HINTS
Hints for refrigeration
To help you use your refrigerator correctly, here are
some useful hints:
Cooked food, cold cuts, jelly, etc.: these should be
well covered and can be stored on any of the glass
shelves.
Fruit & vegetables: these should be thoroughly
cleaned and placed in the bottom drawer.
Butter & cheese: these should be placed in special
airtight containers or wrapped in aluminium foil or
polythene bags to keep out as much air as possible.
Milk bottles: these should have a top and should be
stored in the bottle rack on the door.
Raw meat (beef, pork, lamb & poultry): wrap in
polythene bags and place on top of the salad
compartment, this being the coldest spot in the
refrigerator.
Meat can only be stored safely in this way for one
or two days at the most.
Bananas, potatoes, onions and garlic, if not
packed, must not be kept in the refrigerator.
Unplug the appliance before carrying out
any maintenance operation.
Warning
This appliance contains hydrocarbons in its
cooling unit maintenance and recharging must
therefore only be carried out by authorised
technicians.
Defrosting
Frost is automatically eliminated from the evaporator
of the refrigerator compartment every time the motor
compressor stops, 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 (F) situated under the salad
drawers to prevent the water overflowing and
dripping onto the food inside. Use the special
cleaner provided (P), which you will find already
inserted into the drain hole.
