.
• Vegetables like tomatoes, potatoes,
onions, and garlic should not be kept in
the refrigerator.
• Butter and cheese: place in an airtight
container or wrap in an aluminium foil or a
polythene bag to exclude as much air as
possible.
• Bottles: close them with a cap and place
them on the door bottle shelf, or (if
available) on the bottle rack.
• Always refer to the expiry date of the
products to know how long to keep them.
2. Regularly check the door seals and wipe
them clean to ensure they are clean and
free from debris.
3. Rinse and dry thoroughly.
7.3 Defrosting of the refrigerator
Defrosting of the fridge compartment is
automatic. The water that condenses flows
into a recipient on the compressor and
evaporates. The recipient cannot be
removed.
7.4 Defrosting of the freezer
The freezer compartment is frost free. This
means that there is no build up of frost when
it is in operation, neither on the internal walls,
nor on the foods.
7.5 Installing and replacing the
CleanAir+ filter
The CleanAir+ filter is an activated carbon
filter that absorbs bad odours and allows you
to preserve the best flavour and aroma for all
foodstuffs without risk of odour cross-
contamination.
Handle the air filter carefully to avoid
scratching its surface.
On delivery, the air filter is in a plastic
bag to preserve performance.
Install the air filter before activating the
appliance.
