PRODUCT DESCRIPTION 4. 1 FAB 30 Refrigerator (A): compartment for storing fresh foods Freezer compartment (B): compartment for storing frozen foods and for freezing fresh foods. 4. 2 FAB 32 Refrigerator (A): compartment for storing fresh foods Freezer compartment (B): compartment for freezing frozen foods The various foods can be placed in the baskets provided. The bottom of the compartment has a channel (D) for collecting and draining the water generated by defrosting (see "Maintenance and Cleaning"). Control panel (C): external controls for regulating the freezer's operation 7 Instructions for the user 4. 3 Shelves each refrigerator comes complete with several shelves which can be set at different heights by placing them on the runners provided. Each shelf has a safety fitting to prevent it from being pulled completely out or accidentally removed. To remove it from the appliance, lift it at the back and extract it. 2) 4. 8 Cheese box A special cheese box with lid is supplied (depending on model). This box can be placed on any shelf as required. 4. 9 Inside lighting When the refrigerator door is opened, the light comes on; it remains on until the door is completely closed again. The light comes on even if the refrigerator thermostat is set on "0" (stop), meaning that the refrigerator is switched off. 8 Instructions for the User 5. ARRANGING FOODS COMPARTMENT INSIDE THE REFRIGERATOR Arrange the foods on the various shelves, taking care that they have an airtight wrapping or cover. This procedure should be used the first time the refrigerator is turned on, and whenever it is turned on after a period out of use, to lower the temperature in the freezer compartment more quickly. (See "Setting the Temperature") 7. 3 Refrigerator with intensive freezing switch 24 hours before freezing a large amount of fresh foods, turn on the switch on the thermostat regulator box. The function is enabled by putting the switch in the " ", position, and is turned off by putting it back on the symbol "0". After turning on the intensive cooling function, turn the thermostat to a setting between 5 and 7. After the 24 hours have passed, insert the fresh foods, turn off the switch and turn the thermostat knob to the setting of your choice. This procedure should be used the first time the refrigerator is turned on, and whenever it is turned on after a period out of use, to lower the temperature in the freezer compartment more quickly. (See "Setting the Temperature"). 7. 4 Refrigerator with rapid freezing function FAB32 The top of the appliance carries two switches and a selector knob for setting the freezing temperature. 7. 4. 1 Control panel 4 5 1 Freezer on/off switch; 2 Red warning light: indicates that the temperature inside the freezer is higher than the temperature set. Goes out when the set temperature is reached; 3 Rapid freezing switch; 4 Temperature regulator; 5 Freezer compartment temperature external thermometer. To turn on the freezer press the switch 1. If the green light is on, the freezer is working. [. . . ] Wait for foods and drinks to cool to room temperature before placing them on the shelves; Open the door(s) as infrequently and for as short a time as possible to prevent the compartments from warming up too much; Clean the condenser (rear of the refrigerator) periodically to prevent the appliance from losing efficiency; On models equipped with intensive cooling and rapid freezing, do not leave these functions activated for longer than absolutely necessary; If the refrigerator is to be out of use for a long period, it is best to empty it and switch it off; Thaw frozen foods in the body of the refrigerator in order to exploit the cold stored in the frozen foods, which will be transferred to the refrigerator if this procedure is used. 9. 6 Operating noise The refrigerator and freezer are cooled by means of a compression system. In order to maintain the preset temperature inside the refrigerator and freezer sections, the compressor comes into operation in response to the level of cooling required, and may operate continuously if necessary. When the compressor starts up a humming sound will be heard, tending to drop in volume after a few minutes. Another normal refrigerator operating noise is a gurgling due to the coolant flowing through the pipes in the circuit. [. . . ]
