The temperature is automatically regulated; it can be increased by turning the dial towards the lower numbers and vice versa. When selecting the correct position, remember that the internal temperature depends on the following factors: ambient temperature, how often the door is opened, the amount of food stored, where the appliance is installed. To switch off, turn the dial until it coincides with the «O» symbol. If the ambient temperature is high and the appliance is set to the lowest temperatures, it may run continuously causing frost to form on the rear wall. In this case the dial must be set to a higher temperature to allow for automatic defrosting and consequently a saving in electricity consumption. Movable shelves Fig. 9 The walls of the refrigerator are equipped with a series of runners so that the shelves can be positioned as desired.
