OPERATION
Starting-up and Temperature Regulation
Insert the plug into the wall socket. Open the
refrigerator door and turn the thermostat knob, to
be found on the upper right side of the inner liner,
clockwise, beyond the «
O » position, to start the
appliance.
Temperature adjustment is obtained by turning the
thermostat knob to the required setting. A medium
setting is generally the most suitable. However, the
thermostat knob setting should be adjusted
depending on the temperature required inside the
appliance. This, in turn, depends on a number of
factors such as the ambient temperature, the
number of times the door is opened, the quantity of
food stored and the location of the appliance. Turn
the knob clockwise, to higher numbers, to obtain a
lower temperature, or anticlockwise if a higher
temperature is required.
Fresh food refrigeration
To obtain the best performance:
do not store warm food or evaporating liquids in the
refrigerator;
do cover or wrap the food, particularly if it has a
strong flavour.
Position food so that air can circulate freely round
it.
Useful hints:
Meat (all types): wrap in polythene bags and place
on the glass shelf above the vegetable drawer.
For safety, store in this way only one or two days at the
most.
Cooked foods, cold dishes, etc..:
these should be cov-
ered and may be placed on any shelf.
Fruit and vegetables: these should be thoroughly
cleaned and placed in the special drawer(s) provid-
ed.
Butter and cheese: these should be placed in special
airtight containers or wrapped in aluminium foil or
polythene bags to exclude as much air as possible.
Milk bottles: these should have a cap and should be
stored in the bottle rack on the door.
Bananas, potatoes, onions and garlic, if not packed,
must not be kept in the refrigerator.
Further hints for getting the best out of your
refrigerator are the following:
Cooked food, cold dishes, jellies etc., should be well
covered.
Fruit and vegetables should be washed before being
stored.
Raw meat (all types, including poultry) should be
stored in plastic bags.
Movable shelves
Fig. 4
The walls of the
refrigerator are
equipped with a
series of runners
so that the
shelves can be
positioned as
desired.
Positioning the door shelves (Fig. 6-7)
To permit storage of food packages of various sizes,
the door shelves can be adjusted in height.
To make these adjustments proceed as follows:
Gradually pull the shelf in the direction of the
arrows until it comes free, then reposition as
required (Fig. 6).

For more thorough cleaning, the top door shelf can
be removed by pulling it in the direction of the
arrows, then refitting it in position (Fig. 7).
