Setting the temperature • Higher settings (towards 7) selected with the knob correspond to lower (cooler) temperatures. The temperature in the refrigerator interior may drop below 0°C. Only use higher settings when a lower temperature is desired and recommended or when environment temperature is lower than 16°C. When the environment temperature is normal, a medium setting is recommended. • A change in the environment temperature affects the temperature in the appliance. Hence, the thermostat setting should be adjusted accordingly. • When the thermostat knob is set to position STOP (0), the appliance will not operate (cooling system is off); however, the appliance is still powered (a light will illuminate the interior when the refrigerator door is opened). Fan (only with some models) • The fan distributes the cool air in the refrigerator more evenly, speeds up the cooling process, and reduces accumulation of dew on the shelves. It only operates when the compressor is in operation. • Switching on the fan is recommended as an additional function in the following cases: - when room temperature rises (above 30°C), - in case of higher humidity or when droplets of dew start to accumulate on the shelves, - when inserting larger quantities of food (rapid cooling). • Switching the fan on and off Switch on = Switch off = 0 Warning: When the fan is switched on, power consumption increases and the temperature in the refrigerator drops. Hence, it is recommended to reset the temperature in the appliance interior. • The shelves can be inserted to any of the shelf guides in the refrigerator interior. To remove a shelf from the refrigerator, lift is slightly at the front, tilt as required, and pull it out. Food that perishes quickly should be kept at the back of the shelf where the temperatures are lower. • Certain models are equipped with wire bottle rack which enables placing of bottles on the cork.
