HOW TO USE THE REFRIGERATOR COMPARTMENT...

The temperature control automatically regulates the temperature inside the appliance

It is recommended that a medium setting be used.

To increase the amount of space, optimize arrangement and improve appearance, this appliance has a “cooling area” located within the back panel of the refrigerator compart- ment. When the appliance is operating, this panel may be covered with frost or droplets of water depending on whether the compressor is operating or not. Do not be concerned about this! The refrigerator is operating normally.

If the temperature control is positioned on higher settings while the refrigerator is heavily filled and the ambient tem- perature high, the appliance may run continuously, resulting in the formation of frost on the back cooling area. This will lead to an increase in energy consumption.

To avoid this situation, just turn the temperature con- trol to a lower setting so that the appliance defrosts automatically.

What Not to Store in the Refrigerator Garlic (transmits odour), onions and leeks. Bananas (they will turn black).

Citrus fruits.

Potatoes and root vegetables (store in dark, dry places).

- The air circulates naturally, with the colder air falling be- cause it is heavier. This is the reason why meat and cheeses should be placed above the vegetable crisper.

- Please follow our instructions carefully on maximum stor- age time: any food, even the freshest, will not remain edible for any extended amount of time.

-Contrary to popular belief, cooked foods do not store any longer than raw food.

-Do not place liquids in containers without covering them because this will lead to an increase in the level of moisture within the refrigerator, causing the formation of frost.

-Be careful not to place containers (plastic or glass), food or other objects in direct contact with the cooling area of the back wall of the refrigerator. This could harm the food, in- crease energy consumption and facilitate the formation of condensate (on food, containers, etc.).

-The refrigerator compartment is equipped with convenient, removable shelves (Fig. 1) which can be adjusted for height using the shelf guides. This allows you to place even large containers and foodstuffs in the refrigerator.

The side bottle rack can be used either for storing a bottle (Fig. 2) or several cans (2-4) placed horizontally (Fig. 3). If not in use, the bottle/can rack can be tipped up and away to make more room inside the refrigerator.
