• Never put liquids in the refrigerator uncovered.
• Never put hot foods in the refrigerator. Warm food should
be allowed to cool to room temperature before being put
into the refrigerator.
• Nothing should rest against the rear wall of the refrigerator,
as this will cause frost and possible condensation problems
which will be difficult to remove.
• Make sure food is clean and any extra water is wiped away
before putting into the fridge.
• Wrap or cover food before putting into the fridge. This will
help prevent the loss of moisture, keep food fresh and avoid
unpleasant odors.
• Sort foods prior to storing. Any foods to be used soon should
be stored at the front of the shelf to prevent deterioration
caused by the door being open for prolonged periods.
• Do not overfill the fridge. There should be sufficient space
between the foods to allow the cool air to circulate.
• Thawing frozen foods in the fridge compartment will help to
keep the temperature low and save energy.
• Never store raw meats on shelves above cooked meats
or other produce. This will help to prevent juices from raw
meat contaminating other foodstuffs.
Storage
The fridge is for short term food storage. Although low
temperatures can be maintained, extended periods of food
storage is not recommended.
As the cold air circulates within the fridge, the temperature can
vary between the different sections. As such, foods should be
stored in different sections according to type. Sections 6 and 7
are the coldest parts of the fridge.

1. Butter, cheeses etc.
2. Food in jars and bottles
3. Drinks, e.g. milk
4. Cooked food
5. Yogurts, preserves etc.
6. 75cl bottles or ready meals etc.
7. Fresh meat and fish
8. Fruit and vegetables
The most energy-saving configuration requires drawers, food
box and shelves to be positioned in the product, please refer
to the above pictures.
The fridge shelves can be moved according to the storage
requirements within the fridge section. To move the shelf, lift up
the rear section and then pull it outwards. To replace, slide the
shelf back into the slot, and then lower the rear section.
The wine racks can be deployed or withdrawn as desired.

• It's suggested to set the temperature at 4°C in the fridge
compartment.
• For most food categories, the longest storage time in the
fridge compartment is achieved with colder temperatures.
Since some particular products (as fresh fruits and
vegetables) may be damaged with colder temperatures, it
is suggested to keep them in the crisper drawers, whenever
present. If not present, maintain an average setting of the
thermostat
