Safety - a good habit to get into. ATTENTION Read your manual carefully since it contains instructions which will ensure safe installation, use and maintenance of your appliance. Your Refrigerator is built to International safety standards (EN60) ans has been awarded the European approval mark (IMQ) for compliance with UK electrical safety requirements.

Setting up Your Appliance Before storing food in your refrigerator, wipe the interior with a solution of warm water and bicarbonate of soda. After having plugged the appliance into the socket, make sure that the refrigerator light has turned on. Then turn the thermostat knob “A” to setting “3”. After a couple of hours, you can place fresh food in the refrigerator.
How to use the refrigerator compartment... - Air in the refrigerator circulates naturally so that colder, heavier air tends to descend towards the bottom. This is why meat and fish should be stored just above the crisper. - Remember to follow our instructions on the storage life of different foods: If not stored correctly, even the freshest food will deteriorate quite quickly. - Contrary to popular belief, cooked foods do not keep longer than fresh food.
Ice trays This new concept of ice trays is an exclusive Merloni patent. The fact that they are situated on the inner door of the freezer compartment ensures greater ergonomics and cleanliness: the ice no longer comes into contact with the food placed inside the freezer compartment; furthermore, the dripping of the water during filling is avoided (a lid to cover up the hole after filling with water is also provided).

If it is overfilled, this will prevent proper air circulation, forcing the compressor to work continuously.
