The exact setting should be chosen keeping in
mind that the temperature inside the appliance
depends on:
• the room temperature;
• how often the door is opened;
• the quantity of food stored;
• the location of the appliance.

Daily use

WARNING!
Refer to Safety chapters.
Initial power on
CAUTION!
Before inserting the power plug in to
the outlet and switching on the
cabinet for the first time, leave the
appliance standing upright for at
least 4 hours. This will assure a
sufficient amount of time for the oil
to return to the compressor.
Otherwise the compressor or
electronic components may sustain
damage.

Storage of frozen food

When first starting-up or after a period out of
use, let the appliance run at least 2 hours
before putting products in the freezer
compartment.
The freezer baskets ensure that it is quick and
easy to find the food packages you want. If
large quantities of food are to be stored, remove
all drawers except for the bottom basket which
secures good air circulation. It is possible to
place food that protrudes 15 mm from the door
on all shelves except the top one.
In the event of accidental defrosting,
for example due to a power failure, if
the power has been off for longer
that the value shown in the technical
characteristics chart under "rising
time", the defrosted food must be
consumed quickly or cooked
immediately and then re-frozen (after
cooling).

If the ambient temperature is high or
the appliance is fully loaded, and the
appliance is set to a low
temperature, it may cause frost to
form on the rear wall. In this case,
set the temperature regulator to a
higher temperature to allow
automatic defrosting and reduced
energy consumption.

Freezing fresh food

The freezer compartment is suitable for freezing
fresh food and storing frozen and deep-frozen
food for a long time.
To freeze fresh foods it is not necessary to
change the medium setting.
However, for a faster freezing operation, turn
the temperature regulator toward higher
settings to obtain the maximum coldness.
In this condition, the refrigerator
compartment temperature might
drop below 0°C. If this occurs reset
the temperature regulator to a
warmer setting.
Place the fresh food to be frozen in the bottom
compartment.
The maximum amount of food that can be frozen
in 24 hours is specified on the rating plate, a
label located on the inside of the appliance.
The freezing process lasts 24 hours: during this
period do not add other food to be frozen.
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.

Movable shelves

The walls of the refrigerator are equipped with a
series of runners so that the shelves can be
positioned as desired.
