HINTS AND TIPS
HINTS FOR ENERGY SAVING
• Most efficient use of energy is ensured in the
configuration with the drawers in the bottom
part of the appliance and shelves evenly
distributed. Position of the door bins does not
affect energy consumption.
• Do not open the door frequently or leave it open
longer than necessary.
• Do not set too high temperature to save energy
unless it is required by the characteristics of the
food.
• If the ambient temperature is high and the
temperature control is set to low temperature
and the appliance is fully loaded, the
compressor may run continuously, causing frost
or ice formation on the evaporator. In this case,
set the temperature control toward higher
temperature to allow automatic defrosting and
to save energy this way.
• Ensure a good ventilation. Do not cover the
ventilation grilles or holes.
HINTS FOR FRESH FOOD REFRIGERATION
• The medium temperature setting ensures good
preservation of fresh food.
Higher temperature setting inside the appliance
may lead to shorter shelf life of food.
• Cover the food with packaging to preserve its
freshness and aroma.
• Always use closed containers for liquids and for
food, to avoid flavours or odours in the
compartment.
• To avoid the cross-contamination between
cooked and raw food, cover the cooked food
and separate it from the raw one.
• It is recommended to defrost the food inside the
fridge.
• Do not insert hot food inside the appliance.
Make sure it has cooled down at room
temperature before inserting it.
• To prevent food waste the new stock of food
should always be placed behind the old one.
HINTS FOR FOOD REFRIGERATION
• Fresh food compartment is the one marked (on
the rating plate) with .
• Meat (all types): wrap in a suitable packaging
and place it on the glass shelf above the
vegetable drawer. Store meat for at most 1-2
days.
• Fruit and vegetables: clean thoroughly (eliminate
the soil) and place in a special drawer
(vegetable drawer).
• It is advisable not to keep the exotic fruits like
bananas, mangos, papayas etc. in the
refrigerator.
• 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.
• In order to accelerate cooling down of the
goods, it is advisable to turn on the fan. The
activation of DYNAMICAIR allows greater
homogenization of internal temperatures.
• Always refer to the expiry date of the products
to know how long to keep them.
CARE AND CLEANING
WARNING! Refer to Safety chapters.
CLEANING THE INTERIOR
Before using the appliance for the first time, the
interior and all internal accessories should be
washed with lukewarm water and some neutral
soap to remove the typical smell of a brand-new
product, then dried thoroughly.

evaporator of the refrigerator compartment during
normal use. The defrost water drains out through a
trough into a special container at the back of the
appliance, over the motor compressor, where it
evaporates.
It is important to periodically clean the defrost water
drain hole in the middle of the refrigerator
compartment channel to prevent the water
overflowing and dripping onto the food inside.
