[. . . ] Otherwise, the refrigerator must work harder. This will increase the power consumption. Therefore: Never cover or block ventilation openings! Switching on the appliance Rotate temperature selector, Fig. Interior light is switched on when the door is open. Selecting the temperature We recommend storing perishable foods at a temperature not warmer than +4 ºC. When the controller is at a medium setting, the temperature drops to approx. A higher setting lowers the temperature in the refrigerator and freezer compartments. We recommend: S for short term storage of food: low controller setting (energy saving mode) S for long term storage of food: medium controller setting S set a high controller setting only temporarily if: door is opened frequently, large amounts of food are placed in the refrigerator compartment. If the ambient temperature drops below the permitted temperature limit, the freezer compartment may become too warm. The frozen food may thaw in extreme cases. Appliances which feature an ambient temperature switch can run at an ambient temperature of +16 °C to +10 °C when this switch is on. The light inside the appliance continues glowing at a reduced luminosity. If the ambient temperature rises above +16 °C, switch off the switch again. 6 en Refrigerating capacity The temperature in the refrigerator compartment may rise temporarily if large amounts of food or a lot of drinks are placed in the refrigerator compartment. Therefore the temperature controller should be set to a high setting for approx. 7 hours. Storing of food Take note of the cold zones in the refrigerating zone! Due to the air circulation in the refrigerating zone, zones with different temperatures are produced: S Coldest zones is between the arrow stamped on the side and the glass shelf situated below, Fig. fish, sausage, meat) in the coldest zones. S Warmest zone is at the very top of the door. Note: Store the following in the warmest zone, e. g. When serving, the cheese keeps it aroma and the butter remains spreadable. Operating tips The refrigerator compartment temperature drops temporarily: S by freezing large quantities of fresh food in the freezer compartment. The refrigerator compartment temperature rises: S if the appliance door is opened frequently, S if large quantities of food are placed in the refrigerator compartment, S if the ambient temperature is high. When storing the food, note that food is well wrapped or covered over. In this way, the aroma, colour and freshness remain. Apart from which, the transfer of taste and dying of plastic parts is avoided. Note: If required, you can vary the shelves inside the appliance: pull the shelf forwards, lower and swivel out to the side. 4 7 en We recommend that you arrange the food inside the refrigerator as follows: S on the shelves in the main refrigerator section (from the top down): bakery products, ready to eat items, dairy products, meat and salami S in the vegetable containers: vegetables, lettuce, fruit S in the door racks (from the top down): butter, cheese, eggs, tubes, small bottles, large bottles, milk and fruit juice cartons. [. . . ] Check whether the power is on, check the fuses. Clean the condensation channel and outlet (Fig. 3, see Cleaning the appliance) Floor of the refrigerator compartment is wet. 12 en Fault The temperature in the refrigerator compartment is too cold. Possible cause Temperature has been set too low. Remedial action Increase the temperature. If large quantities of fresh food are Do not exceed max. freezing being frozen, the temperature in the capacity. [. . . ]
