INSTALLATION OF THE TEMPERATURE INDICATOR

Coldest zone: - You will get a better preservation of your food if you place them in the cold zone best suited to their nature. - The symbol below indicates the location of the coldest area of your refrigerator. - This zone is delimited at the top by the low temperature compartment and at the bottom by the symbol or by the shelf positioned at the same height. - In order to guarantee the temperatures in the coldest zone, take care not to modify the positioning of this shelf. To help you adjust your refrigerator, it is equipped with a temperature indicator that will control the average temperature in the coldest area.

This indicator is intended to work only with your refrigerator, be careful not to use it in another refrigerator (in fact, the colder zone is not the same), or for another use.EN-32 CHECKING THE TEMPERATURE IN THE MOST COLD AREA Once the temperature indicator has been installed, you can check regularly that the temperature of the coldest zone is correct, and, if necessary, adjust the thermostat accordingly as indicated above. For proper storage of food in your refrigerator and particularly in the coldest area, make sure that the temperature indicator reads "OK". If "OK" does not appear, the average temperature of the zone is too high. Set the thermostat to a higher position. Whenever you change the thermostat, wait for the temperature inside the device to stabilize before proceeding to a new setting if necessary. Do not change the position of Thermostat gradually and wait at least 12 hours before proceeding to a new check and a possible modification. NOTES: After loading the appliance with fresh food or after repeated opening (or extended opening) of the door, it is normal that the word "OK" does not appear in the temperature indicator. Wait at least 12 hours before readjusting the thermostat. OKTips - Energy Savings - how to arrange the drawers, bins and shelves so that the energy is used as rationally as possible by the apparatus. - Install the unit in a cool, dry, properly ventilated room. - Be careful not to expose the unit to direct sunlight or place it near a direct source of heat (for example, near a radiator). - Never block the ventilation openings or grilles of the appliance. - Allow food to cool before placing in the appliance. - Place the frozen products in the refrigerator to thaw them. - The low temperature of the frozen products will help cool the food in the refrigerator. - Defrost the freezer when the ice has accumulated. A thick layer of ice can affect the transfer of cold to frozen products and increase the energy consumption of the unit. - Do not leave the appliance doors open for too long when storing or removing food from the appliance. The ice will form all the less in the freezer as you leave the door open for as short a time as possible. - When you freeze food or want to store it in the freezer, place it directly in the upper freezer compartment.
