Start-up and use
Starting the appliance
! Before starting the appliance, follow the installation
instructions (see Installation).
! Before connecting the appliance, clean the
compartments and accessories well with lukewarm
water and bicarbonate.
1. Insert the plug into the socket and ensure that the
internal light illuminates.
2. Turn the TEMPERATURE ADJUSTMENT knob to an
average value. After a few hours you will be able to
put food in the refrigerator.
Using the refrigerator to its full potential
The temperature inside the refrigerator compartment
automatically adjusts itself according to the position of
the thermostat knob.
11111 = warmest 55555 = coldest
We recommend, however, a medium position.
The cooling section of the refrigerator is located inside
the back wall of the refrigerator compartment for
increased space and improved aesthetics. During
operation, the back wall will be covered in frost or water
droplets depending on whether the compressor is
operating or paused. Do not worry, the refrigerator is
functioning normally.
Chiller system
A.I.R. SYSTEM (Ariston Integrated Refrigeration)
A
A
B B B
It is recognizable due to the presence of the mechanism
on the top part of the refrigerator compartment (
see
diagram). The A.I.R. System maintains a constant fridge
temperature to keep food fresher for longer and will
quickly restore the temperature to the correct level, even
if the door is opened frequently: the blown air (A) is
cooled when it comes into contact with the cold wall,
whereas the hotter air (B) is sucked up (
see diagram).
*
Available only on certain models.
Using the refrigerator to its full potential
• Place only cold or lukewarm foods in the
compartment, not hot foods ( see Precautions and
tips).
• Remember that cooked foods do not last longer than
raw foods.
• Do not store liquids in open containers. They will
increase humidity in the refrigerator and cause
condensation to form.
SHELVES: with or without grill.
Due to the special guides the
shelves are removable and the
height is adjustable (
see
diagram), allowing easy storage
of large containers and food.
Height can be adjusted without
complete removal of the shelf.
MULTI-USE * bin: to store food (such as cold meats)
for a long time and also prevent odours from lingering
in the refrigerator.
BOTTLE RACK/ CAN RACK
*
flap door: to store a
bottle or several cans horizontally ( see diagram).
When not in use, close the flap door to increase the
space in the refrigerator compartment.

WINE AREA

: to store up to
three bottles of wine ( see
diagram). The air circulates
freely between the bottles
guaranteeing rapid cooling.
When not in use, close it to
increase the space on the shelf.
