Defrosting
The fridge defrosts automatically
The rear wall of the fridge covers with frost when the compressor is
running, and defrosts when the compressor is off. The water from the
thawing frost evaporates by itself.
Correct storage
For physical reasons, there are different temperature regions in the
fridge. The coldest region is on the lowest storage shelf. Warmer
regions are the top storage shelf, the vegetable drawer and the storage
compartments on the door.
The length of storage time depends on the type of food - see manu-
facturer’s instructions.
Tip: Food in the fridge should always be covered or packaged, to pre-
vent drying and tainting of other food.
The following are suited for packaging:
– Polyethylene airtight bags and wraps;
– Plastic containers with lids;
– Special plastic covers with elastic;
– aluminium foil.
Variable Storage Box
Some models are equipped with a variable stor-
age box which is fitted under a door shelf com-
partment and can be slid sideways.
The variable box can be hung from a
storage shelf in the refrigerator com-
partment:
☞
1. Pull the storage shelf forward until it
can be tipped up or down and removed.
2. Hang the retaining bracket on the taper
on the storage shelf and slide the stor-
age shelf back into the guides.
