Operation

Before use

Remove all securing tapes. Wash inside the appliance with lukewarm water and bicarbonate of soda

(5 ml to 0.5 litre of water). Do not use soap or deter- gent as the smell may linger. Dry thoroughly.

Setting the temperature

The temperature inside the refrigerator and the

-star compartment is regulated by a thermostat with 6 temperature positions and one «OFF» (O) posi- tion.

Position 1 = minimum coldness Position 6 = maximum coldness

Turn the thermostat dial to the required position; the intermediate position is usually the most suitable (3-4).

The thermostat setting can vary as the temperature inside the refrigeration compartment depends on the following factors:

-room temperature

-how often the door is opened

-how much food is stored

-position of the appliance

Important

The temperature inside the refrigerator and -star compartment can be regulated by

adjusting the conveyor located under the - star compartment.

To obtain a lower temperature in the - star compartment when frozen food is stored inside and when the ambient temperature is 25°C or lower slightly raise the conveyor (A) and push it all the way in. When frozen food

is not stored in the -star compartment and when the ambient temperature is higher than 25°C return the conveyor to its initial position. This reduces the temperature in the refrigerator compartment.

The -star compartment

This compartment is suitable for the storage of com- mercially frozen food and for ice cube making.

Frozen food storage

Storing ready-frozen foods is quite straightfor- ward. The packs can be placed beside each other or on top of each other.

You are strongly advised to place ready-frozen food in the compartment as quickly as possible after purchase and we therefore recommend that you buy them last. Also ensure that the external packaging is intact.

Packaging which is swollen or has traces of refrozen water droplets on the pack could indicate that the product has not been kept at a suitable temperature and that it may have lost its original quality.

Partially thawed food must not be refrozen, it must be consumed within 24 hours.

Never exceed the storage times indicated.

Do not open the -star compartment door too often and do not leave open longer than neces- sary.

Important

In the event of a power cut the food in the

-star compartment will not be affect- ed if the power cut is short and if the com- partment is full. Do not open the door.

Should the food begin to thaw, it must be consumed quickly and must not be re- frozen.
