Active Smart™ special features (all models) 25 Fruit and vegetable bins and humidity control cover The fruit and vegetable bins feature a unique cover which provides two functions: The humidity cover seals the bins and provides a humid microclimate to extend storage times of fruit and vegetables. The humidity cover prevents condensation, which forms at high humidities, from dripping down onto the fruit and vegetables.
26 Active Smart™ special features (all models) Slim storage drawer (where fitted) The bins at the bottom of the refrigerator provide storage space for items that you may want to keep separate from the rest of the refrigerator. These slim storage bins can be used for deli item storage, beverages or for defrosting foods. Door alarms Fig.
Active Smart™ maintenance (all models) 27 Replacement of the interior light (Halogen light bulb) Turn the power off at the wall socket before replacing the bulb. The light bulb is located on the top roof of the cabinet at the front. Remove the lens cover using a small screwdriver. Insert the screwdriver in the front centre of the lens cover and gently lever down. Pull out old bulb. Do not touch the new bulb with your hand. Leave it in the plastic bag whilst slotting into position.
28 Cleaning and caring for your refrigerator (all models) Exterior Stainless exterior doors (Iridium or EZKleen finishes) It is important when cleaning the exterior door surface of your refrigerator, to only use liquid dishwashing detergent dissolved in warm water and a soft cloth. Dry the door with a clean, lint free cloth. The use of any abrasive or stainless steel cleaners and solvents will damage the door surface.
Cleaning and caring for your refrigerator (all models) 29 Interior It is important to keep the interior of the refrigerator and freezer clean to help prevent food from becoming contaminated during storage. The amount and types of food stored determines how often cleaning should be carried out in the refrigerator (ideally once every 1 to 2 weeks). Remove the shelves from cabinet and door. Wash shelves and storage bins in warm water and detergent; rinse in clean water and dry before replacing.
30 Cleaning and caring for your refrigerator (all models) Humidity Control System Important! When cleaning the shelf above the vegetable bins, we recommend that you do not disassemble the Humidity Control System from the shelf. Retainer In the event that the plastic lid and humidity slides become separated from the glass shelf, follow these instructions to reassemble. 1 2 Turn shelf upside down. To attach humidity slides onto shelf front corners, fit bottom clips into shelf front trim.
Cleaning and caring for your refrigerator (all models) To remove trays or fixed bins For ease of removal, empty food from tray/bin first. Hold the centre front of the tray/bin handle. Lift vertically to unclip from the runners and pull tray/bin towards you to remove. Push both runners back into refrigerator. To replace trays or fixed bins Fig.21 Tray removal With the runners pushed back into the refrigerator, place the tray/bin on top of the runners.
32 Refrigerator sounds (all models) Normal refrigerator sounds Active Smart™ refrigerators, with their excellent energy ratings and cooling performance, can produce sounds somewhat different to your old refrigerator. Normal operational sounds include: Fan air flow sound. Active Smart™ refrigerators have fans which change speed depending on demand.
Storing food in your refrigerator (all models) Red meat Place fresh red meat on a plate and loosely cover with waxed paper, plastic wrap or foil. Store cooked and raw meat on separate plates. This will prevent any juices lost from the raw meat contaminating the cooked product. Delicatessen meats should be used within the recommended storage time. Poultry Fresh whole birds should be rinsed inside and out with cold running water. Dry and place on a plate. Cover loosely with plastic wrap or foil.
34 Storing food in your freezer (all models) The use of temperatures of -18˚C or colder to store food means that the food can be kept for longer periods than when refrigeration temperatures are used. This is because the growth of bacteria, moulds and yeasts are stopped, and chemical and physical reactions are severely restricted at such low temperatures. Frozen food care For best results: Choose only high quality foods that freeze well. Store at -18˚C or colder.
Storing food in your freezer (all models) Meat, poultry and game Do not try to freeze more than 1 kg meat per 25 L of freezer storage volume at any one time. Meat must be frozen quickly in order to maintain its texture. Do not stuff poultry before freezing. Red meat can be cooked from frozen, or from the partly or completely thawed states. Remember to allow extra cooking time if cooking from frozen. Always thaw poultry completely before cooking. Fish and seafood Fish is best frozen commercially.
