6. USING THE APPLIANCE

6.1 Switching the appliance on

After the appliance has been connected to the mains, see par. “3.3 Electrical connection”, turn the knobs

and to a position other than the minimum setting. The green light will light up to indicate that the refrigerator and freezer compartments are operating.

After starting up the appliance, it will take around 3 hours before the freezer compartment reaches the set temperature.

For both compartments, the temperature should be set to reflect how often the doors will be opened, the amount of food stored in them and the ambient conditions.

The refrigerator compartment can be set to zero () so that only the freezer compartment is operating.

The freezer compartment, however, cannot be set to zero () so that only the refrigerator compartment operates.

Important

Changes in climatic conditions (temperature and humidity) and the frequency with which the door is opened affect the appliance’s operating temperatures.

6.2 Arranging foods inside the refrigerator compartment

Arrange the foods on the various shelves, taking care that they have an airtight wrapping or cover. This precaution will:

-conserve foods' fragrance, moisture and freshness;

-prevent the cross-contamination of foods with different aromas and tastes;

-prevent the humidity level inside the refrigerator becoming too high because of the normal breathing of food (especially fresh fruit and vegetables). In some operating conditions (rise in ambient

temperature and humidity, more frequent opening of the door) this might cause condensation to form on the shelves.

Use only containers approved for food storage. Always allow hot foods and drinks to cool to room temperature before placing them inside the refrigerator.

Never store explosive substances in the appliance and only store high-alcohol drinks firmly sealed and vertical.

The NO-FROST system with which the appliance is equipped ensures constant temperature operation and higher cooling power.

The air which is fan-driven is free of humidity and quickly dries the food placed in the refrigerator compartment. This is another reason to make sure that the food placed in the refrigerator is sealed.
