Use of the refrigerator

Turn the thermostat knob on the interior of the cabinet
to a setting between 2 and 4, which is usually the
most appropriate. However, the exact setting should
be chosen keeping in mind that the temperature in-
side the refrigerator depends on:
room temperature;
how often the door is opened;
the quantity of food stored in the refrigerator;
location of appliance.
As in the case of the freezer, it might be necessary to
turn the knob to higher settings to obtain a lower re-
frigeration temperature or, vice versa, to lower settings
to increase the refrigeration temperature.
When the refrigerator is set for the coldest tempera-
tures, with a high surrounding room temperature, it
will probably be in constant use, with consequent
frosting of the back wall of the compartment. If this
does in fact occur, the knob should be set to obtain a
slightly higher temperature. In this way the refrigerator
automatically defrosts, with a considerable energy
saving.
To stop operation, simply turn the thermostat knob to
position «O».
The freezer compartment will remain operating.
Storage of foods in refrigerator compart-
ment
To achieve the best results with the refrigerator com-
partment, you should follow one or two very simple
rules:
Do not put warm foods or evaporating liquids in the
refrigerator.
Cover or wrap foods (particularly if they have a strong
smell or contain aromatic herbs).
Do not cover the shelves (grids) with paper or plastic
since this blocks circulation of air in the compartment.
Further hints for getting the best out of your refrigera-
tor are as follows:
Cooked foods, cold dishes, jellies, etc., should be well
covered;
Fruit and vegetables should be washed before being
stored;
Raw meat (of all types, including poultry) should be
stored in plastic bags.

Positioning the door shelves

To permit storage of food packages of various sizes,
the door shelves can be adjusted in height.
To make these adjustments proceed as follows:
Gradually pull the shelf in the direction of the arrows
until it comes free, then reposition as required.

Movable shelves

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