••Store hot food only after it has cooled in order to prevent dew or frost.
••When storing food in the freezer compartment, set the freezer temperature lower than the temperature indicated on the appliance.
••Do not set the temperature of the appliance lower than needed. For ice making in normal climates, the freezer temperatures should be set to -18 °C or colder.
••Do not put food near the temperature sensor of the fridge compartment. Keep a distance of at least 3 cm from the sensor.
••Please note that a temperature rise after defrosting has a permissible range in the appliance specifications. If you wish to minimise the impact this may have on the food storage due to a temperature rise, seal or wrap the stored food in several layers.
••The automatic defrosting system in the appliance ensures that the compartment remains free of ice buildup under normal operating conditions.
15
Storing Foods Effectively
••Store frozen food or refrigerated food inside sealed containers.
••Check the expiration date and label (storage instructions) before storing food in the appliance.
••Do not store food for a long period of time (more than four weeks) if it spoils easily at a low temperature.
••Place the refrigerated food or frozen food in each fridge or freezer compartment immediately after purchasing.
••Avoid refreezing any food which has been completely thawed. Freezing any food which has been completely thawed again will lower its taste and nutrition.
••Do not wrap and store vegetables with newspaper. Printing material of newspaper or other foreign substances may smear and contaminate food.
••Do not overfill the appliance. Fill less than 70 % of the space. Cold air can not circulate properly if the appliance is overfilled.
••Cool hot food before storing. If too much hot food is placed inside, the internal temperature of the appliance can increase and negatively affect other foods stored in the appliance.
••If you set an excessively low temperature for food, it may become frozen. Do not set a temperature lower than the required temperature for the food to be stored correctly.
••Always keep the appliance clean.
EN
••If there are chill compartments in the appliance, do not store vegetables and fruits with higher moisture content in the chill compartments as they may freeze due to the lower temperature.
••In the event of a blackout, call the electricity company and ask how long it is going to last.
−−You should avoid opening the doors, while the power is off.
−−When the power supply gets back to normal, check the condition of the food.
Max Freezing Capacity
