OPERATION
ENGLISH
•  Note that a temperature rise after defrosting has 
a permissible range in the appliance 
specifications. If you wish to minimise the impact 
on the food storage due to a temperature rise, 
seal or wrap the stored food in several layers.
•  The automatic defrosting system in the 
appliance ensures that the compartment 
remains free of ice buildup under normal 
operating conditions.
Storing Foods Effectively
•  Food may freeze or spoil if stored at the wrong 
temperature. Set the refrigerator to the correct 
temperature for the food being stored.
•  Store frozen food or refrigerated food inside 
sealed containers.
•  Check the expiration date and label (storage 
instructions) before storing food in the 
appliance.
•  Do not store food for a long period of time if it 
spoils easily at a low temperature.
•  Do not place unfrozen food in direct contact with 
food that is already frozen. It could be necessary 
to reduce the quantity to be frozen if freezing 
every day is anticipated.
•  Place the refrigerated food or frozen food in 
each fridge or freezer compartment 
immediately after purchasing.
•  Store raw meat and fish in suitable containers in 
the refrigerator, so that it is not in contact with or 
drip onto other food.
•  Refrigerated foods and other food items can be 
stored on top of the vegetable drawer.
•  Avoid refreezing any food which has been 
completely thawed. Freezing any food which has 
been completely thawed again will lower its taste 
and nutrition.
•  Do not overfill the appliance. Cold air can not 
circulate properly if the appliance is overfilled.
•  Cool hot food before storing. If too much hot 
food is placed inside, the internal temperature of 
the appliance can increase and negatively affect 
other foods stored in the appliance.
•  If you set an excessively low temperature for 
food, it may become frozen. Do not set a 
temperature lower than the required 
temperature for the food to be stored correctly.
•  If there are chill compartments in the appliance, 
do not store vegetables and fruits with higher 
moisture content in the chill compartments as 
they may freeze due to the lower temperature.
•  In the event of a blackout, call the electricity 
company and ask how long it is going to last.
-  You should avoid door openings while the 
power is off.
-  When the power supply gets back to normal, 
check the condition of the food.
Maximum Freezing Capacity
• 
Express Freeze
 must be switched on for 7 hours 
before fresh products are placed in the freezer 
compartment.
•  To get better air circulation, insert all inner parts 
like baskets and shelves.
•  The max freezing capacity of your appliance is 
stated on the rating label inside the fridge 
compartment.
•  For maximum freezing capacity, set the freezer 
temperature to the coldest temperature setting.
Freezing the Maximum Amount 
of Food
If large quantities of food are to be stored, all the 
freezer drawers should be taken out of the 
appliance and the food should be stacked directly 
on the freezer shelves in the freezer compartment.
•  To remove the drawers, first remove the food 
from drawers and then pull out the drawers 
carefully. Not doing so could cause injury or 
damage to the drawers.
