CHAPTER 1.
BEFORE USING YOUR FRIDGE
Information on No-Frost Technology
No-frost fridges differ from other static fridges in their
operating principle.
In normal fridges, the humidity entering the fridge in the door openings and the humidity of the food causes freezing in the freezer department. To defrost the snow and ice in the freezer department, you should turn off the fridge, take the f o o d that need s to be kep t in a constant temperature off the fridge, and remove the ice gathered in the freezer department periodically.
The situation is completely different in no-frost fridges. Dr y and cold air is blow ed to the fridg e and freez er departments homo geneously from several po ints via a blower fan . Cold air dispe rsed homog eneo u sly even betw een the she lves cools all you r food equ ally and uniformly, thus prevents humidity and freezing.
Therefore your no-frost fridge allows you ease of use, besides its huge volume and stylish appearance.
Safety Instructions

W hen transporting and installing the unit care must be taken to ensure that none of the refrigeration circuit components become damaged. In the event of damage avoid naked flames or ignition sources and ventilate the room in which the unit is placed for a few minutes.
