Operation-Temperature adjustment

Connect the plug to the wall socket.
Start by using a medium setting and then, later,
select the thermostat position most suitable for
your requirements.
The temperature is adjusted automatically and may
be increased (warmer) by turning the knob towards
the lower settings or may be decreased (colder) by
turning it towards the higher settings.
The correct position, however, must be located by
taking into account that the internal temperature
depends on the following factors:
room temperature;
the number of times the door is opened;
the amount of stored food;
the location of the appliance.
To switch off the appliance, turn the thermostat
knob to position « O ».
Important
When the thermostat is on the coldest setting and
the room temperature is particularly high, the
appliance may run uninterruptedly with consequent
frost formation on the back wall of the refrigerator
compartment. In such a case it is necessary to set
the thermostat to a warmer setting so as to enable
automatic defrosting to take place and consequently
save electricity consumption.

A

Fresh food refrigeration

To obtain the best performance:
do not store warm food or evaporating liquids in the
refrigerator;
do cover or wrap the food, particularly if it has a
strong flavour.
Position food so that air can circulate freely round
it.
Useful hints:
Meat (all types): wrap in polythene bags and place
on the glass shelf above the vegetable drawer.
For safety, store in this way only one or two days at the
most.
Cooked foods, cold dishes, etc..: these should be
covered and may be placed on any shelf.
Fruit and vegetables: these should be thoroughly
cleaned and placed in the special drawer(s)
provided.
Butter and cheese: these should be placed in special
airtight containers or wrapped in aluminium foil or
polythene bags to exclude as much air as possible.
Milk bottles: these should have a cap and should be
stored in the bottle rack on the door.
Bananas, potatoes, onions and garlic, if not packed,
must not be kept in the refrigerator.
