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 «

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.
Storage of food in the refrigerator compartment
To achieve the best results with the refrigerator
compartment, 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 with paper or plastic since
this blocks the air circulation in the compartment.
Please note: Do not place foodstuffs and paperbags
etc. in contact with the evaporator plate at the rear
of the refrigerator compartment as this can impair
operation of the refrigerator.
In addition, food should be positioned inside the
refrigerator compartment as indicated in the figure
below:
1.
Cold cooked meats, cheese, butter, milk
2.
Meat and fish
3.
Fruit and vegetables.
In this position, fresh meat can be stored for 1-2 days
at most.
Further hints for getting the best out of your
refrigerator are the following:
Cooked food, cold dishes, jellies, etc., should be well
covered.
Fruit and vegetables should be washed before being
stored.
Raw meat (all types, including poultry) should be
stored in plastic bags.
