User manual

• room temperature

• how often the door is opened

• the quantity of food stored

• the location of the appliance.

If the ambient temperature is high or the appliance is fully loaded, and the appliance is set

to the lowest temperatures, it may run continuously causing frost to form on the rear wall.

In this case the dial must be set to a higher temperature to allow automatic defrosting and

therefore reduced energy consumption.

First use

Cleaning the interior

Before using the appliance for the first time, wash the interior and all internal accessories

with lukewarm water and some neutral soap so as to remove the typical smell of a brand-

new product, then dry thoroughly.

Do not use detergents or abrasive powders, as these will damage the finish.

Daily use

Freezing fresh food

The freezer compartment is suitable for freezing fresh food and storing frozen and deep-

frozen food for a long time.

To freeze fresh foods it is not necessary to change the medium setting.

However, for a faster freezing operation, turn the temperature regulator toward higher

settings to obtain the maximum coldness.

In this condition, the refrigerator compartment temperature might drop below 0°C. If this

occurs reset the temperature regulator to a warmer setting.

Place the fresh food to be frozen on the top compartment.

Storage of frozen food

When first starting-up or after a period out of use, before putting the products in the

compartment let the appliance run at least 2 hours on the higher settings.

If large quantities of food are to be stored, remove all drawers and baskets from appliance

and place food on cooling shelves to obtain the best performance.

WARNING!

Make sure that foods do not exceed the load limit stated on the side of the upper section

(where applicable)
