furthermore, be sure that these frozen
foodstuffs are transferred from the foodstore to
the consumer in the shortest possible time (a
temperature increase of the frozen food could
shorten its storage period). It is also advisable
not to exceed the storage period indicated by
the producer of the food. Finally, do not open
the door frequently or leave it open longer than
is absolutely necessary. If there is a power
failure when food is in the freezer, do not open
the door of the freezing compartment. The
frozen food will not be affected if the power cut
is of short duration (a temperature increase of
the frozen food could shorten its safe storage
period), otherwise, it is recommended that the
food should be used within a very short time.
