Werecommend,however,amediumposition.
Chiller system
No Frost
TheNoFrostsystemcirculatescoldaircontinuouslytocollect
humidityandpreventiceandfrostformation.Thesystemmaintains
anoptimal humiditylevel inthe compartment,preserving the
originalquality ofthe food,preventing thefood fromsticking
togetherandmakingdefrostingathingofthepast.Donotblock
theaerationcellsbyplacingfoodorcontainersindirectcontact
