OPERATION Setting the temperature The temperature inside the refrigerator is regulated by a thermostat with 6 temperature positions and one «OFF» (O) position. Position 1 = minimum cold Position 6 = maximum cold Turn the thermostat dial to the required position.
The refrigerator compartment The coldest area of the refrigerator is the lower part, above the fruit and vegetable drawer. For the best performance from your refrigerator, always follow these rules: ■ never put hot drinks or food into the refrigerator, leave them to cool at room temperature first ■ cover food, especially if strong smelling ■ space out the food so that the air can circulate freely around it ■ don't block air circulation by covering the gap between the front part of the shelves and the back.
The freezer compartment Freezing fresh food When starting up the appliance for the first time or after a period of non use, position the thermostat to a medium setting (3 or 4) and leave for at least 4 hours before placing the food to be frozen inside. If you wish to fast-freeze a quantity of fresh food, press the ambient switch (light on) located near the thermostat knob. Leave it on this position for 24 hours before placing in the food and set it back to normal position after further 24 hours.
Some useful hints for freezing ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ Normal Operating Sounds The fresh foods to be frozen must be fresh and of the best quality. The size of each pack should be small enough to ensure that it is used in one go. Small packs freeze more quickly and uniformly and give better results. Frozen food, once thawed, must not be refrozen. Lean food keeps better and longer than fatty food, salt reduces the storage time.

Defrosting Refrigerator The refrigerator automatically defrosts every time the compressor stops. The water is discharged, via the pipe, into a tray located at the back of the appliance above the compressor, where it evaporates. Important To avoid defrost water overflowing into the fridge, periodically clean the water discharge hole in the centre of the V shaped drip collector at the back of the refrigerator compartment behind the fruit and vegetable drawer.
