USE OF THE REFRIGERATOR Operation
Turn the thermostat knob (F-Fig. 5) to a setting between 2 and 4, which is usually the most appropriate. However, the exact setting should be chosen keeping in mind that the temperature inside the refrigerator depends on: room temperature; how often the door is opened; the quantity of food stored in the refrigerator; location of appliance. As in the case of the freezer, it might be necessary to turn the knob to higher settings to obtain a lower refrigeration temperature or, vice versa, to lower settings to increase the refrigeration temperature. When the refrigerator is set for the coldest temperatures, with a high ambient temperature, the compressor will probably be in constant operation, with consequent frosting of the back wall of the compartment. If this occurs, the knob should be set to a slightly higher temperature. In this way the refrigerator automatically defrosts, with a considerable energy saving. To stop the fridge, set the thermostat knob to position «O». The freezer will continue to work.

Fresh food refrigeration
To obtain the best performance: do not store warm food or evaporating liquids in the refrigerator; do cover or wrap the food, particularly if it has a strong �avour. Position food so that air can circulate freely round it. Useful hints: Meat (all types): wrap in polythene bags and place on the glass shelf above the vegetable drawer. For safety, store in this way only one or two days at the most. Cooked foods, cold dishes, etc..: these should be covered and may be placed on any shelf. Fruit and vegetables: these should be thoroughly cleaned and placed in the special drawer(s) provided. Butter and cheese: these should be placed in special airtight containers or wrapped in aluminium foil or polythene bags to exclude as much air as possible. Milk bottles: these should have a cap and should be stored in the bottle rack on the door. Bananas, potatoes, onions and garlic, if not packed, must not be kept in the refrigerator.

Air circulation
Your appliance is �tted with a fan inside the refrigerator compartment. To tun it on, press the switch (A-Fig. 6) located on the fan housing; the switch will illuminate. To turn the fan off, press this switch again; the switch light will go out. The appliance can be operated with the fan turned off (switch off/light out); in this case, remember to set the thermostat knob between 4 and 6. It is recommended that the fan be turned on (switch on/illuminated) in the following circumstances: high ambient temperature (above 25°C); to obtain faster cooling (for example after having placed a large quantity of food in the refrigerator; to achieve a uniform temperature throughout the refrigerator compartment. Bear in mind that when the fan is operating, the recommended position for the thermostat knob is between 2 and 4. It is also advisable not to turn the fan on if the temperature inside the compartment is cool enough: this will reduce energy consumption.

Movable shelves
The walls of the refrigerator are equipped with a series of runners so that the shelves can be positioned as desired. For better use of space, the front half-shelves can lie over the rear ones. Fig. 7
