should be taken out and the food
should be placed onto the wire/glass
shelves. Net volume and energy
consumption information declared in

drawers in the cooler department
and the ice bucket, which is easily
removable by hand.
• Food packages should not be in direct
contact with the heat sensor located
in the cooler compartment. The food
should be 10 cm away from the sensor.
In case of contact with the sensor,
