Using the refrigerator
The refrigerator conserves fresh foodstuffs. The freezer compartment conserves
frozen foodstuffs and freezes fresh foodstuffs.
A
NOTICE!
•
Do not place any electrical devices inside the cooler. The
only exceptions are devices approved for the purpose by the
manufacturer.
•
Ensure that food or liquids in glass containers are not excessively
refrigerated. Liquids expand when they freeze and can therefore
destroy glass containers.
•
Food may only be stored in its original packaging or in suitable
containers.
•
Make sure that you only put items in the cooler which may be kept at
the selected temperature.
I
NOTE
•
Before starting your new refrigerator for the first time, you should
clean it inside and outside with a damp cloth for hygienic reasons
(please also refer to the chapter "Cleaning and maintenance" on
page 27).
•
Do not use force to press the flap of the freezer.
•
Do not pull out the dividing wall if there is ice in the freezer.
Do not remove the sticker which covers the control element (fig. 4,
•
page 3).

Energy saving tips
•
Choose a well ventilated location which is protected from direct sunlight.
•
Allow hot food to cool down first before you put it in the refrigerator.
•
Do not open the refrigerator more often than necessary.
•
Do not leave the door open for longer than necessary. If the door is left open for
more than 5 minutes, the light starts to flash.

Defrost your refrigerator as soon as a layer of ice forms.

Avoid unnecessarily low temperature settings.
