Tip: Food in the fridge should always be covered or packaged, to pre-
vent drying and tainting of other food.
The following are suited for packaging:
– Polyethylene airtight bags and wraps;
– Plastic containers with lids;
– Special plastic covers with elastic;
– aluminium foil.
Defrosting
The fridge defrosts automatically
The rear wall of the fridge covers with frost when the compressor is
running, and defrosts when the compressor is off. The water from the
thawing frost evaporates by itself.
Switching off the appliance
To switch off the appliance, turn the temperature regulator to position
"0".
If the appliance is not going to be used for an extended period:
Remove all refrigerated packages.
Switch off the appliance by turning the temperature regulator to

Clean thoroughly (see section: “Cleaning and Care”).
Leave the door open to avoid the build up of odours.
