4. OPERATION
4.1 Switching on
1. Insert the plug into the wall socket.
2. Turn the Temperature regulator
clockwise to a medium setting.
4.2 Switching off
To turn off the appliance, turn the
temperature regulator to the "O"
position.
4.3 Temperature regulation
The temperature is regulated
automatically.
1. Turn the Temperature regulator
toward lower settings to obtain the
minimum coldness.
2. Turn the Temperature regulator
toward higher settings to obtain the
maximum coldness.
A medium setting is
generally the most suitable.
However, the exact setting
should be chosen keeping in
mind that the temperature
inside the appliance
depends on:
• room temperature,
• how often the door is
opened,
• the quantity of food
stored,
• the location of the
appliance.
CAUTION!
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.
5. DAILY USE
WARNING!
Refer to Safety chapters.
5.1 Freezing fresh food
The freezer compartment is suitable for
freezing fresh food and storing frozen
and deep-frozen food for a long time.
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 in the
two top compartments.
The maximum amount of food that can
be frozen in 24 hours is specified on the
