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.
Set the thermostat on setting 3. The appliance now cools continuously until the set temperature
has been reached. Do not place anything in the larder 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
larder.
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.

food storage in the appliance
LARDER COMPARTMENT
The larder compartment is used for storing fresh food for a few days.
• Do not place food in direct contact with the rear wall of the larder compartment. Leave some space around the food to allow
the air to circulate.
• Do not place hot food or evaporating liquids in the larder.
• Never introduce volatile, inflammable or explosive fluids such as alcohol, acetone or petrol because of the risk of explosion.
• Always store food in closed containers or wrapped. To reduce humidity and avoid formation of frost, never place liquids in unsealed
containers in the larder.
• Meat of all types, wrapped in packages, is recommended to be placed on the glass shelf just above the vegetable drawer, where the
air is cooler.
• You can put the fruits and vegetables into the vegetable drawer without the packaging.
• To avoid the cold air escaping, try not to open the door too often and not leave the door open for a long time.
