Positioning the door shelves
To permit storage of food
packages of various sizes,
the door shelves can be
placed at different heights.
Gradually pull the shelf in
the direction of the arrows
until it comes free, then re-
position as required.
Important! Do not move the big lower door shelf to
ensure correct air circulation.
Helpful hints and tips
Hints for energy saving
• Do not open the door frequently or leave it open lon-
ger than absolutely necessary.
• If the ambient temperature is high and the Tempera-
ture Regulator is set to low temperature and the ap-
pliance is fully loaded, the compressor may run con-
tinuously, causing frost or ice on the evaporator. If
this happens, set the Temperature Regulator toward
warmer settings to allow automatic defrosting and so
a saving in electricity consumption.
Hints for fresh food refrigeration
To obtain the best performance:
• do not store warm food or evaporating liquids in the
refrigerator
• do cover or wrap the food, particularly if it has a
strong flavour
• position food so that air can circulate freely around it
Hints for refrigeration
Useful hints:
Meat (all types) : wrap in polythene bags and place on
the glass shelf above the vegetable drawer.
For safety, store in this way only one or two days at the
most.
Cooked foods, cold dishes, etc..: these should be cov-
ered and may be placed on any shelf.
Fruit and vegetables: these should be thoroughly
cleaned and placed in the special drawer(s) provided.
Butter and cheese: these should be placed in special
airtight containers or wrapped in aluminium foil or poly-
thene bags to exclude as much air as possible.
Milk bottles: these should have a cap and should be
stored in the bottle rack on the door.
Bananas, potatoes, onions and garlic, if not packed,
must not be kept in the refrigerator.
Hints for temperature inside the fridge
A suitable temperature in-
side the fridge is approx.
+5°C. When the tempera-
ture regulator is set to
+5°C this represents the
mean temperature in the
fridge. It is normal with
higher temperature in the
top of the fridge and lower
temperature in the lower part. If the temperature regula-
tor is set to a cold temperature, the ambient tempera-
ture is high or if the fridge is fully loaded the compres-
sor will run for a longer time. This results in colder tem-
perature in the lower part of the fridge due to the cold
air that falls down. It may result in that food with high
water content start to freeze. If too cold, change to a
higher temperature setting.
Important! Do not place food against or close to the
temperature sensor (A) or any shelves towards the
water drain hole. This can result in too cold
temperatures.
If you want to check the temperature of food stored in
the refrigerator, place a glass of water centrally in the
cabinet, and put a proper thermometer with an accura-
cy of +/– 1°C into it. After 6 hours the temperature can
be monitored. The measuring shall be performed under
steady-stated conditions (without changing the load).
