5 USING THE REFRIGERATOR COMPARTMENT
HOW TO USE THE CHILLER DRAWER
The appliance is equipped with a wide delicatessen drawer with
a temperature range from -2°C~+3°C. The temperature can be
adjusted by the air control knob to meet your storage needs.
- Turn the air control knob leftwards (weak) to reduce
the cooled air moving in the chill compartment and maintain a
temperature.
- Turn the air control knob rightwards (strong) to
increase the cooled air moving in the chill compartment and
maintain a lower temperature.
TEMTURE ADJUSTEMENT
To set the refrigerator temperature: Under the Unlock mode(the
display screen is on), the refrigerator temperature control button
(A) may be tapped. The refrigerator temperature display (G) will
glisten. Each time the refrigerator temperature control button (A)
is tapped, the display sequence is as follows:
7°C – 5°C – 3°C – 2°C – 1°C – 7°C
NO FROST SYSTEM
Thanks to NO-FROST system the temperature you don’t need to
defrost the appliance. It allows to have an homogeneous distri-
bution of air In addition to this NO FROST technology,Your
appliance is equipped with a double air curtain located at the
front end of the refrigerator compartment is intended to provide
the desired food storage by preventing invasion of warm air and
facilitating equal distribution of cooled air.
Advise:
Your refrigerator's internal temperature is closely linked to
the ambient temperature, how frequently the door is opened
and the amount and temperature of the food you have put in
your refrigerator. You must therefore check the temperature
indicator regularly and adjust the setting if necessary, as
explained above.
TEMPERATURE INDICATOR (Depending on models)
Temperature to set
Correct temperature
Attention:
Prolonged opening of the door will cause the internal
temperature to rise. You must therefore read the indica-
tor within 30 seconds of the door being opened for the
reading to be correct.
Setting the temperature
When putting your appliance into service, set the thermostat to a
medium position. Check the temperature indicator 4 hours after
putting your appliance into service, or after any change in the
thermostat setting, observe the temperature light :
- If the indicator is still black, lower the temperature gradually by
selecting a higher number around the thermostat and checking
the temperature indicator again after 4 hours. Repeat this opera-
tion as many times as necessary.
- If the indicator goes green and "OK" is indicated, the tempera-
ture in your refrigerator is correctly set.

PREPARING FOOD FOR THE REFRIGERATOR
Carefully wrap fresh foods: they will then keep their flavour,
colour, humidity content and freshness. You also avoid the taste
of some foods contaminating the taste of others. Only vegeta-
bles, fruit and salad vegetables can be stored in the vegetable
compartment without being packed. Let hot dishes and drinks
cool down outside the appliance. Remove the cardboard packs
from around yoghurt pots. Check the consume-by dates on the
products you have bought. You should not exceed these.
ARRANGING FOOD IN YOUR REFRIGERATOR
The temperature inside your refrigerator is not uniform. Some
areas are colder than others and you must store your food in the
appropriate areas according to their type to ensure that they can
be kept safely.
Leave a space between the food items to allow the air to circu-
late freely and avoid different products contaminating each other.
Do not put packages and food in contact with the wall at the back
of the appliance, this is a particularly cold and damp area of the
appliance and water droplets and frost condense there as part of
your refrigerator's normal operation.
The coldest area, indicated by the logo, is designed for delicate,
sensitive and highly perishable food: meat, poultry, fish, cooked
meats, prepared dishes, ready-made salads, egg or cream-
based dishes and pastries, fresh pasta, pastry, pizza/quiches,
fresh produce and raw milk cheese, ready-to-use vegetables
sold in plastic bags and, more generally, any fresh product
whose consume-by date is linked to its storage at a temperature
of +4°C or below.
