Turning on and

temperature selection

Clean the inside of the appliance
thoroughly, before using the first time
(see cleaning).
Turning on
Turn temperature selector (Figure d) out
of the position "O".
The refrigerating process begins.
Should the door of the freezer compartment
refuse to come open shortly after having
closed it, please wait for two or three
minutes for the suction produced, when the
door was first opened, to release.
Temperature selection
Use the temperature selector (Figure d)
to adjust the temperature of both freezer
and refrigerating compartments.
Observe the high figures yield low degrees
of temperature.
When the temperature selector is placed at
setting "O" the refrigerating process is
turned off. From setting "1" onwards it starts
and increases.
We suggest a medium temperature
setting (approximately "2-3").
To freeze foods, rotate the temperature
control to "3" (see also "Freezing").
Observe the following for the
storage of frozen food:
If the temperature of the room where the
appliance has been placed drops below
+20ºC the freezer switch should be
connected. A red mark will indicate it is on
(figure d/22). On connecting the switch, the
inner light will remain on at reduced power.
This ensures that the temperature required
in the freezer compartment for long-life
storage of food is maintained.

compartment and appliance's door open.
