1. Control panel
To operate the appliance, turn the thermostat knob (A) in
a clockwise direction from the “OFF” position to a setting
that corresponds to the desired level of refrigeration.
The thermostat knob can be set to any position between
minimum (less cold) and maximum (cold est): MIN - MED
- MAX.
When the thermostat knob is turned back to OFF, this
automatically shuts down the compressor and turns off
the light.
Use a coin or a screwdriver to adjust the temperature set-
ting; avoid using other sharp utensils such as scissors.
2. Adjusting the temperature
When setting the temperature, take into account the fol-
lowing factors:
- ambient temperature;
- amount of food stored in the appliance;
- frequency of door opening;
We advise you set the temperature initially mid-way bet-
ween MED and MAX; by simply observing appliance
operation, you will quickly be able to establish the best
temperature setting for your needs.
Appropriate temperature setting is an important factor for
optimum storage of food.
The aggressive action of microrganisms causes food to
perish quickly: by selecting the appropriate storage tem-
perature, this process can be prevented or at least slo-
wed down. Temperature influences the speed at which
microrganisms proliferate. By lowering the temperature,
you can slow down such proliferation.
For this reason, we recommend you main-
tain an average temperature inside the
refrigerator (5°C or lower).
When the thermostat is turned up too high (MAX), in
the presence of high ambient temperatures and large
amounts of food in the compartment the appliance may
run continually, resulting in excessive frost or ice for-
ming on the walls.
In these conditions, the thermostat must be turned to a
lower setting, in order to restore the correct operation of
the appliance and to significantly save energy.
