OPERATION

Before use

Remove all securing tapes. Wash inside the appliance with lukewarm water and bicarbonate of soda (5 ml to 0.5 litre of water). Do not use soap or detergent as the smell may linger. Dry thoroughly.

Setting the temperature

The temperature inside the refrigerator and the -star compartment is regulated by a thermostat

with 6 temperature positions and one «OFF» (O) position.

Position 1 = minimum coldness Position 6 = maximum coldness

Turn the thermostat dial to the required position.

An intermediate position is usually the most suitable, although the temperature will be affected by:

•Room temperature

•How often the door is opened

•How much food is stored

•Position of the appliance

In determining the correct temperature control setting all these factors have to be considered and some experimentation may be necessary.

When altering the temperature setting, allow 24 hours for the temperature to stablise before making further changes.

Important

The temperature inside the refrigerator and

-star compartment can be regulated by adjusting the conveyor located under the -star compartment.

To obtain a lower temperature in the -star compartment when frozen food is stored inside and when the ambient temperature is 25°C or lower slightly raise the conveyor (A) and push it all the way in. When frozen food is not stored in

the -star compartment and when the ambient temperature is higher than 25°C return the conveyor to its initial position. This reduces the temperature in the refrigerator compartment.

Fresh food refrigeration

To obtain the best performance, do not store warm food or evaporating liquids in the refrigerator; do cover or wrap the food, particularly if it has a strong flavour.

Do not cover the shelves with any protective material, such as paper, cardboard or plastic, which may obstruct the air circulation through them.

To help you use your refrigerator correctly, here are some more useful hints:

Raw meat (beef, pork, lamb, chicken or poultry): wrap in polythene bags and place on the shelf on top of the salad bin.

Meat can only be stored safely in this way for one or two days at the most.

Fruit & vegetables: these should be thoroughly cleaned and placed in the bottom salad bin.

Butter & cheese: these should be placed in special airtight containers or wrapped in aluminium foil or polythene bags, to exclude as much air as possible. Milk bottles: these should have a cap and should be stored in the bottle rack on the door.

The walls of the refrigerator are equipped with runners so that shelves can be positioned as desired.
