GETTING YOUR APPLIANCE READY FOR USE
NOTICE
After the appliance has been delivered, leave it to stand in its upright position for approximately 3 hours, before plugging it into the mains and switching on, to ensure proper performance.
Before placing food in the refrigerator or freezer, clean the interior well with warm water and baking soda.
After plugging the appliance into the socket, make sure that the light is on inside the appliance. Then turn the temperature control (A) to the “3” setting. After a few hours, you can place fresh food in the refrigerator.
How to use the Refrigerator...
The temperature control automatically regulates the temperature inside the appliance
1 = minimum cold temperature
5 = maximum cold temperature
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 compartment. When the appliance is operating, this panel may be cov- ered with frost or droplets of water depending on whether the compressor is operating or not.
Do not be concerned about this!
The refrigerator is operating normally.
If the temperature control is positioned on higher settings while the refrigerator is heavily filled and the ambient temperature high, the appliance may run continuously, resulting in the for- mation of frost on the back cooling area. This will lead to an increase in energy consumption.
To avoid this situation, just turn the temperature con- trol to a lower setting so that the appliance defrosts automatically.
