Starting up the appliance
Plug in the appliance. When
the appliance is connected
to the mains, the inside
light switches on each time
the door is opened
(provided that the
thermostat is set to
z
).
The thermostat is used to
adjust the temperature of
both the refrigerator
compartment and low
temperature compartment
(if fitted).

optimum storage of food,
follow instructions given

internal temperatures;
numbers
3-4/MED
for a
MEDIUM
internal
temperature;
highest
numbers
5-7/
MAX
for the
COLDEST
internal temperatures.
Thermostat set to
z
: no
operation, no light.
Note:
The ambient air
temperature, frequency of
door opening and the
position of the appliance can
affect internal temperatures.
These factors must be taken
into account when setting
the thermostat.

of the crisper drawer:
this will not affect the
correct operation of the
appliance.
