OPERATION

Before use

Remove all securing tapes. Wash inside the appliance with lukewarm water and bicarbonate of soda (5 ml to 0.5 litre of water). Do not use soap or detergent as the smell may linger. Dry thoroughly.

Setting the temperature

The temperature inside the refrigerator and the

-star compartment is regulated by a thermostat with 6 temperature positions and one «OFF» (O) position.

Position 1 = minimum coldness Position 6 = maximum coldness

Turn the thermostat dial to the required position.

An intermediate position is usually the most suitable, although the temperature will be affected by:

•Room temperature

•How often the door is opened

•How much food is stored

•Position of the appliance

In determining the correct temperature control setting all these factors have to be considered and some experimentation may be necessary.

When altering the temperature setting, allow 24 hours for the temperature to stablise before making further changes.

Important
The temperature inside the refrigerator and
	-star compartment can be regulated by
adjusting the conveyor located under the			-
star compartment.
To obtain a lower temperature in the		-star
compartment when frozen food is stored inside
and when the ambient temperature is 25°C or
lower slightly raise the conveyor (A) and push it
all the way in. When frozen food is not stored in
the	-star compartment and when the
ambient temperature is higher than 25°C return
the conveyor to its initial position. This reduces				D182
the temperature in the refrigerator compart-
ment.

A

The -star compartment

This compartment is suitable for the storage of commercially frozen food and for ice cube making.

Frozen food storage

Storing ready-frozen foods is quite straightforward. The packs can be placed beside each other or on top of each other.

You are strongly advised to place ready-frozen food in the compartment as quickly as possible after purchase. Also ensure that the external packaging is intact.

Packaging which is swollen or has traces of refrozen water droplets on the pack could indicate that the product has not been kept at a suitable temperature and that it may have lost its original quality.

Partially thawed food must not be refrozen, it must be consumed within 24 hours.

Never exceed the storage times indicated.

Do not open the -star compartment door too often and do not leave open longer than necessary.

Important

In the event of a power cut the food in the -star compartment will not be affected if

the power cut is short and if the compartment is full. Do not open the door. Should the food begin to thaw, it must be consumed quickly and must not be refrozen.
