4. USE
Carefully review the safety information (Section 1) before you start using the appliance.
4.1. SETTING THE TEMPERATURE
You can set the temperature of the appliance by turning the thermostat button.
•
The thermostat can be set between 1 and 7.
•
1 is the warmest setting.
•
7 is the coldest setting.
•
The recommended setting is 4.
•
Turn the dial to 0 to turn the appliance off.
The internal temperature of the appliance may vary due to the ambient temperature, the amount of products stored
and the frequency with which the door is opened. Under normal operating conditions we recommend setting the
temperature to 4. In summer, when the ambient temperature is high, we recommend setting the temperature to 5 - 6.
In winter, when the ambient temperature is low, we recommend setting the appliance to 2 - 3.
This appliance is not suitable for freezing food. At the top, you will find an additional cold compartment. This is
where you store products with a temperature of -2 degrees Celsius.
4.2. TIPS FOR DAILY USE
Cooling food
•
Always refer to the expiry date of the products to know how long they can be stored.
•
Pack food in resealable plastic bags, especially if it has a strong taste, and place on the glass shelves above the
crisper drawer. Store food only one or at most two days in this way.
•
Store raw meat and fish in appropriate food containers in the refrigerator so that it does not leak or come into
contact with other foods.
•
Do not place hot food or hot plastic parts in the appliance. Make sure it has cooled to room temperature before
putting it in the appliance.
•
Cooked food that has cooled sufficiently must be covered and can then be placed on any shelf.
•
Do not place foods containing a lot of water too close to the back wall of the refrigerator to prevent them from
freezing to the inner wall.
•
It is best to clean and dry food before storing it in the appliance. It is advisable to store food in sealed
packaging in the appliance. This prevents evaporation of water, which keeps fruit and vegetables fresh and
also prevents odours.
4.3. SAVING ENERGY
•
The most efficient use of energy is ensured in the configuration with the drawers in the lower part of the
appliance and with the shelves evenly distributed. The position of the door trays does not affect energy
consumption.
•
Do not open the door or leave it open more often than necessary.
•
Do not set the temperature too high to save energy unless the characteristics of the food require it.
•
If the ambient temperature is high, the temperature control is set to a low temperature and the appliance is
fully filled, the compressor can be on continuously, causing ice to form on the evaporator. In this case, set the
temperature control to a higher temperature to enable automatic defrosting to save energy.
•
Ensure proper ventilation. Do not cover the vents or holes.
•
Replace the door gasket in good time to prevent poor door closing.
ATTENTION!
!
•
The manufacturer's storage recommendations must be strictly followed. Please refer to the respective instructions.
•
Do not keep the door open for too long; this can cause a sharp increase in temperature in the compartments of
the appliance.
