Positioning the door shelves
To permit storage of food
packages of various
sizes, the door shelves
can be placed at different
heights.
Helpful hints and tips
Hints for energy saving
• Do not open the door frequently or leave it open
longer than absolutely necessary.
• If the ambient temperature is high, the Temperature
Regulator is on the higher setting and the appliance
is fully loaded, the compressor may run continuous-
ly, causing frost or ice on the evaporator. If this hap-
pens, turn the Temperature Regulator toward lower
settings to allow automatic defrosting and so a sav-
ing in electricity consumption.
Hints for fresh food refrigeration
To obtain the best performance:
• do not store warm food or evaporating liquids in the
refrigerator
• do cover or wrap the food, particularly if it has a
strong flavour
• position food so that air can circulate freely around
it

Hints for refrigeration
Useful hints:
Meat (all types) : wrap in polythene bags and place on
the glass shelf above the vegetable drawer.
For safety, store in this way only one or two days at the
most.
Cooked foods, cold dishes, etc..: these should be cov-
ered and may be placed on any shelf.
Fruit and vegetables: these should be thoroughly
cleaned and placed in the special drawer(s) provided.
Butter and cheese: these should be placed in special
airtight containers or wrapped in aluminium foil or pol-
ythene bags to exclude as much air as possible.
Milk bottles: these should have a cap and should be
stored in the bottle rack on the door.
Bananas, potatoes, onions and garlic, if not packed,
must not be kept in the refrigerator.
