Setting the temperature
The temperature inside the refrigerator and
freezer is regulated by a single thermostat with
6 temperature positions and one «OFF» (O)
position.
Position 1 = minimum cold
Position 6 = maximum cold
Turn the thermostat dial to the required position;
the intermediate position is usually the most
suitable. The thermostat setting can vary as
the temperature inside the refrigerator
compartment depends on the following factors:
- room temperature
- how often the door is opened
- how much food is stored
- position of the appliance
Important
If the refrigerator is not defrosting correctly, it is
possible that because a very low temperature
has been selected and the motor is working
continuously, which prevents the defrost cycle
from operating.
To ensure correct defrosting, a lower number
should be selected on the thermostat and you
should notice that the motor cuts out from time
to time, which is correct.
If you wish to return to a lower temperature, turn
the thermostat to a higher number; however you
should turn the setting lower occasionally to
allow automatic defrosting.
To ensure that the appliance is working
efficiently when the room temperature drops
below 14°C, a switch is located next to the
thermostat (fig. 14).
No damage can be caused by leaving the
switch in this position for any period of time (see
page 18 Low ambient operation).

The freezer compartment
The four-star freezer compartment is suitable
for storage of commercially frozen food and for
freezing fresh foods.
Freezing fresh food
It is not necessary to adjust the thermostat
setting when freezing fresh food.Depress the
ambient switch at least 12 hours before loading
food to be frozen.(Fig.14)
In any 24 hours you can freeze up to 10 kg.
Place food to be frozen in the upper drawer of
the freezer as this is the coldest part.
If large quantities of food are to be stored,
remove all drawers and baskets from the
appliance and place food on cooling shelves.
Pay careful attention not to exceed load limit
stated on the side of the upper section.
Caution
In the event of a power cut the food in the
freezer will not be affected if the power cut is
short and if the freezer is full. Do not open the
door. Should the food begin to thaw, it must be
consumed quickly and must not be re-frozen
(see page 16).
DEFROSTED COOKED FOOD MUST NOT BE
REFROZEN.
Thawing
Food can be thawed in a number of ways,
depending on the type of food and the size of
the packs. Meat, fish and fruit should be thawed
in the refrigerator compartment and small
pieces of meat or poultry can even be cooked
while still frozen, but you must ensure that it is
thoroughly cooked through. Vegetables should
be directly immersed in boiling water; ready-
cooked dishes can be placed directly in the
oven in their aluminium wrapping. A microwave
oven is particularly suitable for thawing any type
of frozen or deep-frozen food: follow the oven
instructions, particularly regarding the
placement of aluminium wrapping or containers
in the oven.
Making ice cubes
The appliance is provided with two plastic ice
cube trays.
Fill the trays 3/4 full to allow the ice to expand
and place them in one of the freezer drawers.
To turn out the ice cubes simply give the tray a
slight twist to release the cubes.
