DESCRIPTION OF THE APPLIANCE Butter shelf Sliding shelf Bottle shelf Air outlet duct Air inlet filter Salad drawer Storage shelves Thermostat Freeezer compartment Temperature indicator 4 USE Cleaning the interior Before using the appliance for the first time, wash the interior and all internal accessories with lukewarm water and some neutral soap so as to remove the typical smell of a brand-new product, then dry thoroughly. Do not use detergents or abrasive powders, as these will damage the finish. Fresh food refrigeration The refrigerator compartment is suitable for cooling drinks and for normal food storing. To obtain the best performance, do not store warm food or evaporating liquids in the refrigerator and do cover or wrap up the food, particularly if it has a strong smell. Starting-up Insert the plug into the wall socket. Open the door and turn the thermostat control knob, to be found on the upper right hand side of the inner compartment, clockwise beyond position «O» (OFF) to start the appliance. Freezing fresh food The 4-star 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 temperature might drop below 0°C. If this occurs reset thermostat knob to a warmer setting. Temperature control Temperature adjustment is obtained by turning the thermostat knob clockwise until its pointer coincides with the required setting. A medium setting is generally the most suitable. The minimum setting (least cold) is represented by the lowest number and the maximum setting (coldest) by the highest number. In any case, bear in mind that the temperature can be either increased (warmer) by turning the thermostat knob anticlockwise or decreased (colder) by turning it clockwise. It is important to periodically clean the defrost water drain hole (F) situated under the salad drawers to prevent the water overflowing and dripping onto the food inside. Use the special cleaner provided (P), which you will find already inserted into the drain hole. The freezer compartment, however, will become progressively covered with frost. To replace the filter reverse the process. An accumulation of dust will affect the performance of the appliance and cause excessive electricity consumption. The structure of the appliance permits cleaning of the rear zone close to the wall, using a vacuum cleaner. When the appliance is not in use for long periods, take the following precautions: remove the plug from the wall socket; remove all food: defrost and clean the interior and all accessories; leave the door ajar to allow air to circulate to prevent unpleasant smells.
