Foldable half shelf

The half shelf allows to have more storage space. Push the shelf towards the back of the appliance to slide it under the other shelf. Pull the shelf back towards you to return it to its original position.

Fresh dial

If the crisper is full, the fresh dial located in front of the crisper should be opened. This allows the air to go into the crisper and the humidity rate to be controlled, in order to increase the life of food within.

Fresh zone

Storing food in the Fresh zone compartment of the refrigerator helps to prolong the freshness and flavor of the food. The Fresh zone is generally used to store fresh foods such as raw fish or meat.

Note: Do not put the food you want to freeze or the ice cube trays in the refrigerator compartment.

Ultra Fresh

Ultra Fresh technology helps to remove ethylene gas (a bioproduct released naturally from fresh foods) and unpleasant odors from the crisper. In this way, food stays fresh for a longer time.

• Ultra Fresh Preserver must be cleaned once a year. The filter should be cleaned during 2 hours at 65^ in a oven.
• To clean the filter, remove the back cover of the filter box by pulling it in the direction of the arrow.

Remark

- Do not fill the ice cube compartment with water to make ice cubes, as this may break it

Hints and Tips

• The refrigerator is a domestic appliance suited to short-term conservation of food products like fruit, vegetables, drinks, etc.
• Do not use it as a specialised appliance for storing products that require storage in line with strict temperature rules, like medicines, etc.
  • Cooked foods must be cooled to ambient temperature before they are placed in the refrigerator.
  • We recommend placing food in sealed containers before storing them in the fridge.
  • Never place food right next to the air outlet as this could impede the airflow and freeze the food.
• Never place volatile, inflammable or explosive liquids like solvents, alcohol, acetone or petrol in the fridge. There is an explosion hazard.
• Never leave the door open longer than necessary.

Hints for refrigeration

• Meat (all types) must be wrapped in sealed polyethylene bags and placed on the glass shelf above the crisper.
  • For safety, store in this way only one or two days at the most.
  • Cooked foods, cold dishes, etc.: these should be covered and may be placed on any shelf.
• Fruit and vegetables: these should be thoroughly cleaned and placed in the special drawer provided.
• Butter and cheese should be placed in special sealed containers, wrapped in aluminium foil or placed in a sealed bag.
• Milk bottles should be capped and stored in the bottle rack in the door.
• To save energy, all of the door shelves and glass shelves should be fitted in their designed location.

Ice cubes

This appliance can accept one or more ice cube trays for making ice cubes.

Freezing tips

To help you optimise the freezing process, here are some important tips:

• The maximum amount of food that you can freeze every 24 hours can be found on the ID plate.
• The freezing process takes 24 hours. Do not add any more food to freeze during this time.
• Only freeze good quality, fresh and properly washed food.
• Prepare food in small portions to enable it to be rapidly and completely frozen and to make it possible to subsequently thaw only the quantity required.
• Wrap up the food in aluminium foil or polyethylene food wraps which are airtight.
• Do not allow fresh, unfrozen food to touch the food which is already frozen to avoid raising their temperature.
• Iced products, if consumed immediately after removal from the freezer compartment, may cause frost burns to the skin.
  • We recommend labelling and dating each frozen package.
• To obtain ice cubes faster, we recommend placing the ice cube trays in the top drawer.

Thawing food

Before eating, frozen or deep frozen food may be thawed in the refrigerator compartment or at ambient temperature, depending on the time available.

Some food may also be cooked directly when taken out of the freezer, while it is still frozen. In this case, cooking will take longer.

Important: In the event of accidental thawing, caused for example by a power break, quickly eat the thawed food. Never refreeze thawed food.

Warning! No thawed food may be replaced in the freezer. Place it in the refrigerator then eat it quickly.

Refreezing a thawed product encourages the spread of bacteria. This may become a health hazard if the bacteria that spreads are pathogens, as these may cause more or less serious food poisoning depending on the type of bacteria involved. If any doubt, cook the food involved.

Hints for the storage of frozen food

To guarantee optimum performance, comply with the following instructions:

• Ensure that frozen food has been stored correctly by the food retailer.
• Ensure that frozen food is quickly carried from the retailer to your freezer.
• Do not open the door too often or avoid leaving the door open longer than necessary.
• Once thawed, food will deteriorate rapidly and should never be refrozen.
• Do not exceed the storage states shown on the food.

Warning! Always unplug your appliance before any maintenance work. Never pull on the power cord, but only on the plug itself.

Cleaning

For hygiene reasons, regularly clean the appliance (sidewalls and interior and exterior accessories).

Important! Ethereal oils and organic solvents can damage plastic parts, e.g. lemon juice, butyric acid or acetic acid.

• Do not allow such substances to come into contact with appliance parts.
• Do not use any abrasive cleansers.
• Remove food from the appliance. Store it in a cool place and keep well covered.
• Clean the appliance and the interior accessories with a cloth and lukewarm water with a diluted white vinegar or bicarbonate of soda solution. Do not wash the accessories in a dishwasher.
  • After cleaning them, rinse surfaces with clear water and dry them.
  • After everything is dry, plug the appliance back into the plug.
  • Make sure that no water enters the lamp housing and other electrical components.
• Clean the condenser with a brush at least twice a year. This will help you to save energy costs and increase productivity.

① Never clean the appliance with a steam cleaner.

Cleaning the drain

To stop the defrost water from running into the refrigerator, clean the drain at the back of the refrigerator part from time to time. To do this, use a cleaning product as shown in the diagram on the right.
