appliance shall not be discarded
together with the urban refuse and

DAILY USE

2.1 

Before first use

Before using the appliance for the first
time, wash the interior and all internal ac-
cessories with lukewarm water and some
neutral soap so as to remove the typical
smell of a brand-new product, then dry
thoroughly.

Do not use detergents or abrasive
powders, as these will damage
the finish.

2.2 

Switching on

Insert the plug into the wall socket.
Turn the Temperature regulator clockwise
to a medium setting.

2.3 

Switching off

To turn off the appliance, turn the Tem-
perature regulator to the "O" position.

2.4 

Temperature regulation

The temperature is automatically regula-
ted.
To operate the appliance, proceed as fol-
lows:
• turn the Temperature regulator toward

lower settings to obtain the minimum
coldness.

• turn the Temperature regulator toward

higher settings to obtain the maximum
coldness.

A medium setting is generally the
most suitable.

However, the exact setting should be
chosen keeping in mind that the tempera-
ture inside the appliance depends on:
• room temperature
• how often the door is opened
• the quantity of food stored
• the location of the appliance.

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 tem-
perature to allow automatic de-
frosting and therefore reduced en-
ergy consumption.

2.5 

Freezing fresh food

The freezer compartment is suitable for
freezing fresh food and storing frozen and
deep-frozen food for a long time.
To freeze fresh foods it is not necessary
to change the medium setting.
However, for a faster freezing operation,
turn the temperature regulator toward
higher settings to obtain the maximum
coldness.
