This appliance is a refrigerator with 

a 

 star freezer compartment.

Defrosting of the refrigerator compartment is 
completely automatic.
Optimal performance is obtained at 
temperatures b16°C and +32°C.

Switching on the appliance
Depending on the model, the appliance has 
external (A1-A2) or internal (B) controls.
For appliances having external controls (A1-
A2)
: press the startup button (1).

The interior light switches on when the door 
is opened.

Green LED (2) switches on, indicating 
operation of the appliance.

In models having internal controls (B), when 
the appliance is connected, the interior light 
switches on when the door is opened if the 
thermostat knob is not set on symbol 

z

.

Important:

There is no need to adjust the thermostat 
knob (5) as it has already been factory set to 
ensure the correct storage temperature of 
fresh food at ambient temperatures between 
+20°C and +25°C.

After being switched on, the appliance needs 
approx. 30 minutes to reach the correct 
temperature to store a typical volume of food 
in the refrigerator compartment.

Adjusting the temperature:
Turn the thermostat knob (5) setting:

to lower numbers 1-2 if you require HIGHER 
TEMPERATURES
 in the compartments.

to the highest number - 5 - for LOWER 
TEMPERATURES.

To switch off the refrigerator compartment:
Press the ON/OFF button (A1) (if present; 
alternatively, disconnect the plug from the 
socket).

Using the refrigerator compartment

Position the food as shown in the figure.
A Cooked food
B Fish, meat
C Fruit and vegetables
D Bottles
E Butter
F

Dairy products

.

Notes:

The space between the shelves and the rear 
wall of the refrigerator compartment must be 
unobstructed to allow air circulation.

Do not place the food in direct contact with the rear 
wall of the refrigerator compartment.

Do not place hot food in the refrigerator or 
freezer compartments.

Store liquids in closed containers.

Storing vegetables with high water content can 
cause condensate formation in the crisper: this 
will not affect the appliance's efficiency.
