Temperature regulation
The temperature is automatically regulated and can
be increased to achieve a higher temperature (warm-
er) by rotating the thermostat knob towards minimum
or reduced (colder) by rotating the knob towards max-
imum.
However, the exact setting should be chosen keeping
in mind that the temperature inside the refrigerator de-
pends on:
room temperature;
how often the door is opened;
the quantity of food stored;
location of appliance.
A medium setting is generally the most suitable.
To stop operation, simply turn the thermostat knob to
position «

Fast freezing
To start fast-freezing food, turn the knob towards «S».
Pilot light (D) will come on.
Warning light
Warning light (E) lights up when the temperature in-
side the freezer compartment has increased to a value
which jeopardizes the long-term storage of food in the
compartment.
When the appliance is switched on for the first time or
when food is placed in the compartment for freezing,
it is normal for this light to remain on until the temper-
ature has reached the level required for correct
storage.
