USING THE ICE AND WATER DISPENSER (if available) First use When the ice and water dispenser is used for the first time, the first ice cubes and water coming out of the dispenser may have an unpleasant taste and should therefore be discarded.

To dispense ice: To obtain ice press against the ice dispenser lever.

STORING, FREEZING AND THAWING FOOD Wrap food so that no water, moisture or condensate can enter; this will prevent odours or aromas going from one part to another in the refrigerator, ensuring better preservation of frozen foods. NOTE: Never place hot food in the freezer. Cooling hot foods before freezing saves energy and prolongs the life of the appliance.

If there is water in the defrost pan: • This is normal in hot and humid weather. The pan can even be half full. Make sure the refrigerator is level so that water does not spill from the pan. If the appliance temperature is too high: • Are the appliance controls correctly adjusted? • Has a large amount of food been placed in the appliance? • Make sure the air ducts inside the compartment are not blocked and thus preventing the circulation of cold air.
