How to Start the Appliance
NOTICE
After the appliance has been delivered, stand it in the
upright position and wait approximately 3 hours be-
fore connecting it to the electrical outlet to guarantee
that it operates properly.
How to use the refrigerator compartment...
The thermostat automatically regulates the temperature in-
side the appliance
1 = less cold
5 = colder
It is recommended that a medium setting be used.
To increase the amount of space, optimize arrangement and
improve appearance, this appliance has a "cooling area"
located within the back panel of the refrigerator compart-
ment. When the appliance is operating, this panel may be
covered with frost or droplets of water depending on
whether the compressor is operating or not at a given time.
Do not be concerned about this! The refrigerator is operat-
ing normally.
If the thermostat knob is positioned on higher settings while
the refrigerator is heavily filled and the ambient tempera-
ture high, the appliance may run continuously, resulting in
the formation of frost on the back cooling area. This will
lead to an increase in energy consumption.
To avoid this situation, just turn the thermostat knob
to a lower setting so that the appliance defrosts auto-
matically.
The refrigerator compartment of your appliance is equipped
with "A.I.R. System" (Ariston Integrated Refrigeration) which
makes it possible to achieve optimal food storage while
simplifying the use of the refrigerator thanks to the following
features:
- Fast temperature reset: after the doors heve been opened,
the internal temperatures return to optimal values faster,
improving food storage.
- More uniform temperature distribution: this makes it
possible to place any type of food on any shelf.
- Higher humidity level: this allows you to store food longer.

Before placing foodstuffs in the refrigerator or freezer, clean
the interior well with warm water and baking soda.
After putting the plug in the socket, make sure that the
light is on inside the appliance and then turn the thermostat
knob (A) to the "3" setting. After a few hours have passed,
you can place fresh food in the refrigerator compartment
and frozen foods into the freezer.
- Please follow our instructions carefully on maximum stor-
age time: any food, even the freshest, will not remain edible
for any extended amount of time.
- Contrary to popular belief, cooked foods do not store any
longer than raw food.
- Do not place liquids in containers without covering them
because this will lead to an increase in the level of moisture
within the refrigerator, causing the formation of frost.
- Be careful not to place containers (plastic or glass), food or
other objects in direct contact with the cooling area of the
back wall of the refrigerator. This could harm the food, in-
crease energy consumption and facilitate the formation of
condensate (on food, containers, etc.).
- The refrigerator compartment is equipped with conven-
ient, removable shelves (Fig. 1) which can be adjusted for
height using the shelf guides. This allows you to place even
large containers and foodstuffs in the refrigerator.
- The door accessories are designed to offer easy use and
flexibility. The easy to remove door shelves make cleaning
simple.
The 2 shelves "B" situated at the top of the refrigerator can
be used for storage of small food products such as soup
cubes, mayonnaise tunes, anchovy paste, preserves, etc.
- The top salad crispers, which are colder than the bottom
one, are more suited to the preservation of delicate fruits
and vegetables such as: grapes, strawberries, figs, cherries,
fruits of the forest, mushrooms, asparagus, red tomatoes,
artichokes etc.; whereas the bottom crisper is ideal for storing
pineapples, avocados, citrons, lemons etc.
To use the meat/cheese box, unhook it and remove it from
the shelf. To optimise space according to your needs, the
same can be moved laterally (Fig. 2).
