TECHNICAL FEATURES
FRESHNESS CONTROL
Thanks to freshness control, you can guarantee the right humidity level for vegetables and fruits in the crisper drawer (Fresh drawer). The humidity gets bigger as the rod goes from left to right.
ANTIBACTERIAL SYSTEM (if present)
LED UVA lights activate a Titanium Filter producing a "photocatalysis" reaction which will destroy bacteria within the refrigerator air. This reaction works when the refrigerator door is closed to avoid purified air leakage.
In Total No Frost products, it is inserted in the sky box and it works every time the compressor works. The filter is permanent and therefore does not need changing.
The antibacterial system has to be turned off during the energy consumption test.
WATER DISPENSER
The water dispenser allows you to get chilled water without opening the fridge compartment door.
Before first use
Before using the water dispenser for the first time, remove and clean the water tank located inside the fridge compartment.
- Lift the water tank out of the fridge compartment.
- Open the water tank cover and then clean the water tank and cover in warm soapy water. Rinse thoroughly.
- After cleaning, attach the cover to the water tank and then replace the water tank back on the fridge door.
- Clean the dispenser pad outside the fridge door.
Filling the water tank with water
- Open the small cover.
- Fill the water tank with drinkable water up to the Max line.
- Close the small cover.
Dispensing
To dispense water, push the dispenser pad gently, using a glass or container. To stop the flow of water, pull your glass away from the dispenser pad.
Tips for keeping food perfect in the Fridge
Take extra care with meat and fish: cooked meats should always be stored on a shelf above raw meats to avoid bacterial transfer. Keep raw meats on a plate which is large enough to collect juices and cover it with cling film or foil.
Leave space around food: this allows cold air to circulate around the Fridge, ensuring all parts of the Fridge are kept cool.
Wrap up food!: to prevent transfer of flavors and drying out, food should be separately packed or covered. Fruit and vegetables need not be wrapped.
Pre-cooked food should be cooled properly: allow pre-cooked food to cool down before placing in the Fridge. This will help to stop the internal temperature of the Fridge from rising.
Shut the door! to prevent cold air escaping, try to limit the number of times you open the door. When returning from shopping, sort foods to be kept in your Fridge before opening the door. Only open the door to put food in or take it out.
Where to store your foods in the fridge
Cool area: this is where to store foods which will keep longer if they are kept cool. Milk, eggs, yogurt, fruit juices, hard cheeses e.g. Cheddar. Opened jars and bottles of salad dressings, sauces and jams. Fats, e.g. Butter, margarine, low-fat spreads, cooking fats and lard.
Coldest area (0°C to 5°C): this is where foods which must be cold to keep them safe should be kept:
- Raw and uncooked foods should always be wrapped. -Pre-cooked chilled foods, e.g. Ready meals, meat pies, soft cheeses. -Pre-cooked meats e.g. Ham,
- Prepared salads (including pre-packed mixed green salads, rice, potato salad, etc.). Desserts, e.g., fromage frais, home-prepared food and leftovers or cream cakes.
Crisper: this is the most humid part of the fridge. Vegetables, fruit, fresh salad items, e.g., unwashed whole lettuce, whole tomatoes, radishes, etc., can be stored here.
WE RECOMMEND THAT ALL PRODUCE KEPT IN THE SALAD BIN IS WRAPPED.
NOTE: Always wrap and store raw meat, poultry and fish on the lowest shelf at the bottom of the fridge. This will stop them dripping onto, or touching other foods. Do not store inflammable gases or liquids in the fridge.
Electrical operation: after 3 hours on the freezer, the temperature in the cabinet is above -12°C, the alarm light is lit, and buzzer sounds.
Storing Frozen Food
Prepackaged commercially frozen food should be stored in accordance with the frozen food manufacturer's instructions for a freezer compartment.
To ensure that the high quality achieved by the frozen food manufacturer and the food retailer is maintained, the following should be remembered:
- Put packets in the freezer as quickly as possible after purchase.
- Do not exceed "Use By" or "Best Before" dates on the packaging.
| DO | DON'T |
| Defrost food from the freezer thoroughly in a fridge or in a microwave oven following defrosting and cooking instructions. | Use pointed sharped objects such as knives, forks to remove the ice. |
| Defrost frozen meat completely before cooking. | Put hot food in the freezer. Let it cool down first. |
| Store commercially frozen food in accordance with the instructions given on the packets that you buy. | Put liquid-filled bottles or sealed cans containing carbonated liquids into the freezer as they may burst |
| Check contents of the refrigerator at regular intervals. | Remove items from the freezer with wet hands. |
| Clean and defrost your refrigerator regularly. | Freeze zzy drinks. |
| Prepare fresh food for freezing in small porons to ensure rapid freezing. | Consume ice-cream and water ices direct from freezer. It may cause “freezer burns” on lips. |
| Always choose high quality fresh food and be sure it is thoroughly clean before you freeze it. | Store poisonous or dangerous substances in the freezer. |
| Wrap all foods in aluminum foil or freezer quality plasc bags and make sure any air is excluded. | |
| Wrap frozen food when you buy it and put it into the freezer shortly. | |
| Keep food for as short a me as possible and adhere to “Best Before”, “Use By” dates. | |

ENERGY SAVING
For better energy saving, we suggest:
- Installing the appliance away from heat sources, not exposed to direct sunlight, and in a well-ventilated room.
- Avoid putting hot food into the refrigerator to avoid increasing the internal temperature and therefore causing continuous functioning of the compressor.
- Do not overstuff foods so as to ensure proper air circulation.
- Defrost the appliance in case there is ice to facilitate the transfer of cold.
- In case of absence of electrical energy, it is advisable to keep the refrigerator door closed.
- Open or keep the doors of the appliance open as little as possible.
- Avoid adjusting the setting to temperatures too cold.
- Remove dust present on the rear of the appliance.
TAKE CARE
Defrosting
This appliance has automatic defrosting system, no need to defrost by hand.
Cleaning and Care
After defrosting you should clean the Fridge/Freezer internally with a weak solution of bicarbonate of soda. Then rinse with warm water using a damp sponge or cloth and wipe dry. Wash the baskets in warm soapy water and ensure they are completely dry before replacing in the Fridge/Freezer. Condensation will form on the back wall of the Fridge; however it will normally run down the back wall and into the drain hole behind the salad bin.
The drain hole will have a "cleaning spike" inserted into it. This ensures that small pieces of food cannot enter the drain. After you have cleaned the inside of your Fridge and removed any food residues from around the hole, use the "cleaning spike" to make sure that there are no blockages. Use standard furniture polish to clean the Fridge/Freezer exterior. Make sure that the doors are closed to prevent polish getting on the magnetic door seal or inside.
The grille of the condenser at the back of the Fridge/Freezer and the adjacent components can be vacuumed using a soft brush attachment.
Do not use harsh cleaners, scouring pads or solvents to clean any part of the Fridge/Freezer.
CHANGING THE INTERNAL LIGHT
- Before carrying out the LED replacement, always disconnect the mains supply.
- Hold and lift up the LED light cover.
- Remove the old LED by unscrewing it in an anticlockwise direction.
- Replace with a new LED light by screwing it in a clockwise direction, making sure that it is secure in the light holder.
- Refit the light cover and reconnect your fridge to the mains supply and switch on.
