3 USING THE APPLIANCE
3.1 Information about New Generation
Cooling Technology
Fridges with new-generation cooling
technology have a different operating
system to static fridges. Other (static)
fridges may experience a build up of ice
in the freezer compartment due to door
openings and humidity in the food. In such
fridges, regular defrosting is required; the
fridge must be switched off, the frozen
food moved to a suitable container and
the ice which has formed in the freezer
compartment removed.
In fridges with new-generation cooling
technology, a fan blows dry cold air
evenly throughout the fridge and freezer
compartments. The cold air cools your food
evenly and uniformly, preventing humidity
and ice build-up.
In the refrigerator compartment, air
blown by the fan, located at the top of
the refrigerator compartment, is cooled
while passing through the gap behind
the air duct. At the same time, the air is
blown out through the holes in the air duct,
evenly spreading cool air throughout the
refrigerator compartment.
There is no air passage between the
freezer and refrigerator compartments,
therefore preventing the mixing of odours.
As a result, your fridge, with new-
generation cooling technology, provides
you with ease of use as well as a huge
volume and aesthetic appearance.
3.2 Thermostat Setting
The thermostat automatically regulates the
temperature inside the cooler and freezer
compartments. Refrigerator temperatures
can be obtained by rotating the knob
to higher numbers; 1 to 3, 1 to 5 or SF
(Maximum numbers on the thermostat
depends on your product.)
Important note: Do not try to rotate
the knob beyond position 1, it will stop
your appliance from working.

Thermostat settings:
1 – 2 : For short-term storage of food in the
freezer compartment.
3 – 4 : For long-term storage of food in the
freezer compartment.
5 – MAX : For freezing fresh food. The
appliance will work longer. Once the food
is fully frozen, reset the thermostat to its
original position.
3.3 Temperature Settings Warnings
• Your appliance is designed to operate in
the ambient temperature ranges stated
in the standards, according to the climate
class stated in the information label. It
is not recommended that your fridge is
operated in the environments which are
outside of the stated temperature ranges.
This will reduce the cooling efficiency of
the appliance.
• Temperature adjustments should be
made according to the frequency of
door openings, the quantity of food kept
inside the appliance and the ambient
temperature in the location of your
appliance.
• When the appliance is first switched on,
allow it to run for 24 hours in order to
reach operating temperature. During this
time, do not open the door and do not
keep a large quantity of food inside.
• A 5 minute delay function is applied
