how to operate the appliance
THERMOSTAT SETTING
The thermostat automatically regulates the inside temperature of the compartments. By rotating
the knob from position 1 to 5, colder temperatures can be obtained. Note: rotating the knob
beyond position 1 to "�" will stop the appliance.
FREEZER AND REFRIGERATOR THERMOSTAT SETTING
1-2:
for short-term storage of food in the freezer compartment, you can set the knob
between the minimum and medium position.
3-4:
for long-term storage of food in the freezer compartment, you can set the knob to the
medium position.
5:
for freezing fresh food. The appliance will run for colder temperatures.
Set the thermostat on setting 3. The appliance now cools continuously until the set temperature has been reached. Do not place
anything in the refrigerator until the set temperature is reached. This usually takes 2 or 3 hours. Then set the thermostat at the desired
setting and place food into the refrigerator.
FOR A + MODELS
The freezer compartment, marked with the
allows the making of ice cubes.
Attention:
The ambient air temperature, how often the door is opened and the position of the appliance can affect the internal temperature.
These factors must be taken into account when setting the thermostat.
• Never introduce volatile, inflammable or explosive fluids such as alcohol, acetone or petrol because of the risk of explosion.
• A 5 minute delaying function is applied to prevent damage to the compressor of your appliance, when you take the plug out and
then plug it in again to operate it or when an energy breakdown occurs. Your appliance will start to operate normally after 5 minutes.
ACCESSORIE
Ice tray
• Fill the ice tray with water and place it in the freezer compartment.
• After the water has completely turned into ice, you can twist the tray as shown
below to get the ice cubes out of the tray.
DOOR OPEN INDICATOR
• On the door of the freezer compartment you can find the door open indicator. It indicates whether
you
have closed the door of the freezer compartment properly.
• If the red indicator is visible, the door is still open.
• If the red indicator is invisible, the door is closed properly.
• Observe that the freezer door should always be kept closed properly. This will prevent food inside the
freezer from defrosting; it will avoid heavy ice and frost build-up inside the freezer and an unnecessary
increase in energy consumption.
