food storage in the appliance

REFRIGERATOR COMPARTMENT

The refrigerator compartment is used for storing fresh food for a few days.
• Do not place food in direct contact with the rear wall of the refrigerator compartment. Leave some space around the food to allow
the air to circulate.
• Do not place hot food or evaporating liquids in the refrigerator.
• Never introduce volatile, inflammable or explosive fluids such as alcohol, acetone or petrol because of the risk of explosion.
• Always store food in closed containers or wrapped. To reduce humidity and avoid formation of frost, never place liquids in unsealed
containers in the refrigerator.
• Meat of all types, wrapped in packages, is recommended to be placed on the glass shelf just above the vegetable drawer, where the
air is cooler.
• You can put the fruits and vegetables into the vegetable drawer without the packaging.
• To avoid the cold air escaping, try not to open the door too often and not leave the door open for a long time.

FREEZER COMPARTMENT

The freezer compartment is used for freezing fresh foods and for storing frozen foods for the period of time on the packaging and for
making ice cubes.
• Do not freeze too large an amount of food at one time; the faster the food is frozen, the longer is preserves its qualities.
• Wrap and seal fresh food properly. The packaging should be air tight and shouldn't leak.
• Place frozen food in the freezer compartment as soon as possible after purchase. Make sure that it doesn't defrost during transport.
• The length of time you can keep food depends very much on the quality of the food.
• Always mark the date and the content on the pack and do not exceed the stated storage time.
• Do not store glass bottles or containers with liquids in the freezer which will freeze. The freezing may cause the bottles to break.
Highly carbonated drinks can even explode. Never keep lemonade, fruit juice, beer, wine, champagne, etc. in the freezer.
• Once the food is thawed, it must not be refrozen: you must cook it as quickly as possible in order to consume or to freeze again.
The table below gives the recommended storage times for frozen fresh foods.
Food Months
• In case of a power failure or malfunction, the freezer compartment will maintain a sufficiently low temperature for food storage.
However, avoid opening the door to slow down the temperature rise within the appliance.

cleaning & maintenance
Before cleaning the refrigerator always unplug the appliance.
Clean the interior of the appliance. Use warm water and a neutral detergent to prevent any bad smells occurring. After cleaning, rinse
the interior with clean water and rub dry. Leave the appliance to dry for 1 to 2 hours. Simply remove the shelves, drawer and door
compartments to clean them by hand. Do not clean the interior accessories in the dishwasher.
Clean the outside of the refrigerator and the gasket with a soft moist cloth.
We recommend that you dus the back of the appliance with a cloth or vacuum cleaner once a year in order to maintain a good output
and low energy consumption.
