Setting up Your Appliance

ATTENTION

After transport stand the appliance upright and wait at least 3 hours before plugging the appliance into the mains to ensure proper performance.

Use these average temperature settings to ensure op- timum performance and to save energy.

Before storing food in your refrigerator, wipe the interior with a solution of warm water and bicarbonate of soda. After having plugged the appliance into the socket, make sure that the refrigerator light has turned on. Then turn the thermostat knob “A” to one of the normal settings.

After a couple of hours, you can place fresh food in the refrigerator.

How to use the refrigerator compartment...

The thermostat automatically regulates the temperature in- side the appliance

= less cold

= colder

It is recommended that a medium setting be used.

To increase the amount of space, optimize arrangement and improve appearance, this appliance has a “cooling area” located within the back panel of the refrigerator compart- ment. When the appliance is operating, this panel may be covered with frost or droplets of water depending on

whether the compressor is operating or not at a given time. Do not be concerned about this! The refrigerator is operat- ing normally.

If the thermostat knob is positioned on higher settings while the refrigerator is heavily filled and the ambient tempera- ture high, the appliance may run continuously, resulting in the formation of frost on the back cooling area. This will lead to an increase in energy consumption.

To avoid this situation, just turn the thermostat knob to a lower setting so that the appliance defrosts auto- matically.
