6. SUGGESTIONS AND USEFUL TIPS

Tips on energy saving
- Try to avoid keeping the door open for a long period of time to save energy.
- Keep the refrigerator away from heat sources (direct sunlight, electric ovens or cookers,
etc.).
- Do not set the temperature colder than necessary.
- Do not store hot food or steaming liquid in the refrigerator.
- Place the refrigerator in a well-ventilated and free-from-moisture room.
- If the refrigerator has the correct combination of drawers and shelves, do not modify it, as
it has been designed to offer the most efficient energy setting.
Tips for cooling fresh food
- Do not place hot food directly in the refrigerator, as the interior temperature will increase,
straining the compressor and spending more energy.
- Cover or wrap food, especially if it has a strong smell.
- Place food correctly so air can flow freely around it.
Refrigeration tips
- Wrap and place the meat on the glass shelf on top of the Crisper drawer. Always respect
storage time and consume it according to the recommended expiration date.
- Cooked food, cool dishes, etc. must always be covered and can be placed on any shelf.
- Fruits and vegetables must be preserved in the crisper drawer.
- Butter and cheese must be wrapped in airtight plastic or plastic film.
- Milk bottles must have a cap and must be preserved in the door shelves.
Freezing tips
- When turning the refrigerator on for the first time or if you use it after a long period of time,
leave the refrigerator to work for at least 2 hours with the highest settings before storing
any food.
- Prepare food in small portions so they are frozen evenly and quickly. This way, you will also
be able to defrost just the necessary amount.

(recommended to be consumed that same day,
preferably no more than 3 days).
Red wine, white wine, sparkling wine, etc.
- Wrap the food in aluminium foil or cling film so that the food remains airtight.
- Do not allow defrosted fresh food to come in contact with already frozen food to avoid the
temperature of the latter to increase.
- If food is consumed immediately after removing it from the freezer compartment, it may
cause ice burns to the skin.
- It is recommended to label and place a date in each frozen food to keep track of the storage
time.
Tips for preserving frozen food
- Check that the food is suitable for freezing.
- Once defrosted, food will deteriorate quickly and should not be frozen again. Do not exceed
the storage time indicated in food packages.
Turning off the refrigerator
If it were necessary to turn off the refrigerator for a long period of time, you should follow
these steps to prevent fungus or mould from forming.
1. Remove all the food.
2. Unplug the device from the mains supply.
3. Clean and dry the interior completely.
4. Make sure all doors are slightly open to allow air flow.

7. CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE

For hygienic reasons, the refrigerator should be cleaned regularly at least every two months.

The refrigerator cannot be connected to the mains during cleaning, as there is a risk of electric
shock. Before cleaning it, turn off the refrigerator and unplug it from the mains.
Exterior cleaning
