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.
Setting the temperature
The temperature inside the refrigerator compartment
automatically adjusts itself according to the position of the
thermostat knob.
= warmest
= 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:

shelves are removable and the
height is adjustable (see diagram),
2
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.
Using the refrigerator to its full potential
Use the TEMPERATURE ADJUSTMENT knob to adjust
the temperature (see Description).
Place only cold or lukewarm foods in the 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.
