2.7 Interior Accessories Various glass or plastic storage shelves are included with your appliance – different models have different combinations. You should always slide one of the full-size glass storage shelves into the lowest set of guides, above the fruit and vegetable container (crisper), and keep it in this position. To do this, pull the storage shelf forward until it can be swiveled upwards or downwards and removed. Do the same in reverse to insert the shelf at a different height.

Setting “Off”：Unit Off Setting “Min”：Less Cool Temperature Setting “Med”：Normal Operation (adequate for most situations) Setting “Max”：Coolest Temperature During high ambient temperatures, e.g., on hot summer days, it may be necessary to set the thermostat to the Coolest setting (position “Max”).
5. CLEANING 5.1 Cleaning the Interior and Exterior of the Unit Remove all the shelves and the crisper. To remove the crisper, first remove the lower door shelf. Wipe the inside of the unit with a weak solution of bicarbonate of soda and then rinse with warm water using a wrung-out sponge or cloth. Wipe completely dry before replacing the shelves and crisper. To clean the stainless steel doors, use a product specifically made to clean this material.
6. MAINTENANCE 6.1 Defrosting This appliance combines a manual defrost freezer compartment and an automatic defrost refrigerator compartment. The refrigerator compartment defrosts itself, but when frost builds to ¼ inch in the freezer compartment, you should defrost it carefully according to this procedure: 1. Remove contents from the freezer, taking care that frozen items do not begin to thaw. Set the temperature selector knob to “Off”. 2. Unplug the appliance.
7. TROUBLESHOOTING The following simple issues can be handled by the user.
8. TIPS FOR ENERGY SAVING Try not to open the doors too often, especially when the weather is damp and hot. Once you open a door, close it as soon as possible. Every now and then check if the appliance is sufficiently ventilated (adequate air circulation behind the appliance).

Before loading the appliance with packages of fresh food, make sure they are cooled to ambient temperature.
