Should the appliance be sold or transferred to another owner, or should you move house and leave the appliance, always ensure that the book is supplied with the appliance in order that the new owner can be acquainted with the functioning of the appliance and the relevant warnings. If this appliance featuring magnetic door seals is to replace an older appliance having a spring lock (latch) on the door or lid, be sure to make that spring lock unusable before you discard the old appliance. This will prevent it from becoming a death-trap for a child. [. . . ] To make these adjustments proceed as follows: Gradually pull the shelf in the direction of the arrows until it comes free, then reposition as required. 5 Air recycling The refrigerator compartment is equipped with a special fan which can be turned on with the switch ( see fig. ). The green light, when on, means that the fan is working. It is suggested that the fan be used when the ambient temperature exceeds 25C . This device allows for rapid cooling of foods and a more uniform temperature in the compartment. SWITCH Drawer The drawer is suitable for storing fruit and vegetables. There is a separator inside the drawer that can be placed in different positions to allow for the subdivision best suited to personal needs. There is a grille on the bottom of the drawer to separate the fruit and vegetables from any humidity that may form on the bottom surface. To remove the drawer, use the side handles (as shown in the Fig. ). All parts inside the drawer can be removed for cleaning purposes. Humidity Control The drawer incorporates a device with slits (adjustable by means of a sliding lever), which makes it possible to regulate the temperature in the vegetable drawer(s). The opening in the ventilation slots can be adjusted with the slider. With the ventilation slots open, more air circulation results in a lower air moisture content in the fruit and vegetable compartments. When the ventilation slots are closed, the natural moisture content of the food in the fruit and vegetable compartments is preserved for longer. PR271 6 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 with respect to the normal running position. However, for a quicker freezing operation, turn the thermostat knob to the coldest setting; but remember that, in this condition, the refrigerating compartment temperature might drop below 0C. If this occurs reset thermostat knob to a warmer setting. 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. 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. 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. Freezing Calendar 1-2 3-4 3-6 3-6 3-6 3-6 10 -12 10 -12 10 -12 10 -12 The symbols show different types of frozen goods. The numbers indicate storage times in months for the appropriate types of frozen goods.
