HOW TO OPERATE THE REFRIGERATOR 

COMPARTMENT

Switching on the appliance

Starting up the appliance

The appliance features internal controls.

Plug in the appliance.

When the appliance is connected to the mains, the inside light 

switches on each time the door is opened. The thermostat knob, 

located either inside the refrigerator compartment or on the top 

section of the appliance (depending on the model), is used to 

adjust the temperature of both the refrigerator compartment and 

the low temperature compartment.

Adjusting the temperature

For correct operation and optimum storage of food, 

follow 

instructions given in the enclosed product sheet for 

thermostat adjustment.
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.

How to use the refrigerator compartment

Position the food as shown in the figure.

A.

Cooked food

B.

Fish, meat

C.

Fruit and vegetables

D.

Bottles

E.

Cheese

Notes:

•

The space between the shelves and the rear wall of the 

refrigerator compartment must be unobstructed to allow 

circulation of air.

•

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

refrigerator compartment.

•

Do not place hot food in the refrigerator.

•

Store liquids in closed containers.

Important

Storing vegetables with high water content can cause 

condensation to form on the glass shelf of the crisper 

drawer: this will not affect the correct operation of the 

appliance.
