• To reduce humidity and the consequent increase in frost, never place liquids in unsealed
containers in the fridge compartment. Frost tends to concentrate in the coldest parts of
the evaporating liquid and in time will more frequent defrosting will be required.
• Never place warm food in the refrigerator. Warm food should be allowed to cool at room
temperature and should be arranged to ensure adequate air circulation in the refrigerator
compartment.
• Nothing should touch the back wall of the appliance as it will cause frost and the
packages can stick on the back wall. Do not open the refrigerator door too frequently.
• Arrange meat and cleaned fish (wrapped in packages or sheets of plastic) which you
intend to use in 1-2 days, in the bottom section of the fridge compartment.
• Store fruit and vegetable items loose in the crisper containers.
To avoid contamination of food, please respect the following instructions:
• Opening the door for long periods can cause a significant increase of the temperature in
the compartments of the appliance.
• Clean regularly surfaces that can come in contact with food and accessible drainage
systems.
• Clean water tanks if they have not been used for 48 h; flush the water system connected
to a water supply if water has not been drawn for 5 days.
• Store raw meat and fish in suitable containers in the refrigerator, so that it is not in
contact with or drip onto other food.
• Two-star frozen-food compartments are suitable for storing pre-frozen food, storing or
making ice cream and making ice cubes.
• One, two and three star compartments are not suitable for the freezing of fresh food.
• If the refrigerating appliance is left empty for long periods, switch off, defrost, clean, dry,
and leave the door open to prevent mould developing within the appliance.
• For normal working conditions, it will be sufficient to adjust the temperature setting of
your refrigerator to +4 °C.
• The temperature of the fridge compartment should be in the range of 0-8 °C, fresh foods
below 0 °C are iced and rotted, bacterial load increases above 8 °C, and spoils.
• Do not put hot food in the refrigerator immediately, wait for the temperature to pass
outside. Hot foods increase the degree of your refrigerator and cause food poisoning and
unnecessary spoiling of the food.
• Meat, fish, etc. should be store in the chiller compartment of the food, and the vegetable
compartment is preferred for vegetables. (if available)
• To prevent cross contamination, meat products and fruit vegetables are not stored
together.
• Foods should be placed in the refrigerator in closed containers or covered
