Start-up and use

Starting the appliance

!Before starting the appliance, follow the installation instructions (see Installation).

!Before connecting the appliance, clean the compartments and accessories well with lukewarm water and bicarbonate.

1.Insert the plug into the socket and ensure that the internal light illuminates.

2.Turn the TEMPERATURE ADJUSTMENT knob to an average value. After a few hours you will be able to put food in the refrigerator.

Using the refrigerator to its full potential

•Use the TEMPERATURE ADJUSTMENT knob to adjust the temperature (see Description).

•Place only cold or lukewarm foods in the compartment, not hot foods (see Precautions and tips).

•Remember that cooked foods do not last longer than raw foods.

•Do not store liquids in open containers. They will increase humidity in the refrigerator and cause condensation to form.

Setting the temperature

The temperature inside the refrigerator compartment automatically adjusts itself according to the position of the thermostat knob.

1 = warmest 5 = coldest

We recommend, however, a medium position.

The cooling section of the refrigerator is located inside the back wall of the refrigerator compartment for increased space and improved aesthetics. During operation, the back wall will be covered in frost or water droplets depending on whether the compressor is operating or paused. Do not worry, the refrigerator is functioning normally.

If the TEMPERATURE ADJUSTMENT knob has been set

on high values with large quantities of food and with a highambient temperature,theappliance can operate

continuously, resulting in excessive frost formation and excessive energy consumption: compensate for this by shifting the knob towards lower values (defrosting will occur automatically).

In static appliances, the air circulates in a natural way: the colder air tends to move downwards as it is heavier. The food should be stored as follows:

	Fresh fish and meat	Above the fruit and vegetable
	Fresh fish and meat	bins
		bins
	Fresh cheese	Above the fruit and vegetable
	Fresh cheese	bins
		bins
	Cooked food	On any shelf

	Salami, bread loaf,	On any shelf
	chocolate	On any shelf
	chocolate

	Fruit and vegetables	In the fruit and vegetable bins

	Eggs	On the shelf provided

	Butter and margarine	On the shelf provided

	Bottles, drinks, milk	On the shelf provided

SHELVES: with or without grill. Due to the special guides the shelves are removable and the height is adjustable (see diagram), allowing easy storage of large containers and food. Height can be adjusted without complete removal of the shelf.
