3 USING THE APPLIANCE
3.1 Information about New Generation
Cooling Technology
Fridges with new-generation cooling
technology have a
different operating
system to static
fridges. Other (static)
fridges may
experience a build up
of ice in the freezer
compartment due to
door openings and
humidity in the food.
In such fridges,
regular defrosting is
required; the fridge
must be switched off,
the frozen food moved
to a suitable container
and the ice which has
formed in the freezer
compartment
removed.
In fridges with new-generation cooling
technology, a fan blows dry cold air
evenly throughout the fridge and freezer
compartments. The cold air cools your food
evenly and uniformly, preventing humidity
and ice build-up.
In the refrigerator compartment, air
blown by the fan, located at the top of
the refrigerator compartment, is cooled
while passing through the gap behind
the air duct. At the same time, the air is
blown out through the holes in the air duct,
evenly spreading cool air throughout the
refrigerator compartment.
There is no air passage between the
freezer and refrigerator compartments,
therefore preventing the mixing of odours.
As a result, your fridge, with new-
generation cooling technology, provides
you with ease of use as well as a huge
volume and aesthetic appearance.
3.2 Thermostat Setting
The freezer and refrigerator thermostats
automatically regulate the temperature
inside the compartments. Rotate the
knob to a higher position, from 1 to 5, to
obtain colder temperatures. During cooler
seasons, set the thermostat to lower
positions to reduce energy consumption.

3.3 Temperature Adjustment Warnings
• It is not recommended that you operate
your fridge in environments colder than
10°C in terms of its efciency.
• Temperature adjustments should be
made according to the frequency of door
openings, the quantity of food kept inside
the fridge and the ambient temperature in
the location of your fridge.
• In order to allow your fridge to reach
the operating temperature after being
connected to mains, do not open the
doors frequently or place large quantities
of food in the fridge. Please note that,
depending on the ambient temperature,
it may take 24 hours for your fridge to
reach the operating temperature.
