Temperature regulation
The temperature is automatically regulated and can
be increased to achieve a higher temperature
(warmer) by rotating the thermostat knob toward
lower settings or reduced (colder) rotating the knob
towards higher settings.
However, the exact setting should be chosen
keeping in mind that the temperature inside the
refrigerator depends on:
•
room temperature;
•
how often the door is opened;
•
the quantity of food stored;
•
location of appliance.
A medium setting is generally the most suitable.
Important
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.
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.
Freezing fresh food
The freezer compartment is suitable for long term
storage of commercially frozen food, and for freezing
fresh food.
To freeze fresh foods it is not necessary to change
the setting of the thermostat knob.
However, for a quicker freezing operation, turn the
thermostat knob to the coldest setting; but remember
that, in this condition, the refrigerator compartment
temeprature might drop below 0°C. If this occurs
reset thermostat knob to a warmer setting.
Storage of frozen food
When first starting-up or after a period out of use,
before putting the products in the compartment let
the appliance run for at least two hours on the
coldest setting, then turn the thermostat knob to the
normal operating position.

Important
In the event of accidental defrosting, for example
due to a power failure, if the power has been off
for longer that the value shown in the technical
characteristics chart under "rising time", the
defrosted food must be consumed quickly or
cooked immediately and then refrozen (after
cooling).
Thawing
Deep-frozen or frozen food, prior to being used, can
be thawed in the refrigerator compartment or at
room temperature, depending on the time available
for this operation. Small pieces may even be cooked
still frozen, directly from the freezer: in this case,
cooking will take longer.
Ice-cube production
This appliance is equipped with one or more trays
for the production of ice-cubes. Fill these trays with
water, then put them in the freezer compartment.
Do not use metallic instruments to remove the
trays from the freezer.
Movable shelves
The walls of the refrigerator are equipped with a
series of runners so that the shelves can be
positioned as desired.

Reversibilidad de las puertas
Antes de efectuar cualquier operación, desenchufe
el aparato.
Para cambiar el sentido de aperture de la puerta,
proceda de la siguiente manera:

2. Quite la puerta inferior sacándola de la bisagra
intermedia.
3. Desmonte la bisagra intermedia (H).
4. Quite la puerta superior sacándola del perno
superior (G).
5. Desenrosque el perno superior (G) y vuelva a
montarlo en la parse opuesta.
6. Quite los dos tapones de las puertas (donde
están previstos), dejando descubiertos los
agujeros pare los pernos de la bisagra y vuelva a
montarlos en el iado opuesto; monte nuevamente
la puerta superior.
7. Vuelva a montar la puerta inferior.
8. Vuelva a montar la bisagra intermedia dei lado
opuesto.
9. volver a montar la bisagra inferior y lel tornillo en
el lado opuesto
Para alinear las puertas se puede graduar la bisagra
intermedia.
Atención
Terminada la operación de reversibilidad de la
puerta, controlar que la empaquetadura magnética
esté adherida al mueble. Si la temperature ambiente
es fria (por ejemplo en invierno), puede suceder que
la empaquetadura no adhiera perfectamente al
mueble. En este cave esperar que la
empaquetadura se recobre en forma natural o bien
acelerar dicho proceso calentando la parse
interesada con un normal secador de cabellos.
