The KLOE-2 experiment at the Frascati National Laboratory of the INFN is undergoing commissioning, together with the e+e− collider DAΦNE. The KLOE apparatus, consisting of a huge Drift Chamber and an Electromagnetic Colorimeter working in a 0.5 T axial magnetic field, has been upgraded with the insertion of an Inner Tracker, two low-angle calorimeters (CCALT and QCALT) and low-angle taggers (LET and HET) for γγ–physics. Cosmic-ray muon and collision data are being acquired in order to optimize the sub-detectors operation in view of the new data taking campaign. The first results from the ongoing commissioning of the KLOE-2 detector will be shown.
