OPERATION
Before use
Remove all securing tapes. Wash inside the
appliance with lukewarm water and bicarbonate of
soda (5 ml to 0.5 litre of water). Do not use soap or
detergent as the smell may linger. Dry thoroughly.
Setting the temperature
The temperature inside the refrigerator and the
-star compartment is regulated by a thermostat
with 6 temperature positions and one «OFF» (O)
position.
Position 1 = minimum coldness
Position 6 = maximum coldness
Turn the thermostat dial to the required position.
An intermediate position is usually the most suitable,
although the temperature will be affected by:
l
Room temperature
l
How often the door is opened
l
How much food is stored
l
Position of the appliance
In determining the correct temperature control setting
all these factors have to be considered and some
experimentation may be necessary.
When altering the temperature setting, allow 24 hours
for the temperature to stablise before making further
changes.
Important
The temperature inside the refrigerator and
-starcompartment can be regulated by
adjusting the conveyor located under the
-starcompartment.
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.
Do not cover the shelves with any protective material,
such as paper, cardboard or plastic, which may
obstruct the air circulation through them.
To help you use your refrigerator correctly, here are
some more useful hints:
Raw meat(beef, pork, lamb, chicken or poultry): wrap
in polythene bags and place on top of the salad bin.
Meat can only be stored safely in this way for one
or two days at the most.
Fruit & vegetables
: these should be thoroughly
cleaned and placed in the bottom salad bin.
Butter & 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.
The walls of the refrigerator are equipped with
runners so that shelves can be positioned as desired.
To obtain a lower temperature in the -star
compartment when frozen food is stored inside
and when the ambient temperature is 25°C or
lower slightly raise the conveyor (A) and push it
all the way in. When frozen food is not stored in the
-star compartment and when the ambient
temperature is higher than 25°C return the
conveyor to its initial position. This reduces the
temperature in the refrigerator compartment.
