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

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 high ambient temperature, the appliance 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:

Food

Arrangement inside the

refrigerator

 

Fresh fish and meat

Above the fruit and vegetable

bins

 

Fresh cheese

Above the fruit and vegetable

bins

 

Cooked food

On any shelf

• Place only cold or lukewarm foods in the

GB

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.

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.

MULTI-USE*bin: to store food (such as cold meats) for a long time and also prevent odours from lingering in the refrigerator.

BOTTLE RACK/ CAN RACK* flap door: to store a bottle or several cans horizontally (see diagram). When not in use, close the flap door to increase the space in the refrigerator compartment.

WINE AREA*: to store up to three bottles of wine (see

diagram). The air circulates freely between the bottles guaranteeing rapid cooling. When not in use, close it to increase the space on the shelf.
