Starting up and temperature regulation
Wash the inside of the appliance with lukewarm water with a little bicar-
bonate of soda added (5ml to 0,5 litre of water). Do not use soap or deter-
gent as the smell may linger. Dry the appliance thoroughly.
• When the refrigerator compartment door is opened, the internal lighting
is switched on. The temperature control knob is located on the right hand
side of the refrigerator compartment.
B
Setting “0”: Off.
Setting “1”: Hightest temperature, (warmest setting).
Setting “6” (end-stop) : Lowest temperature, (coldest setting).
D726
The exact setting should be chosen keeping in mind that the temperature
inside the refrigerator depends on:
-the quantity of food stored
-how often the door is opened
The temperatures in the refrigerator compartment and freezer compart-
ment cannot be independently regulated.
Separate parts A, B, C, D as shown in
the figure
B
A
If you want to freeze fresh food rapidly, select setting “6”, ensuring that the
temperature in the refrigerator compartment does not drop below 0°C. You
should reset the temperature control knob to setting “3” or “4”, if this does
occur.
As soon as the fresh food placed in the freezer has frozen, return the tem-
perature control knob to “3” or “4”.
Important!
C
D
High ambient temperatures (e.g. on hot summer days) and a cold setting on
the temperature regulator (position"5" to "6") can cause the compressor to
run continuously.
PR266
If this happens, turn the temperature regulator back to a warmer setting
(position "3" to "4"). At this setting the compressor will be switched on and
off as usual and automatic defrosting recommenced.
Place guide (A) on the inside part of
the furniture door, in the upper and
lower positions as shown in the fig-
ure and mark the position of external
holes. Having drilled the holes, fix the

warmth. High ambient temperatures cause longer, more frequent opera-
tion of the compressor.
• Ensure sufficient air circulation at the appliance base and at the back wall
of the appliance. Never cover air vent openings.
• Do not place warm foods into the appliance. Allow warm foods to cool
first.
