The position of the humidity control depends on the type and on the amount of fruits and vegetables:
- Slots closed: recommended when there is a small amount of fruits and

vegetables. In this way, the natural moisture content in fruits and vegetables is preserved longer.

- Slots opened: recommended when there is a big amount of fruits and vegetables. In this way, more air circulation results in a lower air moisture.

Use the bottle rack only to store bottles.

distributed. Position of the door bins does not affect energy consumption.

  • Do not open the door frequently or leave it open longer than necessary.
  • Do not set too high temperature to save energy unless it is required by the characteristics of the food.

  • If the ambient temperature is high and the temperature control is set to low temperature and the appliance is fully loaded, the compressor may run continuously, causing frost or ice formation on the evaporator. In this case, set the temperature control toward higher temperature to allow automatic defrosting and to save energy this way.

  • Ensure a good ventilation. Do not cover the ventilation grilles or holes.

6.2 Hints for fresh food refrigeration

  • Good temperature setting that ensures preservation of fresh food is a temperature less than or equal to +4^ .
    Higher temperature setting inside the appliance may lead to shorter shelf life of food.
  • Cover the food with packaging to preserve its freshness and aroma.
    • Always use closed containers for liquids and for food, to avoid flavours or odours in the compartment.
    • To avoid the cross-contamination between cooked and raw food, cover the cooked food and separate it from the raw one.
  • It is recommended to defrost the food inside the fridge.
  • Do not insert hot food inside the appliance. Make sure it has cooled down at room temperature before inserting it.

7. CARE AND CLEANING

ELECTROLUX KRS4DE18S - CARE AND CLEANING - 1

WARNING!

Refer to Safety chapters.

7.1 Cleaning the interior

Before using the appliance for the first time, the interior and all internal accessories should be washed with lukewarm water and some neutral soap to remove the typical smell of a brand-new product, then dried thoroughly.

• To prevent food waste the new stock of food should always be placed behind the old one.

6.3 Hints for food refrigeration

- Fresh food compartment is the one marked (on the rating plate) with

ELECTROLUX KRS4DE18S - Hints for food refrigeration - 1

- Meat (all types): wrap in a suitable packaging and place it on the glass shelf above the vegetable drawer. Store meat for at most 1-2 days.

- Fruit and vegetables: clean thoroughly (eliminate the soil) and place in a special drawer (vegetable drawer).

- It is advisable not to keep the exotic fruits like bananas, mangos, papayas etc. in the refrigerator.

• Vegetables like tomatoes, potatoes, onions, and garlic should not be kept in the refrigerator.

- Butter and cheese: place in an airtight container or wrap in an aluminium foil or a polythene bag to exclude as much air as possible.

- Bottles: close them with a cap and place them on the door bottle shelf, or (if available) on the bottle rack.

- In order to accelerate cooling down of the goods, it is advisable to turn on the fan. The activation of DYNAMICAIR allows greater homogenization of internal temperatures.

• Always refer to the expiry date of the products to know how long to keep them.

ELECTROLUX KRS4DE18S - Hints for food refrigeration - 2

CAUTION!

Do not use detergents, abrasive powders, chlorine or oil-based cleaners as they will damage the finish.

ELECTROLUX KRS4DE18S - CAUTION! - 1

CAUTION!

The accessories and parts of the appliance are not suitable for washing in a dishwasher.

7.2 Periodic cleaning

The equipment has to be cleaned regularly:

7.3 Defrosting of the refrigerator

Frost is automatically eliminated from the evaporator of the refrigerator compartment during normal use. The defrost water drains out through a trough into a special container at the back of the appliance, over the motor compressor, where it evaporates.

It is important to periodically clean the defrost water drain hole in the middle of the refrigerator compartment channel to prevent the water overflowing and dripping onto the food inside.

For this purpose use the tube cleaner provided with the appliance.
