Starting up and temperature regulation

Wash the inside of the appliance with lukewarm water with a little bicar- bonate of soda added (5ml to 0,5 litre of water). Do not use soap or deter- gent as the smell may linger. Dry the appliance thoroughly.

•When the refrigerator compartment door is opened, the internal lighting is switched on. The temperature control knob is located on the right hand side of the refrigerator compartment.

Setting “0”: Off.

Setting “1”: Hightest temperature, (warmest setting).

Setting “6” (end-stop) :Lowest temperature, (coldest setting).

The exact setting should be chosen keeping in mind that the temperature inside the refrigerator depends on:

-the quantity of food stored

-how often the door is opened

The temperatures in the refrigerator compartment and freezer compart- ment cannot be independently regulated.

If you want to freeze fresh food rapidly, select setting “6”, ensuring that the temperature in the refrigerator compartment does not drop below 0°C. You should reset the temperature control knob to setting “3” or “4”, if this does occur.

As soon as the fresh food placed in the freezer has frozen, return the tem- perature control knob to “3” or “4”.

Important!

High ambient temperatures (e.g. on hot summer days) and a cold setting on the temperature regulator (position"5" to "6") can cause the compressor to run continuously.

If this happens, turn the temperature control knob back to a warmer set- ting (position "3" to "4"). At this setting the compressor will be switched on and off as usual and automatic defrosting recommenced.
