3 USING THE APPLIANCE

3.1 Thermostat Setting

The fridge thermostat automatically

be obtained by rotating the knob to higher

numbers, 1 to 5.

Important note: Do not try to rotate

Lamp cover

Thermostat knob

Thermostat Settings

• Set the knob to a low/medium position,

up to 3, for short-term storage of food in

the appliance.

• Set the knob to a medium position, 3 or

4, for long-term storage of food in the

appliance.

• For long-term storage of food in the

refrigerator, you can set knop maximum

position (4 - 5).

3.2 Temperature Settings Warnings

• The ambient temperature, temperature of

the freshly stored food and how often the

door is opened affects the temperature

in the fridge. If required, change the

temperature setting.

• It is not recommended that you operate

your fridge in environments colder than

10°C in terms of its efciency.

• When setting the thermostat, take into

consideration how often the appliance

door is opened and closed, how much

food is stored in the refrigerator, and the

environment in which the refrigerator is

located.

EN - 10

• When the appliance is rst switched on,

allow it to run for 24 hours in order to

reach operating temperature. During this

time, do not open the door and do not

keep a large quantity of food inside.

• Unplug your appliance during a power cut

to prevent damage to the compressor.

Once power is restored, delay plugging

in your appliance for 5 to 10 minutes.

This will help prevent damage to the

appliance's components.

• Your appliance is designed to operate in

the ambient temperature ranges stated

in the standards, according to the climate

class stated in the information label. It

is not recommended that your fridge is

operated in the environments which are

outside of the stated temperature ranges.

This will reduce the cooling efciency of

the appliance.

• Your appliance is designed to operate in

the ambient temperature (T/N = 16°C -

43°C) intervals stated in the standards,

according to the climate class displayed

on the information label. We do not

recommend operating your appliance out

of the stated temperature limits in terms

of cooling effectiveness.

Climate

Class Ambient Temperature oC

TBetween 16 and 43 (°C)

ST Between 16 and 38 (°C)

NBetween 16 and 32 (°C)

SN Between 10 and 32 (°C)

4 FOOD STORAGE

• To reduce humidity and avoid the

consequent formation of frost, always

store liquids in sealed containers in the

refrigerator. Frost tends to concentrate in

the coldest parts of the evaporating liquid

and, in time, your appliance will require

more frequent defrosting.

• Never place warm food in the

refrigerator. Warm food should be

allowed to cool at room temperature

and should be arranged to ensure

adequate air circulation in the refrigerator

compartment.

• Make sure no items are in direct contact

with the rear wall of the appliance as

frost will develop and packaging will stick

to it. Do not open the refrigerator door

frequently.

• We recommend that meat and clean sh

are loosely wrapped and stored on the

glass shelf just above the vegetable bin

where the air is cooler, as this provides

the best storage conditions.

• Store loose fruit and vegetable items in

the crisper containers.

• Store loose fruit and vegetables in the

crisper.

• Storing fruit and vegetables separately

helps prevent ethylene-sensitive

vegetables (green leaves, broccoli,

carrot, etc.) being affected by ethylene-

releaser fruits (banana, peach, apricot,

g etc.).

• Do not put wet vegetables into the

refrigerator.

• Storage time for all food products

depends on the initial quality of the food

and an uninterrupted refrigeration cycle

before refrigerator storage.

• To avoid cross-contamination do not

store meat products with fruit and

vegetables. Water leaking from meat

may contaminate other products in the

refrigerator. You should package meat

products and clean any leakages on the

shelves.
