BEFORE USING THE APPLIANCE
Information about New Generation Cooling
Technology
Fridges with new-generation cooling technology have a
different operating system to static fridges. Other (static) fridges
may experience a build up of ice in the freezer compartment
due to door openings and humidity in the food. In such fridges,
regular defrosting is required; the fridge must be switched
off, the frozen food moved to a suitable container and the ice
which has formed in the freezer compartment removed.
In fridges with new-generation cooling technology, a fan
blows dry cold air evenly throughout the fridge and freezer
compartments. The cold air cools your food evenly and
uniformly, preventing humidity and ice build-up.
In the refrigerator compartment, air blown by the fan, located
at the top of the refrigerator compartment, is cooled while
passing through the gap behind the air duct. At the same time,
the air is blown out through the holes in the air duct, evenly
spreading cool air throughout the refrigerator compartment.
There is no air passage between the freezer and refrigerator
compartments, therefore preventing the mixing of odors.
As a result, your fridge, with new-generation cooling
technology, provides you with ease of use as well as a huge
volume and aesthetic appearance.
