Do not use detergents or abrasive powders, as these will damage the finish. Check that the drain hose at the rear of the cabinet discharges into the drip tray. DAILY USE Use of the fridge compartment The temperature of this compartment may be regulated between +2°C and +8°C. During normal functioning the indicator shows the set temperature. A medium setting is generally the most suitable. The exact setting should be chosen keeping in mind that the temperature inside the appliance depends on: · room temperature · how often the door is opened · the quantity of food stored · the location of the appliance. · If the ambient temperature is high and the Temperature Regulator is set to low temperature and the appliance is fully loaded, the compressor may run continuously, causing frost or ice on the evaporator.
