OPERATION
Switching on
Insert the plug into the wall socket. Turn the Temperature regulator clockwise to a medium setting.
Switching off
To turn off the appliance, turn the Tempera­ture regulator to the "O" position.
Temperature regulation
The temperature is automatically regulated. To operate the appliance, proceed as fol­lows:
• turn the Temperature regulator toward lower settings to obtain the minimum cold­ness.
• turn the Temperature regulator toward higher settings to obtain the maximum coldness.
ance shall be disposed according to the applicable regulations to obtain from your local authorities. Avoid dam­aging the cooling unit, especially at the rear near the heat exchanger. The ma­terials used on this appliance marked
by the symbol
A medium setting is generally the most suitable.
However, 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.
Important! If the ambient temperature is high or the appliance is fully loaded, 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 automatic defrosting and therefore reduced energy consumption.
are recyclable.
FIRST 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.
DAILY USE
Important! this appliance is sold in France. In accordance with regulations valid in this country it must be provided with a special device (see figure) placed in the lower com­partment of the fridge to indicate the cold­est zone of it.
Important! Do not use detergents or abra­sive powders, as these will damage the fin­ish.

Movable shelves
The walls of the refrigerator are equipped with a series of runners so that the shelves can be positioned as desired. For better use of space, the front half­shelves can lie over the rear ones.
Positioning the door shelves
To permit storage of food packages of vari­ous sizes, the door shelves can be placed at different heights.
HELPFUL HINTS AND TIPS
Hints for energy saving
• Do not open the door frequently or leave it open longer than absolutely necessary.
• 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. If this happens, set the Temperature Reg­ulator toward warmer settings to allow au­tomatic defrosting and so a saving in elec­tricity consumption.
Hints for fresh food refrigeration
To obtain the best performance:
• do not store warm food or evaporating liq­uids in the refrigerator
• do cover or wrap the food, particularly if it has a strong flavour
• position food so that air can circulate free­ly around it
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.
Hints for refrigeration
Useful hints: Meat (all types) : wrap in polythene bags and place on the glass shelf above the veg­etable drawer. For safety, store in this way only one or two days at the most. Cooked foods, cold dishes, etc..: these should be covered and may be placed on any shelf. Fruit and vegetables: these should be thor­oughly cleaned and placed in the special drawer(s) provided. Butter and cheese: these should be placed in special airtight containers or wrapped in aluminium foil or polythene bags to exclude as much air as possible. Milk bottles: these should have a cap and should be stored in the bottle rack on the door. Bananas, potatoes, onions and garlic, if not packed, must not be kept in the refrigerator.

CARE AND CLEANING
Caution! Unplug the appliance before carrying out any maintenance operation.
This appliance contains hydrocarbons in its cooling unit; maintenance and re­charging must therefore only be carried out by authorized technicians.
Periodic cleaning
The equipment has to be cleaned regularly:
• clean the inside and accessories with luke­warm water and some neutral soap.
• regularly check the door seals and wipe clean to ensure they are clean and free from debris.
• rinse and dry thoroughly.
Important! Do not pull, move or damage any pipes and/or cables inside the cabinet. Never use detergents, abrasive powders, highly perfumed cleaning products or wax polishes to clean the interior as this will dam­age the surface and leave a strong odour.
Clean the condenser (black grill) and the compressor at the back of the appliance with a brush or a vacuum cleaner. This op­eration will improve the performance of the appliance and save electricity consumption.
Important! Take care of not to damage the cooling system.
Many proprietary kitchen surface cleaners contain chemicals that can attack/damage the plastics used in this appliance. For this reason it is recommended that the outer cas­ing of this appliance is only cleaned with warm water with a little washing-up liquid added. After cleaning, reconnect the equipment to the mains supply.
Defrosting of the refrigerator
Frost is automatically eliminated from the evaporator of the refrigerator compartment every time the motor compressor stops, dur-
ing normal use. The defrost water drains out through a trough into a special contain­er at the back of the appliance, over the mo­tor compressor, where it evaporates. It is important to periodically clean the de­frost water drain hole in the middle of the re­frigerator compartment channel to prevent the water overflowing and dripping onto the food inside. Use the special cleaner provi­ded, which you will find already inserted in­to the drain hole.
Periods of non-operation
When the appliance is not in use for long pe­riods, take the following precautions:
disconnect the appliance from elec-
tricity supply
• remove all food
• leave the door/doors ajar to prevent un-
