Control and Use
Control
Temperature Regulator for
Refrigerator:
«A»
Allows to adjust the temperature inside the refrigera-
tor according to use and external conditions.
• Pos. 1 = Minimum cold.
• Pos. 6 = Maximum cold.
• Pos. 0 = Motor disconnected.
Interior light:
Comes on when opening the door of the refrigera-
ting compartment.
When changing the light bulb, first remove the pro-
tective cover «X» after pull out the screw “Y” .
Dinamic Refrigeration (ASP):
Its use is particularly suitable:
• In hot weather (ambient temperature of over 25º)
and when a lot of foodstuffs have just been stored.
• In damp atmospheres (if a lot of frost forms on the
back wall of the refrigerator cabinet or droplets of
water appear on the shelves).
To operate, press the switch.
The ASP Dynamic Refrigeration system improves the
performance of the fridge compartment as can be
seen by:
· Faster cooling
· A more uniform temperature distribution
NOTE: When the ASP is operating on, cold produc-
tion is heightened, so the refrigerator temperature
control must be set to to avoid excessive
cold.
Inner Door Compartments Position
The door compartments can be pulled up and remo-
ved , and inserted at other positions as needed.
Shelves Position
The storage shelves can be adjusted to various
heights.
Vegetable Drawer
The drawer is suitable for storing fruit and
vegetables.
There is a separator inside the drawer that can be
placed in different positions to allow for the
subdivision best suited to personal needs.
The drawer incorporates a device with slits
(adjustable by means of a sliding lever), which
makes it possible to regulate the temperature in the
vegetable drawer(s).
Close the slots to obtain a warmer temperature and
greater humidity.
Open the slots (Pos. ON) to obtain a cooler tempera-
ture and less humidity.

This freezer, is marked , and is suitable
for freezing fresh foodstuffs and keeping food for
long periods.
Freezing of food
1... Place food on the upper grill.
2... Maintain food for at least 24 hours in that posi-
tion.
3... The maximum quantity to be frozen within 24
hours is shown on the «Rating Plate», depending
on the model.
Keeping frozen food
For optimum consevation, the temperature inside the
freezer compartment must be at least -18°C.
This temperature is adjusted automatically.
Check that the «Temperature Control» is in a midd-
le position. Sometimes it may be necessary (insuffi-
cient ventilation, high roon temperature, frequent
opening and closing of the door…) to change the
position of the «Temperature Control».
If the appliance should be accidentally switched off by
a fault or power cut, take the following precautions:
• Keep the doors closed at all times.
• Find out how long the stoppage is expected to last.
Once normal power is restored:
A) If the freezer is full and the stoppage has been
less than «Time for temperature Rise» indicated
for each model in the «Technical Features» sec-
tion, then no damage will have been caused to the
food.
B) If the freezer is not full, the cold will be lost more
quickly. If the food has not started to thaw, then
follow the instructions in «A».
C) If the food has begun to thaw, use them up as
quickly as possible, or cook them and refreeze
them.
Useful Hints
™ Do not introduce any new food during a freezing
period.
™ Do not put any newly introduced food for freezing
near to already frozen food.
™ Wrap the food up properly or place it in hermethic
recipies before introducing it into the freezer.
™ Do not introduce any hot food into the freezer.
™ Food and drinks of a strong flavour may pass this
on to others and affect their flavour. Wrap them up
adequately or put them into tight closing bags.
™ Follow the instructions given in the cook books,
freezing books and wrapping utensiles for better
conservation of food.
Freezer Compartment
This compartment is for storing drinks and fresh food products.
The temperature inside is very evenly distributed. Make sure food does not touch the back wall, since
behind this surface is where the cold is generated and food could bee partially frozen. Also, this can impede the
circulation of cold air.
This appliance is provided with an automatic defrosting system. Consequently you will sometimes notice a thin
layer of ice or drops of water on the rear wall.
Refrigerator Compartment:

ped up in closed bags.
Whenever the thickness of ice reaches 5 mm. the
frost should be removed. Here to proceed as follows:
1... Remove all food staffand place it in the coolest
possible place.
2... Never pull up the sticked ice, you must wait untill
it is melted, when the ice is soft you can remove
it by helping yourself with a plastic ice-scraper,
never use sharp objects, or heating households
because the appliance could be seriusly dama-
ged.
3... Once removed the ice clean and dry the inside
with a soft piece of cloth.
4... You can plug it in again.
