Hints and Tips, Switching off, Food Storage

·Distribute foodstuffs to allow cold air to circulate freely between the products.

·Do not place food products directly against the cooling plate on the rear wall as they may freeze here.

·Also never put warm products into the appliance. Wait until they have cooled down.

·Cover all foods properly to avoid odours and flavours from tainting other food.

Switching off

Turn the control anti-clockwise past the click position to "H".

Unplug the power supply plug from the wall socket.

Cabinet interior

The shelves and door compartments are removable and can easily be re-arranged.

Certain shelves must be lifted up by the rear edge to enable them to be removed.

The lower door compartment and the glass shelf above the salad drawer must not be moved. They are required for proper air circulation inside the cabinet. Shelves with a raised edge should be placed with the raised edge facing the rear wall of the cabinet, and thus prevent food products from touching the cooling plate.

Hanging half-shelf

The half-shelf can be moved sideways. It can be hung under all door shelves, except the lowest one.
