Freezer drawer(s)/ shelf Food for long storage. Bottom drawer for raw meat, poultry, sh. Middle drawer for frozen vegetables, fries. Top drawer for ice cream, frozen fruit, deep frozen pastries. Compartments

• Due to the circulation of cold air in the appliance, the temperature in each part of the appliance is different. Therefore, different types of food should be placed in different places.

• Do not place the food close together as this hinders air circulation. Divide food into several compartments according to the table below:58

• To remove the shelf, lift it rst and then pull it out. To put the shelf back in place, push it into place before lowering. Hold the shelf rmly when removing or replacing it and take care to avoid damage. Cooling food

• Always refer to the expiry date of the products to know how long they can be stored.

• Pack food in resealable plastic bags, especially if it has a strong taste, and place on the glass shelves above the crisper drawer. Store food only one or at most two days in this way.

• Store raw meat and sh in appropriate food containers in the refrigerator so that it does not leak or come into contact with other foods.

• Do not place hot food or hot plastic parts in the appliance. Make sure it has cooled to room temperature before putting it in the appliance.

• Cooked food that has cooled sufciently must be covered and can then be placed on any shelf.

• Do not place foods containing a lot of water too close to the back wall of the refrigerator to prevent them from freezing to the inner wall.

• It is best to clean and dry food before storing it in the appliance. It is advisable to store food in sealed packaging in the appliance. This prevents evaporation of water, which keeps fruit and vegetables fresh and also prevents odours.59

• The freezer compartment is suitable for freezing fresh food and storing frozen food for a long time.

• The maximum amount of food that can be frozen in 24 hours is for this refrigerator: 3.4 kg.

• The freezing process takes 24 hours. Do not add any other food to freeze during this period.

• Only freeze fresh and thoroughly cleaned foods.

• Prepare the food in small portions so that it is quickly frozen completely and can then be thawed in the desired amount.

• Pack the food in aluminium foil or freezer bags and make sure the packets are airtight.

• Do not allow fresh, non-frozen food to come into contact with food that has already been frozen, and prevent the temperature of the food that has already been frozen from rising.

• Lean foods are better and more durable than fatty foods; salt shortens the shelf life of food.

• Ice lollies, if eaten directly from the freezer, can cause frostbite.

• It is advisable to indicate the freezing date on each individual package in order to keep track of the shelf life.

• It is advisable to keep the time between buying the food and putting it in the freezer as short as possible. Storing frozen food On rst use or after a long period of downtime. Run the appliance for at least two hours at the higher positions before putting products in the freezer compartment.60

• The manufacturer’s storage recommendations must be strictly followed. Please refer to the respective instructions.

• Do not keep the door open for too long; this can cause a sharp increase in temperature in the compartments of the appliance.

• Frozen food may not be refrozen after thawing.

• In the case of unexpected thawing, for example if a power failure lasts longer than the value specied in the technical properties under “rise time”, the thawed food must be consumed quickly or prepared immediately and then frozen again (after preparation).

• The most efcient use of energy is ensured in the conguration with the drawers in the lower part of the appliance and with the shelves evenly distributed. The position of the door trays does not affect energy consumption.

• Do not open the door or leave it open more often than necessary.

• Do not set the temperature too high to save energy unless the characteristics of the food require it.

• If the ambient temperature is high, the temperature control is set to a low temperature and the appliance is fully lled, the compressor can be on continuously, causing ice to form on the evaporator. In this case, set the temperature control to a higher temperature to defrost the evaporator and thus save energy.

• Ensure proper ventilation. Do not cover the vents or holes.

• Place frozen food in the fresh food compartment to defrost: the low temperature of the frozen food helps to cool the fresh food and thus saves energy.

• Replace the door gasket in good time to prevent poor door closing.

• Remove the plug from the socket before cleaning. Never touch the plug with wet hands because of the risk of electric shocks and injury.

• Do not spill water directly onto the appliance to prevent rust, leakage and accidents.

• Do not put your hands in the bottom of the fridge as the sharp metal corners can cause scratches.

• Do not use water jets and steam to clean the appliance.

• To prevent damage, do not use a hard brush, steel brush, detergent, soap powder, alkaline detergent, benzene, petrol, acids, chlorine, abrasive powders, hot water or other corrosive or soluble substances to clean the cabinet surface, door gasket or plastic decorative parts.

• Do not use electrical appliances (such as a hairdryer or heater) to defrost your appliance. ATTENTION!
