apply, but a third type of plug and socket is also used, the

pin, side earth type. In this case, the wire which is coloured

GREEN AND YELLOW must be connected to the EARTH con-

tact, and the other

two

wires to the pins, irrespective of colour.

The supply to the socket must be fitted with a

amp fuse.

With the appliance plugged in, the interior light should come

on when the door is opened.After adjustment of the tempera-

ture, as indicated in the next chapter, the refrigerator is ready

for use.

ADJUSTMENT OF THE TEMPERATURE

The thermostat (see figure) controls the temperature inside

the appliance. Position

means that the operation of the ap-

pliance is interrupted (the interior light is off).

To obtain the best storage of foods, we suggest you adjust

the thermostat control knob to position

To obtain colder

temperatures in the compartment, set the thermostat control

knob to the higher settings.

the temperature in the com-

partment is too cold, turn the thermostat control knob to the

lower setting (position

1).

Internal temperatures are affected by the location of the ap-

pliance, the temperature of the surrounding air, the frequency

of door opening. The setting of the thermostat may have to

be varied to allow for these factors. Experience will help you

in finding the position best suited to your needs.

USE

THE REFRIGERATOR COMPARTMENT

(Fig.

The temperature inside the

Lxxxl

compartment differs depen-

dent on the section. The coldest section is immediately above

the glass separator and near the rear wall.

All items stored in the refrigerator compartment should be

wrapped in aluminium or plastic sheetings or kept in a cover-

ed container. This prevents food from becoming dry on the sur-

face and stops strong smells and flavours being passed from

one food to another.

The space inside the refrigerator may be organised moving the

grids dependent on you needs.

Different foods are best stored in the following positions:

Cooked foods, cheese:

use the top grids.

Meat, fish, sausages, etc.:

these should be stored above the

glass separator.

Fruits and vegetables:

these should be stored in the crisper.

Beverages:

use the rack of the refrigerator door.

Butter:

store in the special compartment of the refrigerator door.

In some models it is possible to adjust the temperature of this

compartment by means of the slot provided; in position

the

butter can be easily spread.

Canned

food:.once the can has been opened, transfer un-

used food into

non-metallic container.

Important:

Do not place foodstuffs or containers

that they

do not allow free circulation of air, or against the rear wall.

Do not cover the grids with paper or plastic. Allow cooked

food to cool before storing in the refrigerator compartment.

USE

THE LOW TEMPERATURE

COMF'.ARTMEMT

(Fig.

(if provided)

Your low temperature compartment (marked

Lxxxl)

is for

freezing-in small quantities of foods, producing ice cubes and

storing frozen foods.

FREEZING-IN

In the

Lxxxl

compartment the temperature of

-18°C

allows

the freezing-in

of a maximum quantity of

1,5

kg of foods

h period.

During freezing-in, we suggest you turn the thermostat con-

trol knob to position 2-3.

Wrap foods to be frozen in aluminium foils or polythene films

and label each packet indicating the type of food and the

freezing-in date.

Please make sure that already frozen foods do not come in

contact with fresh foods to be frozen.

not store warm foods in the low temperature compartment.

not re-freeze thawed or partially thawed foods, but

use them up within

hours or re-freeze after cooking.

not store liquids in glass containers.

PRODUCTION OF ICE CUBES

3/4 fill the ice cube trays, and store in the low temperature

Compartment. If the tray sticks to the compartment, do not try

to detach it with sharp or cutting instruments, which could

damage the appliance, but use the handle of a spoon.

Attenion:

Do not eat ice cubes or ice lollies immediately after

their removal from the low temperature compartment, as they

may cause cold burns.

STORAGE OF FROZEN FOODS

When buying commercially frozen foods, make sure that

wrapper or packets is intact.

bulges or sags or has spots of

moisture on it, it may not have been kept cold enough and

the contents may have lost their original quality. When home,

store commercially frozen foods in the low temperature com-

partment

Lxxxl,

with the least possible delay, as any apprecia-

ble rise in temperature may alterate their freshness.

Store commercially frozen foods no longer than the packet in-

structions recommend.

THAWING

Hera are some basic suggestions:

Raw vegetables:

do not thaw, put straight into boiling water

and cook as usually.

Meat (large cuts):

thaw in the refrigerator compartment

without unwrapping them. Before cooking, leave at room

temperature for some hours, or defrost using your microwave.

Please follow the Manufacturer's recommendations.

(small cuts):

thaw at room temperature or cook directly.

Fish:

thaw in the refrigerator compartment without unwrap-

ping or cook directly before being completely thawed.

Previously cooked foods:

pre-heat in the oven without re-

moving from its aluminium container.

Fruit:

thaw in the refrigerator compartment.

DEFROSTING

your appliance is not provided with a

Lxxxl

compartment,

defrosting is automatic. During the defrost cycle some water

droplets fall down the rear wall of the liner. The defrost water

collected into a tray situated on the compressor casing,

where it evaporates.

your appliance

provided with a

ywnn)

compartment, to

keep energy consumption low, we suggest you periodically

sera-

off

the ice from the walls. Never use poined or sharp objects.

We recommend you defrost the appliance once or twice a

year, when the layer of frost reaches a 3mm thickness

(Fig.

8).

To defrost the appliance, operate as follows:

Disconnect it from the mains supply

(Fig.

9);

Remove all foods from the

Lxxxl

compartment.

Turn the thermostat control knob to position

Dry the defrost water with a sponge or with a cloth

(Fig.
